As a Chinese prodigy plucking at traditions of the 2\,000-year-old guzheng\, Wu Fei anticipated a career performing only state-sanctioned work. Both women chose a different path. Washburn traded briefcases for banjos and built bridges with groundbreaking tours of China. Wu’s global explorations led her to pick bluegrass with Washburn\, who’s now her Nashville neighbor. In 2020\, these simpatico sisters from two misters released an album of impressionistic intercultural folk that spans Appalachian hills to Xinjiang prairies. Wu and Washburn’s brave\, intimate\, multilingual collaboration offers a compassionate commingling of continents in divisive times—magnifying the beauty and humanity of experiences that transcend traditions or tongues. \n\n\n\nPerformance Support from\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind out how you can support Purdue Convocations performances.

Due to COVID-19 related complications\, the U.S. tour has been cancelled.  While the Convocations team is currently working to reschedule the performance for a future date\, all tickets purchased for the performance will be refunded automatically. \n\n\n\nIf you purchased with a credit card\, the credit should appear on your billing statement within the next 7-10 business days. Any payments made by cash or check will be refunded via university check and mailed to the current address on file within the next 30 days.  Call (765) 494-3933 for more information. \n\n\n\nWhat if data were a dance partner? Dökk is a daring\, dynamic journey into the subconscious\, the latest expression of artistry through emerging digital technology from Italy’s fuse*. Named after the Icelandic word for “darkness\,” Dökk uses software to synthesize real-time data from four simultaneous sources: Dökk’s musical score; the movement of performer / choreographer Elena Annovi; her heartbeat; and emotional analysis of social media trends at that very moment. This data mashup is vividly visualized through a stunning 3D projection environment. As these data sources shift and change\, each performance of Dökk becomes one-of-a-kind—evoking life’s own random\, unforeseeable whims. Both experimental and empirical\, Dökk illuminates the invisible connections among us all in an intimate\, immersive fusion of light\, sound\, space and movement. \n\n\n\n\nAn unexpected synesthesia of pure cognitive escape.— Exibart \n\n\n\n\nThis engagement with fuse* is a continuation of Purdue Convocations’ Innovator-In-Residence platform—a forum for the investigation of new works that examine\, question and propose ideas in the fluid nexus where humanity and technology intersect. This production further extends the discussion of real-time interactivity from our previous engagement in this series\, the AI-driven musical improvisation of Shimon Robot and Friends—which Convocations presented in February of 2017. \n\n\n\nPROTECT PURDUE POLICIES URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/dokk/ LOCATION:Loeb Playhouse\, 128 Memorial Mall\, West Lafayette\, IN\, 47907\, United States CATEGORIES:Ideas,Innovative ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/X2Fuse1920x600.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu GEO:40.42508;-86.912651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Loeb Playhouse 128 Memorial Mall West Lafayette IN 47907 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=128 Memorial Mall:geo:-86.912651,40.42508 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20220130T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20220130T150000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20211008T010000Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220127T162520Z UID:10000282-1643554800-1643554800@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Geneva Lewis DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in New Zealand but raised in the United States\, young violinist Geneva Lewis emits passion for classical music on- and off-stage. Lewis debuted onstage as an 11-year-old prodigy for the Pasadena Symphony. Whether performing solo or as part of the Callisto Trio\, Lewis has since earned national accolades for her musical prowess\, having mastered such pieces as Béla Bartók’s Violin Sonata No. 1\, Paul Schoenfeld’s Four Souvenirs\, and Georg Philip Telemann’s Fantasia No. 7 in E flat major. Lewis’s current concert violin is a Stradivarius believed to have been crafted in 1714. She also engages with communities to promote music education—inspiring children to pick up the violin bow and\, perhaps someday\, experience the thrill of standing ovations like those that often greet her performances. \n\n\n\nProgram\n\n\n\nClaude Debussy — Violin Sonata [14’] \n\n\n\nI.

Hits like “Mrs. Robinson\,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water” and “Homeward Bound” fueled album sales to the tune of 100 million. And it wasn’t just the Empire State: Your mother or father probably wore out a vinyl copy of Sounds of Silence. Through artful image projection\, rare photos and video\, and a live band performing timeless tunes\, The Simon & Garfunkel Story presents a multimedia experience that culminates with the duo’s 1981 Central Park reunion concert—one of the largest in history with more than a half-million fans singing along. The Simon & Garfunkel Story ensures audiences can do the same 40 years later.\n\n \n\nPROTECT PURDUE POLICIES\n\n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/the-simon-and-garfunkel-story/ LOCATION:Loeb Playhouse\, 128 Memorial Mall\, West Lafayette\, IN\, 47907\, United States CATEGORIES:Broadway & Musicals,Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/1920x600-3.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu GEO:40.42508;-86.912651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Loeb Playhouse 128 Memorial Mall West Lafayette IN 47907 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=128 Memorial Mall:geo:-86.912651,40.42508 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20220121T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20220121T200000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20211008T010053Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220824T223555Z UID:10000354-1642795200-1642795200@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Joshua Redman Quartet DESCRIPTION:“Unparalleled among horn players today” – JazzTimes\nWhat began as a brief detour into Brooklyn’s jazz scene for Joshua Redman blossomed into 30 years of ceaseless innovation\, acclaimed recording and passionate performance. Boasting influences that range from John Coltrane and Ornette Coleman to Prince and the Police\, Redman has forged a signature saxophone sound as provocative and forward-looking as it is hard-swinging and soulful. Propelled by bassist Reuben Rogers\, drummer Gregory Hutchinson and pianist Aaron Goldberg\, Redman’s Grammy®-nominated namesake quartet generates a tight and joyous onstage alchemy\, most recently captured on its 2019 album\, Come What May. The quartet’s performance represents Convocations’ kick-off contribution to the 2022 Purdue Jazz Festival\, a Purdue University Bands event that brings more than 2\,500 middle- and high-school students to campus for clinics and concerts. \n\n\n\n \n\nPROTECT PURDUE POLICIES\n\n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/joshua-redman-quartet/ LOCATION:Loeb Playhouse\, 128 Memorial Mall\, West Lafayette\, IN\, 47907\, United States CATEGORIES:Jazz,Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/1920x600.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu GEO:40.42508;-86.912651 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Loeb Playhouse 128 Memorial Mall West Lafayette IN 47907 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=128 Memorial Mall:geo:-86.912651,40.42508 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20211210T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20211211T235959 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210802T040017Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260420T205755Z UID:10000331-1639094400-1639267199@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Manual Cinema's Christmas Carol DESCRIPTION:The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart\n\n\n\n\n\nTeaser \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n \n ABOUT The Strange Undoing of Prudencia Hart\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCharles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol remains a holiday staple\, its empathetic idea of a life well lived indelibly woven into our cultural fabric.

That’s where the similarities end. Mucca Pazza’s original genre-bending compositions are inspired by everything from surf rock to Stravinsky. Then there are the brightly colored\, mismatched thrift-shop get-ups\, a squad of absurdist cheerleaders\, and implausible instrumentation that includes electric guitars\, accordions\, violins and even a cello. A darling of Chicago’s underground music scene since 2004\, Mucca Pazza has performed at Lollapalooza\, Lincoln Center\, the Montreal Jazz Fest and NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series. At Purdue\, this merry band of misfits will roam campus\, providing a variety of free pop-up performances at different spaces. Fusing DIY punk aesthetics\, Balkan brass and marching-band maximalism\, Mucca Pazza presents an eminently danceable embrace of the absurd. \n\n\n\n\n\nPerformances Times and Locations\n\n\n\nThursday\, September 9 \n\n\n\n\nKrach Lawn 11:45 AM\nPurdue Bell Tower 1:15 PM\nMemorial Mall 2:30 PM\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, September 10 \n\n\n\n\nPurdue Bell Tower 4:20 PM\nPurdue Arch at Grant and State 5:20 PM\nGreyhouse Coffee plaza (Northwestern and State) 6:20 PM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\nPROTECT PURDUE POLICIES \n\n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/mucca-pazza/ LOCATION:Indiana CATEGORIES:Innovative,Music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Mucca-Pazza-header.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210825 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210827 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210802T040058Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210902T195530Z UID:10000337-1629849600-1630022399@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Hand to Hand DESCRIPTION:…surreal and poetic.” – USA Today \nSquonk Opera’s Hand to Hand is a magnum opus of music\, mischief and marvelous stagecraft. Rigged like a sailing ship and sized like a house\, two giant puppet hands propel this outdoor spectacle alongside a live performance of propulsive progressive rock from Squonk Opera. For 25 years\, these Pittsburgh post-industrialists have fused music\, design\, science and art to bring people face to face in festive ways that The New York Times has called “ingenious\, hallucinatory and hypnotic.” Indeed\, the only things heavy-handed here are the massive mitts\, which audience members can even help manipulate to become part of the fun. This timely\, boisterous extravaganza of comic invention\, fantastic jams and shared experience is a show of hands that’s larger than life. \n\n SUPPORT THIS FREE PERFORMANCE \nPROTECT PURDUE POLICIES URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/hand-to-hand/ LOCATION:Purdue Memorial Mall\, West Lafayette\, IN\, 47907\, United States CATEGORIES:Music,Theatre ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Squonk-header.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu GEO:40.4401775;-86.9261008 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210426T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210426T193000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210205T181445Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210210T223823Z UID:10000324-1619465400-1619465400@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Live from Emmet's Place DESCRIPTION:Since March of 2020\, the rising star Cohen\, who is the current American Pianists Association’s (APA) Cole Porter Fellow in Jazz\, has been holding forth every Monday night with his Live From Emmet’s Place webcast featuring his long-time bandmates Russell Hall (bass) and Kyle Poole (drums).

The Indiana-raised Mexican-American singer-songwriter picked up a guitar at the age of 11 and never looked back. His success began when he had 3000 followers on SoundCloud and his friend paid him $30 to upload his music to streaming services. His single “Ugotme” quickly gained traction · and to date has accumulated over 30 million streams in the US across all platforms. \nAfter two back-to-back sold-out headlining tours · memorable festival appearances at Camp Flog Gnaw and Lollapalooza · and a network television debut on Late Night with Seth Meyers · the now 23-year-old Apollo has transitioned from the freeform D.I.Y. creativity of those beloved earlier records towards a more focused development of his sound. He’s making deeper connections between his music and his Latin roots while laboring over each song in ways he never would’ve before. Part redefinition · part enhancement · the autobiographical new material he’s been working on for his upcoming projects promises to bring him to another level in his career. \n  \n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/omar-apollo/ LOCATION:Indiana CATEGORIES:hip hop,Music,Student Concert Committee ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Apollo-header-1-1.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210419T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210419T193000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210205T181337Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210210T222756Z UID:10000323-1618860600-1618860600@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Live from Emmet's Place DESCRIPTION:Since March of 2020\, the rising star Cohen\, who is the current American Pianists Association’s (APA) Cole Porter Fellow in Jazz\, has been holding forth every Monday night with his Live From Emmet’s Place webcast featuring his long-time bandmates Russell Hall (bass) and Kyle Poole (drums).

Buckley\, Jr. were invited to The Cambridge University Union to debate the resolution “The American Dream is at the Expense of The American Negro.” The result was a provocative and profoundly relevant confrontation between Baldwin\, one of the most powerful figures of the civil rights movement\, and Buckley\, often considered the father of 20th Century patrician conservatism. Building on its history of staging unconventional texts\, New York-based ensemble Elevator Repair Service (ERS) will present the debate verbatim in a special video preview of this new work. As a more intimate and personal counterpoint to the debate\, the final scene features a brief\, imagined reunion between Baldwin and his close friend and confidante Lorraine Hansberry\, who died only weeks before the debate. \nThe piece was conceived in late 2019 by long-time ERS company member Greig Sargeant. In the many months since those early conversations\, the subject of the debate has only become more urgent. With both 1965 and 2021 in mind\, Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge – through a starkly simple design and an acting style that favors intimacy over impersonation – presents the debate as real\, immediate\, and of this moment. \n  \n  \n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/baldwin-and-buckley-at-cambridge/ LOCATION:Indiana CATEGORIES:Theatre,Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/bnb1920x600.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210412T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210412T193000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210205T181229Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210210T223744Z UID:10000322-1618255800-1618255800@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Live from Emmet's Place DESCRIPTION:Since March of 2020\, the rising star Cohen\, who is the current American Pianists Association’s (APA) Cole Porter Fellow in Jazz\, has been holding forth every Monday night with his Live From Emmet’s Place webcast featuring his long-time bandmates Russell Hall (bass) and Kyle Poole (drums).

He conceived the ensemble and the musical approach in a way that still serves as both a foundation and a point of departure today. And yet\, Haydn is too often regarded as an opening act; pleasant appetizer music before the main course of a concert program. The St. Lawrence String Quartet\, the current ensemble-in-residence at Stanford University\, proposes a fresh look at that musical menu. In The Haydn Discovery Experience\, first violinist Geoff Nuttall and his ensemble colleagues will reveal Haydn’s genius in an active-listening journey filled with history and musical insights focused on the Quartet in G minor\, Opus 20\, No. 3 that will prepare you for a close listen to a performance that was beautifully captured at Stanford’s Bing Hall. This special engagement serves as their third “visit” to Purdue\, and comes directly on the heels of their 30th anniversary season and the release of their new “in-your-face exhilarating” (Los Angeles Times) recording featuring all six of the Haydn Opus 20 quartets. \nCLICK FOR PROGRAM NOTES\nProgram\nString Quartet in G minor\, Op.20\, No.3 (1772)\nAllegro con spirito\nMenuetto: Allegretto\nPoco Adagio\n Allegro di molto \n  \n  URL:https://convocations.purdue.edu/event/st-lawrence-string-quartet/ LOCATION:Indiana CATEGORIES:Chamber,Music,Virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://convocations.purdue.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/slsq1920x600.png ORGANIZER;CN="Purdue Convocations":MAILTO:convos@purdue.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210322T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Indiana/Indianapolis:20210322T193000 DTSTAMP:20260515T000725 CREATED:20210205T180820Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210210T223459Z UID:10000319-1616441400-1616441400@convocations.purdue.edu SUMMARY:Live from Emmet's Place DESCRIPTION:Since March of 2020\, the rising star Cohen\, who is the current American Pianists Association’s (APA) Cole Porter Fellow in Jazz\, has been holding forth every Monday night with his Live From Emmet’s Place webcast featuring his long-time bandmates Russell Hall (bass) and Kyle Poole (drums).

Alice Waters\, chef & food activist DESCRIPTION:In this event\, acclaimed choreographer Mark Morris will engage in an interactive conversation about the arts\, music\, and food with chef and food activist\, Alice Waters. The conversation will be moderated by journalist Paula Zahn. After having brought his Mark Morris Dance Group to Purdue in the spring of 2016\, Morris is no stranger to Purdue audiences or dance audiences around the world. The conversation will run approximately one hour and will also consist of a live chat function where attendees will be able to post their questions for the panelists in hopes of having them discussed live during the event. \nAbout the panelists:\nMark Morris\, praised as “the most successful and influential choreographer alive\, and indisputably the most musical” (The New York Times)\, was born in Seattle\, Washington\, where he studied with Verla Flowers and Perry Brunson. In the early years of his career\, he performed with the companies of Lar Lubovitch\, Hannah Kahn\, Laura Dean\, Eliot Feld\, and the Koleda Balkan Dance Ensemble. He formed the Mark Morris Dance Group in 1980 and has since created over 150 works for the company. Noted for his musicality\, Morris has been described as “undeviating in his devotion to music” (The New Yorker). Morris opened the Mark Morris Dance Center in Brooklyn\, New York\, in 2001 to provide a home for his company\, subsidized rental space for local artists\, community education programs for children and seniors\, and a school offering dance classes to students of all ages and levels. \nAlice Waters is a chef\, author\, food activist\, and the founder and owner of Chez Panisse Restaurant in Berkeley\, California (est. 1971). She has been a champion of local sustainable agriculture for over four decades. In 1995 she founded the Edible Schoolyard Project\, which advocates for a free regenerative school lunch for all children and a sustainable food curriculum in every public school. In 2015 she was awarded the National Humanities Medal by President Obama\, proving that eating is a political act\, and that the table is a powerful means to social justice and positive change. Alice is the author of sixteen books including her critically acclaimed memoir\, Coming to My Senses: The Making of a Counterculture Cook\, the New York Times bestsellers The Art of Simple Food I & II\, and The Edible Schoolyard: A Universal Idea. \nNine-time Emmy award-winning journalist Paula Zahn is the executive producer and host of Investigation Discovery’s On the Case with Paula Zahn and host of WNET’s weekly arts and culture multi-platform showcase\, NYC-Arts. Zahn began her journalism career in local news\, working for stations in Dallas-Fort Worth\, San Diego\, Houston\, Boston and Los Angeles. She was first introduced to national audiences as an anchor for the news segments on ABC News’ Good Morning America. She went on to host shows for CBS News\, Fox News and CNN. Zahn’s many years of reporting have not only won her the public’s trust\, but many prestigious honors\, including six Gracie Awards\, two National Headliner Awards\, and recognition of her career reportage from the Museum of Television and Radio. An accomplished cellist\, Zahn attended college on a cello scholarship. She has performed with renowned musicians in world class venues including with the New York Pops at Carnegie Hall\, the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center\, Sejong Soloists at Hoam Art Hall in Seoul and with Maestro Rostropovich in St. Petersburg\, Russia as part of the 100-cello orchestra he conducted.
