SUMMARY:Brute Force
DESCRIPTION:Born in 1940\, Monmouth University alumnus Stephen Friedland performs under the name Brute Force. A lifelong singer-songwriter\, Friedland began his musical journey a songwriter for Bright Tunes Productions at the behest of doo-wop group The Tokens\, who had scored a hit with “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.” Friedland joined the band as their keyboard player. For Bright Tunes\, Friedland composed the Chiffons’ 1965 hit “Nobody Knows What’s Goin’ On (in My Mind But Me).” He also composed hit songs for Del Shannon\, Peggy March\,  and The Cyrkle. \n\n\n \n\n\nIn 1968\, The Beatles famously invited musicians around the world to submit their work for consideration for release by Apple Records. Friedland answered the call with his original composition “The King of Fuh\,” which has emerged as one of the most notorious songs in annals of Apple Records history. Against all odds\, John Lennon and George Harrison opted to release the song\, which tells the tongue-in-cheek story about a monarch toiling in the land of Fuh. Under Harrison’s supervision\, the song was overdubbed with a string arrangement composed by John Barham. Given the song’s irreverent nature\, EMI (Apple’s parent company) refused to distribute the single\, of which only 1\,000 copies were pressed. In 2010\, more than four decades after its original rejection by EMI\, “The King of Fuh” was released by Apple Records on the Come and Get It compilation. Friedland is currently developing a play titled Color Talk for production.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Mind and Music of Leonard Bernstein with Dr. Richard Kogan
DESCRIPTION:Leonard Bernstein\, renowned for his dynamic conducting and compositions like “West Side Story\,” remains a towering figure in 20th-century music. Explore the fascinating intersection of Bernstein’s genius and the mind with Dr. Richard Kogan in a TED-like lecture and piano performance. Trained at Juilliard in piano and Harvard Medical School in psychiatry\, Dr. Kogan\, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Artistic Director of the Music and Medicine program at Weill Cornell Medical Center\, offers a unique perspective. \nRichard Kogan’s concert lecture audiences hear him recount Bernstein’s life “from his first cigarette to his last dying day”\, interspersing oral history and anecdote with performances of “Somewhere”\, “Maria”\, “Tonight”\, “One Hand\, One Heart”\, “America” and more. Dr. Kogan offers a psychiatric perspective on Bernstein’s complex personality in this program as well.  He identifies Bernstein as a man of voracious appetites\, the satisfaction of which caused enormous guilt.  Still\, Dr. Kogan points to Bernstein’s remarkable capacity to sustain contradictions.  He cites Bernstein’s balancing of the tensions between elite and mass appeal\, between emotions and the intellect and between tradition and innovation.  Dr. Kogan contrasts these with Bernstein’s irreconcilable bisexual conflicts and his struggles to balance the life of a composer and the life of a performer. \nphoto: Paul de Hueck\, courtesy the Leonard Bernstein Office\, Inc.
