SUMMARY:Grounded
DESCRIPTION:*** Please note that there will also be a home football game taking place on campus at 1pm this day. We encourage our patrons to arrive on campus early and please let the parking attendants know you are here for the MET opera so that you do not pay the parking fee.*** \nTwo-time Tony Award–winning composer Jeanine Tesori’s powerful new opera Grounded\, commissioned by the Met and based on librettist George Brant’s acclaimed play\, wrestles with the ethical quandaries and psychological toll of 21st-century warfare. Mezzo-soprano Emily D’Angelo\, one of opera’s most compelling young stars\, portrays Jess\, a hot-shot fighter pilot whose unplanned pregnancy takes her out of the cockpit and lands her in Las Vegas\, operating a Reaper drone halfway around the world. As she struggles to adjust to this new way of doing battle\, she fights to maintain her sanity\, and her soul\, as she is called to rain down death by remote control. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin oversees the Met premiere of Tesori’s kaleidoscopic score and a cast that also features tenor Ben Bliss as the Wyoming rancher who becomes Jess’s husband. Michael Mayer’s high-tech staging\, using a vast array of LED screens\, presents a variety of perspectives on the action\, including the drone’s predatory view from high above. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series\, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.

SUMMARY:Producing the Beatles
DESCRIPTION:Based on his acclaimed podcast\, Producing the Beatles\, Jason Kruppa explores the music of the Fab Four from the perspective of the one person whose point of view has never been properly and thoroughly examined: their producer\, George Martin. Using innovative techniques to break down their recordings\, we’ll discover how the Beatles went from learning their way around the studio to becoming masters of the art of recording\, with their producer working side by side with them each step of the way. And finally\, with re-recordings and detailed recreations of Martin’s orchestral scores that allow us to hear individual instrument parts\,\, we’ll learn how his arrangements enhanced and shaped the Beatles’ music. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Songwriters By The Sea
DESCRIPTION:Distinguished NJ Songwriters Joe Rapolla and Joe D’Urso are back this year hosting the celebrated Songwriters by the Sea series at the Lauren K. Woods Theatre. What once started in a small coffee shop as an area for local songwriters has now grown into a series that features some of the top songwriters in the country. This year\, the show features special guests Willie Nile and Emily Grove\, as well as an opening set by student/artist Amani Lillian and Prof. George Wurzbach. \nA pre-show reception will be held at 7 pm for all ticket holders\, doors open at 7:30 PM\n \nThe New York Times called Buffalo\, NY born Willie Nile “one of the most gifted singer-songwriters to emerge from the New York scene in years.” Bono\, Bruce Springsteen\, Pete Townshend\, Lou Reed\, Lucinda Williams\, Jim Jarmusch\, and Little Steven are among those who have sung his praises. He has toured across the U.S. with The Who and has sung with Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. As the induction program from the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame says: “His live performances are legendary.” His 2020 album New York At Night got rave reviews\, with Downbeat calling it a “sonic love letter to Gotham.” His newest studio album The Day The Earth Stood Still\, which features a duet with Steve Earle on the song “Blood On Your Hands” was released on Aug 13\, 2021. \nEmily Grove has had a varied and exciting musical journey\, from coffeehouses to Berklee College of Music\, to television appearances to tours in the UK and Europe. She has toured the UK\, Ireland\, US\, and Canada\, opening up for and performing with British artist David Ford. She also had her own headlining tour in Germany\, Bulgaria\, and England. She recently put on a sold- out Joni Mitchell show\, featuring some of Asbury Park’s most talented musicians. She’s performed with/opened up for Glen Burtnik\, Brett Michaels\, Dan Reed\, David Ford\, Jeffrey Gaines\, James Maddock\, John Lefler (Dashboard Confessional)\, Ari Hest\, and many others. She’s recorded with David Ford\, Glen Burtnik\, Steve Forbert\, and UK artist Jack Henderson\, among many others. \nAbout Songwriters by the Sea:\nSongwriters by the Sea began as intimate\, casual coffeehouse jam sessions around Asbury Park\, and has since evolved into a national show attracting some of the most revered singers and songwriters of today’s scene— from David Johansen and Garland Jeffreys to Glen Burtnik\, Rhett Miller\, Marshall Crenshaw and Alison Moorer. Along the way\, D’Urso (front man of Stone Caravan and board member of WHY Hunger and Light Of Day) and Rapolla (a veteran music industry executive\, solo performer\, and front man of the band Perfect Square) have fine-tuned their circle of artists\, trading favorite songs and illuminating backstories behind their most personal works\, into a vehicle that brings out the best in the assembled talent. Whether the venue is a club\, a historic theater or a campus performing arts center\, Songwriters by the Sea has been known to turn any space into an intimate house party atmosphere; a gathering of friends and a place where something akin to magic often takes hold. \nAll net proceeds will support Monmouth University’s Endowed Music Industry Scholarships.\nSponsored by Tim Cabrey\, The Golland Family\, Don Moliver\, and Matt & Carol Wojcik in memory of Mark Wojcik.\nPhoto by John Posada

SUMMARY:Hurricanes of Color
DESCRIPTION:Michael Frankel\, the author of Hurricanes of Color and Monmouth University alumnus will be giving an artist’s talk and book-signing hosted by Prof. Ken Womack and Prof. Joe Rapolla. \nHurricanes of Color \nIn 1964\, fifteen-year-old Mike Frankel found himself among professional photojournalists covering a Beatles concert during the band’s first tour in the United States. A few years later\, he was a regular photographer at the Fillmore East\, a storied venue in classic rock. And in 1969\, he was onstage at Woodstock\, documenting one of the most important events in American music history. \nFeaturing Frankel’s stunning photographs of nearly every major rock figure from the 1960s and ’70s―including Led Zeppelin\, Pink Floyd\, the Rolling Stones\, Janis Joplin\, and the Grateful Dead―as well as many unpublished images of the Beatles\, Hurricanes ofColor chronicles an extraordinary moment. Frankel\, who was for a time a personal photographer for Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna\, developed an innovative style―one that layered images with multiple exposures to capture the spirit of the music of the era and the experience of listening to the bands live. \nA must-have for fans of classic rock\, this is a spectacular and profound collection of photography that complements the music of the world’s biggest performers.

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT - Learn the Art of Ukrainian Egg Decorating
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate the spring at Monmouth University with this unique opportunity to learn the seasonal ancient art known as Pysanky. Pysanky\, also known as Ukrainian eggs\, is an ancient folk tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years. This meditative and communal experience is unlike any other art process and for many this workshop marks the beginning of a spring time family tradition that can be passed on and enjoyed for years to come. This tutorial will cover the history and traditions surrounding Pysanky\, a demonstration\, and independent practice session. The instructor will provide a variety of eggs\, dyes\, and tools. Participants will turn real eggs into works of art using a wax resist method similar to batik. A great deal of patience and concentration is required to complete a single egg\, but it is very rewarding to reveal your hard work when the wax layers are taken off. In-person attendance will be extremely limited. \nNo prerequisite skills are required. Please bring a container or old egg carton to take home your creation. ages 18+

SUMMARY:Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul
DESCRIPTION:The iconic photographs of Larry Hulst capture the freewheeling energy of live music and the enduring visual spectacle of rock’s greatest performers. From Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix to David Bowie and Lauryn Hill\, Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues and Soul brings together over 70 images of legendary musicians and singers across three genres and generations. The exhibition charts Hulst’s extraordinary path through the pulsing heart of the most exciting live music of the last century\, showcasing a unique visual anthology of rock\, blues\, and soul music from 1970–1999. These images\, which have been featured on album art and Rolling Stone spreads\, convey Hulst’s lifelong passion for the magnetism\, immediacy\, and unpredictability of live music. With photos that also document the unforgettable voices of funk\, punk\, and beyond\, Front Row Center grants viewers an all-access pass to some of the most memorable performances in popular music history. \nGALLERY TALK:\nJune 2\, 2022 at 5:30 PM| REGISTER HERE\nPlease join us for gallery talk by Dr. Ken Womack\, who will give an in depth look at the iconic photographs of Larry Hulst in the exhibition Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul on display in Pollak Gallery. Professor of English and Popular Music at Monmouth University Dr. Ken Womack is an American writer\, literary critic\, public speaker\, and music historian\, particularly focusing on the cultural influence of the Beatles. He is the author of the bestselling Solid State: The Story of Abbey Road and the End of the Beatles and John Lennon\, 1980: The Last Days in the Life. \nAbout Larry Hulst\nBorn in 1946 in San Diego\, Larry Hulst is a longtime participant and chronicler of the concert scene. His collection of nearly three thousand black-and-white negatives has helped immortalize the live acts of influential musicians over five momentous decades of rock history. His photography career began in 1969\, when the former Navy corpsman returned home to Sacramento after a tour of duty in Vietnam. Citing Jim Marshall\, Ansel Adams\, and Lynn Goldsmith among his influences\, \nHulst is fueled both by his respect for his musical heroes and by his dedication to perfecting his photographic eye. The hallmark of Hulst’s work is his authentic ability to evoke the raw energy and emotion of the concert experience. The only prop he has ever needed was the stage. “I never wanted to go backstage\,” Hulst states. “I want to be where the action is. After all\, the ‘show’ is projected out onto the audience. I want to be in the audience.” \nFront Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul is organized and toured by International Arts & Artists\, Washington\, DC.

SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Jonathan Franzen\, Freedom
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Jonathan Franzen’s Freedom. \nFreedom\, by the New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Franzen\, is a masterly novel of contemporary love and marriage\, a brilliant charting of the temptations and burdens of liberty: the thrills of teenage lust\, the shaken compromises of middle age\, the wages of suburban sprawl\, and the heavy weight of empire. \nPatty and Walter Berglund were the pioneers of old St. Paul—the gentrifiers\, the hands-on parents\, the avant garde of the Whole Foods generation. But now\, in the new millennium\, they have become a mystery. Why has their teenage son moved in with the aggressively Republican family next door? Why has Walter\, once an environmental lawyer\, taken a job working with Big Coal? Most startling of all\, why has Patty\, the perfect neighbor\, turned into the local Fury? Patty and Walter Berglund are indelible characters\, and their mistakes and joys\, as they struggle to learn how to live in an ever more confusing world\, have become touchstones of contemporary American reality. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event. When you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. 
\n\nPlease stay tuned for more details about an in-person location for this event when more information becomes available.

SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Patti Smith\, Just Kids
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Patti Smith\, Just Kids.\n \nPatti Smith’s definitive memoir: an evocative\, honest and moving coming-of-age story of her extraordinary relationship with the artist Robert Mapplethorpe. In 1967\, a chance meeting between two young people led to a romance and a lifelong friendship that would carry each to international success never dreamed of. The backdrop is Brooklyn\, Chelsea Hotel\, Max’s Kansas City\, Scribner’s Bookstore\, Coney Island\, Warhol’s Factory and the whole city resplendent. Among their friends\, literary lights\, musicians and artists such as Harry Smith\, Bobby Neuwirth\, Allen Ginsberg\, Sandy Daley\, Sam Shepherd\, William Burroughs\, etc. It was a heightened time politically and culturally; the art and music worlds exploding and colliding. In the midst of all this two kids made a pact to always care for one another. Scrappy\, romantic\, committed to making art\, they prodded and provided each other with faith and confidence during the hungry years–the days of cous-cous and lettuce soup. \nJust Kids begins as a love story and ends as an elegy. Beautifully written\, this is a profound portrait of two young artists\, often hungry\, sated only by art and experience. And an unforgettable portrait of New York\, her rich and poor\, hustlers and hellions\, those who made it and those whose memory lingers near. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event.

SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Toni Morrison\, Beloved
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Toni Morrison’s Beloved. The magnificent Pulitzer Prize–winning work that brought the wrenching experience of slavery into the literature of our time\, enlarging our comprehension of America’s original sin.  Upon the original publication of Beloved in 1987\, John Leonard wrote in the Los Angeles Times: “I can’t imagine American literature without it.” Nearly two decades later\, The New York Times chose Beloved as the best American novel of the previous fifty years. \nSet in post–Civil War Ohio\, it is the story of Sethe\, an escaped slave who has lost a husband and buried a child; who has withstood savagery and not gone mad. Sethe\, who now lives in a small house on the edge of town with her daughter\, Denver\, her mother-in-law\, Baby Suggs\, and a disturbing\, mesmerizing apparition who calls herself Beloved. Sethe works at “beating back the past\,” but it makes itself heard and felt incessantly: in her memory; in Denver’s fear of the world outside the house; in the sadness that consumes Baby Suggs; in the arrival of Paul D\, a fellow former slave; and\, most powerfully\, in Beloved\, whose childhood belongs to the hideous logic of slavery and who has now come from the “place over there” to claim retribution for what she lost and for what was taken from her. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event. When you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.
