Eli Hiton Piano Recital

Eli Hiton will present a solo piano recital on Saturday, June 28th at 4:00 pm at Grace Church | Red Hill. He will perform an abridged version of the concert the following morning (June 29) at the regular 10:30 am service. The program was inspired by Rumi’s “The Guest House,” which recommends that the reader welcome all guests, joys and sorrows alike. The program, including works by Debussy and Schumann, as well as contemporary composers Anna Meredith and Tigran Hamasyan, gives the audience (and Eli) an opportunity to welcome a variety of visitors to their own guest house. Both the Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning performances will be followed by an opportunity for discussion with Eli and fellow concertgoers to share what resonated, what didn’t work, or to air any other grievances. The performances will be free with an opportunity for donation to help support the piano rental. Hope to see you there!

The Wonderground

The Wonderground is a nascent singing activism cohort that meets every Wednesday evening.
 
The Wonderground cohort will convene this Wednesday, June 4 at Ix Art Park (522 2nd St. SE), where we'll socialize and sing with folks at the weekly Food Not Bombs (FNB) gathering. FNB offers a community meal from 6:15 to 6:45 to which all are welcome. The Wonderground will start at 7:00 pm.   
 
In addition to networking with FNB folks, we'll continue developing themes we explored at recent Wonderground gatherings: Possible march and street theater action on No Kings Day, Sat June 14; and Interdependence Day celebration on or around July 4. When we discussed developing our wonderground invitation last week, these are among the phrases we mused upon: "Heal the world through joy with the wonderground." "Sow the seeds of wonder in the wonderground." Other key concepts invoked as we mused upon the vision and praxis of our wonderground: Experiencing wonder (wonder as a form of awe, beyond simply wondering); building bridges; the wonder of harmonizing together.
 
Here's a quotation on proliferating solidarity. I find it quite relevant to our bridge-building aspirations:  "What do we hold sacred?... Solidarity does not magically emerge as a result of our interdependence--it depends on our ability to describe what bonds us, who we are, what has value, and how we should live together. As we survey our lives today, we can easily see that wealth and fame, status and success, are the focus of much of our attention and striving. The dominant conception of value emphasizes price and profits over other ways of establishing worth. But.. If we are to truly forge a democratic society where everyone can live with dignity, we need to re-evaluate the stories we tell ourselves about what matters. We need to understand the rituals that currently organize our lives and reconsider how we direct our time, attention, and piety. " by Astra Taylor and Leah Hunt-Hendrix, "Solidarity: the Past, Present, and Future of a World-Changing Idea"

Hope to see you Wednesday!
 
singcerely
