SUMMARY:PineCone Old Time Jam at Riparian
DESCRIPTION:Held on the 2nd Thursday of each month from 7-9 pm at the Riparian Provision Company (1408 South Saunders Street\, Raleigh). This is an up to speed\, gather in a circle kind of jam. It’s led by great players who work to make sure there’s space for everyone in the tunes. \n \nThe leader picks a key (D\, A and G are popular) and calls tunes in that key until it feels right to pick a new key and retune. The fiddlers traditionally call the tunes\, but not always the jam leader. If you’re playing fiddle you should expect to be asked\, “Hey\, you got a good D tune?” While “no” is an acceptable answer\, it’s good to have a tune in each key that you’d feel comfortable calling and kicking off. \n \nWhether you’re a first-time jammer or a veteran\, you’re welcome to learn the tunes and play along\, or just listen and observe! However\, please note that this is not a “learning” or “slow” jam. Please remember – every jam is different! This jam tends to draw a good crowd\, and it is open to musicians of all skill levels. Please help us make sure that newer players feel welcome. Also\, big\, mixed level jams can be challenging. Patience and kindness are appreciated! \nRecent tunes include: \nFly Around (D) \nSoldier’s Joy (D) \nWhiskey Before Breakfast (D) \nYellow Rose of Texas (D) \nBooth (A) \nJohn Brown’s Dream (A) \nKitchen Girl (A) \nJune Apple (A) \nNail That Catfish to the Tree (G) \nBig Scotia (G) \nElk River Blues (G) \nJenny Run Away in the Mud in the Night (G)

SUMMARY:A New Brain
DESCRIPTION:By the Tony Award-winning authors of Falsettos\, here is an energetic\, sardonic\, often comical musical about a composer during a medical emergency. Gordon collapses into his lunch and awakes in the hospital\, surrounded by his maritime-enthusiast lover\, his mother\, a co-worker\, the doctor\, and the nurses. Reluctantly\, he had been composing a song for a children’s television show that features a frog — Mr. Bungee — and the specter of this large green character and the unfinished work haunts him throughout his medical ordeal. What was thought to be a tumor turns out to be something more operable\, and Gordon recovers\, grateful for a chance to compose the songs he yearns to produce. \n*Please note this production is intended for mature audiences only (14+) \nDirected by Matthew Hager\nMusic Directed by Alex Thompson\nChoreographed by Alli Mae Carnes \nFeaturing performances from Alli Mae Carnes\, Andrew Goins\, Devin Lackey\, DJ Brinson\, Dylan Bailey\, Jordan Monadjemi\, Margaret-Ellen Christensen\, Micaela Bundy\, Susan Shank\, and Ty Spencer

Reluctantly\, he had been composing a song for a children’s television show that features a frog — Mr. Bungee — and the specter of this large green character and the unfinished work haunts him throughout his medical ordeal. What was thought to be a tumor turns out to be something more operable\, and Gordon recovers\, grateful for a chance to compose the songs he yearns to produce. \n*Please note this production is intended for mature audiences only (14+) \nDirected by Matthew Hager\nMusic Directed by Alex Thompson\nChoreographed by Alli Mae Carnes \nFeaturing performances from Alli Mae Carnes\, Andrew Goins\, Devin Lackey\, DJ Brinson\, Dylan Bailey\, Jordan Monadjemi\, Margaret-Ellen Christensen\, Micaela Bundy\, Susan Shank\, and Ty Spencer

SUMMARY:Symphonies of Paris
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy an afternoon of late Classical symphonic works composed in Paris and the North American premiere of Sergii Leontiev’s Little Bachiana\, written for Baroque Orchestra. \nSunday\, March 15th\, 4 PM\nHayes Barton United Methodist Church\n2209 Fairview Rd\, Raleigh\, NC \nThe musical scene in Paris was unlike anywhere else in Europe. The draw of talent to the Paris Conservatory also fostered musical experimentation\, exploration\, and a stretching of musical idioms. Haydn wrote his Symphony No. 87 only 10 years apart from Reicha’s first Symphony in E-flat\, but they are tonally so very different. \nWinners of the third annual High School Baroque Artist Residency Competition will also perform with the Raleigh Camerata on Haydn’s Symphony No. 87 in A major. Hear the delightful sounds of classical flutes\, oboes\, bassoons\, and horns with a full string orchestra.
