SUMMARY:that which remains art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:That Which Remains\n\n\n\nExhibition by Leigh Ann Hallberg and Paul Bright\n\n\n\nSeptember 16 – 27\, 2025\n\n\n\n*Reception: Friday\, Sept 19th | 6-8P\n\n\n\n*Gallery walk-through with artists\, 6:30p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About That Which Remains  \n\n\n\nBeginning with our hominin ancestors\, artists have always made use of found materials\, recovered objects\, and their specific qualities to create art. But increasingly\, materials for art became subsumed mostly as vehicles for depiction and expression; as a means to an end. The singular qualities of the materials of art begin to reassert themselves in the late 19th C\, not merely coincidentally with the rise of photography. The photograph\, so successful in recording the specificity of surfaces\, the lighting and chiaroscuro of forms\, the “facts” of appearances\, allowed a medium like paint to more freely exhibit its inherent qualities\, even when used in the service of depiction. (Much of Impressionism was structured and animated by this interplay of the physicality of evident paint and the expression it facilitated.) The introduction of collage in Cubism and the conceptual deployment of found objects in the work of Duchamp et al\, brought intense focus on the materials of art as well as the proposition that art no longer needed be as created as it had been. It could be composed of preexisting things\, found and repurposed objects\, in a new\, industrialized world of burgeoning objects of all kinds. The artist’s role in this context was largely that of selector – not unlike a photographer taking a picture – finding or stumbling across the right object to convey an intended meaning\, a meaning which very often arose in part from the found object itself\, which carried a history of past use and significance that intertwined with its new role as art object. Improvisatory\, aleatory or chance methodologies often guided selection of the objects and the creation of these works. Our work in That Which Remains acknowledges this lineage and these approaches in varying degrees. \n\n\n\nOur respective work is diverse in the forms it assumes\, in its intentions\, and in its stylistic permutations. But in That Which Remains\, we are presenting works that share  \n\n\n\na focus on traces\, palimpsests\, residue\, and remnants. With the commonality of being made from detritus\, from the Found\, of discarded parts and fragments\, the works evince improvisation\, construction\, and accretion as compositional methods. The work is varied but coheres through conceptual\, aesthetic\, and visual overlaps. Our interventions on our chosen objects can be minimal or subtle\, but they are significant. \n\n\n\nLeigh Ann’s work evinces a preoccupation with lineage\, phenomena of “nature\,” and scales of time and experience\, in both the outer and inner worlds of human experience and the related proportionality of abstraction and figuration. It incorporates manipulated and reconfigured heirlooms; a woman’s dress gloves (Chirality); a sectioned and reconfigured Murray Bay wool blanket (Murray Bay: Standing Wave; a broken plate with inscribed figures of a seemingly runic numerology (3:2); re-embroidered linens (Leighs\, Nana’s Helix); and durational paintings called Accretions. She also presents an elegant metaphor for our toxic\, over-consumptive present\, Core Sample\, a totem holding layered and compressed plastic waste\, reminiscent of glacial ice samples containing the stratified atmospheric history of eons.  \n\n\n\nPaul’s are fundamentally abstract works\, even when they are composed of figurative or recognizable elements. They eschew or disrupt narrative. They traffic in advertising imagery – the “de/collages” of found materials and removed posters\, the serendipitous Tear Sheets – and the found materials that pervade our lives (Just Like A Box). He is interested in how the physical degradation of their components mirrors their materialist and often retrograde messages. However\, when these elements and ambiguous images are recontextualized in collaged compositions\, they reveal an unexpected poetry. This is also elicited from the “aural quotidian” in his sound collages’ arrangement of found and recorded sounds (Wet in Dry)\, while the direct\, minimal contrasts of topical printed matter (of Minor Interventions) opportunistically reveals the unintended irony or ready-made satire of their sources. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday-Friday\, 12-5p \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5p

SUMMARY:Rahsaan Barber Quintet
DESCRIPTION:Since earning a Master’s Degree in Jazz Performance from the Manhattan School of Music in 2005\, Rahsaan Barber has set out on a singular path of musical excellence in performance\, composition\, education\, and entrepreneurship. Rahsaan enjoys a career that encompasses an ever-expanding range of musical styles\, including jazz\, blues\, funk\, classical\, fusion\, soul\, Latin\, and world music. \n\n\n\nRahsaan’s passionate\, sincere\, and studious approach to music-making has garnered professional appearances onstage alongside such heavyweights as Christian McBride\, Brian Blade\, the Temptations\, Delfeayo Marsalis\, the Spanish Harlem Orchestra\, Duffy Jackson\, Winard Harper\, Kirk Franklin\, Meghan Trainor and the Wooten Brothers. The saxophonist has performed on many of the world’s most prestigious stages for music including The Ryman\, The Village Vanguard\, Birdland\, Lincoln Center\, the Kennedy Center\, the Montreux Jazz Festival\, and the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture. Rahsaan joined the ranks of the nation’s rising jazz stars as the leader of his own quintet\, Everyday Magic\, and co-leader of the groundbreaking Nashville-based Latin-jazz septet El Movimiento. Rahsaan has entered the ranks of the nation’s premier jazz artists following several celebrated releases\, most recently including “Mosaic\,” a double-disc collection of original works released in April of 2021\, featuring trumpeter Nathan Warner and trombonist Roland Barber\, Rahsaan’s twin brother. Prior to the release of “Mosaic\,” Barber received critical acclaim for “The Music In The Night” (2017) and “Everyday Magic\,” (2011) both released on the saxophonist’s record label\, Jazz Music City\, which he founded to showcase his hometown’s (Nashville\, TN) diverse and impressive musical talent. In addition to his own jazz outfits\, the saxophonist founded The Nashville Salsa Machine in 2016\, a twelve-member ensemble featuring Music City’s most celebrated Latin-music performers. Barber is also an in-demand saxophonist for recording sessions and touring work\, most recently completing a year-long tour with pop icon Kelly Clarkson and multiple tours with Lauren Daigle. \n\n\n\nRahsaan currently serves as Assistant Professor of Jazz Studies and Saxophone at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Barber has taught extensively at the collegiate level for over a decade\, including six years of instruction at Belmont University\, where he began his collegiate teaching career as instructor jazz and classical saxophone\, jazz ensembles\, and commercial music styles at the impressive age of twenty-five. Barber has given masterclasses and concerts at multiple Jazz Education Network conferences and at numerous colleges and universities\, including the University of Tennessee at Knoxville\, the University of Memphis\, Lipscomb University\, UNC-Pembroke\, UNC-Wilmington\, Indiana University\, The University of Wisconsin (OshKosh)\, the University of Evansville\, and many more. In addition\, Rahsaan has served as Vice-President of the Tennessee Jazz and Blues Society and as a board member for the Nashville Jazz Workshop’s Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion panel. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Miles Davis Jazz Studies Program at UNCG is a unique and innovative undergraduate jazz program designed to emulate the traditional process of learning jazz\, through a combination of mentorship\, real-world playing experiences\, and a communal approach to learning. Although the program is housed in one of the largest music schools in the Southeast\, it is kept intentionally small\, resulting in an intensive and highly personalized learning environment. \n\n\n\n UNCG offers the following degree programs for students interested in studying Jazz: \n\n\n\n\nBachelor of Music (B.M.) – Performance\n\n\n\nPost-Baccalaureate Certificate in Jazz Studies\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Event\nMasterclass3:00 pm\, Organ Hall \n\n\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe importance of philanthropy has never been greater.

SUMMARY:mOthertongue: Lived Experience in Asian America
DESCRIPTION:https://youtube.com/live/W5r6deD2y7k?feature=share\n\n\n\n\nmOthertongue: Lived Experience in Asian America\n\n\n\nJennifer Lien\, sopranoAnnie Jeng\, piano \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExotic landscapes. Virtuous\, submissive\, sexualized women. Ineffective\, emasculated\, villainous men. These images of Asia have long been a staple of the European imagination\, whether in colonial-era art song\, grand Italian opera\, film\, or television. Here\, in the 21st century\, these stereotypes about Americans of Asian descent persist (see: pandemic-era anti-Asian hate).   \n\n\n\nI believe that the way to challenge outdated cultural ideas is by sharing new art with fresh cultural ideas. I wanted to perform songs that assert the Asian American lived experience\, from the perspective of those of us who live it. But when I went looking for songs by Asian American composers set to contemporary Asian American texts\, I came up empty. So I reached out to Chen\, Dunphy\, and Sankaram\, three Asian American women composers in their prime who also write beautifully for the voice. To my surprise\, all three readily agreed to my proposal.   \n\n\n\nThe new songs on today’s program express the joys\, pains\, contradictions\, and pride we experience as Asians living in this land we call home. I am struck by the recurring themes that resonate across the three song cycles: colonization; cultural shame; living in between cultures; culture loss; microaggression; pride. To sing these truths is to find and reclaim power that has been lost somewhere along the way.  \n\n\n\nMy deepest gratitude goes to Justine\, Melissa\, Kamala\, and the poet Ophelia Hu Kinney; to Sam Martin of Cincinnati Song Initiative for recognizing the importance of this project and co-commissioning these songs with me; to the Minnesota State Arts Board for awarding me a Creative Individuals grant in 2024; to all my Asian American pianist partners on this project\, in particular Annie Jeng here in North Carolina; and to all the host institutions welcoming this project to their concert stages.  \n\n\n\nMy wish for this project is that these songs feed the hunger of singers for repertoire that expresses their lived experience\, and inspire marginalized composers to create works that assert their truths\, take up space\, and shift the cultural needle in the right direction. Our stories are all American stories. To answer the question in Chen’s second song: All of us belong here.  \n\n\n\n— Jennifer Lien  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\nDownload Program\n\n\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe importance of philanthropy has never been greater.

SUMMARY:Beautiful In My Eyes art exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Beautiful In My Eyes\n\n\n\nSolo Exhibition by Grace Thompson\n\n\n\n September 30 – October 4\, 2025\n\n\n\nReception: Friday\, October 3rd | 6-8P\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore About Beautiful in My Eyes \n\n\n\nBeautiful in My Eyes features a group of observational oil paintings that focus on capturing lived moments in time. The work in this exhibit evokes memories of paused moments in daily life\, crafting nostalgic feelings and thoughts. As life can be unpredictable\, I seek stability by recording familiar spaces to appreciate the time spent in them and with the people I care about. This prompts me to accept spaces for what they offer rather than staging a scene. Often\, I jump into painting without preparatory drawings because the subject changes as the environment moves through time. The paintings invite the audience to reflect on small things and moments that matter to them\, whether that be observing how the sun comes through the window during midday or a napping family pet.  \n\n\n\nMore About Grace  \n\n\n\nI am an observational oil painter interested in capturing fleeting moments in time. Many of my paintings render the progression of quotidian spaces across sessions\, capturing movement of objects\, people\, and light. I explore the sense of nostalgia in mundane spaces through rigorous rhythmic applications of mark and color. \n\n\n\nFollow Grace on Instagram @gracthomp \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGreensboro Project Space Weekly Gallery Hours: \n\n\n\nTuesday – Friday\, 12 -5 PM \n\n\n\nSaturday\, 2-5PM

She received a 2017–2018 Fulbright Student Research Award to Poland for Historical Music Performance. This grant supported her dissertation research on organ masses from the Tablature of Johannes of Lublin (ca. 1540)\, culminating in a performance of its three mass cycles with vocal ensemble Flores Rosarum at the fifteenth-century Church of the Holy Cross in Krakow. She has presented at meetings of the Historical Keyboard Society of North America and the SE chapter of the American Musicological Society. \n\n\n\nHer concert programs frequently incorporate works by underappreciated composers. In 2016 Marya Fancey introduced Polish audiences to the music of Florence Price and David Hurd at the Podlaskie Organ Festival and the 18th International Festival of Organ Music at Pelplin Cathedral. She gave the 2015 world premiere of Passacaglia and Triple Fugue (organ) by Louise Talma. In 2011 she performed Sonata No. 2 (piano) by Grażyna Bacewicz at the 15th Annual Festival of Women Composers (Gainesville\, FL). \n\n\n\nIn studio and classroom teaching she augments the traditional classical canon with lesser-known compositions as well as works from a variety of other musical styles. She has taught music studies courses at UNCG\, Guilford College\, and the University of Florida. Her past professional activities include apprentice organ builder\, church organist and choir director\, private music teacher\, and assistant music editor. \n\n\n\nMarya Fancey holds the DMA degree in Organ Performance from UNC-Greensboro\, where she studied with André Lash (organ) and Andrew Willis (harpsichord and fortepiano)\, with a Post-Master’s certificate in Music Theory Pedagogy and a Post-Baccalaureate certificate in Historical Keyboard Performance. Her interest in the scholar-performer model arose from masterclasses with Marie-Claire Alain\, Olivier Latry\, John Grew\, William Porter\, Hank Knox\, and Edoardo Bellotti at multiple McGill Summer Organ Academies between 2005 and 2015. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\nDownload Program\n\n\n\n\n\nParking\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe importance of philanthropy has never been greater.
