European Folk music and Cultural History with Natasha Dukach. Beyond just exploring Pan-Slavic and Eastern European music for the sheer joy of it, I also want to push the perceived boundaries of national folk music. In Russia, Ukraine, and Hungary, growing conservative political factions are attempting to use their nation’s musical heritage in a bid for a kind musical nationalism--each claiming the purity and superiority of their respective nation’s musical traditions as a way of instilling cons …

Because the goal is to learn tunes and to practice playing with others I'm gue …

In a Playback Theatre meetup, group members briefly share important moments from their lives (sometimes on a theme). Other members then "play back" the emotional essence of the story they just heard using movement, music, metaphor, dialogue... Together we often laugh, cry, get new insights about our lives, and feel heard and connected. As "actors" we also learn how to be more free and expressive and how to listen deeply and accurately.
