Summer 2016

Chick Corea Triopg. 10

“I loved hearing [the artist’s] perspective and think his talk was one of the most memorable that I’ve seen. I love inferring the cultural differences and the message of the power of music and its impact on global health! He was a great storyteller, which is what humans crave – in addition to music! Music’s power in global health is something

that may be overlooked but I felt was powerful!”

Julia Weber ‘15INTS 17/GEO 2: Global Health and Society

“At first look, I’ll admit that [the performance] didn’t seem the most appealing or intriguing because the concept is quite unusual and can be confusing to some. But that was the best part about it in the end; I was so pleasantly surprised with the concept, [the artist’s] ability to insightfully explain its purpose and the methodology behind his

work, as well as his passion for creating art out of meaningful materials.”

This summer the Hopkins Center is pleased to continue its partnership with the Dartmouth Center for the Advancement of Learning (DCAL) to support faculty who include Hop programming in their syllabus. In recognition of the unique experiential value that the performing arts bring to classroom curriculum, DCAL can underwrite the ticket costs for your class to attend a Hop event. If your students are required to attend—and there are no departmental or other funds to cover ticket costs—you are eligible for support from the DCAL/Hop Experiential Learning Fund. Funding is first-come, first-served and includes your faculty ticket. You and your students will be invited to reflect on the experiential learning value of the experience afterwards.

To request tickets for your class, please email [email protected] with the performance you are interested in and the approximate number of tickets needed. We will send you a link to a short online form to complete the request.

This summer, the Hop is throwing a free, all-ages party of music in a our second summer of the “Free For All” series, part of the Hop’s Community Venture Initiative. Three Thursday evenings feature contagiously danceable concerts on the Dartmouth Green (see pages 4, 7 & 11). Additionally, the Hop is excited to present a work-in-progress by MacArthur ‘genius’ award winner Kyle Abraham (page 6), which will be inspired by workshops with Dartmouth students and community members.

The Hop also joins the Theater Department to present original student and alumni work and continues its partnership with New York Theatre Workshop. Stay tuned for additional curricular connections when these performances are announced.

DID YOU KNOW?

You can hold a block of tickets for purchase by your class by emailing [email protected]. Subject to availability and some restrictions, each faculty member bringing a class to a performance will receive one FREE TICKET to the show for him/herself.

Saturday, July 23Spaulding Auditorium • 8 pm

In a little over 100 minutes in front of a hometown crowd, performer and songwriter extraordinaire Elvis Costello takes us on a musical journey through his vast songbook. Set in a 1960s-style living room with an oversized TV broadcasting personal family photos, Costello is engagingly up front and personal. Moving between guitars and piano he digs deep into his catalog with hits like Watching the Detectives alongside such rarities as 45. In between songs Costello treats the audience to stories about his family and the origins of hismusic and traveling life. Spontaneously entertaining, acerbically witty and challengingly intimate, Detour is a concert film like no other.

Admired by peers Matisse, Monet and Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir is also one of the most fiercely debated artists. Instrumental in creating the Impressionist movement with his iconic painting of Parisians, Renoir’s change in direction yielded extraordinary results—and criticism. Anchored by the remarkable collection of 181 Renoirs at the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia,this singular film places Renoir as a critical link between the old and the new.

Exhibition on Screen features unparalleled, behind-the-scenes access to blockbuster art exhibitions and expert analysis—a veritable front-row seat to the world’s greatest art.
