SUMMARY:Transnational Popular Music and Dance of Brazil & Ireland: Rob Curto\, Paddy League\, and Kate Spanos
DESCRIPTION:Forró\, frevo\, reels\, jigs\, and the button accordion. There are more connections than you know between the popular music and dances of Brazil and Ireland! \nJoin us for a conversation between ethnomusicologist Paddy League\, Ph.D.\, ethnochoreologist Kate Spanos\, Ph.D.\, and accordion master musician Rob Curto. They will describe their experiences and research in northeastern Brazilian and traditional Irish music and dance. The program will be moderated by Bryan McCann\, Ph.D. of Georgetown University. We invite you to join us and ask questions with this distinguished panel.  \nThis is the first in a series of conversations and multidisciplinary productions\, and the beginning of an artistic collaboration between these artist/scholars. \nJoin us on Facebook or YouTube on Friday\, September 4 at 8PM US/Eastern to join the conversation live. \nRSVP on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/308480846887212 \nAbout the guests:\nRob Curto\nRob Curto is an accordionist\, pianist\, and composer based in Philadelphia\, and is the bandleader of Fish Harmonics\, influenced by decades of music-making around the world. Steeped in American jazz piano standards\, Rob discovered the accordion as an adult\, and his curiosity led him to Brazil on a Fulbright project–where he ended up living on-and-off for several years in the Northeast\, learning and absorbing the music traditions\, and especially the piano accordion. Rob was part of establishing the Forro “scene” in the US with Rob Curto’s Forro For All\, and toured the world with his “Brazilian Bluegrass” band\, Matuto. Curto has developed an interest in Irish button box\, adding B/C button accordion to his repertoire. He studies with NEA National Heritage Fellow and multi-All Ireland Champion\, Billy McComisky\, and occasionally with John Whelan and PJ Hernon. Curto is profoundly interested in the (relatively) recent history of accordion in traditional Irish music. \nPaddy League\nPanayotis (Paddy) League grew up around traditional Irish and Greek music and dance\, and by his teenage years was performing professionally throughout both diasporas on a number of string and percussion instruments. For the last decade he has devoted much of his time and energy to studying the button accordion music of Northeast Brazil\, particularly the style developed by the Calixto family of Campina Grande\, Paraíba. He is currently Assistant Professor of Ethnomusicology at Florida State University and Director of the Center for Music of the Americas. He has published widely on the music\, dance\, and oral poetry traditions of the Aegean Greek islands\, and is working on several print and multimedia projects in collaboration with Paraiban button accordionist Luizinho Calixto. \nKate Spanos\nKate Spanos\, Ph.D.\, is a dancer\, educator\, scholar\, and arts administrator whose work focuses on “dances of resistance” and social change through dance. She is an Irish dancer from Washington\, DC and she completed an MA in traditional Irish dance performance at the University of Limerick in 2008. Her doctoral dissertation (University of Maryland) focused on the festivals and masquerade dances of Montserrat\, the “Other Emerald Isle” of the Caribbean. She also practices various Brazilian movement forms including capoeira\, frevo\, and samba. In 2018\, she was a postdoctoral Fulbright scholar in Recife\, Brazil\, where she studied popular dance of Pernambuco\, including frevo\, cavalo marinho\, and maracatu rural. www.thekatespanos.com \nBryan McCann\nBryan McCann\, Ph.D.\, is the department chair and a professor of Brazilian history in the History Department at Georgetown University. He is the author of the books Hello\, Hello Brazil: Popular Music in the Making of Modern Brazil (Duke\, 2004) and João Gilberto and Stan Getz’s Getz/Gilberto (Bloomsbury\, 2018)\, as well as numerous articles on Brazilian popular music.

SUMMARY:African Rhythms in Brazilian Music\, Part I - Workshop with Richard Miller\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:EducArte workshop series. Wednesday\, September 23\, 2020. \nAbout Richard Miller: \nRichard Miller explores the richly expressive sounds of the nylon string guitar (both 7 string and 6 string) with a repertoire that includes Brazilian styles (choro\, samba\, bossa nova\, forró\, etc.)\, American jazz\, Latin American styles (salsa\, bolero\, tangos\, etc.)\, and Classical guitar. He is also active as an educator\, composer\, and writer/presenter for academic publications and conferences. He earned a Ph.D. in music theory from Catholic University of America in 2006 and he has taught theory and guitar at Georgetown University. He holds a Master of Music degree in guitar performance from Manhattan School of Music. Richard Miller was born in Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil to an American father and a Brazilian mother and moved frequently in Brazil\, United States and Puerto Rico (see “Treble is my middle name” under musings). He has become well known in the Washington\, DC area for his performances of both classical guitar music and popular Brazilian and Latin-American music and has traveled extensively for concerts and recitals in United States and Latin America. A review of a recital by Richard at the State Department affirmed “Throughout his recital\, he not only displayed impeccable technique but communicated his love of this beautiful music.” A review in the Washington City Paper by Joel Siegal of the duo of Richard Miller with Patrick de Santos (voice) stated “Patrick and Richard strike a remarkable balance between disciplined technique and otional abandon.”

SUMMARY:Ethnographic research workshop: Sharing your research findings
DESCRIPTION:This online workshop is the fourth in a series of ethnographic research workshops organized in partnership with Fulbridge\, the Fulbrighter Network\, and EducArte. The workshops are for Fulbright alumni\, current Fulbrighters\, and prospective Fulbrighters\, or for anyone interested in ethnographic research. We welcome people from all fields and disciplines to share their experiences and expertise. \nThis workshop (on Zoom) will be an open forum discussion about sharing ethnographic research findings. Some of the questions we will discuss are: \n\nWhat are some of the ways that we share or apply our research findings? (Publications? Forums? Community events? Festivals?)\nWhat are some concerns with translating lived experiences into written form?\nHow do we talk about both positive and negative experiences when we return home\, and in different contexts (in the classroom\, at conferences\, in publications\, etc.)? \nWhat does it mean to become a cultural ambassador\, as central to the Fulbright mission?\nHow do we maintain connections in the host country and create networks for future work? How do we build research collaborations or mentoring relationships?\n\nTo register\, visit tiny.cc/FulbridgeEthnography4. More information about the workshops and video recordings of previous workshops can be found here.
