Mark Hamill reflects on the success and cultural phenomenon of "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi" (1983), newly added to the National Film Registry in the Library of Congress. Phillip Kass is an expert writer and appraiser about fine classic stringed instruments and bows. In this lecture he gives the background and the history on how the Library of Congress acquired its Stradivari instruments. Hear the Calidore String Quartet perform on the Library's Stradivari instruments in a program of musical gold! Praised for the depth and polish of their interpretations, the Calidore will reveal Haydn's classical perfection, Brahms's romantic mastery, and Mendelssohn's passion and intensity while the harmonies still ring in your ears and reverberate in your heart.
Bria Skonberg Educational Videos
British Columbia-born jazz trumpeter, vocalist and composer Bria Skonberg shares professional techniques for beginners. The Imani Winds, one of the world's great wind quintets, has been adding new works by under-represented voices to the repertoire for this unique ensemble through commissions and advocacy for over two decades. In this educational video, the Imani Winds introduces the listener to the instruments in the quintet. With an artistic legacy spanning more than eight decades, the Netherlands Chamber Choir has won admiration for its superb interpretations of masterworks, but also for powerful, provocative original programs that defy the boundaries of traditional choral concerts.
