magidThere's a lot coming up this fall (aka I got a couple of fall catalogs not long ago). This is so I can try to keep track of things that seemed interesting.
The fall lineup of World Music starts September 10. There are lots of concerts with overseas groups, plus some dance performances; it's worth checking out the whole lineup to see what appeals. Some highlights: whirling dervishes (October 7), a couple of fado singers, some African singing groups, the Alloy Orchestra playing for a screening of the old silent Phantom of the Opera movie (October 28), Chinese acrobats (November 6), Japanese drummers (November 18), the UnPossessed (based on Don Quixote, and the picture reminding me of a performace at Brandeis a couple of years ago, which was wonderful. Aha, it's by the same group.)(November 16-20), and a showcase of local contemporary dance (December 9-10).
Sunday, September 11, Ma'ayan is hosting a morning of learning, preparing for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. 9:15 am -12:30 pm, at Maimonides, $8 in advance, $10 at the door.
September 24 and 25 is the Three Apples Storytelling Festival, out in Harvard (the town, not the university). The schedule has changed from previous years, with performances Saturday, and master classes Sunday. Prices range, with an early-bird discount through September 22). I might go Saturday night, but that's the only time that works for me.
(Note that there are some free earlier preview performances at a number of public libraries.)
Sunday, October 2, there's going to be a mushroom walk (through CCAE), somewhere out in Lincoln/Concord. 1 pm - 5 pm, $65.
There's also a slide show and lecture the Thursday evening before; the description includes the fascinating phrase "how they may be crucial in solving several global problems." $15, 8 pm - 10 pm, 56 Brattle Street.
Harvard Square's Oktoberfest is also October 2.
Most Mondays this fall, starting October 17, CCAE has poetry readings, by a variety of different poets. 8 pm, 56 Brattle Street, almost all are $3.
Wednesday, October 19, CCAE is having a free talk by Candelaria Silva, directo of ACT Roxbury. 8 pm, 56 Brattle Street, advance reservations recommended.
Saturday, October 29, there is a storytelling by Jennifer Justice. 8 pm - 10 pm, 56 Brattle Street, $13 in advance, $15 at the door.
Wednesday, November 9, CCAE is having a free panel discussion about William Lloyd Garrison, a leading abolitionist. 8 pm - 10 pm, 56 Brattle Street.
