“For a performer, it is the most important thing to be free onstage,” Gavrylyuk said, “to simply dissolve into the world of music and find

artistic truth in every piece. Every good artist can really perform only when they’re free inside, when they feel liberated.”

The issue of campaign fi-nancing lies at the intersec-tion of money and politics, of morality and economics, and Trevor Potter thinks it’s time for a change.

At today’s morning lec-ture at 10:45 a.m. in the Amphitheater, Potter will show Chautauquans how the current system of cam-paign finance came to be. He is the founding presi-dent and general counsel of the Campaign Legal Center, a nonpartisan “watchdog” in campaign finance, elections, political communication and government ethics.

In the aftermath of 2008’s burst of the housing bubble, many Americans pointed fingers at those who took out loans they couldn’t af-ford for costly homes be-yond their means.

But Ali Velshi wasn’t as-signing blame.

“People were swindled,” said the former CNN chief business correspondent.

Velshi — who will begin hosting “Real Money with Ali Velshi” next month on Al Jazeera America — will speak at today’s 2 p.m. Interfaith Lecture in the Hall of Philosophy. His lecture will explore the inherent level of morality — or immorality — in to-day’s financial markets.

Humanizing a sexual predator is a tough job. To take a man notorious for se-ducing women with alcohol and charm and focus on his appeal and influence is difficult. The School of Music Voice Pro-gram’s first opera of the season, Mozart’s Don Giovanni, does just that.

The Voice Program will open Don Giovanni at 7:30 p.m. tonight in Fletcher Music Hall. Additional performances will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday and

Friday in Fletcher Music Hall. Donations taken at the door benefit the Chautauqua Women’s Club scholarship fund.

In humanizing a character so often de-picted as a monster, stage director John Giampietro and music director Milos Repicky portray Giovanni as a creative artist. He is a sculptor, painter, illustrator and photographer. He captures the life and fascination of those around him.

“The thing that attracts people to cre-ative, visual artists is that the visual artists can make the subject immortal,” Giampiet-ro said. “And that’s a very seductive thing.”

Throughout the Voice Program’s pro-duction, female characters are drawn to Giovanni for his talents and the power he possesses in his work. If Repicky and Giampietro were to present Giovanni as simply a sexual predator, the audience would focus on only that aspect of his life; there would be nothing in the char-acter to care about.

“That’s the great thing about this pro-duction,” Repicky said, “is that you see it’s about the forces. It’s about the inter-nal drive of this kind of human being.”

‘Grimm Legacy’ brings fairy tales to lifekelly tunneystaff writer

Polly Shulman’s The Grimm Legacy takes place in a library. But it’s not just any li-brary; the repository’s items are a unique, a vast collection of objects — from ordinary items such as shoes, chairs and telescopes to more un-usual objects found in the Grimm brothers’ fairy tales.

Elizabeth Rew, a high school student who doesn’t

quite fit in, gets a job at the mysterious repository. The Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle Young Read-er’s program will discuss Elizabeth’s adventures, as well as fairy tales from the Grimm brothers and oth-ers, at 4:15 p.m. today in the Alumni Hall Ballroom.

Elizabeth lands herself a job at the repository with the aid of her social studies teacher, Mr. Mauskopf, who has ties to the repository’s

staff, as well as some of the items stored within.

Shulman experienced a similar event when she took her first job at a library.

“My social studies teacher stopped me in the hallway one day, sort of pointed to me and said, ‘Polly, you look like a girl who needs a job — call this number,’ ” she said.

The New York City library where Shulman found work was of the non-magical type. It did use a system similar to the repository’s pneumonic tubes to carry messages, though.

Elizabeth’s mentor is Mr. Mauskopf, a teacher who is known to be tough on stu-dents. He is a wise, older guide, whom Elizabeth can trust throughout her jour-ney.

“I think every fantasy story needs a wizard,” Schulman said. “There is Merlin, there’s Gandalf, and I liked having the older, grumpier, wise grown-up mentoring the kids.”

The repository holds a wide assortment of special collections. Each of the collec-tions is based around a dif-ferent theme or era. Shulman spent months researching the Grimm’s fairy tales, resulting

in an in-depth portrayal of magical items in the story.

“People say, ‘You’re a nov-elist — you could just make things up,’ ” Shulman said. “But I think it adds depth and fun.”

Shulman’s favorite story from the Brothers Grimm? The same as Elizabeth’s.

“I always had a special fondness for the ‘12 Dancing Princesses,’ ” she said. “I re-ally love the idea that there is a secret passageway in your bedroom that leads to a magical palace where you can dance all night.”

Kaye Lindauer will join the CLSC Young Readers discussion to bring some of the Grimm fairy tales to life. Young Readers are encour-aged to write their own fairy tale or bring a favorite to share. Due to limited space, families of those involved are asked to allow only the young readers to attend the discussions in the ballroom.

While Elizabeth has a dif-ficult time fitting in at her high school, she finds a home at the repository.

Shulman said she often receives mail from readers who identify with Elizabeth because they feel left out and long for a magical place to be a part of.

“I think kids also like that she’s not always so confident, she struggles a little bit with her confidence,” she said. “And I think that they like that she’s kind and that she gets to have adventures. Don’t you wish that you could have access to that library?”

Day two of the three-day Lincoln Ethics seminar will bring Arizona State Univer-sity’s Braden Allenby, profes-sor of civil and environmen-tal engineering and of law, and Amy Landis, associate professor in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment, to the Hall of Philosophy.

At 4 p.m. today, Landis will present her lecture, “Who’s Green and Who’s Just Greenwashing?” which will be followed by Allenby’s “In Praise of Conflict.”

Greenwashing describes corporations attempting to maintain a guise of “going green” without actually im-plementing any meaningful procedures to establish more sustainable practices.

Landis’ areas of expertise — which include life cycle assessment, industrial ecol-ogy, biofuels, biopolymers and biotechnology — are all rooted in sustainability in one way or another. In fu-ture research, Landis hopes to develop multidisciplinary approaches to sustainability.

While Landis will focus on the legitimacy of “green” corporations, Allenby hopes to delve into a more theoreti-cal examination of conflict.

“In general, people tend to view all conflict as undesir-able,” Allenby said. “I would argue that this is too general and that there are clear cases of constructive and destruc-tive conflict.”

To illustrate constructive conflict, Allenby pointed out that innovation always opens channels of conflict between the innovator and those who are threatened by practical or theoretical

developments. This conflict, Allenby argued, is positive, and it’s “at the heart of tech-nological systems that now support billions of people.”

Conversely, Allenby point-ed to the wars in the Demo-cratic Republic of the Congo and Somalia as salient exam-ples of destructive conflict.

“The real question is whether one can begin to de-termine what the critical dif-ferences between construc-tive and destructive conflict are,” Allenby said. “While this question obviously re-quires study, I will conclude that one can begin to at least define some relevant prin-ciples by looking at the way markets and market capital-ism work.”

While Allenby admitted that he’s inevitably a reflec-tion of Western ethics and values, he prefers not to subscribe to one particular ethical system, such as utili-tarianism or Kantian deon-tology.

“I think it is difficult in a complex and rapidly chang-ing world to make the argu-ment that one system, and only one system, has all the answers,” Allenby said. “The

more complicated and rigid a particular ethical tradition is, the more it is liable to be unable to adjust to changing conditions and perspectives. This is not relativism; it is the realism of understand-ing that culture, and humans themselves, evolve, and so must associated systems.”

Allenby believes that it will only be through devel-oping a deeper understand-ing of conflict and ethical problems that currently face industry and the environ-ment that people will be able to solve many of today’s chal-lenging ethical dilemmas.

“After all, consider that the only major country which has lowered its carbon emis-sions over the past decade is the United States ... and that the main reason for that is fracking and increased nat-ural gas production, which are bitterly opposed by en-vironmentalists,” Allenby said. “This isn’t an argument either for or against fracking. It is an indication that we really don’t know what we want, and we’re very bad at balancing different types of risks, costs, and benefits in complex systems.”

The Rev. Joan Brown Campbell’s 14-year tenure as director of the Depart-ment of Religion will end this year. But don’t count her out just yet.

Campbell will speak at 9:15 a.m. Thursday in the Women’s Clubhouse about the crossover between the work of the Department of Religion and that of the Women’s Club. Campbell finds this overlap particu-larly significant, as she was the first female member of the Institution’s senior staff. The talk is sponsored by the Women’s Club as a part of its Chautauqua Speaks lec-ture series.

Though the talk is titled “Reflections,” Campbell said she plans on cover-ing the past and the pres-ent. She hopes to shed light on the challenges many women face in the largely male-dominated ministry field. Campbell said she has made an effort each year to ensure that women preach-ers have been brought to the Institution.

“We’ve made progress in 14 years,” she said, “but I cannot stress enough the importance of [including] women of different reli-gions and colors.”

Campbell will also speak about her successor, the Rev. Robert M. Franklin, whom she said will add “new en-ergy and new ideas” to the program.

“[Franklin] brings a rich-ness to the position and has contacts that will extend Chautauqua’s outreach,”

Campbell said, adding that Franklin will be the first Af-rican-American to serve as the department’s director.

Though she is a trail-blazer for women in reli-gion, Campbell said family is equally important to her; she has three children and eight grandchildren. One of the happiest moments of her religious career, Camp-bell said, was presiding

over the marriage of her oldest grandchild last year.

This will not be Camp-bell’s last collaboration with the Women’s Club this season. In honor of her retirement, a celebra-tion titled “The Many Faces of Joan” will be held Aug. 16. The event, a “roast” of Campbell, will serve as a scholarship fundraiser for the Women’s Club.

For Potter, everything goes back to the 2010 Su-preme Court decision in Citi-zens United v. Federal Election Commission. Although the Supreme Court essentially ruled that corporations are individuals, Potter disagrees.

“When business corpora-tions spend that much mon-ey [on campaigns], they are seeking specific results from government,” Potter said. “It would be malfeasance for them to spend that much money if they didn’t think their shareholders were go-ing to benefit in some par-ticular way.”

Individual donations to a candidate’s campaign or po-litical action committee are limited. A candidate can-not accept more than a cer-tain amount, depending on where the money is going.

But “super PACs,” or in-dependent expenditure-only committees, may raise un-

limited funds from individu-als, corporations, unions and other organizations inde-pendent of a campaign.

This means that more money is up for grabs for politicians, if they’re willing to go after it.

“At its simplest level, we have members of Congress who are paid large salaries for full-time jobs who then spend up to half their day, every day, on fundraising rather than doing the job they’re being paid for,” Pot-ter said.

For Potter, it’s a problem that raises questions on the morality of the current cam-paign finance system. He said one way to address these questions is to distinguish between individual money and corporation money.

“You buy Crest tooth-paste, and you are not in-tending to support a specific set of candidates,” Potter said. “You’re intending to buy toothpaste.”

Individuals can differ-entiate between buying a

product and supporting a candidate because they have different motives when spending money. When they donate money to a campaign, they want to show support for that candidate’s political platform and ideas.

Corporations, on the other hand, can only be motivated by profit. Potter said that a corporate CEO has an obliga-tion to maximize corporate profit.

“Corporate money is only there in an attempt to buy an economic advantage in the marketplace,” Potter said.

He said politicians should be responsible to the people they represent. If politicians are indebted to corporations for their campaigns, then that responsibility may be forgotten.

“If all of their financial support comes from a tiny segment of the population,” Potter said, “and if in order to get that money, they have to spend all of their free time with that tiny segment of the population, then isn’t it

likely that they will end up representing their donors rather than the population at large?”

People have expressed to Potter feelings of helpless-ness, of being stuck with a bad situation. And he decid-ed to do something.

After last year’s presiden-tial election, he drafted the American Anti-Corruption Act. He called it “small-form reform” that takes practical steps to reduce the corrup-tion in campaign finance un-der current legislation. There are nine reforms in total.

The act answers a ques-tion often asked of Potter and his reform lawyers: What sort of solutions would work if Americans had a Congress that was willing to enact them?

“It would actually turn the system on its head,” Pot-ter said. “It would be radi-cal changes, but all of which could be done through cur-rent legislation.”

He will share his artis-tic vision with “An Evening with Alexander Gavrylyuk” tonight at 8:15 p.m. in the Am-phitheater. The program is a study in 19th-century piano compositions: Claude De-bussy’s “Two Arabesques,” Robert Schumann’s “Fanta-sie in C Major” and Modest Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition.”

“Pictures at an Exhibi-tion” is often performed in an orchestral setting using an arrangement by French composer Maurice Ravel, but Gavrylyuk will be performing Mussorgsky’s original arrangement.

He said that he tries to keep the sounds of the or-chestra in mind when he plays.

“It’s possible actually to have many different col-ors by pressing the same key — hundreds of colors,” Gavrylyuk said.

Pressing any of the 88 keys starts a chain reac-tion inside the piano. When Gavrylyuk plays, he manip-ulates the pressure, speed and vibration of his touch to evoke a range of sound.

He likened it to acting. In some ways, it seems more like magic.

“This is what [the artis-tic truth] means: Finding the colors which are so convincing and so enchant-ing that it doesn’t leave any space for doubts,” Gavry-lyuk said.

Finding these musical colors is a thorough and never-ending process for

Gavrylyuk. When he suc-ceeds, he feels rewarded. He said every piece takes on a special meaning for him as he interprets the music.

“We see this music through our own personal prism, or our own personal lens,” Gavrylyuk said. “And the lens is based on our per-sonal life experiences.”

His personal experienc-es have especially shaped his interpretation of the Schumann and Mussorg-sky pieces.

Gavrylyuk said “Pic-tures at an Exhibition” largely inspired him as a child. The might of the mu-sic impressed upon him a magical fairytale. He de-scribed each movement as a colorful, theatrical scene.

When Schumann wrote his fantasy, he used an older composition titled “Ruines” for the first move-ment. He wrote the piece for his beloved, Clara Wieck, from whom he was separated at the time.

Gavrylyuk can relate to that feeling. He said that the experience of being away from his wife Zorica — or Zoki, as he calls her — is present when he per-forms the Schumann piece.

“It’s very, very intimate music,” Gavrylyuk said, “with lots of very fragile, precious feelings that he had.”

Though he has per-formed all around the world, Gavrylyuk is always struck by the warmth and openness of Chautauqua’s audience.

“There are all the other concerts, and then there is Chautauqua,” he said.

On all levels of his analy-sis, Velshi focuses on the hu-man element markets. Mar-kets don’t crash markets, he believes; people do, and par-ticularly those in power.

“That was immorality on such a massive scale,” Velshi said. “And it’s created such damage around the world that we really have to under-stand how to regulate that

and how to govern that.” While Velshi believes

markets generally accom-plish more good than bad, the 2008 financial crisis proved that unfettered mar-kets won’t police themselves.

Velshi stressed the need for an informed populace. A lack of information leads to immoral and inefficient mar-kets, he said.

He referenced the ciga-rette industry. Today, smok-ers are aware of the risks

involved with the habit. But that wasn’t always the case.

“The cigarette companies always knew something you didn’t know,” he said. “The banks always knew some-thing you didn’t know.”

The playing field is lev-eled when consumers have access to the right informa-tion. Only then can markets operate in a way that is ben-eficial — which is the whole point of a free market.

This is why Velshi has

dedicated his life’s work to sharing information as a journalist. The reporting he did on the crashing market and the people evicted from their homes during the fi-nancial crisis showed him what’s at stake.

“I got to see those people, and I got to see the pain,” he said. “To me, this is very real. This isn’t an abstract concept about markets and morality. This is about prosperity for all of us.”

Repicky and Giampietro agreed that the plot itself doesn’t provide much mate-rial to work with. By taking the focus of the story in an-other direction, they could highlight the characters’ motives for the audience.

Giovanni is the force that binds each of the characters together. This is set into mo-tion when he murders Don-na Anna’s father after taking advantage of her. Giovanni’s actions change the lives of those around him, for better or worse.

To allow a greater num-ber of Voice Program stu-dents to perform, three casts were chosen. Each cast will have one performance.

Marlena Malas, chair of the Voice Program, ar-ranged the opera in this way so as to highlight the talent within the program.

At the first stages of re-hearsal, Giampietro worked with one cast while the oth-ers observed. As the casts developed, they rehearsed separately with the direc-tors to allow for more per-sonal training.

“Each one brings some-thing very different to the character,” Giampietro said. “I try to bring what-ever their personality is and mesh it with the character, as opposed to slapping on one thing that all three casts can do.”

The students not only work on the staging and act-ing portions of the opera, but also focus on the language.

Set in Italian, Don Giovanni requires the performers to learn the language and then put that language to music. Additionally, there is no spoken dialogue; the characters sing lines to each other, which can be difficult to master.

It’s not just pronounc-ing everything correctly, Repicky said, “but do they connect with the grammar of the language, the cadence of the language, the way it sounds, the way it flows.”

Faculty member Donald St. Pierre arranged a seven-person orchestra ensemble for the performances.

“It makes a huge dif-ference for singers to play with a piano that’s trying to imitate an orchestra versus actual orchestral colors,” Repicky said. “When you

sing, it’s a different thing altogether. All of this really pushes the young singers to get to the next level and re-ally grow.”

With the challenge of pre-paring three casts, Giampi-etro and Repicky have seen the voice students rise to the occasion and bring some-thing new to the characters they portray.

Although given a short time period to prepare for the performances, the stu-dents are professional in their execution.

“What’s remarkable about it is that they’ve gone through a process,” Repicky said. “It’s all from the inside out, and I think that gives it a lot more integrity for them, and also for the audience.”

As watercolorist Ann Pro-van remembers, it was Nov. 1, 1986, when she and her husband, David, a sculptor, first met at a gallery opening in New York City. They were both artists from California who had migrated east.

“We’ve always been very excited by each other’s work,” Ann said. “We trust each other’s knowledge to provide support for the other person.”

Judy Barie, galleries di-rector at Chautauqua Insti-tution, came across the cou-ple’s work in a small gallery in Cold Spring, N.Y. Barie was interested in the way David’s sculpture and Ann’s watercolor showed together. She immediately thought of their work for the exhibition “Contemporary Couples: A Creative Life Together,” which opens at 3 p.m. today in Strohl Art Center.

“They couldn’t be two more separate media,” Ba-rie said of the couple’s work. “Watercolors are so soft, me-ticulous and feminine, to a certain degree — the hand

has to be that way — while the sculpture is very mascu-line and heavy.”

Although the Provans worked in different media, Barie saw a subtle link in the pieces of each artist.

“We have similar world-views,” David said. “I think that’s what it comes down to — our shared political, cul-

tural and spiritual thread.”David described his work

as wireframe sculptures that allow viewers to see the in-terplay between the front and back of the piece.

One of the pieces current-ly displayed at Strohl Art Center is from his “Theory of the Sacred” series. The piece uses a combination of bent

and straight metal tubes, suggesting the chaos of the universe actually supports its order.

Ann paints overlapping geometric forms, informed by a childhood spent watch-ing her father, a psychologist, develop visual illusion tests.

“Our work is similar enough that we can encour-

age each other,” David said, “but we have our own terri-tories staked out, visually.”

Seeing the Provans’ work reminded Barie of a show concept she had kept in the back of her mind for a couple years: exhibiting profession-al artists whose partners are also artists.

Barie wasn’t interested in

couples who collaborate on single pieces of art; she want-ed to curate “Contemporary Couples” around artists who worked separately but lived together. When Chautauqua Institution’s inter-arts col-laboration The Romeo & Juliet Project was announced, Barie knew the timing was perfect to launch “Contemporary Couples” at the gallery. The visual arts don’t have a direct contribution to The Romeo & Juliet Project in the same way other arts programs do, but this is a way for the depart-ment to still be involved.

With “Contemporary Cou-ples,” Barie focused on repre-senting a variety of media. Eight artists, forming four couples, are participating in the show. After the Provans agreed to participate, Barie found two realistic painters; an abstract painter coupled with an abstract ceramist; and a Western painter with a woman who experiments with wood and frottage, among other things.

Barie most looks forward to the mix of art styles in the show.

“It will be dramatic,” she said.

It took a long time for actor An-drew Weems to truly figure out what he wanted to do. And even though he consid-ers himself to be in the middle of his career, Weems recently had a real-ization of where he wanted to be and what he wanted to be doing.

He has been acting since he was a kid, and recently moved back to New York City from a yearlong stint in Los Angeles. The actor, who has been in a few indepen-dent films, noticed that the industry in LA was a differ-ent type of business — one that he was not accustomed to. For Weems, coming home to NYC was about reaffirm-ing what he loved to be a part of: acting in plays.

“We all want to make money, and you don’t make much money as an actor in the theater,” he said. “I feel like, at this late stage, I finally figured out that this is where I belong and this is what I want to do. Back to New York and search for the next job. It’s not a sudden revelation. It was a slow, rolling realiza-tion over the year.”

Weems is a guest artist in Chautau-qua Theater Com-pany’s production of Clybourne Park, which opens Fri-day at Bratton The-ater.

He moved around as a kid. He was born in South

Korea, but his family relocat-ed to places such as Zambia and Nepal before landing in the United States. While liv-ing in Nepal, a young Weems got his start as a performer, usually acting in school or with amateur theater groups in the British Embassy.

His first role ever: the tur-key boy in A Christmas Carol.

He remembered that his first major part — still with an amateur company — was in the play A Thousand Clowns, in which Weems played an American boy

named Nick. He thinks that one of the reasons he got the part was because he was a close friend of the director’s son. Both were artistically gifted, often putting on plays for the director at sleepovers.

“He thought, ‘That kid is loud and willing to humili-ate himself in front of adults, so maybe he could be an ac-tor,’ ” Weems said. “It was never really much of a ques-tion for me. I knew that, re-ally from a very young age, that I wanted to be a part of this thing.”

Since then, acting just be-came a fluid part of the ac-tor’s life. He said that as soon as he graduated and moved home, he started flipping through The Washington Post looking for auditions. With-in a year, Weems became a

member of the Actor’s Eq-uity Association.

In 2000, Weems was a part of his first Broadway produc-tion, The Green Bird.

He recalled standing be-hind the curtain (he was the first person that the audience saw) and thinking about his mom, who had just passed away. He was thinking about how proud she would be and thinking how great it was to be performing in his first Broadway show.

“It really did feel excit-ing, and then the curtain rose, and it was just like any other play I’d even been in,” he said. “It was just a show; it was not glamorous. I was glad for that, actually. It was just a play.”

Since his Broadway de-but, the actor has worked

steadily around New York City and across the nation at regional theaters. In fact, he has written two solo shows that are loosely based on his life. Namaste Man, which was workshopped with CTC a few years ago, centers on the memory of his parents and growing up in Nepal.

Davis McCallum, the di-rector of Clybourne Park, also directed Weems’ original work when it was performed at Chautauqua.

“I had been an admirer of his work as an actor a long time before that,” McCallum said. “He’s an actor of great imagination and great deli-cacy, and he’s also extremely funny and that’s a combina-

tion that’s very rare. I’m in-spired, and I think the con-servatory actors are as well, by the way he brings him-self, his own life to the play.”

This marks Weems’ fourth time working with CTC. For him, taking on Clybourne Park is another opportunity to do what he loves.

“I like pretending to be other people,” he said. “I’m enough of a narcissist to able to stand in front of people and act stuff out and have them watch me. On the other hand, I also like disappear-ing into characters and the type of people who do plays. To me, that’s the romance of it. It is something I’ve done for a long time.”

For three weeks, instru-mental and piano students in the school of Music have been performing in the Music school Festival Or-chestra, giving student re-citals and attending guest and master classes. Today will kick off the first recit-al in the first phase of the chamber music series. Five student chamber groups will perform at 2 p.m. to-day in McKnight hall.

For students, the cham-ber recitals are a chance to play with a small group in a more intimate setting.

Michael smith, who will play piano on Brahms’ Pia-no Quintet in F-minor, said chamber groups allow mu-sicians to hone their com-munication skills through their instruments.

“I find that it’s extreme-ly valuable when you play with other people that you don’t know … to sit down and meet them for the first time and you just play,” smith said. “I think it real-ly tests your own ability to communicate just through music.”

Brahms’ quintet is one of several standard chamber pieces pianists play over the course of their careers. smith hopes to master the piece and perform it when he returns to the state University of New York at Stony Brook to finish his doctorate in the fall.

Other groups will per-form compositions such as Dmitri shostakovich’s Pia-no Quintet in G-minor, Op. 57. Violist Mira Williams’ group is set to perform the piece.

“It’s very dark and very sad at times,” Williams said. “almost whimsical, but in a weird, twisted way.”

Williams, a sophomore at the Music Institute of Chicago, attended a sum-mer camp in switzerland last year. a group she was performing with practiced next to another group who was playing shostakovich’s quintet.

“We had to stop playing every time they got to this one part,” she said. “It was just gorgeous and full of heartache.”

Williams was excited when she learned she

would have the opportu-nity to perform the piece at Chautauqua.

Violinist Billy Bao will play the piece with Wil-liams. Like Williams, Bao was happy to hear he would be performing shostakov-ich.

“It brings out something in you that you might not think you have, that you might not be able to do, like express that in everyday life,” Bao said. “Basically you just play your heart out, and it just feels awesome while you’re playing it.”

Due to the smaller size of the chamber groups, each musician carries more re-sponsibility in representing his or her instrument. how-ever, this allows for more freedom of expression.

“In a chamber group, it’s only one person to a section, so you really have to express the whole part, whatever you have,” Bao said. “In the orchestra, you can expect other people to lead you, to have the whole sound, but in the chamber group, it’s more about integrality.”

It’s the story of a classic love triangle. Petrouchka loves the Ballerina; the Balle-rina loves the Moor; and the Moor loves, well, himself.

That is how Gary Chryst ex-p l a i n e d the ballet Petrouchka, h a v i n g danced the title role with the Joffrey Bal-let school in New York City in the 1970s, according to an article writ-ten by steve sucato for Dance Studio Life magazine.

sucato, freelance dance journalist, will speak on “The Importance of the Bal-let ‘Petrouchka’ ” at 3:30 p.m. today in the hall of Christ.

The Chautauqua Dance Circle hosted sucato when he gave the same lecture in 2011 and has invited him to share the ballet with Chautauqua once again. sucato’s presen-tation will include a version of the ballet broken into seg-ments.

With music by Igor stravinsky, choreography by Michel Fokine and de-signs by Alexandre Benois, sucato refers to Petrouchka as “ballet’s version of a perfect storm.”

When the russian bal-let Petrouchka premiered in 1911, it was completely dif-ferent from what the dance world was accustomed to seeing.

In the same way that Pab-

lo Picasso changed the art world, the Ballet russes, par-ticularly Petrouchka, changed the ballet world, sucato said. The ballet was revolutionary in its style and movement, as it merged theater and dance.

For the first time, bal-let included “pedestrian” movement, meaning char-acters onstage were moving around realistically within the scene, he said.

The story ballet begins with a carnival scene. a ma-levolent charlatan introduces his dolls to the crowd: Pet-rouchka, the Ballerina and the Moor.

The Moor’s steps are gran-diose and turned-out — a display of his confidence. Petrouchka’s steps are un-pretentious and turned-in, displaying his meekness.

Mainly because a large cast of 100 or more dancers is required, the ballet is not performed often today, su-cato said.

“There’s a lot of ballet productions, for one reason or another, that are lost over time,” sucato said.

he hopes those attending his lecture leave with knowl-edge and appreciation of the ballet and its place in history.

Scooter Parking

New in 2013 is a designated scooter parking area outside the Amphitheater, located adjacent to the Gazebo at the northwest gate. Patrons who are able to access bench seating without the assistance of scooters should park in this area rather than inside the Amphitheater gates to help improve accessibility for others.

“You’ve got to understand that we don’t really read that way,” Brooks’ students told him. “We read to get through the class, but the deep, pene-trative reading, we just don’t have time for.”

Brooks, a prominent col-umnist for The New York Times, gave Tuesday’s 10:45 a.m. morning lecture in the Amphitheater, titled “Moral Geniuses: Public Figures to Admire and Imitate.” It was the second lecture in Week Four’s theme of “Markets, Morals and Social Con-tracts.”

Though Brooks said he was disappointed with his students’ answer, he under-stood their dilemma.

“I sympathize with them,” he said. “They live in an incredibly competitive meritocracy, where the pres-sure on them to succeed and their insecurity about that pressure is fierce.”

Brooks said that society’s emphasis on external devel-opment, rather than on inter-nal or moral development, is worrisome for future genera-tions.

“They are not that devel-oped in moral categories,” he said of today’s youth. “They’re good people, but I worry that if they lead this external life, and no one gives them the categories of an internal life, then some-thing will dissolve along the way.”

Brooks sought to illustrate this idea using a book called The Lonely Man of Faith, by Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik. In the book, the author de-scribes his interpretation of the two sides of Adam. In one account, Adam is given dominion over the world. This side of Adam, which Brooks calls “Adam One,” is ambitious, majestic, creative and successful. The other side of Adam, “Adam Two,” is introvertive and humble, and he wants to be envel-oped by love, meaning, secu-

rity and healing.Brooks compared his stu-

dents at Yale to Adam One. “It’s hard to connect

the world they’re in — the meritocracy, which is about climbing, and student orga-nizations, and about service — to a world that is not about climbing, which is about staying still and looking in-side,” Brooks said.

Brooks attempted to show the Amphitheater audience how they can lead prosper-ous, fulfilling lives by of-fering examples of those he called “moral geniuses.” Brooks suggested these are individuals who managed

to lead satisfying lives by helping others while simul-taneously developing their inner-consciousness.

His first example of a moral genius was Augustine of Hippo, who “had one of the richest internal lives you could possibly imagine.” As a young man, he ran away and joined a group of clever students. He led an ambi-tious, rambunctious life, chasing women and fame. After reminiscing on an in-cident when, as a teenager, he stole from a farmer’s or-chard, Augustine became self-aware.

“He realized that deep in-side, he enjoyed doing bad,” Brooks said.

Augustine felt he needed a change in his life. His moth-er, Monica of Hippo, urged him to convert to Christian-ity. After reading a passage in the Bible, his conversion was complete.

“His epiphany was that you can’t be the solution to your own internal turmoil,” Brooks said. “You have to look outside yourself.”

The second person men-tioned was Frances Perkins, the first woman ever ap-pointed to a presidential cab-inet. Perkins’ “Yankee up-bringing” led her to Mount Holyoke College, where she majored in chemistry, and she later served with Jane Addams at Hull House in Chicago. After witnessing the fire at the Triangle Shirt-waist Factory, Perkins be-came an advocate for work-ers, pressing for tougher legislation at the state and federal levels. This led to her appointment as Secretary of Labor, a post she held from 1933 to 1945.

Perkins had a successful public life, but her private life was shaky. Both her hus-band and her daughter had symptoms of manic depres-sion.

“She exemplifies a life which is an instrument for a purpose — deeply com-mitted, self-effacing, doing whatever you need to do to realize that cause,” Brooks said. “She’s an example of someone who’s worldly but deeply moral.”

The last example Brooks gave was Dorothy Day, a self-critical woman who con-verted to Catholicism and became an activist and jour-nalist later in life.

“Day was always looking inward at her own weak-ness,” Brooks said.

Day led a very passion-ate and internal life, Brooks said. She co-founded rural communes, soup kitchens and settlements. She also founded the Catholic Worker movement and its newspa-per. At the end of her life, she considered writing a memoir but decided against the idea,

thinking it would be too self-glorifying.

“At this moment, you can see the Adam One bowing down to Adam Two,” Brooks said. “Not writing the book, not creating something else … that’s her final piece.”

Brooks said both sides of human nature are in con-stant conflict.

“We live in a world that emphasizes Adam One and doesn’t give us much empha-sis on Adam Two,” Brooks said.

BROOKS: DEVELOPMENT OF INTERNAL MORALS IS CRUCIAL FORTODAY’S YOUTH

Tuesday morning lecture in the Amphitheater.

Today’s youth are not that developed in moral categories. They’re good people, but I worry that if they lead this external life, and no one gives them the categories of an internal life, then something will dissolve along the way.”

— DaviD Brooks

When David Brooks asked his students at Yale University about the last

time they had read a book that changed their lives, they stared at him in complete silence.

DaviD Brooks

op-ed columnist, The New York Times

Editor’s note: This Q&A has been edited for clarity and length.

Q: This questioner asserts that perhaps our coun-

try’s moral dilemma right now is to deal with the enor-mous numbers of people living in extreme poverty. Do you see a moral path to and answer to this dilemma?

A: Well I do think that is a central challenge of our time, the widening inequality. I would say it’s widening both in economic sense, [and] in social sense. In 1964, middle-class, educated-class families and people with less education had basically the same family structure, but now the gap is a chasm. So educated-class people have divorce rates a third lower, obesity rates are a third lower, smoking rates half lower, they give more, they vote more. The most disturb-ing thing is social trust. If you ask people, “Do you trust the people around you?” — this is Robert Putnam’s work at Harvard — the people in the educated class are very trust-ing; people less educated, for a good reason, less trusting. … Putnam’s work shows the aver-age college-educated couple invests $5,000 more per year per kid, just in extracurricular activities, than the high school-educated. So that’s the oboe practice, the travel teams, the SAT prep, and that just widens things even more. So fixing that is a core problem, and the only things I will say is that there is no one magic lever, but I would be for … family partnerships to help disorga-nized families, very aggressive preschool, charter schools, national service programs to bring the two classes together. There has just got to be a zil-lion, a whole menu of things that you have to do all at once. You can’t afford to do the stuff for the young families if so much of our federal money is going to affluent seniors. For those who applaud, I thank you, for those who didn’t, you’re probably older than me, and I can outrun you.

“We are talking about grace; the Christian gospel is about grace,” said the Rev. Tony Campolo. Campolo was the preacher for the 9:15 a.m. Tuesday morning worship

service. His sermon was titled “The Grace of the Kingdom,” and the Scripture was Luke 7:41-43.

“Bono was asked by Larry King what he found attractive about Christianity,” Campolo said. “Bono answered, ‘With Christianity there is no karma.’ ”

Campolo said that it is not righteousness that makes one acceptable to God.

“What makes us acceptable is Jesus and what he did on the cross,” Campolo said. “Jesus paid it all.”

Campolo told the story of a bishop from Denver. He was upset with a woman who gained notoriety for claiming to have a conversation with Jesus every Tuesday at 9 a.m. She had a following, and the bishop finally decided to confront her.

The bishop said, “I will be convinced you are for real if you ask Jesus to tell you the three sins I confessed this morning.”

The woman lowered her head in prayer, and when she raised it again the bishop asked if she had spoken with Jesus. She said she had. When the bishop asked her if Jesus had named the sins, the woman answered, “Jesus said, ‘I forget.’ ”

“This is the essence of the gospel,” Campolo said.At the time of the Last Judgment, there will not be a book

from which humanity’s terrible sins will be read aloud, Campolo said.

“Our sins are blotted out, ‘remembered no more,’ ‘all things are made new,’ ” he said. “There is no karma in the gospel.”

“[Grace] is for when love is unexpected, when forgiveness is not anticipated,” Campolo said. “John Wayne, at the end of his life, was on ‘Larry King Live,’ and King asked him if he was afraid to die. Wayne said, ‘I am afraid I am not good enough.’ I wanted to be in the studio and say, ‘You don’t have to be good enough.’ ”

Campolo was one of the ministers who counseled former President Bill Clinton following the Lewinsky scandal.

“I got a lot of hate letters,” he said. “One Baptist minister wrote and said [Clinton] doesn’t deserve the grace of God. Whoa! Grace comes even when we are unlovable. ‘Nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.’ If you knew all there was to know about me, you would not come to hear me preach.”

Campolo speaks to many college students who often tell him, “I don’t go to church anymore because it is full of hypocrites.”

“I say, come on in, you will fit right in with the rest of us hypocrites,” Campolo said. “The point is that we are not perfect, but are we on our way, we are taking steps in the right direction. We will receive grace because of what Jesus did on the cross.”

Campolo said this gift is free, but it does obligate Chris-

tians to do one thing. “When someone does something that wonderful, we

have an obligation to respond,” he said. “Grace frees us from being super pious; we know our sins are forgiven and forgotten. But we need to respond.

“We must receive grace and we must give grace. May you receive the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God the Father — not because of who you are, but because of who [God] is. That’s called gospel.”

The Rev. William N. Jackson presided. During the pastoral prayer, he offered prayers for the families of Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman and for the nation. Callie Tanner from the International Order of the King’s Daughters and Sons read the Scripture. She is from Parkersburg, W.Va., and studies English at Marshall University. The Motet Choir, under the direction of Jared Jacobsen, organist and worship and sacred music coordinator, sang “The Eyes of All Wait Upon Thee” by Jean Berger.

katie mclean | staff photographerWashington Post columnist E.J. Dionne speaks to a large Hall of Philosophy crowd for the Interfaith Lecture Series on Monday afternoon.

“i think distorting lan-guage in this way concedes what should not be conceded — that the market represents the one and only proper mea-sure of public action,” he said.

Speaking at 2 p.m. Mon-day in the Hall of Philosophy, Dionne opened Week Four’s interfaith lecture Series on “Markets and Morals.” He is a columnist for The Washing-ton Post, senior fellow at the Brookings institution and a professor at georgetown University. His most recent book is titled Our Divided Political Heart: The Battle for the American Idea in an Age of Discontent.

The problem with the United States, he argued, is that it has strayed from the traditional balances between markets and government and between individualism and community.

“We have not focused enough on how the liberty we prize depends upon our willingness to come to the defense of each other’s lib-erty,” Dionne said. “How liberty depends on strong communities, energetic gov-ernment and a concern for the common good.”

The Declaration of inde-pendence begins with an individualistic sentiment de-scribing a person’s inalien-able right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. However, in its conclusion, the founders pledge their lives, their fortunes and their honor to one another. This demonstrates for Di-onne that the Founding Fa-thers understood they could not protect individual liberty without working together.

But the country’s tra-ditional balances were re-placed by “radical individu-alism” during the gilded Age, Dionne said, the period between the end of the Civil War and the turn of the 20th century. The balances were later restored, with presi-dents like Woodrow Wil-son, Franklin D. roosevelt, Harry S. Truman and John F. Kennedy supporting the idea that markets work only when subjected to moral limits. Dionne argued that this led to the success and prosperity of the U.S. in the 20th century.

“government grew, but so did individual liberty,” he said. “The state assumed new roles, but individual op-portunity expanded. new regulations … protected the air, the water, the integrity of food and drugs, the safety of workplaces and consumer products. And American

capitalism flourished.”Dionne said the language

of today’s marketplace is dominating public discussion. This is a sign that the balance has once again shifted.

“We are at a point where any action that might seem good or wise on other grounds must nonetheless be defended in the market’s terms,” he said.

But Dionne doesn’t be-lieve that every issue should be measured on the same scale. returning to the exam-ple of immunizing children, he said doing so is good, whether a market analysis justifies its economic value or not.

Another problem with the shift to market language is that it delegitimizes moral arguments for action.

“Appeals to moral argu-ments are made to seem soft when compared to the sup-posedly hard-headed assess-ments of the market and the economist,” Dionne said. “As a result, advocates of a par-ticular moral course gradu-ally stop making moral ar-guments at all, or they make them apologetically.”

He thinks that it is actu-ally soft-headed to abandon strong moral arguments in favor of whatever claims are in fashion. in this case, Di-onne said, these are claims all about the market.

He wants to give morals a good name again.

“if someone says he or she is going to talk about moral-ity, most people these days are certain they are going to hear a commentary on sexu-ality,” Dionne said.

But organized pay, leave time, health care and child care strongly affect the abil-ity of families to cope eco-nomically and to stay togeth-er, he said. Thus, supporting families through these ser-vices is no less a moral ques-tion than the current issue of abortion.

“What needs to be op-posed is not the market itself,” Dionne said, “but

claims that the market can do things that it can’t.”

Those in the marketplace measure the potential for profit, and can only be ex-pected to solve problems that will pay out. For exam-ple, if there is no reasonable expectation for profit to be earned from selling health insurance to poor Ameri-cans who cannot afford the premiums, market partici-pants will move on to places where they can make money — probably to healthy and wealthy Americans who can afford health insurance.

Markets are insufficient, Dionne said. The market de-pends on the idea that there is such a thing as the public good, and requires the re-inforcement of honesty and openness.

“As the philosopher Fran-cis Fukuyama has said, [mar-kets] depend on trust … And trust is built when actors in the marketplace know that they can deal with another whose values include virtues that existed long before capi-

talism became dominant,” Dionne said.

Trust is also built when fair rules govern a marketplace, he said. Those who act in the market need to understand that it serves public needs, not simply private ones.

“What i hope everyone will think about this week are these three propositions,” Dionne said. “First, that capitalist society depends on non-capitalist values to hold together and to prosper; sec-ond, that a market economy depends on non-market val-ues to function properly; and then, third, these values in many cases come from a long way back.”

Dionne: ‘liberty depends on strong communities, energetic government and a concern for the common good’

Is immunizing children against disease an investment in human capital? E.J. Dionne believes that it is. But he also believes that immunizing children is a

moral issue, not something that should be understood in market language.

Chautauqua Conversationscolumn by john ford

Paul Womack, 66, offered a good cup of coffee and comfort-able wicker chair on the porch of the Hurlbut Church manse on Pratt Avenue, where he has resided for the past five years. This season will mark Womack’s last on the

grounds as pastor of Chautauqua’s United Methodist Church; he plans to retire as a minister next spring. In his easy, Tennessee drawl, Womack reflected on a life of war and peace and trying to bridge the gap between brutality and humanity.

Early life and college

my father graduated from high school in 1942, and he was drafted within the year. He and my mother married in June 1943, and i was just down in tennessee to celebrate their 70th anniversary. i told them they both deserved med-als. my father went overseas in 1944. He had worked for the railroad, so they made him part of a transportation unit, running trains in Belgium and then into Germany. He came home in early ’46, and i was born later that same year — the second of seven children. it was a typical southern ten-nessee upbringing. church was a part of the week; citizen-ship was a part of the value system. i was very inspired by [John F.] Kennedy when he was elected president in 1960. We lived for a couple of years in Huntsville, Ala., home of the Redstone Arsenal rocket development program. i had classmates who were Germans, and their fathers worked on these big rockets. you had a sense of the space race and a nationalistic fervor. this was the civil rights era. if you got involved in any of it, you had a sense of participating in his-tory. the early ’60s were epoch-making.

i was picked to represent our high school class on gradu-ation day, so i gave a speech in may 1964. i have a copy of the speech. i did mention Vietnam, so at least it was on my radar screen. I went off to college, Middle Tennessee State [university], a land-grant school, so you had to take [Reserve Officers’ Training Corps instruction] for the first two years. I hated ROTC. Shining shoes, wearing these uniforms, dress-ing up to drill, that sort of thing. Later in college, after i left Rotc, the head of the military science department said to me, “Paul, that war won’t be over when you graduate. you should have some control over your destiny.” So I listened to him and went back into Rotc and got commissioned. And after graduating in 1968, off I went to Fort Bragg, N.C., in the military intelligence branch i had chosen.

Vietnam

i wound up at Fort Bliss in El Paso, texas, where i stud-ied the Vietnamese language for nine months. it is a tough language. i left for Vietnam on oct. 15, 1969. Flying to my duty station in cu chi, i was impressed by the number of fishing holes I saw below. Someone mentioned that these were actually bomb craters. i began interrogating prisoners. i felt instinctively that we would get more information from kindness than cruelty. We were looking for short-term tacti-cal intelligence. We’d have periods of time with no activity, then things would go crazy. the expansion of the war into cambodia was the most hectic period. i saw some incidents at a South Vietnamese army base. I was not prepared for the brutality I saw there. Let’s just say the South Vietnamese interrogated differently than I did.

Somewhere later along the way, I interrogated this old

man who had been fighting since the ’30s. As I sometimes did, i tried to get a sense for who this man was. As we talked, he told me that first the French came, then the Japa-nese came, then the French returned, then the Americans arrived. i remember he looked at me and said, “We can wait longer than you can.” that stayed with me. i reported to my superior officer that evening and he asked me what i learned. i said i learned we are going to lose. All of that, together with the horror of the May 1970 Kent State shoot-ings, convinced me to give up my law school plans and attend seminary.

The church and the Iraq wars

i had planned earlier to go to law school and then use my degree to help poor people; i entered the ministry instead. i got a master of Divinity in 1973 from Vanderbilt university and requested an urban ministry. i wanted to bring together people from diverse backgrounds. They sent me to Buffalo, N.Y. While serving as pastor at three different churches, i got [a master of Arts] in religious studies from canisius [college] in 1978 and a doctorate in ministry from colgate-Rochester [Crozer Divinity School] in 1986. My wife is from chautauqua county, and we met and married during this period. We have three daughters.

Anyhow, in the late 1980s i was approached to join the [U.S.] Army Reserve as a chaplain. I thought maybe I had some wisdom to share, so i went back into the reserves. i was 42. At the processing center, some kid said, “i didn’t know we took guys as old as you.” i went to [operation] Desert Storm. We were based in Kuwait and Iraq. For me, a particularly traumatic moment there was identifying the dead body of my tentmate, a medical doctor. i came back more convinced than ever that you have to try to change the world at the level of the local church. the visionaries of the civil rights movement came out of local church communities.

i stayed in the church, and in Rochester, n.y., i became immersed in the interfaith, ecumenical world. i stayed in the reserves, too, and after the 11th of September, 2001 — I cannot say the words 9/11 very easily, i’m afraid — i called all the interfaith people i knew in the Rochester area and said, “We have to get together as soon as we can.” … We arranged a meeting at the local mosque. We issued a public statement to the community, endorsed by Jews, muslims, Christians. I believe it was one of the very first such state-ments issued anywhere in the country.

Still in the reserves, I got called up, went home, back and forth. i was in missouri and new Jersey for several months, each at Army bases. in late summer 2004, we in the Rochester area got mobilized and we went to iraq that September. I was in Iraq for about three months.

two things happened. one, i got pretty sick. two, i went through a spiritual crisis, precipitated, i suppose, by bad incidents with some iraqi prisoners of war and the deaths of some people who were close to me. in iraq i was given the opportunity to knock on the gates of hell. i looked in and found it’s full of ice, frozen from an absence of pas-sion. i felt bad coming home early, but people told me i had done my duty. i worked hard back in the states for six more months, counseling families who had lost loved ones over there, presiding over funerals. i retired from the [Army Reserve] seven years ago as a full colonel.

Coming to Chautauqua

i came to chautauqua in the summer of 2008, recom-mended by the bishop of the district conference of the united methodist church. i was excited to come here. As i reflect somewhat on my time here, I see Chautauqua as a collection of communities occupying a common ground. As an outsider, i’m not sure that i can see a common vision. i am viewed by some here as a person with a unique personal history, and, by some, not so much. that’s how we all view each other anyway, isn’t it? Off-season, Hurlbut Church is a center of worship for many in the area — many of whom live outside the grounds. During the season, we have an 8:30 [a.m.] service Sunday mornings, 30 minutes long, for prayer and communion. We might average 20 people in attendance. We are a small faith community here. i’d say Hurlbut is a typical northeast, Protestant church.

many in the congregation have worked very hard to make the building more versatile and accessible, and that is wonderful. But we are not the center of religious life dur-ing the season, and i don’t know that we need to be. my dream for Hurlbut’s building, during the season especially, has been for it to become the locus for significant religious activity that may now be held in other places. there are a lot of interfaith activities that go on, and they put them where they can. they want interfaith work to be a big part of the Chautauqua culture. Can you pull this off for just nine weeks of the year? i sure hope so. i am personally very in-vested in seeing the institution succeed in this area. i think all religions can be positively influenced by what others are thinking. i am still very excited by chautauqua’s potential for ecumenical growth.

Next steps

With the uniqueness of chautauqua institution and this area, i really hope my successor can arrive before the start of the 2014 Season. He or she could get to know some key people — for example, on the Department of Religion staff — before the frenzy of the season begins. We won’t know about my successor until late winter. of course, my plans could always change. that’s why i say my retirement plans are “unofficial/official.”

my plan is to retire “home” to chattanooga, tenn., where my family and my parents are. i need to spend time with them. my wife, natalie Hanson, will remain as pastor [at] christ First united methodist church in Jamestown, n.y. i’ll be up here a lot. our birthdays are near the christmas season, so i won’t forget how to shovel snow, that’s for sure.

Hurlbut pastor Womack eyes retirement, reflects on Chautauqua

natalie mayanStaff Writer

Bright street lights are a great way for big cities to in-crease visibility and reduce crime. But what are those lights doing on the grounds of chautauqua institution?

Bill neches, a retired pe-diatric cardiologist with no background in lighting, is in the middle of his fourth year trying to answer that question.

As chair of the chautau-qua Property owner As-sociation’s outdoor Light-ing committee, he has been able to learn from ex-perts and has become very knowledgeable about light-ing. He will be holding an outdoor lighting seminar from 3 to 4 p.m. today in Smith Wilkes Hall.

“outdoor lighting is an important facet of being in chautauqua,” neches said. “it’s not only important to property owners, but [to] every single individual who walks the streets of chau-tauqua at night.”

the committee is look-ing to serve the community by finding lights that il-luminate the streets while reducing glare, he said. With uneven pavement and bricks, glare can seriously impair visibility and cause accidents. it is also impor-tant to those on the com-mittee that the lights are dark-sky friendly, meaning they illuminate the ground but do not take away from star visibility.

“our purpose is to put in some demonstration lights that are period fix-tures that look like they belong in the early 20th century,” neches said.

the only lights owned and operated by chau-tauqua institution are the globes on Bestor Plaza and the lights along the Vincent Brick Walk. national Grid,

the international energy company, owns almost all other lights on the institu-tion grounds, neches said.

the cobra head mercury vapor lights owned by na-tional Grid are discontin-ued and will need to be re-placed once they burn out, neches said. the company does not use LED lights, in-stead choosing bright, high-pressure sodium lights that create extreme glare.

“it’s great for a turnpike intersection, but it’s not re-ally pleasant for a chautau-qua street,” neches said.

chautauquan terry mc-Gowan, a lighting designer, serves on neches’ commit-tee. the committee also in-cludes naomi miller, a light-ing designer who works for the oregon Department of Energy, and Rita Koltai, a lighting designer and nech-es’ sister. these three com-mittee members attended the “Lightfair” in Philadel-phia this past April, evalu-ating every light that would be available to them. All of the lighting experts will be on the grounds during Week Eight.

Last year, the commit-tee installed a modern light fixture on Bestor Plaza in front of Logan Hall. it uses metal halide technology, meaning the light shines upward to a grid, and the grid then shines down-ward. compared to other lights found around the grounds, one can look di-rectly at the grid and not be blinded.

two other demonstration lights were put up this sea-son that used LED technolo-gy. unfortunately, the lights had too much glare and did not satisfy the committee, neches said.

these lights were re-placed with LED lights from neri, an italian manufac-turer. Although these still had some glare, the commit-

tee is hopeful that a frosted lens will reduce it. the great thing about LED lights is their long life-span, neches said — they are expected to last at least 17 years.

currently, the commit-tee is placing demonstration lighting around the grounds to get feedback from chau-tauqua homeowners and visitors. the committee con-ducted a survey last season and received almost 400 responses. Approximately 86 percent of the responses were in support of the com-mittee’s proposed lighting changes, neches said.

the committee’s plan is to choose the best dem-onstration light after this season and replace the nine lights on Pratt Av-enue between Ramble and Hurst Avenues with the new light. they would also place an additional three lights on the grounds. it is an expensive project, neches said; with each unit costing around $1,400, it would probably be at least a $25,000 project.

neches also explained the United States Depart-ment of Energy’s “GAtE-WAy Demonstration” projects, which are ways to evaluate LED lights and their commercial feasibil-ity. All but one of these projects have been done on highways and parking lots of big cities, he said. chau-tauqua, being unique for many reasons, including being on the national Reg-ister of Historic Places, has been asked by the Depart-ment of Energy to do one of these projects.

in addition to today’s seminar, neches also hosts an evening walk-about at 9 p.m. every Sunday. He en-courages those interested to meet him on Bestor Plaza to learn more about the light-ing situation and to view the demonstration lights.

Area picnics hosted by representatives from the chautauqua Property own-ers Association will be tak-ing place across the grounds from 5:30 to 7 p.m. tonight.

Barbara Brady serves as the cPoA secretary this sea-son and is coordinating the

picnics. She said the area pic-nics are open to renters, prop-erty owners and their guests.

“the goal for these picnics is community outreach and goodwill,” Brady said in an email. it is an opportunity for neighbors to get together and get to know each other.

the institution grounds are divided into 10 areas. With a few areas combining,

there will be a total of seven picnics taking place today.

the cPoA provides $150 to each area representative, and they can spend the allot-ted funds in whichever way they choose. Brady said each area does things differently, but generally picnickers are encouraged to bring an as-signed dish or beverage and blankets or chairs.

George Gershwin finished writing his Concerto in f in a practice shack on the Chau-tauqua institution grounds in 1925. at 7:30 p.m. this sunday in elizabeth s. lenna Hall, mere yards from that practice shack, Herb Keyser and Bette Butler will perform some of the composer’s greatest works in a fundraising event titled

“The Glory of Gershwin.”The event is sponsored by

the Chautauqua Women’s Club. a donation of $50 is suggested for audience mem-bers. some of the event’s pro-ceeds will go to scholarships for the arts.

This will be the second season Keyser and Butler have collaborated with the Women’s Club on a fundrais-ing event, and they couldn’t be happier to have an encore.

“it’s a great way to contin-ue contributing to the Wom-en’s Club scholarship fund,” Keyser said of the event.

a decade ago, Keyser and Butler began touring on cruise ships to share the music of famed Broadway performers. Their repertoire includes irving Berlin and Cole Porter, as well as ste-phen sondheim and andrew lloyd Webber — the two composers they honored in

last year’s fundraiser. Butler plays piano and sings dur-ing their show, while Keyser shares the history of the mu-sical piece and its composer.

The act will combine mu-sic, storytelling, history and bravado. and as a special treat, Keyser has baked his well-known “chocolate sur-prises” for the audience at sunday’s show.

Butler, Keyser present ‘Glory of Gershwin’ fundraiser

The Crawford N. and May sellstrom Bargar lectureship in Business and economics and the Robert s. Bargar Me-morial lectureship supports today’s morning lecture fea-turing Trevor Potter.

Crawford Bargar was a Jamestown, N.Y., resident and businessman, serving for 40 years as vice president and manager of the Jamestown division of the s.M. flick-inger Company, a wholesale food distributor. as a Chau-tauqua enthusiast, Mr. Bar-gar chaired the Chautauqua fund drive for Jamestown and the surrounding area during the institution’s near-bankruptcy and reorganiza-tion from 1933 to 1936. Under his leadership, Jamestown and southern Chautauqua County businessmen were

inspired to contribute a sig-nificant portion of the funds raised to save the institution.

Mrs. May sellstrom Bargar was a graduate pianist from the sherwood school of Music in Chicago and graced many concert stages, including the institution’s amphitheater. she taught piano for several summers and participated in institution activities during her lifetime. she was among the women who attended a White House reception given by former President frank-lin d. Roosevelt in Washing-ton, d.C., for members of the Chautauqua Women’s Club.

Robert s. Bargar, the son of Crawford N. and May sell-strom Bargar, was a graduate of Jamestown High school. He attended the Wharton school of finance at the University

of Pennsylvania, graduat-ing in 1941. He attended the University of Pennsylvania’s engineering school, receiving a postgraduate certificate in production engineering.

Robert succeeded his father as the resident vice president and general man-ager of the s.M. flickinger Company, for which he was employed for 40 years. He was very involved in the community, serving as presi-dent of the Jamestown area Chamber of Commerce and as chairman of the southern Chautauqua County chapter of the american Red Cross.

Hembree Fund supports Velshi lectureThe Myra Baker low and

Katharine low Hembree family fund provides fund-ing for today’s interfaith lec-ture by ali Velshi.

Kay Hembree was born in Tarkio, Mo., in 1918. she was the first child of Myra and Olan low, who were farm-ers, fond readers, devout Methodists and graduates of Tarkio College.

Kay graduated from Tarkio High school at age 16 and from Oklahoma City University at 19. in the midst of the Great depression she worked as treasurer, reg-istrar and bookkeeper at a large vocational high school

in Oklahoma City. it was in Oklahoma City that she met the ambitious electrical engi-neer, Howard Hembree, who became her husband and lifelong companion.

in her quiet way, Kay was a woman of firsts. In 1946, seeing no day care facilities in her area for busy mothers, she started the first day care program in fairfax, Va. lat-er, in 1969, she helped spear-head the first integrated va-cation Bible school, bringing together the children of ur-ban and suburban Methodist churches in the Rock days program held in Rock Creek Park, Washington, d.C.

for more than 40 years, Kay generously contributed her intelligence, passion and organizational talents to the Methodist Church. she was president of the United Methodist Women at st. Paul’s United Methodist Church in Kensington, Md., and then went on to serve as an officer on the district and conference levels of the Unit-ed Methodist Women. she served on church adminis-trative boards and commit-tees, taught sunday school and managed and modern-ized church libraries.

in 1969, Kay graduated cum laude with a master’s

degree in religious educa-tion from Wesley Theologi-cal seminary in Washington, d.C. Kay’s love of learning attracted her to Chautau-qua, which was introduced to her by her mother, who spent time at the institution into her 80s. Kay carried on the tradition by celebrat-ing her 80th birthday on the grounds, surrounded by family and friends.

surviving Kay are her daughter, laura Hembree, of New York City, and her son, Gilbert Hembree, of Grand Blanc, Mich.
