SUMMARY:Guided Meditation & Spiritual Healing Clinic with Yasuko Kasaki & CRS Healers
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to invite you back to CRS in person for an afternoon of meditation and healing! Together\, let’s share stillness and peace of mind. \nBring any issue you are facing right now — physically\, emotionally\, mentally\, and/or spiritually. With eyes closed (you will be seated and a healer will stand nearby; no touching is involved)\, a CRS healer\, trained in A Course in Miracles and spiritual reading/healing\, will observe you with his inner sight\, free of any judgments\, as your truly are\, a perfect shining spirit. Together\, will ask the Holy Spirit (or Inner Guide if you prefer) to bring us directly to whatever seed thought is causing your current issues and ask for guidance about how your spirit really wants to make use of your present situation for its growth and sharing of love. After about 10 minutes of meditation\, we will share the inspirational guidance that we receive. \nSuggested Donation $20 cash. No one turned away due to lack of funds.\nRSVP REQUIRED to etsuko@crsny.org\nProof of vaccination is not required but please wear a mask while present. And if you have any COVID/cold symptoms\, please do not come this time.  \nWe share healing quietly and provide you with an opportunity to come to rest\, reflect\, and remember who you truly are\, in a supportive\, non-judgmental\, meditative environment. We’d like to offer you an opportunity to experience stillness of mind and peace so that you can return to harmony with your true nature and purpose. Then you will find that rather than needing “solutions” to “problems” you will realize that you have no problems except those that you project. \nWe call this spiritual healing but it is not religious nor connected with any church or group. It is simply a practice of meditating together on our true nature and connecting with universal spirit/energy or what you will. \nA Note About the Role of Words in Healing: “Strictly speaking\, words play no part at all in healing. The motivating factor is prayer\, or asking. What you ask for you receive. But this refers to the prayer of the heart\, not to the words you use in praying. Sometimes the words and the prayer are contradictory; sometimes they agree. It does not matter. God does not understand words\, for they were made by separated minds to keep them in the illusion of separation. Words can be helpful\, particularly for the beginner\, in helping concentration and facilitating the exclusion\, or at least the control\, of extraneous thoughts. Let us not forget\, however\, that words are but symbols of symbols. They are thus twice removed from reality….” — A Course in Miracles Manual for Teachers\, Section 21 \n“Since only the mind can be sick\, only the mind can be healed. Only the mind is in need of healing.” —”PSYCHOTHERAPY: Purpose\, Process and Practice\,”Supplements to A Course in Miracles

SUMMARY:INTERWOVEN Ensemble:  Ami Concert Series Vol. 2
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents the second of three concerts of AMI\, a new series of chamber concerts by the international ensemble INTERWOVEN in the award-winning White Room at CRS. The concert will take place on Saturday\, October 8 at 7:30 pm and will feature gamin (piri/saenghwang) with Alex Fortes (violin)\, Keiko Tokunaga (violin)\, and Ana Kim (cello)\, performing compositions by Ki Young Kim and Theodore Wiprud as well as New York premieres by William Cooper and gamin. \nThe Korean piri and saenghwang are small instruments capable of producing surprisingly loud\, earthy\, and otherworldly sounds. The Korean concept of pitch is quite variable – any note can be a gesture with rising or falling attack\, middle\, and release. This program pairs two compositions by Korean composers with two by composers from the West\, each of whom was inspired to bring together the differing sounds and conventions of Korean woodwinds and western strings in distinctly different and thrilling ways\, expanding the possibilities of each. \nTickets are $30 and are available online through eventbrite.com and at the door for cash only\, if not sold out. Seating is limited and includes floor seating on blankets. All patrons must show proof of vaccination at the door in order to be admitted\, no exceptions. In addition\, masks must be worn throughout. \nFounded by Grammy-winner Keiko Tokunaga\, INTERWOVEN is a chamber ensemble whose mission is to bring together the sounds from different places and time. The ensemble name derives from the idea that music making is like creating a tapestry\, woven together with threads that represent and celebrate diverse origins\, traditions and materials. \nAmi means “to knit” in Japanese and “friend” in many Romance languages. By bringing together musicians from different cultural backgrounds to play western and non-western music\, traditional and contemporary\, side by side\, INTERWOVEN likewise hopes to introduce patrons of different backgrounds to the wonders and commonalities to be found in unfamiliar traditions\, to inspire new friendships\, and to strengthen our cross-cultural connections. \nDeep listening forms the foundation of the practice and programming of CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing). Free from distractions such as food and drink service\, we share these opportunities to listen deeply with you\, that we may let go of what we know or think\, and simply experience. \nThe first concert in the series will take place on September 24 and will feature Yoko Reikano Kimura (koto) performing works by Grammy and Oscar winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto and others. The third concert will occur on October 29 and will feature Andy Lin (erhu/viola)\, performing Chen Yi‘s Fiddle Suite for String Quartet and other compositions. \nTICKET LINK:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/interwoven-ensemble-ami-concert-series-vol-2-tickets-404303722317\n \nCOVID POLICY: \nProof of full vaccination is required to enter\, no exceptions. Masks must be worn throughout. Seating is limited and includes seating on the floor. Please do not come if you are symptomatic. Ask for a refund instead or donate your ticket. \nVENUE LOCATION:\nThe White Room at CRS\n123 4th Ave FL3\nNew York\, NY 10003\n212-677-8621 \nDIRECTIONS:\nCRS is located on the 3rd floor of a walk-up building above Think Coffee\, between 12th & 13th streets\, one block east of The Strand Bookstore.

He can also be heard on a forthcoming album with the Henschel Quartett and pianist Donald Berman featuring the music of Chris Theofanidis. \nFortes holds a strong interest in finding new contexts in which to experience familiar music. His arrangements of Schubert lieder and chamber music were hailed by the Boston Globe as “uniformly resourceful and complementary…smart\, subtle.” In May 2016\, A Far Cry premiered his arrangement with Sarah Darling of Bach’s Goldberg Variations in collaboration with pianist Simone Dinnerstein. \nA strong advocate for the importance of social and civic engagement\, Alex spent a year working as an administrator and playing for the Longwood Symphony\, an orchestra associated with Boston’s medical community that uses its performances to raise funds and awareness for medical nonprofits. In May 2010\, he was chosen by former U.S. Senator and New School President Bob Kerrey to be the student speaker at the New School’s commencement ceremony\, where he spoke about the importance of interdisciplinary cooperation and civic engagement for fostering innovation and strong communities. \nAlex has participated in educational residencies in both English and Spanish related to entrepreneurship\, music performance and education\, at colleges and public schools throughout the United States.

SUMMARY:Saxophonist Caroline Davis:  Oscillations
DESCRIPTION:Please join us in the award-winning White Room at CRS on Sunday\, October 2\, 2022 at 5pm for a discussion and live performance by acclaimed saxophonist and scholar Caroline Davis\, who has been investigating the therapeutic use of sounds modeled on brain waves. \nTickets are $20 ($10 for students and seniors) and are available in advance from Eventbrite and at the door (cash only). \nDiscussion: Oscillations is an immersive experience encouraging synchronicity through the study of brain rhythms. Simultaneous patterns in the brain create a complex scene of wild oscillations in our bodies and minds. Given research in neuroscience\, the hope is that oscillating rhythms can provide a new sense of focus and clarity\, similar to a dream state. Anecdotal evidence suggests that for some listeners it may reveal new ways of hearing ourselves and the world providing both comfort\, hope\, and healing. \nPerformance: Caroline Davis will perform a solo saxophone set inspired by research on oscillations in the brain. Watch her last video in the series for a sneak peak: \n \nABOUT CAROLINE DAVIS \nMobile since her birth in Singapore\, composer and saxophonist Caroline Davis’s music covers a wide range of styles\, owed to her shifting environment as a child.

SUMMARY:INTERWOVEN Ensemble:  Ami Concert Series Vol. 1
DESCRIPTION:CRS is pleased to present the first of three concerts of AMI\, a new series of chamber concerts by the international ensemble INTERWOVEN in the award-winning White Room at CRS. The first concert will take place on Saturday\, September 24 at 7:30 pm and will feature Yoko Reikano Kimura (koto/shamisen) with Keiko Tokunaga (violin) and Hikaru Tamaki (cello) performing compositions by Japanese and western composers: \n\n\nDaron Hagen: “Cavatina\,” the second movement of “Cantabile”\nElizabeth Brown: “The Secret Life of Birds”\nKen Ueno: “Tsuki no Uta” (Song of the Moon)\nMichael Ippolito: “Strange Loops: IV. The Stonecutter”\nSeihō Kineya: “Tsuki no En” from the Noh play Mii-dera Temple\nThomas Osborne: Tumbling From the Ninth Height of Heaven\n\n\nFounded by Grammy-winner Keiko Tokunaga\, INTERWOVEN is a chamber ensemble whose mission is to bring together the sounds from different places and time. The ensemble name derives from the idea that music making is like creating a tapestry\, woven together with threads that represent and celebrate diverse origins\, traditions and materials. \nAmi means “to knit” in Japanese and “friend” in many Romance languages. By bringing together musicians from different cultural backgrounds to play western and non-western music\, traditional and contemporary\, side by side\, we likewise hope to introduce patrons of different backgrounds to the wonders and commonalities to be found in unfamiliar traditions\, to inspire new friendships\, and to strengthen our cross-cultural connections. \nTickets are $30 and are available online through eventbrite.com and at the door for cash only\, if not sold out. Seating is limited and includes floor seating on blankets. All patrons must show proof of vaccination at the door in order to be admitted\, no exceptions. In addition\, masks must be worn throughout. \nDeep listening forms the foundation of the practice and programming of CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing). Free from distractions such as food and drink service\, we share these opportunities to listen deeply with you\, that we may let go of what we know or think\, and simply experience. \nThe second concert in the series will take place on October 8 and will feature the Korean wind player gamin with two violins and viola performing the music of Ki Young Kim\, Theodore Wiprud\, William Cooper\, and gamin. The third concert will occur on October 29 and will feature Andy Lin (erhu/viola)\, performing Chen Yi’s Fiddle Suite for String Quartet and other compositions. \nABOUT THE PROGRAM \nDaron Hagen‘s “Catavina” is the second movement of “Cantabile\,” a portrait of the historical figure\, Taira no Tokuko’s years as a recluse and Buddhist nun. “Cantabile” is one of a long song cycle\, “Heike Quinto” which was composed by Daron Hagen and commissioned by Duo YUMENO in 2015 – 2022. The recording of Heike Quinto will be released from Naxos in 2022-23. \nElizabeth Brown‘s “The Secret Life of Birds” (1992) was commissioned by the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs for Shirley Yamamoto\, flute\, and Yoko Awaya\, koto\, and is inspired by Brown’s love of the different ways birds use their voices: the ‘song’\, the ‘call’\, the ‘note.’ The koto part uses a traditional tuning\, though offset by a half step for the upper half of the strings. \nKen Ueno‘s “Tsuki no Uta” was composed for koto and voice and premiered in 2010. \nMichael Ippolito‘s “Strange Loops” (2018)\, for violin and cello\, takes its title from the concept developed by Douglas Hofstadter in his books Gödel\, Escher\, Bach and I Am a Strange Loop. Strange loops arise when one moves through a system in one direction\, yet somehow ends up back at the beginning. \nSeihō Kineya‘s “Tsuki no En” (1959) is a contemporary Hôgaku\, which is a composition written in the post-war era after the style and/or instrumentation of Japanese traditional music but influenced by western music\, composed for the Noh play Mii-dera Temple. \nThomas Osborne‘s Tumbling From the Ninth Height of Heaven (2007) takes its title from a poem by Li Bai (c. 700-762)\, a Chinese poet from the Tang dynasty. The poem\, “Viewing the Waterfall at Mount Lu\,” describes an enormous waterfall at Mount Lu in Jiangsi province. Osborne’s composition also draws inspiration from Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai woodcut depicting Li Bai at the edge of a cliff gazing upon the immense falls while his two young attendants try to keep the inebriated poet from tumbling over the edge. \nTICKET LINK:\nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/interwoven-ami-1-tickets-403776054047\n \nCOVID POLICY: \nProof of full vaccination is required to enter\, no exceptions. Masks must be worn throughout. Seating is limited and includes seating on the floor. Please do not come if you are symptomatic. Ask for a refund instead or donate your ticket. \nVENUE LOCATION:\nThe White Room at CRS\n123 4th Ave FL3\nNew York\, NY 10003\n212-677-862 \nDIRECTIONS:\nCRS is located on the 3rd floor of a walk-up building above Think Coffee\, between 12th & 13th streets\, one block east of The Strand Bookstore.

SUMMARY:Paradise Laboratory:  Pulses with Maya Angelou and Elsa Nilsson: Thyme
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) invites you to join in a unique deep listening experience with the jazz quartet Elsa Nilsson: Thyme and the poetry of Maya Angelou on July 31\, 2022 at 7pm in the award-winning White Room at CRS. \nMany species use sound to communicate. Elsa Nilsson\, Santiago Leibson\, Marty Kenney and Rodrigo Recabarren asked themselves; what is the line that makes sound music? If beauty is in the eye of the beholder\, then isn’t music in the ear of the listener? As they listened to words around them they became enchanted with the subtleties in the sounds of voices. It began with Rodrigo playing rhythms along with speeches where he wanted to accentuate the meanings of what was being said. He sent Elsa Maya Angelou’s “On the Pulse Of Morning” full of rocks\, rivers and trees. Elsa fell in love with the deep musicality present in every sound. She listened and heard echoes of Ornette Coleman in how Maya Angelou ended her phrases. She heard thematic development and musical build in the pitch materials. \nTogether this band took the time to hear the musical communication in the sounds of Maya Angelou’s words. They play with her voice\, enhancing the music that is already there and bringing to light the full depth of her sonic brilliance along with her poetic brilliance. \nJohn Cage heard music in every sound. Groove in a tin can. Humor and art co-existing. This band takes a similar approach to communication. Intentionality does not require a plan\, directionality does not imply rigidity. With the wide open space of the music ahead they stand together with their toes over the edge and jump. \nTickets are $10 for students/seniors and $20 general admission and are available through eventbrite.com and at the door for cash only\, if not sold out. All patrons must show proof of vaccination at the door in order to be admitted\, no exceptions. In addition\, masks must be worn throughout. \nPARADISE LABORATORY is a playground for sonic and visual experimentation. Conceived of during the pandemic by the renowned Korean traditional multi-instrumentalist\, curator\, and scholar gamin\, Paradise Laboratory provides musical artists with opportunities to rehearse\, record\, film\, and perform with other musical\, visual\, and dance artists in an experimental\, process-oriented\, and artist-centered fashion. \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nFlute Player\, Composer and Educator Elsa Nilsson was born and raised in Gothenburg\, Sweden and currently resides in Brooklyn\, New York. She can often be found playing at The 55 Bar\, Bar Bayeux and other New York Jazz venues. Nilsson approaches music with an attitude of inclusiveness. She believes there is a space to be found in music that gives us the freedom to be exactly who we are. This leads her to make some unconventional choices as an improviser and composer where the lines between styles become blurred and rules get bent in order to serve the ultimate goal of sincere communication. Nilsson draws inspiration from every aspect of life and music that moves her\, combining them through the lens of Jazz to create a deeply personal expression that she hopes is universally relatable. Nilsson is on Faculty at The New School College for Performing Arts. \nhttps://www.elsanilssonmusic.com/ \nSantiago Leibson is a Brooklyn based\, Argentinian born jazz pianist and composer. His music is situated in the frontier of jazz\, improvised music\, classical and contemporary music.  As a bandleader\, he has released five records: Amon (2014)\, Pendular (2015)\, Out of Orden (2016)\, Episodes (2018) and Little Pieces (2020).

SUMMARY:Meditation\, Spiritual Healing\, and Brain Activity Feedback
DESCRIPTION:Finally\, we are able to welcome you back in person for guided meditation and spiritual healing with CRS founder Yasuko Kasaki and CRS healers! And we have a special guest with us this time\, visiting artist-in-residence Hyo Jee Kang of South Korea\, who has been conducting research into the effects of creativity and meditation on brain activity. \nSpace is limited. To RSVP\, please email Etsuko at etsuko@crsny.org. She will let you know if there is still space. \nBring any issue you are facing right now — physically\, emotionally\, mentally\, and/or spiritually. With eyes closed (you will be seated and a healer will stand nearby; no touching is involved)\, a CRS healer\, trained in A Course in Miracles and spiritual reading/healing\, will observe you with her inner sight\, free of any judgments\, as your truly are\, a perfect shining spirit. Together\, we will ask the Holy Spirit (or Inner Guide if you prefer) to bring us directly to whatever seed thought is causing your current issues and ask for guidance about how your spirit really wants to make use of your present situation for its growth and sharing of love. After about 5 – 10 minutes of meditation\, we will share the inspirational guidance that we receive. \nHyo Jee — a Seoul-based concert pianist\, composer\, and conceptual artist whose concert LOOKING-MIND we will present the following day\, July 24 at 7pm at Greenwich House Music School — will be demonstrating a piece of technology called the NIRSIT Lite — a portable fNIRS device developed by Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology (KAIST) Professor Hyunmin Bae and produced by OBE Lab — that measures the activation level of hemoglobin in the prefrontal cortex of the brain. The measured brain activity is graphically presented in real time via video projection. You will have the opportunity to see a visual presentation of brain activity before and after meditation and healing! \nHyo Jee will also give a brief explanation of how the technology works and what they have learned so far. However\, for the most part\, we will share healing quietly and provide you with an opportunity to come to rest\, reflect\, and remember who you truly are\, in a supportive\, non-judgmental\, meditative environment. You can learn more about Hyo Jee Kang here. \n\nWe’d like to offer you an opportunity to experience stillness of mind and peace so that you can return to harmony with your true nature and purpose. Then you will find that rather than needing “solutions” to “problems” you will realize that you have no problems except those that you project. \nWe call this spiritual healing but it is not religious nor connected with any church or group. It is simply a practice of meditating together on our true nature and connecting with universal spirit/energy or what you will. \nA Note About the Role of Words in Healing: “Strictly speaking\, words play no part at all in healing. The motivating factor is prayer\, or asking. What you ask for you receive. But this refers to the prayer of the heart\, not to the words you use in praying. Sometimes the words and the prayer are contradictory; sometimes they agree. It does not matter. God does not understand words\, for they were made by separated minds to keep them in the illusion of separation. Words can be helpful\, particularly for the beginner\, in helping concentration and facilitating the exclusion\, or at least the control\, of extraneous thoughts. Let us not forget\, however\, that words are but symbols of symbols. They are thus twice removed from reality….” — A Course in Miracles Manual for Teachers\, Section 21 \n“Since only the mind can be sick\, only the mind can be healed. Only the mind is in need of healing.” —”PSYCHOTHERAPY: Purpose\, Process and Practice\,”Supplements to A Course in Miracles [/expand]

SUMMARY:Healing Concert with Neda Boin
DESCRIPTION:CRS welcomes back our dear friend award-winning Dutch-Persian singer songwriter Neda Boin of the Netherlands for an intimate evening of soulful music in the White Room. Neda’s music is heart touching\, powerful\, and deeply connective\, and will easily bring you in touch with the love you truly are. \nTickets for the concert are by donation on Eventbrite (and cash only at the door). Seating is extremely limited and RSVP is greatly encouraged. At this time\, proof of full vaccination is required to enter\, and masks will be required to be worn throughout. Latecomers are not guaranteed entry. \nNeda just released her new album\, “Remember You’re Dreaming.” The songs are all deeply inspired and give an intimate look inside her own journey from fear to love. \n“On the 21st of December\, a Persian holiday where the return of the light is celebrated\, singer-songwriter Neda Boin\, who got known for her four-chair-turn blind audition on The Voice\, released her new album\, ‘Remember You’re Dreaming.’ In a time where cases of depression are massively growing and where social media tends to hide our true face\, Neda honestly shares her own process of grief\, feeling lost and trying to find her way back home in this beautiful and heart-touching album. Neda recorded the album in Victoria BC\, where she worked together with multi-Grammy award winning producer Joby Baker. The warm and inspiring songs are there for anyone who could use some extra light during dark times.” — music journalist and producer Rick Jamm \nOrder new album: https://nedaboin.com/shop \n\n\n\n“Listening to Neda sing brings forth an experience of Divine Love within. She has a gift of expressing the sound of Heaven so we can all remember the Love that exists within each one of us. Neda’s music makes me feel pure joy. She has the voice of an angel.” — Corinne Zupko\, Ed.S.\, author of From Anxiety to Love \n“Neda’s music is a way to merge with the Spirit and feel the absolute glory of Divine Love. Her amazing voice enhances the lyrics from Heaven\, and my soul is lifted every time I listen.” — David Hoffmeister\, author of Unwind Your Mind Back to God \nHer first album\, “The Light Has Come\,” won Best Album of the Year at the Rotterdam Music Awards. Amazingly\, Neda\, then a student of A Course in Miracles (ACIM) for 8+ years\, channeled all the songs on the album in just two weeks\, all inspired from ACIM Workbook lessons\, making it the first album inspired by ACIM to win album of the year. Profoundly spiritual in nature\, the songs are deeply satisfying as songs\, with beautiful and irresistible music colored with soul\, jazz and world music inflections\, brought to soaring life by Neda’s angelic voice. \n\n\n\nFor more info about Neda\, visit:\nhttps://nedaboin.com/neda-boin/ \nListen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/0uaakWJVtW4N040gkuxagL\nFollow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neda_boin/\nFollow on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/NedaBoin?sub_confirmation=1\nTour schedule: https://nedaboin.com/events\nVoice Liberation program: https://www.members.nedaboin.com/promotion

SUMMARY:Crossing Boundaries Vol. 17: Through Her Eyes
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents Crossing Boundaries Concert Series Vol. 17:  THROUGH HER EYES on June 25\, 2022 at 7 pm in the award-winning White Room at CRS. The program features three female musicians — gamin (piri\, saenghwang)\, Jacqueline Kerrod (electric harp)\, and Mariel Roberts (cello) — and video by Sook Jin Jo from her art installations in Brazil and South Korea\, including her installation of 304 lights in remembrance of the Sewol Ferry disaster in which 304 people\, mostly high school students\, died en route to Jeju island\, South Korea on April 16\, 2014. This concert is dedicated to those beautiful spirits who became stars. \nCurated by multi-Instrumentalist gamin\, this fifth season of Crossing Boundaries consists of three concerts exploring the theme of WOMEN IN MUSIC performed by female and female-identifying musicians. Following the performance there will be a conversation with the audience about the concert and the theme of gender in the music industry. \nTickets are $20 – $30 and are available online through eventbrite.com and at the door for cash only\, if not sold out. Seating is limited and includes floor seating on blankets. All patrons must show proof of vaccination at the door in order to be admitted\, no exceptions. In addition\, masks must be worn throughout. \nPhoto credits: The photo of the beach is a still from the video of “Crossroads\,” a one-hour installation & performance copyright @ 2008 by Sook Jin Jo\, which took place in Itaparica\, Brazil in 2008\, sponsored by the Sacatar Foundation\, photo: Sang-Taek Oh. The photo of the stars is of “The Face of Heaven\,” a 304 LED light Installation copyright @ 2016 by Sook Jin Jo\, which was commissioned by  Gyeonggi Museum of Modern Art for April: the Eternal Voyage\, an exhibition memorializing the 304 victims of the Sewol ferry disaster in 2014\, photo: Tae Hoon Lee. \n“Gamin is one of the most celebrated piri\, taepyeongso and saengwhang performers in Korea today.” — Silkroad \n“Cellist Mariel Roberts has evolved to become one of the most adventurous figures on New York’s new music scene—one with a thorough grounding in classical tradition but a ravenous appetite for and tireless discipline in new work.” — Bandcamp Daily \n“Many people think of original music in a hierarchical sense\, looking down on pure improvisation as something that doesn’t require mastery or discipline. One listen to Jacqueline Kerrod’s solo harp debut will serve as an epiphany for those cynics. In fact\, I found myself awestruck by Kerrod’s seemingly limitless expressive range.”— Yoshi Maclear Wall The Whole Note \n“Jo’s work operates at the intersection of abstraction and human need\, creating intimate spaces and experiences of peace and solace that acknowledge emotional or spiritual connections.” — Sculpture \nCrossing Boundaries Vol. 18:  FREEDOM will be held on July 16 in Marc A. Scorca Hall at the National Opera Center. Crossing Boundaries Vol. 16:  FOCUSING ON HER\, co-presented by Tenri Cultural Institute of NY\, has been re-scheduled for Dec 10\, 2022 at Tenri. \nTHE PROGRAM \nFace of Heaven“The Face of Heaven” is a memorial Installation for the Sewol Ferry disaster in which 304 people\, mostly high school students\, died en route from Incheon to Jeju\, South Korea on April 16\, 2014. \nThe work is an experiental installation composed of 304 lights shining like stars through different size holes; offering a metaphor of longing\, remembrance and comfort for those who died in the Sewol ferry tragedy\, and shedding light on the dark reality of an unsolved issue.“When he shall die\,Take him and cut him out in little stars\,And he will make the face of heaven so fineThat all the world will be in love with nightAnd pay no worship to the garish sun.”– William Shakespeare \nCrossroadsInspired by: “It is a true philosophy to meditate on death.”While working at a Sacatar Foundation residency in Brazil in late 2007 and early 2008\, the artist spent a great deal of time observing nature: The sun rising in the morning and the coming of night everyday….The water coming in and out everyday. The ebb and flow of the tide which is different every day. \n“Leaving with nothing…leaving with just memory…the cycle of nature…the cycle of life and death.”This is a piece to reflect the artist’s observations\, experiences and thoughts. \nWooden grave markers\, reminiscent of primitive crossroad signs\, were placed in an elemental meeting of earth\, sea\, and sky. Installed at sunset on the shore at low tide\, I gathered them up before they washed away. \nABOUT CROSSING BOUNDARIES CONCERT SERIES \nCROSSING BOUNDARIES is a concert series devoted to dissolving boundaries between performers and audiences\, the traditional and contemporary\, classical and experimental\, and the culturally specific and the global. Series curators are given the opportunity to create unique performance events in collaboration with musical\, visual\, and/or movement artists of their choosing. \nInaugurated in 2018\, Crossing Boundaries is made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement\, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and administered by LMCC. LMCC empowers artists by providing them with networks\, resources\, and support\, to create vibrant\, sustainable communities in Manhattan and beyond.  \n   \nABOUT THE ARTISTS \nGAMIN is a Korean-born NYC-based multi-instrumentalist specializing in traditional Korean wind instruments.

Her ravenous appetite for collaboration and experimentation as an interpreter\, improvisor\, and composer have helped create a body of work which bridges avant-garde\, contemporary\, classical\, improvised\, and traditional music. Roberts is widely recognized for her “technical and interpretive mastery” (I care if you listen) and for performances which seethe with “excruciating intensity” (The Whole Note).  \nRoberts has appeared as a soloist and chamber musician across four continents\, most notably asa member and co-director of the Wet Ink Ensemble (named “The Best Classical Music Ensemble of 2018” by The New York Times)\, as well as with the International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE)\, Mivos Quartet\, Bang on a Can All Stars\, and Ensemble Signal.

Continuing her work with this medium\, she has discovered infinite possibilities for painting\, sculpture\, installation and beyond. She often chose marginalized sites for her outdoor installations and public artworks. Most of them are site-specific and collaborative\, working with professionals and local peoples from diverse communities in many countries\, including Sweden\, India\, Poland\, Switzerland\, Korea\, Bolivia\, Nicaragua\, Brazil and the United States. \nJo’s works can be seen in numerous public collections\, including the National Museum of Contemporary Art in Korea; the Seoul Museum of Art in Korea; Gyeonggi Museum of Modern Art\, Ansan\, Korea; the Erie Museum of Art in Pennsylvania; the Huntington Museum of Art in West Virginia; the Housatonic Museum of Art in Connecticut; the Arko Art Center in Seoul\, Korea; the LA Metro Detention Center in Los Angeles; and the Margulies Collection at the Warehouse in Miami.

SUMMARY:Crossing Boundaries Concert Series 14: Rumi's Wedding Night Online Film
DESCRIPTION:CRS (Center for Remembering & Sharing) presents CROSSING BOUNDARIES Concert Series Vol 14: RUMI’S WEDDING NIGHT\, a video program of Sufi music\, dance\, and poetry celebrating the life of the beloved poet and Sufi mystic Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi\, who died on December 17\, 1273 in Konya\, Turkey. \nCurated and directed by LÄLE SAYOKO\, this online film features music by ** TOMCHESS** (ney\, oud\, and morsing)\, vocals by MINA OMIDI\, video by CHRISTOPHER PELHAM\, and dance by members of the CRS Sufi Dance community: LÄLE SAYOKO\, PAOLA GARCÎA\, and MEERA KHANAL. Additional voice-over is provided by MILAI SAKAI. \nRumi directed his followers to celebrate rather than mourn his passing because he would be uniting with God\, the “Beloved.” The observance of the anniversary of his death was thereafter referred to in Arabic as urs\, which means “wedding.” \nThe whirling dance meditation of the Sufis is known as Sema or Sama and actually means “divine listening.” It is the mystical approach of practicing “listening” in order to achieve remembrance (zikr) of the divine spark in our heart of hearts. We empty our minds of all thoughts of the individual self as we give ourselves over to prayer and connect with a greater power\, the still center within\, around which we turn. Into this emptiness floods a divine fullness\, which sometimes gives rise to a state known as “mystical intoxication\,” a reflection of knowing and experiencing that you and I and the Divine are One. \nOur practice is fundamentally experiential rather than presentational in nature. Even though we are sharing it with you through this electronic medium\, it is our hope that you can receive our prayer and join with us in setting aside the dualistic world of the ego to experience this Oneness. \nABOUT THE CURATOR/DIRECTOR \nLÄLE SAYOKO lives to embody and transmit the voice of spirit through music and dance. As CRS Resident Sufi Dance instructor\, choreographer\, performing artist\, and musical curator\, she loves to welcome people into this holy practice to explore and share their own divinity. She intermittently tours internationally with BELLA GAIA\, a live concert blending music\, dance\, technology\, and NASA satellite imagery inspired by the experience of astronauts viewing the earth from space. “Sublime” — Village Voice. \nOne of the founding members of Japan’s famous SAMANYOLU professional belly dance group in Tokyo\, Läle went on to a long solo career performing throughout the northeastern USA and touring with United Kingdom’s Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers on over a 100 city tour encompassing the U.K.\, as well as Turkey’s Baba Zula. About six years ago\, she was forced to retire to support her young daughter through a life-threatening medical crisis. Several years later she discovered that she could whirl as a form of prayer to support her daughter and began studying Sufi Dance with Paris-based Sufi Artist Rana Gorgani. In April 2018 Gorgani awarded her the International Sufi Dance Certification Of Cid UNESCO\, granting her authority to teach Gorgani’s method of Sufi Dance training. Prior to the pandemic she taught ongoing Sufi Dance classes and led monthly Healing Circles at CRS. For information on private or small group lessons\, please contact us for details. \nhttps://crsny.org/index.php/sufi-dance-music-art-at-crs/ \nABOUT THE MUSICIANS \nTOMCHESS (oud\, ney\, morsing) is a New York City–based multi-instrumentalist\, improviser\, and composer.

Mahsa Vahdat is the artist who played the most significant role in her path and helped her open up her heart and voice at deeper levels. Mina has always been obsessed with spirituality. Singing poems of classical Persian poets like Rumi and Hafez is a healing remedy to her. “It is my meditation and healing remedy to get through pain of loss and wounds that Ego shapes!” she says. \nhttps://minaomidi.com \nABOUT THE OTHER PERFORMERS \n** PAOLA GARCÍA** periodically teaches Sufi dance at CRS and performs with the CRS Sufi dance community.

SUMMARY:A Course in Miracles Monday Classes
DESCRIPTION:Mondays 7:30 – 9 pm\nTaught by Yasuko Kasaki\, assisted by Christopher Pelham \nKnow your life purpose and the meaning of your current situation clearly. Communicate with your Inner Teacher. Heal yourself and others. \nThese ongoing classes focus on mind training designed to help you to experience the lessons and loving wisdom of ACIM. Each class contains some lecture from the ACIM Textbook\, some discussion and Q&A\, and typically 10 – 20 minutes of meditation\, creative visualization and/or spiritual reading practice in order to experience mind change. \nOur primary goal in these classes is for each student to learn to listen to the guidance of Holy Spirit and live his/her life with certainty and peace. Slowly\, you will re-train your eyes to see the world around you without judgment. You will learn to communicate with your holy spirit. \nIt is OK to attend without having studied the Course\, but we highly encourage you begin reading the Text and\, especially\, to begin the workbook lessons if you can! This course is meant to be experienced rather than simply talked about. You can find the text and lessons online. \nStudents of all experience levels and backgrounds are welcome!
