Joseph Weyers, Professor, Hispanic Studies and Co-director, Global Scholars: A Postcards Approach to Teaching Culture
Wednesday, March 30, 2022
4:00–5:00 pm Via Zoom https://cofc.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAod-mvrDkiHdWrgpdd9TyyJYbNolszhDng
Postcards beg to be explained and explored. There is a story behind each vista, each museum, each piece of art, and once unraveled, the story informs us about the history, gastronomy, music, and multiple other cultural manifestations of the people and places we highlight in class. There are two objectives for this talk: 1. to outline how Postcards from Mexico was developed using postcards as the centerpiece of each class, and 2. how these valuable authentic materials can be incorporated to address culture in a course, a unit, or a class.
Free and open to the public - Lecture will be in English

The College of Charleston Orchestra on Nov. 29, 2021, will present the performance “Two Geniuses: Tchaikovsky and Orellana,” conducted by Yuriy Bekker. Hosted by the College’s Department of Music, the performance will include the U.S. premiere of 91-year-old Joaquín Orellana’s “Ballet Contrastes.” The concert will also feature beloved, late-Romantic Tchaikovsky masterpieces “Symphony no. 5” and “Variations on a Rococo Theme,” featuring cellist Maria Savelyeva. The concert will take place at 7:30 p.m. at the Sottile Theatre (44 George St.).
Orellana’s work came to the attention of Bekker through a research project conducted by music and computer science double major Laura Maria Diaz Coronado, under the guidance of Michael O’Brien, associate professor of ethnomusicology and chair of the music department. Funded through the College’s Summer Undergraduate Research with Faculty (SURF) grant program, Diaz researched, digitized and documented the composer’s work in an effort to bring attention to his musical compositions.
