<p>Although the initial draw for me to attend this year’s festival in Edinburgh, Scotland was the focus on Asia, another production - a retelling and staging of <em>1001 Arabian Nights </em>by director Tim Supple <em>- </em>was a thrilling addition to my sojourn.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I’ll admit the advertisements for this production did not initially appeal to me. Another re-telling of the Arabian Nights; no photo of the actors or staging; just a vague street scene on the websites and posters - leading me to believe it would simply be another…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6112325/masterful-story-telling-at-the-edinburgh-international-festival-ii">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>All it took was an e-mail to launch a week-long trip to Edinburgh, Scotland for this year’s international festival (August 12-September 4). Somehow I was the lucky recipient of an announcement for the world premiere of <em>The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle</em> to take place at the festival, and after further investigation of the festival’s copious offerings from Asia, the internet travel searching began. (I’ll admit, escaping one of the longest heat-waves in Texas for the 65-degree temperatures in Edinburgh was another…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6112324/masterful-story-telling-at-the-edinburgh-international-festival">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>The next event I chose to attend in New York over the first weekend in August was "Heritage Sunday" on the 7th, which was presented by the Center for Traditional Music and Dance as part of the Lincoln Center Out of Doors Festival. Held in Hearst Plaza, this year's concert featured three groups representing Afro-Colombian musical traditions. The title of the concert, "The Other Side of Colombia" seemed to refer equally to the marginalized status of the Afro-Colombian population within the broader culture…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6112323/colombia-in-nyc-rebolu-diego-obregon-y-grupo-chonta-and-sexteto-tabala">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>On a recent trip to New York I managed to take in three films, four art exhibits and two live music performances. Although I intended only to write about the concerts for my blog, I’ll offer some thoughts on my other visits as they relate to music and/or cross-cultural exchange through art.</p>
<p>I started my trip with a stroll down to the Film Forum (Houston and 6<sup>th</sup> Ave.) where I saw <em>Passione, </em>directed by John Turturro.

<p>Western Music in Turkey from the Nineteenth Century to the Present  by Kathryn Woodard</p>
<p>From works such as Mozart’s <em>Abduction from the Seraglio</em> and Beethoven’s <em>The Ruins of Athens</em> many music listeners are familiar with the practice of evoking the sound of Turkish music, specifically music of the Janissary corps, within European works of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. What is less known in the West is that shortly after the alla turca style had reached its peak in Europe, Western music also…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/6112321/western-music-in-turkey-from-the-nineteenth-century-to-the-present">Read more</a></span></div>
