Requiem: What remains is love by Maria Riccio Bryce

Bob Cudmore and Maria Riccio Bryce "Requiem" The Conversation

My Requiem is a 75-minute choral work that celebrates the mystery, honors the faith, mourns the losses, and sings the glory of invincible love. It premiered last November at St. Luke’s Catholic Church in Schenectady, and it was a triumph! Hence, I am taking it on a MEMORIAL TOUR.
The Requiem will have three separate performances at three different churches in the Capital District, over three days of the Memorial Day weekend.
The Requiem is sung by a chorus of 24 glorious voices, and features Ann Marie Adamick, mezzo; Jean Johnson, alto; Richard J. Miller, Jr., tenor; and John Allen, baritone.
I will be accompanying and conducting from the piano. Playing beside me, my sublime ‘pit band’: the Musicians of Ma’alwyck.
 

Episode 476-Journalist Paul Kix documents how the 1963 desegregation campaign in Birmingham Alabama changed race relations in America.  Martin Luther King, Jr., was imprisoned and wrote his Letter from a Birmingham Jail.  Kix’s book is titled You Have to Be Prepared to Die before You Can Begin to Live.

Entertainer-turned-activist Harry Belafonte risked his life to post bail to get Dr. King out of jail.  Kix says everything that happened after Birmingham—from the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to Southern states allowing interracial marriage--stemmed from this one moment in time sixty years ago.

Saturday, May 27, 2023- Episode 126, August 26, 2016-Christopher Kelly talks about the Romans, Garibaldi, Mussolini and more in discussing his latest book with Stuart Laycock, “Italy Invades: How the Italians Conquered the World.”

Italy Invades, full of restless adventurers, canny generals, and the occasional scoundrel, is a fast-paced and compelling read, the perfect sequel to America Invades.

Recreating their success with America Invades, Christopher Kelly and Stuart Laycock take another global tour, this time starting from Italy and exploring that country's military involvements throughout the ancient and modern worlds.

North Chuctanunda Creek Friends to Meet, Saturday June 3, 2023 9:30 am

Friends of North Chuctanunda Creek Incorporated will celebrate National Trails Day at their first public meeting at the Clock Tower Building, 37 Prospect Street in Amsterdam.

    Maps will show completed trails and future construction.  There will be refreshments. An elevator to the top floor of the Clock Building will enable attendees to enjoy the view from the historic structure that once was part of Bigelow Sanford Carpet and later toymaker Coleco. Outdoors on June 3, John Naple will lead an optional mile-long walk along the North Chuctanunda Creek.  The walk will go through the former Sanford Mill Complex from Locust Avenue to Church Street, stop at the creek overlook in back of Kelloggs and Miller’s former linseed oil plant, and go down Church Street to opposite City Hall. The North Chuctanunda Creek provided water power to many of Amsterdam’s 19th century mills.
