Schubert: Winterreise @ Zunfthaus zur Waag
Schubert: Winterreise @ Zunfthaus zur Waag
**Description:** A Sunday morning dedicated to the pinnacle of the German Lied: poetry with music, the 19th century's equivalent of rap music. We are gathering for Schubert’s "Winterreise," where a heartbroken young man steals away from town at night and wanders through wintery lands on a melancholic journey with romantic music. This performance features Kazuo Takeshita (Tenor) and Akane Matsumura (Piano). 10:30: Meet in the Zunfthaus zur Waag at Münsterhof, first come first seated, please be early. 11:00: Performance starts. 12:30: Optional post-show lunch or drinks nearby for those interested in discussing the music. **How to get there:** Zunfthaus zur Waag, Münsterhof 8, 8001 Zürich. Tram: Lines 4, 11, or 15 to "Helmhaus" or "Paradeplatz," followed by a short walk to Münsterhof. **Registration/Ticket:** Free/donation based.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on March 7 - First Congregational Church
Contra dance with Big Scioty on March 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
