Overall, the symphony is conceived as a set of tone poems or musical pictures. Summer, flowers in the meadow, animals in the forest, night, morning bells, and love provide the inspiration for each of the separate movements, although\u2013in the Mahler manner \u2013each movement reflects elements from all of the tonal pictures.\r\n\r\nA consummate conductor and interpreter himself, Mahler created a very detailed score, dictating almost obsessively every possible nuance in every measure and every phrase. But he omitted one factor of vital importance: there are no metronome markings for the tempos! Therefore, he grants to the conductor and players a limited artistic license to evoke our own musicianship and character. \r\n\r\nAs a young boy, Mahler composed a polka to which he added a funeral march as an introduction. These contradictory traits evolved as the mature Mahler was able to juggle all at once music that is sometimes comic, sometimes painful, sometimes heroic\u2013at times hushed and mournful, at times robust and jubilant\u2013or perhaps pastoral, childlike and angelic. Mahler\u2019s unique achievement was to fuse these elements into magnificent symphonic statements. In the process, he created one of the most distinctive, instantly recognizable sounds in the orchestral repertory.\r\n\r\nUndoubtedly, Mahler remains one of the most fascinating composers in classical history and his biography and style remain topics for compelling discussion today. In recognition of the 100th anniversary of Mahler\u2019s death, the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra concludes its 2010-11 season with the epic Third Symphony. Melody Racine, U-M professor and chair of voice will join the UMS Choral Union Women\u2019s Chorus and the Ann Arbor Youth Chorale in this rare presentation of expanded orchestration. \r\n\r\nArie Lipsky is the conductor\/music director of the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra.\r\n", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5507-1131860@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5507", "building_id":"1005179", "building_name":"202 S.

A 15 minute lecture is followed by time for questions. Sponsored by the Shapiro Science Library.\r\nThe problem of invasive species homogenizing our ecosystems with unwanted organisms that damage, degrade, and exterminate native species is widespread across the terrestrial and aquatic habitats of the Great Lakes region. Two of the most pernicious of these species are the zebra and quagga mussels, which were introduced to the lakes through ballast water exchange by foreign freighters. Unlike Asian carp, which are our current barbarians at the gate, mussels are here and have devastated food webs where they have proliferated. Their filtering activities, which remove algae from the water column, in conjunction with declining nutrient levels in Lake Huron especially, have led to a trophic cascade, which has depressed algae, zooplankton, forage fish, and severely impacted the salmon fishery of Lake Huron. Several unintended consequences of these changes include the almost elimination of alewife (main forage of salmon) from Lake Huron, and since the alewife eat larval forms of fish with planktonic stages, we have seen: 1. Lowered salmon populations, and 2. Increases in native species with planktonic larvae, including emerald shiner, walleyes in Saginaw Bay, and to some degree lake trout and lake herring. Lake Huron and probably other Great Lakes (e.g., Michigan) are shifting toward more historical, pristine conditions, and their water quality, algal, zooplankton, and forage fish populations are beginning to closely resemble those found in Lake Superior.\r\n\r\n", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5093-1132160@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5093", "building_id":"1005177", "building_name":"North Quad", "campus_maps_id":"553", "room":"2435", "location_name":"North Quad", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["lecture"], "website":"http:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/shapiro-science-library", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Water Theme Semester", "group_id":"2411", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/watersemester\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1132160 } , "5550-1131896": { "datetime_modified":"20110308T000020", "datetime_start":"20110308T190000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2011-03-08", "date_end":"", "time_start":"19:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Second Dissertation Recital: Maria Bessmeltseva, violin", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Second Dissertation Recital: Maria Bessmeltseva, violin", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"PROGRAM: Brahms - Sonata No. 1 in G Major, Op. 78 for Violin and piano; Sonatensatz for violin and piano; Strauss - Violin Sonata in E-flat Major, Op. 18", "occurrence_notes":"", "guid":"5550-1131896@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/5550", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"University Commons, 817 Asa Gray Drive, Ann Arbor", "location_name":"", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"Free - no tickets required", "tags":["music"], "website":"http:\/\/www.music.umich.edu\/", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"School of Music, Theatre & Dance (SMTD)", "group_id":"155", "website":"http:\/\/smtd.umich.edu\/events" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1131896 } , "4363-1078861": { "datetime_modified":"20101208T230224", "datetime_start":"20110308T200000", "datetime_end":"", "has_end_time":0, "date_start":"2011-03-08", "date_end":"", "time_start":"20:00:00", "time_end":"", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Dan Bern", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Dan Bern", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"4363-1078861@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/4363", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":null, "has_livestream":0, "cost":"General Admission $15, Reserved $22.", "tags":["music"], "website":"http:\/\/www.mutotix.com", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)", "group_id":"1053", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1078861 } }
