Cultural Corner

A Power Never Lost

By Angela Shaw

When this article posts, Hurricane Irma may be a distant memory. But I have a hunch that for most Floridians, the ordeal will not be soon forgotten–especially the prolonged loss of power for 65% of us.

pxlpipe.com

While I was among the fortunate 35% who never lost electricity, I’m quick to remember Hurricanes Jeanne, Francis and Wilma which brought lengthy outages (over 10 days). Our house became a sauna, and ‘camping’ routines immediately commenced.  We cooked on the grill, hung laundry outside, and took cold tubs to beat the heat.

There’s no question that electricity is a necessity in this hothouse of a state. Not only do our bodies melt, but the interiors of our dwellings are damaged by constant moisture–and this is a fact for eight months out of the year.

Irma reminded us how important power is. How distressing the loss of it can be.

As a musician and art lover, I’ve noticed another power that is equally essential to our well being–and if lost, would deprive us of a wide spectrum of comfort and relief. The week after the hurricane, I was working at home teaching piano, when I noticed otherwise cranky family members emerge from their rooms with faces absolutely transformed. There was a brightness–a look of peace. I observed then and there how the mere sound of melody can soothe jagged nerves and calm agitated tempers. Hence, the power of music. 

videohive.net

This is no surprise to most, but bears repeating. An entire field of study is dedicated to this phenomenon. Medical institutions harness Music Therapy regularly in their emotional and psychological recovery regimens.

Musicandmemory.org says: “…music…brings out the good in everybody. Favorite songs have the power to uplift the spirit, tap into lost memories and foster meaningful relationships.

President and CEO of Cobble Hill Health Center in Brooklyn, New York, Tony Lewis points out that music is much more effective than expensive mood altering medications.   In addition, there’s no need for pages of side effect disclaimers.

We’ve experienced firsthand what life is like without electricity. But what would it be like without music? It would be a beige, treeless desert, a one dimensional existence. There would be no earbuds pumping favorite vibes, nothing to work or dance to. No songs, bands or orchestras. Self-expression would lose its aural creative vehicle. That would be a true disaster and real sustained loss. 

Hollywood Bowl – Jams Plus

Besides losing a major mood enhancer, without music our minds would suffer too.

Studies show that musicians have more symmetrical brains than non-musicians. The areas that are responsible for motor control, auditory processing and spatial coordination function better. Musicians also have a more developed corpus callosum, which is the band of nerve fibers that enables the two hemispheres to interact with each other.


With all those smarts waiting to be had, we should each go out and take up an instrument. And why not? Now that we have power, a hot shower and cool air, why not get down to the business of living and improving our quality of life; of taking advantage of the opportunity to make music? 

The benefits are as close as a strum on a guitar, a stroke on piano keys or a puff into a recorder. The healing power of music is—literally—at our fingertips.

We Didn’t Start the Fire?

We Didn’t Start the Fire?

Living Green

We Didn’t Start the Fire?

By Bryan Hayes

When a fire is burning does it really matter, at that moment, who started it? Is it not much more critical to put the fire out and ask those questions after?  Why then, with climate change, do we do the opposite?

The debate over whether climate change is nature taking its course or if there is a manmade element is debatable, and no matter the facts, opinions are rarely changed.   Without a doubt, the devastation leveled by natural disasters is about as real as can be.  

In Florida, we are no strangers to hurricanes.  It is but one of the many natural disasters that are currently occurring worldwide.  Going through one is one thing but the aftermath is something else altogether.  

Not having electricity can make compound everything like the heat and darkness.  After Irma though, power was able to be restored rather quickly to most areas, relative to the geographic size affected.  It may not have seemed like it at the moment, but time has a way of feeling like it lasts forever. 

Shortages of food and gas are other points of conversation.  Because Florida is a peninsula, the logistics of transporting goods and services the length of the state is arduous.   Fortunately, no roads were severely damaged or destroyed. This would have limited the effort to restock the shelves and gas stations.

Most businesses cannot function without power, electricity, internet and phone service.  We are in the digital age, and when that becomes the dark age (pardon the pun) businesses are left scrambling.  Internet and phones are a staple of daily life. Without a computer we are pretty much powerless.

When commercial property damage is included, the economic disaster alone can last years and alter lives.  Even short periods of outage can cripple some businesses that are barely making it in the best of times.

Fortunately, with Irma, there was limited storm surge damage and areas of flooding. That too, could have further affected both business and people.  Homes that are uninhabitable, or needing even minimal repair put a strain on families, their livelihood, and their financial situation.

Natural disasters are a drain on resources, and their clean up takes weeks, months sometimes even years.  Sometimes, areas never recover.  Long after the camera crews are gone, the struggle is only beginning.

So, while the debate rages on about what is nature taking its course and what is manmade, the costs of natural disasters drain the economy, resources, displace people, families, and businesses, not to mention the military.  Together, when you add states and countries battling fires, others dealing with earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and the like, there is reason to pause the debate.

As temperatures rise, polar ice caps melt.  So, too do glaciers.   Just as when you put ice into a full glass of water, it melts and the water overflows.  This is why we see rising sea levels and an immediate threat to coastal areas such as here in Florida.   Increasing temperatures also affect crops.  Droughts become more prevalent.  And, the list goes on and on…

While a vast majority of scientists believe man is a contributor to climate change, what can we control?   Mexico, for example, has an early warning system for earthquakes.  The United States does not.  Maybe this is not a priority?    

Maybe the question is not who started the proverbial fire, but how can we best put it out and keep other fires from starting all together?

MALTZ JUPITER THEATRE SEEKS TEENS AND YOUNG ADULTS FOR EXCLUSIVE MUSICAL THEATRE PLAYWRITING CLASS

MALTZ JUPITER THEATRE
SEEKS TEENS AND YOUNG ADULTS
FOR EXCLUSIVE MUSICAL THEATRE PLAYWRITING CLASS

Elite student teams will craft 10-minute musicals that will be showcased as part of the Theatre’s premiere ARC New Works Theatre Festival in April 2018

October 3, 2017 (Jupiter) – The Maltz Jupiter Theatre is offering local teens and young adults the chance to learn the art of creating a musical and have their work produced on a professional stage during a premiere theatre festival.

A new elite internship initiative open to students from middle school through college, the Theatre’s Musical Theatre Playwriting Class will be taught by the dynamic duo behind the Theatre’s hit productions of the world premiere musicals Academy and Through the Looking Glass, among others: the Theatre’s producing artistic director and chief executive Andrew Kato and composer and playwright John Mercurio.

Participating students will be chosen through an extensive interview process and receive full scholarships, covering all materials and fees. Divided into teams of three (with each group containing a composer, book writer and lyricist), each team will craft a 10-minute musical that will be showcased as part of the Theatre’s six-day ARC New Works Theatre Festival in April 2018.

“The Maltz Jupiter Theatre is ecstatic to offer local students the hands-on opportunity to create, study and showcase their work on our professional regional stage this spring,” Kato said. “We feel honored to pass our knowledge on to the next generation and help foster new material that speaks to our community.”

A new annual event focused on the world of new work development, the festival will take audiences through the processes of creating new work. A direct result of the fully-funded endowment created by the Maltz Family Foundation and other benefactors, the festival will give the Theatre the opportunity to workshop new theatrical pieces.

“Regional theaters have the responsibility to contribute to the national landscape of new works,” Kato said. “As an integral part of the Theatre’s mission to educate, entertain and inspire, the ARC New Works Theatre Festival will encompass a wide variety of works in different stages of development. Some works will have just been staged, some will be completely finished and some will be workshopped with a different spin on what was already written.”

The title for the festival is inspired by the literary concept of a play or musical’s dramatic arc, which consists of the exposition, rising action, climax, falling action and denouement. The title also implies a forward moving action – not only in the plot development of a dramatic piece, but the furthering of progress in new works themselves. In addition to the students’ musicals, the festival will include work from such notable playwrights as Christopher Demos-Brown and Ryan Scott Oliver.

Applicants for the festival’s Musical Theatre Playwriting Class may be teenagers or young adults. Class size is limited to 15 students, which will then be divided into five teams. Each team’s composer must be able to play piano or guitar, and the Theatre is specifically looking for one team’s project to be exclusively written and performed in Spanish (translator provided).

Taking place on Saturday mornings from January 13 until March 17, the class will cover basic elements of the three primary aspects of musical theatre writing: book, music and lyrics. Discussions will include story and song structure and crafting character-specific music and lyrics with examples from classic repertoire.

Students can expect to learn a classic approach to musical theatre playwriting that will included script formatting and more, with an expectation of writing and composing outside of class time and contributing to discussions during class time.

To apply, students are asked to submit a cover letter (including name, address, phone number and email address), resume and a detailed letter explaining their particular skill set and reason for wanting to participate to Director of Education Julie Rowe, c/o Maltz Jupiter Theatre, 1001 East Indiantown Road, Jupiter, FL. 33477. Applications must be received by 6 p.m. on November 1, 2017.

Personal interviews on November 9 and 10 will follow the initial submission process for top candidates. The interviews will include the following performance requirements: composers will perform two songs they have written (either on piano or guitar); lyricists will perform two song lyrics, poems or monologues they have written; and book writers will perform a monologue or scene they have written.

About the Maltz Jupiter Theatre
