SUMMARY:How the Piano Keyboard Changed the World - Chino Valley
DESCRIPTION:  \nInvented in Ancient Greece\, keyboards allow an individual to play all the voices or music\, replacing an orchestra or a choir. Keyboards are such a powerfully disruptive technology that they changed the very language of music\, and allowed for some of the most beautiful music in human history to be created. Found all over the world\, the keyboard is one of the most democratizing forces in music\, allowing music to be experienced and created by all societal groups. There is a dark side\, however! The pervasiveness of keyboards has taken Western music across the globe\, often crushing indigenous music. This presentation will include musical examples from many time periods and across the planet. \nWelsh harpsichordist\, Dr. Guy Whatley\, has held many music and education positions and serves as a visiting expert. He performs thirteenth to present day music internationally. Guy has special interest in medieval keyboard music\, the keyboard music of William Byrd\, the music of J. S. Bach\, late romantic German organ music\, and contemporary organ and harpsichord music. He has commissioned and premiered many new works\, working with distinguished composers. He is a member of the teaching faculty at Arizona State University\, and serves various arts and early music organizations across the southwest. Guy Whatley is also the harpsichordist for the Grammy nominated True Concord.

SUMMARY:Early Western Songs and Singers - Chino Valley
DESCRIPTION:  \nWhether or not you grew up when Western films competed favorably with the popular films of the day\, you will definitely want to take yourself back in time to hear the music that made cowboy legends out of the Sons of the Pioneers\, Roy Rogers\, Gene Autry\, Jimmy Wakely and so many other Western singers. Music Historian Erik Larson will ‘stir the campfire’ and feature a generous number of original Western recordings that were so much a part of the 1930s and 1940s. \nErik Larson earned a B. A. degree from San Diego State University in 1962 and served with Boys Clubs Of America (now Boys & Girls Clubs) for 30 years  as the director of five different Clubs throughout the Midwest and California.

Eventually he was asked to join the National Staff as a management consultant to individual Club staffs and boards of directors. For nearly two decades\, he has been a volunteer docent at Riordan Mansion State Historic Park in Flagstaff.

SUMMARY:Armed with Our Language\, We Went to War:  The Navajo Code Talkers - Chino Valley
DESCRIPTION:During WWII a select group of young Navajo men enlisted in the Marines with a unique weapon. Using the Navajo language\, they devised a secret code that the enemy never deciphered.  For over 40 years a cloak of secrecy hung over the Code Talker’s service until the code was declassified and they were finally honored for their military contributions in the South Pacific by Presidents Reagan\, Bush\, and the Navajo Nation. The Code Talkers’ cultural background\, how the code was devised and used\, photos\, and how Navajo spiritual beliefs were used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) form this presentation. \nLaura Tohe is Diné/Navajo.  She is Sleepy Rock clan born for the Bitter Water clan. A librettist and an award-winning poet\, she has written 3 books of poetry\, edited a book of Native American Women writing\, and the oral history book\, Code Talker Stories.
