Transcript

The Lectures, Concerts, and Exhibitions Series (LCE) recently hosted two concerts in Coulter Recital Hall, two very different almost oppositeconcerts, with contrasting audiences. The first was The Ivory Consort: Music from the Land of Three Faiths on Monday, Sept. 20, the second, guitarist Don Ross, on Sept. 27. The Ivory Consort presented a masterful performance, playing music from Medieval Spain at a time when the music of the Jewish, Muslim, and Christian faiths converged to form a new, unique blend of organized sounds and silences. The historically informed performance revealed how the blending of cultures can produce something beautiful, involving a combination of styles, a multitude of instruments, and an interpretive angle of history. The Consorts instruments were all crafted and played from a rough idea of the originals. Using illuminated manuscripts from the time; many of the instruments were made directly from pictures. These instruments ranged from a three hundred WCU student Filmmaker movie debut November 1st by Sara Halterman Western North Carolina has long been a haven for movie-making. Directors, producers, and film crews from around the nation flock to these mountains to film Hollywood hits. But not all filmmakers come to this region as strangers; some are made here. Tom Mone, a Western Carolina University student and an Asheville resident, completed his first film this past summer entitled, Trust. The film is a psychological thriller about a group of friends faced with sadistic murders erupting in their community. Friends become enemies in this plot-twisting thriller about a different kind of friendship. The film was written and directed by Mone, who also provides musical accompaniment for the film. Mone has been working with video for nearly two years. His first interaction with a video camera began - with the family camcorder. After experimenting with camera angles and shots, he became fascinated with camera operating in both film and television. He carried his fascination into his college career by joining TV62, Western's campus television station, where he enhanced and developed his camera skills. For the past year, Mone has worked as camera operator and editor of TV62s sketch comedy show CatScan, furthering his ambitions to work in the television and film industries. Mone is seeking a B.S. in Communications and Electronic Media, with a minor in Film Studies. Inthe summer of 2003, Mone began writing Trust. He knew he wanted to write a psychological thriller Photo by Joseoph Young year old antique to a drum made from aluminum and plastic to two performers voices. Instruments were played, using variations to change with the mood and sound of the song, while the vocals were fluid, melodic additions. While most of the lyrics sounded nonsensical (I think | heard the word balloon several times during the performance), they functioned to tell stories. These tales included topics of marriage, love, adultery, power, and the roles of women, among others. Yet, the most interesting aspect of the concert was that the stories were interpreted in many different ways by the performers. For instance, in astory ofa woman being unfaithful to her husband, a king, the male vocalist began narrating the story in a manner suggesting that the woman reluctantly tells the king of her children with another man, when the woman vocalist interrupted with a different interpretation, intimating that the wife informs the king of her from the start. The films plot was inspired by a movie called The Curve, which Mone saw several years ago. The characters in his film are loosely based on characters in The Curve, and all the actors in the film are WCU students. Most of the film was shot in Sylva and on the WCU campus. Other locations include the Blue Ridge Parkway and Greensboro, North Carolina. The movie was made under a joint partnership between Mone and TV62, which provided most of the equipment used in the making of the film. Mone notes that although making the movie was a lot of fun, it came with a lot of challenges: Scheduling was the most difficult task, between work, school and accommodating the actors schedules. It was hard to find a time for everyone to meet. Most movies take twenty-to-thirty days to shoot, this movie took us three months because of all the scheduling conflicts. Mone says that the most exciting part of making the movie was when you're sitting there making the movie and you say to yourself, Hey we're making a move. We're not just sitting around talking about it, were actually doing it. He hopes he can be an inspiration to others that goals are attainable and that anythings possible. His approach? Stop (complaining) about it, and do it. Mone says there are plans for more movies in the future and he hopes to have a new film out by Fall 2005. His current film, Trust, can be seen Nov. 1-2 WCnewsmagazine other children defiantly before she is beheaded. The differences of interpretation came across, as each vocalist performed the roles using noticeable gesticulations during the song. The second concert, in stark contrast to the first, was guitanst Don Ross, a Canadian musician who grew up in Montreal listening to R&B and Motown. With Barenaked Ladies-like vocal stylings, he strummed, slapped, and patted rhythmic guitar, reminding me of Ani DiFranco. Ross describes his unique playing as heavy wood music (as opposed to heavy metal music). The stage set-up consisted of a small mixer on a piano stool, two acoustic guitars plugged into amplifiers, and a microphone. In his performance, Ross seemed to be discouraging multiculturalism by mocking flamenco dancers, South American appetizers, and the Spanish language. He named the style of one of his flamenco-influenced songs after a large, pink bird and gave it the title of a famous cathedral in Spain. However, all of his songs were named obscurely, except the first song he played, also the title track of | his album, Robot Monster, which he named aftera | cheesy sci-fi movie. | Thus far, the LCE Series has given the campus two diverse concerts, providing educational entertainment, along with contrasting perspectives, | for a range of audience members. : in the A.K. Hinds University Center Theatre at 9 p.m. and is open to the public. Admission is free for WCU students, faculty, and staff, with a valid Cat Card. Public admission is $1. The film will also be available at Segrof Video Store in Asheville at a later date. Photo by Sara Halterman
