SUMMARY:Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Prof Emeritus Michael Roeder Fee: Members $75 Non-members $95 \nLeopold Mozart (1719-87) took his prodigy children\, Wolfgang Amadeus (1756-91) and Maria Anna (“Nannerl” 1751-1829)\, on tour to display and exploit their gifts and to expose the boy to music and musicians in important musical centres of Europe. We will join W. A. Mozart on some of his journeys to discover various influences on his developing compositional style. By the time of his move from his birthplace in Salzburg to Vienna in 1781\, Mozart had assimilated and merged these diverse musical influences into a remarkable personal style. \nMozart was the master of every medium and musical genre current in his time. His music\, along with that of Haydn (1732-1809) and Beethoven (1770-1827)\, represents the height of the Viennese Classical style. \nMozart’s music runs the gamut from light entertainment music (divertimenti and serenades) to the most profound and deeply moving chamber music\, symphonies\, concertos\, choral music\, and\, above all\, operas\, which were his passion. We will explore examples from each category in varying degrees of depth. Some works\, like Symphony No. 40 in G Minor\, K. 550\, Piano Concerto in B-Flat\, K. 456\, String Quintet in G minor\, K. 516; Sinfonia Concertante for Violin and Viola in E-flat Major\, K. 364\, and the opera Don Giovanni\, will be studied in greater detail. Excellent audio and video recordings will enhance our experience. \nPlease join in this remarkable musical journey!

SUMMARY:When the Elephant Goes Rogue: Canada-US relations from 1945-2025
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Prof Emerita Elizabeth Smythe Fee: Members $75 Non-members $95 \nThis course will deal with Canada-US relations from the post WWII period to the present. \nAs Pierre Elliot Trudeau once remarked about dealing with the US. It is like: \nsleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast\, if I can call it that\, one is affected by every twitch and grunt. \nThat remark captures two aspects of the reality of the relationship. One is the size and capacity of the United States economically and militarily and\, thus\, given Canada’s proximity and dependence on the US\, its capacity to harm Canada. Second\, while Canada is often depicted as the closest ally and best friend of the US\, that relationship is much more complicated and driven not so much by shared values as material interests. The course will examine relations thematically\, rather than chronologically\, focussing on three main themes: \n\nBorders\, security and defence\nTrade\, investment and economic integration\,\nPolitical and diplomatic issues\n\nThe themes will be approached from a Canadian perspective looking at these relationships and key actors including national leaders\, parties\, corporations and sub-national governments (e.g. provinces). The course will address the perennial question: can Canada be fully sovereign and independent\, especially in periods when it is facing unpredictable and hostile actions from the elephant? If so\, how?
