SUMMARY:Legacy Tour: Arab Musicians Marcel\, Rami & Sary Khalife
DESCRIPTION:Alif Institute is proud to bring Marcel Khalife’s The Legacy Tour to Atlanta\, Georgia. Legendary Lebanese composer\, singer\, and oud master Marcel Khalife\, is joined by his son\, virtuoso pianist Rami Khalife\, and his nephew\, cellist Sary Khalife\, in a program that underscores his family’s incredible musical legacy.  \n\n\n\nRevered as a cultural icon in the Arab World and beyond\, Marcel Khalife is deeply attached to the text of great contemporary Arab poets and is an innovator in Arab music who draws upon traditional forms and blends Western elements to create an evocative sound that has captivated audiences around the world. His extensive body of work transcends his lyrical works to encompass groundbreaking compositions\, orchestral and choral works\, music for dance\, and concertos for a variety of traditional Arabic instruments.The cross-generational Khalife trio will perform a selection of Marcel’s revered classics that endeared him to millions in the Arab World\, with new arrangements alongside original compositions. Sary Khalife masterfully incorporates the Arabic quarter tone on his cello\, seamlessly weaving Arabic and Western sounds\, while Rami’s pianistic skills combine his classical training from The Juilliard School with a “Keith-Jarrett-like approach to jazz and improvisation.” (Daily Telegraph\, Australia) \n\n\n\nFor more information about Alif Institute\, visit https://www.alifinstitute.org. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Mind the Gap: Bridging Franco-American Cultural Differences at Work
DESCRIPTION:Despite the long-standing friendship between the U.S. and France\, the cultural gaps between French and Americans are as different as Coca-Cola and a fine Bordeaux. In today’s fast-paced and complex global environment\, increasing understanding of the impact culture has on communication and work practices is the key to driving harmonious working relationships between the two cultures. This interactive presentation will highlight some of the historical and cultural factors that have shaped the beliefs and values in each country and how they impact behaviors at work.

SUMMARY:Kinoabend: Zwei zu Eins - Movie Night
DESCRIPTION:ZWEI ZU EINS is a larger-than-life comedy about love and friendship\, about money and justice with the Oscar-nominated actress Sandra Hüller and Max Riemelt and Ronald Zehrfeld. \n\n\n\nThe film is an ode to a time in German history when anything and everything seemed possible.Halberstadt in East Germany during the summer of 1990. Maren (Sandra Hüller)\, Robert (Max Riemelt) und Volker (Ronald Zehrfeld) have known and loved each other since their childhood days. Pure chance lets them come across a storage facility with Billions of now outdated East German currency – left there to rot. The three friends smuggle backpacks full of money out\, and together with friends and neighbors they develop a plan – a system – to turn the worthless money into household items and other valuables which they use to trick the encroaching capitalism and West-Germans that come with it.Director Natja Brunckhorst based her summer comedy on true events: After the fall of the Berlin Wall and shortly before the German reunification\, millions of East German marks were stored in underground bunkers near Halberstadt\, a small city in the former GDR. In total\, nearly 400 tons of paper money were hidden away during the transition to a unified German currency. It is a fact that some of this money was stolen\, though to this day\, no one knows how much. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets

SUMMARY:Art of Diplomacy Tour of Cuba with Ambassador Charles Shapiro
DESCRIPTION:Curious about Cuba? Ambassador (ret.) Charles Shapiro and Amanda Mattingly are leading a trip to Havana June 12-16\, 2025 to meet with a wide range of Cuban academics\, artists\, small business owners and others to figure out what is going on and how the United States should respond.
