SUMMARY:Flamenco Concert by La Macarena de Jerez
DESCRIPTION:Direct from Spain\, the exceptional Macarena de Jerez visits Atlanta to perform flamenco singing and dance in the style of her hometown of Jerez de la Frontera. She is a festera – one of the only women in this role in the art form. In this role\, she uses song and dance to create humor and excitement on stage. She will be accompanied by Paco Fernández on guitar\, who learned the many aspects of flamenco while growing up in a family of artists in Seville\, Spain. The two will be joined by participants of the APERTURE residency\, a program to amplify flamenco arts in Georgia. Together\, they present flamenco in its tradition of improvisation\, building on the action and reaction by those on stage and in the audience. \n  \nAbout the Artists: \nFlamenco singer and dancer La Macarena de Jerez is one of the most well-respected artists in flamenco across Spain. She is known for singing the grand songs of the flamenco canon\, as well as for being one of the few females in the role of festera – a character who uses song and dance to create humor and excitement on stage. She debuted on stage at age 10 at the famous Villamarta Theater in her hometown of Jerez de la Frontera\, Spain. At 15\, she performed her first solo concert at la Peña Los Cernícalos in the same city\, and she was on stage in the important festival named the Bienal de Sevilla when she was 18 years old. She has since performed in major theaters and festivals across Spain and around the world. In addition\, she has been recorded on flamenco albums\, including Concierto Flamenco de Navidad (1995)\, Jerez Joven por bulerías (1996)\, and La Mujer y el cante en compás de origen (1999). \nFlamenco guitarist Paco Fernández is part of a famous and important flamenco family in Seville\, Spain. He began playing guitar when he was eight years old. His career as a performing artist developed alongside his sister\, brother\, and parents\, all of whom are accomplished artists. Paco debuted on stage at age 12\, and he toured Spain performing with his family at theaters and music halls. After that\, he spent nearly a decade touring Europe\, the United States of America\, Japan\, and India. He has performed with Camarón de la Isla\, Antonio Núñez ’Chocolate’\, Farruco\, and other legendary and iconic artists of his time. He published his first album\, entitled Sastipén Talí in 2005\, collaborating with Dorantes\, Diego de Morao\, Potito y Antonio Fernández Montoya “El Farru”\, as well as his siblings.

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Former AGCO Chairman and CEO Martin Richenhagen Discusses 'The America Whisperer' at the Goethe-Zentrum
DESCRIPTION:Doing business in the world’s largest economy can be hard\, especially as an outsider. Martin Richenhagen\, the longtime chairman and CEO of Atlanta-based tractor manufacturer AGCO Corp.\, and former Chairman of the German American Chamber of Commerce Southeast (GACC)\, used his deep corporate experience and hard-won cross-cultural expertise to crack the code on working with Americans\, for a time serving as the only German-born chief executive of a Fortune 500 company and leading the global enterprise to new heights.  \nJoin Global Atlanta\, Goethe-Zentrum Atlanta\, and the German American Chamber of Commerce Southeast\, for an interactive discussion with Mr. Richenhagen on his German-language book\, Der Amerika-Flüsterer: Mein Weg vom deutschen Religionslehrer zum US-Topmanager (The America Whisperer: My Journey from Religion Teacher to U.S. Executive). In conversation with Managing Editor Trevor Williams\, Mr. Richenhagen will reflect on his personal experiences while offering thoughts on the current transatlantic business and trade climate.  \nWhile the meat of the discussion will be in English\, welcoming remarks will be offered in German\, along with readings in German from the text and a bilingual Q&A — Mr. Richenhagen will answer in the language in which the question is asked —  in keeping with the spirit of the book and the mission of the Goethe-Zentrum\, Atlanta’s German cultural center and language institute\, which will hold a grand opening on its new downtown offices just days before our event. \nIn addition to his German roots\, Mr. Richenhagen is a fluent French speaker who has been knighted by the French government for his contributions to the spread of French language and culture. That’s a fitting connection\, given that the Goethe shares space with the Alliance Française d’Atlanta.  \nA portion of the proceeds and donations collected via the form will go toward furthering German language education in Atlanta. \nThis event is part of Global Atlanta’s Authors Amplified series\, sponsored by the Atlanta Global Studies Center. \nLight bites/drinks will be provided.  \nAbout the Book\nIn The America Whisperer Dr. Richenhagen recalls his roots in postwar Cologne and the character traits that contributed to his long and successful career in the United States. As a prominent proponent of strong German-American ties\, Dr. Richenhagen shares his views on the transatlantic relationship and corporate responsibility as well as his outlook for the 2021 German federal election. \nAbout the Author\nMartin Richenhagen was the first and for many years the only German CEO of a US Fortune 500 company.
