SUMMARY:Chucho Valdés and  Joe Lovano Quintet!
DESCRIPTION:Joe Lovano and Chucho Valdés have shared a record label—legendary Blue Note Records—for years but have never shared a stage until now. Pianist Valdes\, winner of numerous Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards\, has been a legend in Afro-Cuban jazz for the past 50 years\, while “post-Bop” jazz saxophonist (and Grammy Award winner) Lovano has recorded more albums for Blue Note than anyone else. When two fearless innovators like these come together\, the combined force of their artistry promises an evening of Afro-Cuban jazz you won’t soon forget. \nPerchance single tickets online or at the Rialto Center’s Box Office. Rialto Series Subscriptions for 2016-2017 year are available at the Rialto Center’s Box Office now. \nFree Validated Parking at the 100 Peachtree Parking (formally known as the Equitable Parking Deck).

SUMMARY:“An Evaluation of the Philippine Presidential Elections of May 2016:   The Philippines Today and Tomorrow.”
DESCRIPTION:A luncheon lecture featuring Chairman Andy Bautista\, Commission on Elections of the Philippines. Chairman Bautista will be in Washington D.C. as on observer for the U.S. National Elections. \nIn light of the declaration by Filipino President Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday that he intends to end the Philippines’ military and economic ties to the United States\, this event is likely to be most interesting. While speaking at the Philippines-China Trade and Investment Forum\, President Duterte indicated a preference for dealing with Chinese officials and businesses\, declaring\, “I announce my separation from the United States both in the military but economics also… I have separated from them so I will be dependent on you for a long time. But don’t worry\, we will also help.” Duterte also suggested he’d like Russia to join in this new Eastern Hemisphere alliance: “I realign myself in your ideological flow and maybe I will also go to Russia to talk to Putin\,” he said. “There are three of us against the world. China\, Philippines\, Russia.”

SUMMARY:Breakfast and Discussion with Oliver Owcza
DESCRIPTION:“Transatlantic Challenges – A European Perspective” \nToday´s world faces a growing number of challenges: unsettled political and humanitarian crises in the Middle East\, North Africa and Afghanistan; a corresponding increase of migrants challenging established immigration systems of receiving countries; an increasingly negative perception of globalization and even a growing skepticism about the merits of international cooperation and trade. Against this background the transatlantic partnership has been and is an essential pillar for jointly addressing these challenges and constantly highlighting the potential of trust and value based cooperation. The discourse intends to summarize the most important ones from a European/German perspective. \nAbout Oliver Owcza \nSince July 2015 Oliver Owcza serves as Head of Division for North America in the Federal Foreign Office in Berlin. \nIn the academic year 2014/15 he has been invited as Fellow to the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University\, where he has researched and lectured in the area of Fragile States and International Crisis Diplomacy. \nPreviously\, he has been serving as Germany´s Deputy Ambassador in Kabul between 2012 and 2014. His responsibilities encompassed the whole range of the German political\, military\, police\, development and cultural engagement in Afghanistan. It included regular field visits\, in particular to the Northern provinces. \n\nRegister at events@gaccsouth.com
