Extractions: Welcome Lees-McRae Fund Recognition Societies Ways To Give ... Contact Us FORUM at Lees-McRae College FORUM was organized in 1979 by a small group of "summer people" to bring a stimulating series of cultural programs to the area. With the help of Lees-McRae College, one of the region's most important resources, FORUM has grown by leaps and bounds and embarks on its twenty-second year of providing both cultural enrichment and wholesome entertainment. The formula for the selection of programs is unique. Most programs are selected as a result of personal contact with an area resident. Recommendations are made to the Program Advisory Group who make selections, and contact the artists to see if they are available and will work within FORUM's limited time frame and budget. The Program Advisory Group attempts to balance its choices to provide presentations of thought provoking speakers, vocalists, big band/brass, chamber ensembles, pianists, dance and drama. In the past the group has booked speakers such as the late Charles Kuralt, Ambassador Richard Walker, and General Andrew Goodpaster. Other big names programmed by the Advisory Group include the North Carolina Symphony, The Junaluska Singers, Mac Frampton and the Loonis McGlohon Trio.

88keys - Artist Interviews - Gekic CV RR How important is vocal technique and the opera repertoire to a pianist? JuanaZayas(coming soon); Busoni (coming soon); Godowsky (coming soon). http://www.88keys.com/docs/in_gekic.html
Extractions: By Carole Verona and Robert Rimm From his piano studio, Kemal Gekic looks out over the weathered rooftops of the city and reflects on the difficult lessons learned through the experience of living, teaching and performing in a region torn by war. Gekic (pronounced GAY-keech), 35, a native Croatian, directs the piano department at the Art Academy of Novi Sad in Serbia. The son of two physicians, Gekic's musical career began at age one and a half, when he could already pick out accurate melodies on the piano. He received his early musical training from his aunt, Professor Lorenza Batturina, and in 1978 entered the class of Professor Jokuthon Mihailovic, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory, at the Art Academy of Novi Sad. In 1982, he earned the highest mark ever granted a diploma exam recital and was immediately appointed to the faculty of the piano department. "Nothing lasts forever," he said in a telephone interview from Yugoslavia, using a phrase most of us would consider a cliché. To Gekic, though, the feelings are very real. The recent war's effect on the pianist and his students has been nothing less than profound. "They say when there is war, the muses are asleep. Not so in Novi Sad. A great influx of people wanted to come to the school. My students' attention turned to the music. There they could forget about their troubles."
