Mozart: The Mind and Music of a Genius
Julliard trained pianist and Harvard trained psychiatrist Dr. Richard Kogan will explore the mystery of creative genius through an examination of the life, mind and music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791). The program will be illuminated by piano performances of some of Mozart's most sublime music.

Only in America? Religion, State, and a Hasidic Town in Rural New York
This presentation will discuss the remarkable case of Kiryas Joel, a town in New York state comprised exclusively of Satmar Hasidic Jews. What does this town of religiously observant Jews tell us about the "wall of separation" between religion and state of which Thomas Jefferson spoke? Has that Jeffersonian ideal given way to a new vision of religious liberties as the paramount constitutional right? These are some of the key questions at the heart of the debate over Kiryas Joel - and other strong forms of religious community - in the 21st century.
David N. Myers, Ph.D., Profess of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Artistic Director, Weill Cornell Music and Medicine Program
Brennan Hall 228, Pearn Auditorium ⋅ 7:00 p.m. ⋅ $15 per person
