University of Judaism to host music, ballet




Violinist Lisa DeLuca and pianist Beth Sussman will present an informal, audience-friendly recital at 7:30 p.m. on Wed., July 24 in the Gindi Auditorium at the University of Judaism, 15600 Mulholland Drive, Los Angeles. They’ll interact with the audience by sharing anecdotes about the pieces and the composers.


Dennis Karmazyn, principal cellist of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, will join them for Dvorak’s "Dumky Trio."


Tickets are $10. For more information, please call (310) 440-1246.


Also at the same venue at 7 p.m. on Sun., July 28, Aeolian Ballet Theatre will present the American premiere of "The House of Bernarda Alba." The ballet is based on the folk tragedy of poet/playwright Federico Garcia Lorca, one of Spain’s greatest dramatists of the 20th Century who was murdered by Spanish Nationalists in 1936.


In this production, tensions rise in a household of five daughters and a tyrannical widowed mother. But repression and an enforced eight-year mourning period cannot refrain the sexuality and the self-determination of the unmarried women.


The ballet is choreographed by Adonis Daukayev, who brings a blend of Russian classical structure and contemporary European style to his original modern ballet.


Tickets range from $18-$20 (full-time students receive $2 discount).
