Cutural Events Board & Program Council Present:
RODRIGO Y GABRIELA - An Evening of Music & Discussion
*** RODRIGO Y GABRIELA PERFORMANCE POSTPONED TO APRIL 27th ***
The Rodrigo y Gabriela performance has been officially postponed from Friday, April 1st to Wednesday, April 27th. The event will take place in Macky Auditorium beginning at 8:00PM, with doors at 7:00PM. The date change comes as a result of an unforeseen scheduling conflict with the performers, completely out of the control of the University of Colorado. We sincerely apologize for the date change and are doing everything possible to minimize inconvenience for current ticket-holders.
Tickets to the originally scheduled April 1st performance are officially SOLD-OUT. However, all tickets for the performance on April 1st will be honored at the performance on April 27th. There will be a refund period for all ticket-holders unable to make the re-scheduled performance starting Monday, April 4th at 11:00 a.m. and ending on Friday, April 15th at 4:00 p.m. For those student ticket-holders unable to make the re-scheduled performance, refunds will be provided in the UMC Connection. For all non-student ticket holders, refunds will be provided through Extreme Tix and you should be receiving an email with instructions. Again, tickets for the performance on the 1st will be accepted at the performance on the 27th.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience the date change may cause. Please call the Program Council office at 303.492.7704 or email speakers.coordinator.ceb@gmail.com with any questions.
-----------------------------
The event will showcase the duo’s signature virtuosic guitar playing while providing an intimate opportunity to hear the stories behind the rhythms and melodies. The night will entail a truly remarkable and unique exploration of Rodrigo y Gabriela’s diverse and multicultural influences as they’ve played out across their music and experiences.
The duo first met as teenagers in Mexico City and has become a world-class touring act since then, performing all over globe. Their music, an innovative hybrid of metal, jazz, and classical acoustic guitar, has transcended numerous cultures and is celebrated across many continents.
The performance will be in Macky Auditorium on April 1, 2011 at 8:00PM. ALL tickets will go ON SALE Friday, March 18th. Student tickets are $5 and can only be purchased with a valid student Buff One Card through the UMC Connection on the first floor of the UMC. A BuffOne card will also be required at the doors for admission with a student ticket. Non-student tickets are $30 and will be available through www.programcouncil.com.

The Cultural Events Board presents: The Langston Hughes Project
The Langston Hughes Project is a multimedia jazz concert that captures the works of legendary poet Langston Hughes. "Ask Your Mama: 12 Moods of Jazz" is an epic poem written to pay homage to the global struggle for artistic and social freedom among African Americans during the 1960s, as well as to forge a social commentary with music, art, and culture. It orginally included musical cues, but was never performed as written during Langston Hughes' lifetime. Finally, thanks to Dr. Ron McCurdy and his jazz quartet, through the Langston Hughes Project, we are able see the beauty of Hughes’ words with the beauty of jazz to recreate a moment in our cultural history.
The event will take place at 7:30pm in the UMC Glenn Miller Ballroom on Thursday, February 3rd. It is free and open to the public. Doors open at 6:45pm. For more information, email Daniel Oxenhandler at speakers.coordinator.ceb@gmail.com.
