SUMMARY:Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII: A Visible Veterans Program with Frederick Beseler
DESCRIPTION:Join the La Crescent Public Library and presenter Frederick Beseler to learn about the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASPs) of WWII. The WASPs were organized in order to provide pilots\, replacing the male pilots being sent overseas and into combat. The WASPs flew more than 60 million miles in every type of aircraft in the Army Air Forces inventory\, from biplane trainers to four-engine bombers and transports and 400-plus MPH fighters. The primary role of the WASPs was delivering the thousands of new aircraft from the factories to airfields around the United States — including Alaska — where the male pilots trained on those aircraft before taking them overseas. \nThis program is part of our Visible Veterans series\, and made possible thanks to a grant through SELCO and the MN Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. This grant is a collaboration between the La Crescent Public Library\, the La Crescent Area Historical Society\, the American Legion Post #595\, Veterans of Foreign Wars Post #11542\, and the City of La Crescent.

SUMMARY:La Crosse New Music Festival Concert #1: (un)settled
DESCRIPTION:Join regional musicians for a celebration of New Music! Featuring innovative and experimental pieces by living composers\, this annual festival boasts four distinct concerts over the course of three days. This year’s theme draws on music and its connection to a sense of place\, which appears in various forms in every concert. \n(un)settled: Thursday November 6\, 7:30 p.m. \nOur first concert\, un(settled)\, features performances by members of the UWL Symphony Orchestra\, the UWL Wind Ensemble\, Alyssa Gaines on flute and piccolo\, students from Logan High School under the direction of Brian Renkas\, and UWL Professors Dr. Jonathan Borja and Dr. Mary Tollefson. All performances are free and open to the public\, no reservations required. \n(un)familiar: Friday November 7\, 7:30 p.m. \nExperience an evening of bold creativity at the second concert\, (un)familiar\, of the 2025 La Crosse New Music Festival featuring Chicago-based flutist Sasha Ishov.

Delicate\, sensitive and innovative\, this program presents a range of colorful works and invites the audience to re-imagine virtuosity. All performances are free and open to the public\, no reservations required. \n(meta)physical: Saturday November 8 at 4 p.m. \nThe third concert of the 2025 La Crosse New Music Festival\, (meta)physical\, features spouses Eric Miller\, cello\, and Sue Ellen Dubbert\, pianist\, joined by violinist Leanne Kelso League. The program is made up of music by the Estonian composer Arvo Pärt\, whose aesthetic draws on medieval and Renaissance music\, but more profoundly\, draws on his Orthodox Christian faith. Those who attend should expect a contemplative spirit\, echoing the 2024 festival’s theme of Minimalism. All performances are free and open to the public\, no reservations required. \nregion(less): Saturday November 8\, 7:30 p.m. \nFor our last concert\, region(less)\, we are excited to welcome Zeitgeist\, a long-established leader in contemporary music based just up the road in Redwing.

SUMMARY:tick\, tick...BOOM!
DESCRIPTION:tick\, tick…BOOM!\nBy Jonathan Larson\nDirected by Nic Barilar \nOn the brink of his 30th birthday\, an aspiring musical theatre composer navigates love\, friendship\, and the pressure to create something great before time runs out.

Scored by the rock-inspired music that redefined the genre for the ‘90s\, tick\, tick… BOOM! explores the ticking-time-bombs that we set for ourselves\, the social pressures to succeed\, and how those pressures can make us lose sight of what’s most important. \nPerformance Dates\nNovember 7-8 & 13-15\, 2025 at 7:30 p.m.\nNovember 9 & 16\, 2025 at 2:00 p.m.\nFrederick Theatre\, Morris Hall\nGeneral Admission Seating. \nONLINE ticket sales begin Wednesday\, October 1 at www.uwlax.edu/theatre-and-dance.

SUMMARY:Daniel Adam Maltz Fortepiano American Tour
DESCRIPTION:What: Daniel Adam Maltz Fortepiano Lecture-Recital\nWhen: November 13 at 7:30 p.m.\nWhere: Annett Recital Hall\, Truman T. Lowe Center for the Arts\nAdmission: Free and open to the public.\nMore Info: Contact the Department of Music at 608.785.8409 \nUWL Music will host Daniel Adam Maltz\, a Vienna-based American fortepianist celebrated for his historically informed performances of Classical-era music\, for a two-day residency and public concert from November 13-14\, 2025. The visit is supported by an Eagle Visiting Scholar/Artist Grant and will include a public lecture-recital at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday\, November 13\, in Annett Recital Hall\, located in the Truman T. Lowe Center for the Arts. \nMaltz performs on replicas of 18th-century Viennese fortepianos\, offering audiences the rare chance to hear the works of Haydn\, Mozart\, and Beethoven as they might have sounded in the composers’ own time. For this residency\, he will bring his personal fortepiano to campus—an instrument not otherwise available in the region—making this a unique musical and educational opportunity for the UWL and La Crosse communities. \n“Having Daniel Adam Maltz on campus connects our students and audiences directly with the sound world of the Classical period\,” says Dr. Mary Tollefson\, Associate Professor of Music and residency organizer. “His artistry and scholarship will be a unique opportunity for our student-musicians to interact with an international artist\, and his visit will enrich the way we think about interpretation\, sound\, and musical meaning.” \nIn addition to his public concert\, Maltz will lead a voice and piano collaboration masterclass\, and a course lecture on Classical-era performance practice. His teaching focuses on how historical instruments and techniques illuminate the expressive intent behind Classical notation—an approach that blends musicology\, cultural history\, and performance. \nA graduate of the Royal Academy of Music in London and the University for Music and Performing Arts in Vienna\, Maltz has performed across Europe\, North America\, and Asia\, and is host of the podcast Mozart Snapshots\, which explores performance traditions of the Classical era. \nEntry to the lecture-recital on November 13 is free and open to the public.
