In 1910, the architect Adolf Loos gave a lecture titled “Ornament and Crime.” The lecture gave voice to a conviction central to early Modernism: that a building should honestly express its own structure, materials, and purpose, and that the historical ornament being layered onto the architecture of the time, by disguising all three, was a kind of deception. More than a century later, its influence can still be felt in contemporary architecture that reads as seamless and unadorned.

Violinist Théotime Langlois de Swarte and lutenist Thomas Dunford illuminate aspects of the elusive amalgamation that is the 17th century English notion of melancholy. The inconsolable “Mad Lover” of this program is reimagined as a character from the reign of Charles II. His tale is told through music from the pen of such violin virtuosos as the prodigiously gifted Nicola Matteis. Heightened by the exuberance and abandon common to those musicians transplanted from Italy, the beguiling nuances of this language of yearning and loss continue to echo in the popular music of our time.

Democratic backsliding is typically explained by what aspiring autocrats do once in power: capture courts, weaponize law, and polarize electorates. This lecture traces the process further back, to its origin inside political parties: How do insurgent factions seize control of ruling parties before subverting democratic politics? What role do financial resources, party rules, and media control play in allowing a captured faction to consolidate power within the party before turning against democratic institutions?

House of Waters is the confluence of multiple musical streams, with immersive studies in India, Senegal, Japan, the Americas, and beyond, all influencing their genre-defying performances. This Grammy-nominated trio is at the forefront of jazz innovation, featuring an original collaboration led by Chicago native Max ZT—the “Jimi Hendrix of the Hammered Dulcimer” (NPR)—and six-string bass master and virtuoso Moto Fukushima from Japan, with a drummer to be announced soon. You won’t want to miss what Béla Fleck calls “the most original band on the planet.”
