In these classes we’ll examine music that had its origins in the wonder of the animal world, the flowing of a stream or a mountain storm, works of art by Raphael, Michelangelo, Watteau and Chagall, and poetry by Goethe, Lammartine and Byron. We’ll even throw in Alice in Wonderland and a few familiar fairy tales. With music from the 17th and the 20th centuries, we’ll be able to discuss how changing artistic attitudes shaped the way composers brought the extra-musical to life in amazing and moving ways. Class #1 We will examine the goals of programmatic music and we will discuss music inspired by nature including musical representations of animals including birds, beasts and aquatic life. We’ll also talk about the natural world in “The Four Seasons” by Vivaldi, piano pieces depicting the beauty of Switzerland by Franz Liszt, and Beethoven’s love of the outdoors in his Pastoral symphony. We’ll also talk about how the composers have used basic musical elements to bring their subject matter to life. Class #2 With the same goals in mind as Class #1, we’ll examine music inspired by art and literature including Michelangelo’s The Thinker, Raphael’s The Marriage of the Virgin, Botticelli’s Spring, some of Marc Chagall’s stained glass windows, and Italian fountains. We’ll also enter the world of literature with Goethe’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Byron’s Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage and Cervantes’ Don Quixote. Just for fun, we’ll also hear some music inspired by fairy tales and the world of Alice in Wonderland.|Seniors|11/13/09|11/20/09|1:30 - 3:30 PM|$45 ($30 members)|633-4991|PILLAR|30 East Rio Grande|Colorado Springs|CO|80903|visitpillar.org||9/16/2009|9/17/2009| 363|Middle Eastern Dance I (Belly Dance)|Express yourself with belly dancing, an ancient, fun and exciting art form.

At the same time that the global economy is sweeping away financial borders between countries, Americans, in particular, are becoming more concerned with national boundaries in matters of immigration and national identity. Much or most of the present debate concerns the border between the United States and Mexico. The class will discuss immigration policy and how changing conceptions of the United States – Mexican border affects both countries’ sense of who they are and where they are. Included will be discussion as to why the present immigration situation is unlikely to change. The class will be illustrated with works of art and photos. Much of the discussion will derive from Professor Monroy’s celebrated new book, The Border’s Within: Encounters Between Mexico and the U.S. In that book, the author invested the issue of the border with a sense of compassion by presenting important stories from California, Mexico and America. The class will explore the perils and opportunities the New World Border between Mexico and the United States presents to the people of both countries.|Seniors|11/10/09|11/10/09|2:00 - 5:00 PM|$25 ($12 members)|633-4991|PILLAR|30 East Rio Grande|Colorado Springs|CO|80903|visitpillar.org||9/16/2009|9/17/2009| 489|The Five Keys to Financial Success and the Six Things You Should Never Do|This class will provide the tools needed to take charge of your financial future - a few do’s and a few don’ts.

In the last fifteen years a new way of thinking has emerged called Web-Thinking, based on both the model of the spider web and the World Wide Web. This type of thinking is thought to be a more effective way of doing business and living our lives. It recognizes the inter-relationship of our lives and is now being used in business, spirituality, mathematics, anthropology, the arts, aviation and medicine. This presentation will be a lecture/ discussion. In it we will discuss what Web-Thinking is and how we can apply it to our lives to make what we do more effective and to live kinder more relational lives.|Seniors|12/01/09|12/01/09|1:30 - 3:30 PM|$22 ($10 members)|633-4991|PILLAR|30 East Rio Grande|Colorado Springs|CO|80903|visitpillar.org||9/16/2009|9/18/2009| 548|Youth Dance Classes - Advanced Ballet |Do you have a young dancer on your hands?
