This year's course will feature poems by state poets laureate. The responsibility of a State Poet Laureate is essentially the same as the U.S Poets Laureate, “…to make public appearances at poetry readings or literary events and to promote awareness of poetry." 46 states and the District of Columbia have a State Poet Laureate, most appointed for a one or two-year term. Those participating in Poetry For The People XXlll will read selections from these State Poet Laureates and, most importantly, are encouraged to bring to the discussions their own insights, observations and perceptions. Class members’ contributions are a vital part of the class experience. Chuck Kamar received his Bachelor’s from Boston State and his Master’s from Boston University.

He has performed in Europe and throughout the United States both with orchestra and in recital. Notable engagements include concerto performances with the Milwaukee and New Jersey Symphony Orchestras and the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra. His discography includes the world-premiere recording of composer Lukas Foss’s complete piano works, early works by Donald Harris and David Del Tredici, and music by J.S. Bach, Domenico Scarlatti, Franz Schubert, Frédéric Chopin, and Modest Mussorgsky. Beliavsky’s recordings are available on all major streaming services. Beliavsky produces music documentaries through his production company, Opus1films, which in 2011 released "Sonata (1957)," a film about the distinguished American composer Donald Harris’s opus one, the Sonata for piano, and about Harris’s early career in Paris. That film was shown at Lincoln Center in New York City and was broadcast on public television. More recently, Beliavsky completed "Secret Music and Gay Body of Music," a feature film and a short film respectively, about Pulitzer Prize–winning composer David Del Tredici and the social and cultural impact of his music. These films have won multiple accolades and have been screened at film and music festivals, including QFest Houston, Berlin Shorts, and the Wisconsin Film, Mostly Modern Music, American Music, Lonely Seal International Film, Toronto LGBTQ+ Film, San Diego International Film, Rotterdam Independent Film, and San Francisco Arthouse Short Festivals. Recently, Secret Music was screened at Lehigh University and the University of Missouri–Kansas City.

These videos may be found on both the SDO’s and Beliavsky’s YouTube channels.
