In a new book, writer Suleika Jaouad explains why journaling is a form of alchemy — and offers tips on how to reignite your practice if you're feeling stuck, bored or uninspired by your own writing.

Musician, composer, and multidisciplinary artist Preston Swirnoff will present "SILO Chords, a site-specific installation and performance in Bread & Salt’s Silo Room. Swirnoff’s piece is written for choir, organ, and analog tape loops. He will be joined by members of San Diego New Verbal Workshop, a community choir that performs contemporary and avant-garde vocal music. Swirnoff’s composition explores the many surprising possibilities of the chord and the unique acoustic properties of the recently re-activated silo space, built over 100 years ago with 40 foot high flour tanks once used by the old bread factory. DJ’s from Particle FM will spin records on the patio, with a special menu of food and drinks served by Alchemy. This installation/performance continues a series of sound and visual art works by Swirnoff in unconventional spaces over the past year that has taken him to an ancient cave in Greece, a 12th century castle in Sicily, a high-rise rooftop in Sofia, Bulgaria, and a giant walled garden in Oaxaca. His immersive and intimate sound works have been described in connection to a lineage of site-specific composers such as La Monte Young, Pauline Oliveros, Iannis Xenakis, Alvin Curran, and György Ligeti.

Bach Collegium San Diego Presents Knock out Sounds with Reginald Mobley The Return of Bach to Bop Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), one of the country’s leading baroque ensembles, is performing with countertenor d'Amore Reginald Mobley who showcases the thin lines between the worlds of baroque and jazz. The repertoire, from J.S. Bach and Purcell to Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald, explores the world of improvisation, ornamentation, pulsating bass lines, and most importantly, groove. “When exploring the world of Baroque music and where it intersects with jazz, who better to lead the way than one of the great countertenors of this generation, Reginald Mobley,” said BCSD Musical Director Ruben Valenzuela. “We're incredibly fortunate to have him back with BCSD after the success of Bach to Bop from a few years ago. Get ready...from Purcell and Bach to Sarah Vaughan and Duke Ellington!" BCSD partnered with local schools to develop an education curriculum surrounding this program and the similarities and differences (and historical timeline of the genres) of baroque and jazz music. The pilot program is in development but BCSD is planning on having the students perform a piece or two on the concert program as a culmination of this special program. Bach Collegium San Diego engages audiences with accessible, historically informed performances and educational programs featuring repertoire from the Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical eras. The ensemble was founded in 2003 by Music Director Ruben Valenzuela to diversify the musical offerings of the San Diego community.
