First come, first seated.<\/h4>\n<p><blockquote><strong>\u201cFrom the past, man obtains the insights, wisdom and hope\u00a0to face with confidence the uncertainties of the future.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 <em>John F. Kennedy\u2019s remarks to the centennial of Lincoln\u2019s Gettysburg Address,\u00a0<\/em><em>November 19, 1963, three days before his death<\/em><\/blockquote><br \/>\nIt is fitting that 50 years later we commemorate the spirit of cultural and economic progress that John F. Kennedy\u2019s leadership represented for America and the world. With this spirit, President Kennedy confronted and sought to overcome the terrifying prospects of global war, poverty, and human degradation that faced our nation and the world during his time. In the intervening years, these existential problems have come to threaten mankind in even greater magnitude, but the national mind that had joyfully embraced the challenge to conquer the Moon, has been supplanted by a spirit that belittles the sacredness of the human individual and the power of human creativity.<\/p>\n<p>Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart\u2019s Requiem is a most fitting tribute to John F. Kennedy, as Mozart\u2019s work communicates the same optimism and belief in man\u2019s infinite progress to which President Kennedy dedicated his life. The spark of optimism which marked the Kennedy era, though dimmed, is still present among us because it is embedded in the very fabric of our nation from its founding.<\/p>\n<p>Let us honor the memory of John Kennedy by not only reflecting on what was, and what could have been, but on how our culture has changed, and how we must now recommit ourselves to its renewal.<\/p>\n<p>The concert will be performed by the Schiller Institute Chorus along with an orchestra and soloists assembled for the occasion by the Schiller Institute. The performance will be at the natural \u201cVerdi tuning\u201d of A=432 Hz.<\/p>\n<p>The Schiller Institute was founded in 1984 on the initiative of Helga Zepp-LaRouche, wife of the American statesman and physical economist Lyndon LaRouche, for the purpose of reviving the paradigm of Classical culture and reasserting the right of all humanity to material, moral, and intellectual progress. It is named after Friedrich Schiller, the \u201cPoet of Freedom\u201d whose \u201dOde to Joy\u201d is immortalized by Beethoven in his Ninth Symphony.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Click image to enlarge: Invitation Flyer via Schillerinstitute Download Flyer (PDF) On January 19, 1964, Boston Honored Her Fallen Son John Fitzgerald Kennedy\u00a0With A Performance of Mozart\u2019s Requiem at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross Join Us, Exactly 50 Years Later, In A\u00a0Commemorative Performance.
