This humorous, jazzy program is filled with themes that tingle our senses. Whether it be skiing down the Alps and feeling the thrill of speed, or that amazing smell & taste of Bordeaux wine, we experience human pleasure through various facets of life. Highlight of the program is the sensational scandals and stories of Pot and Lid’s marriage in Martinu’s La revue de cuisine, performed by Artistic Director Jinjoo Cho, Principal Clarinetist of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra Sang Yoon Kim, Principal Trumpeter of the Columbus Symphony Mark Grisez, and more!
2022 ENCORE Highlighted Living Composer Andrew Rindfleisch’s work, Night Singing, is included in this program.
IDEAS - ENCORE Conversations (6 PM)
Brandon Chrostowski, EDWINS Leadership & Restaurant Institute
Brandon Edwin Chrostowski is on a mission to change the face of re-entry in the United States. In 2007, he founded EDWINS Leadership & Restaurant Institute. His belief that “every human being regardless of their past has the right to a fair and equal future” is what has driven the creation of EDWINS. The idea for EDWINS was born “from a break” that Chrostowski received early in life and has grown into a six-month program conducted at EDWINS restaurant in Cleveland, Ohio as well as in prison. His approach is simple: arm those re-entering society with a skill set and a smile. The program provides training in Culinary Arts and the Hospitality Industry. Individuals are not only equipped with basic culinary skills, but also are assisted with finding employment, have the opportunity to utilize free housing, basic medical care, clothing, job coaching, and literacy programs.
