Columnated Ruins Domino, 1966:
Reading the Beach Boys’ “Surf’s Up” as Critique of Lincoln Center
Please join us next Wednesday (October 22, 4:30–6:00 p.m., Logan Terrace Room 801) as we plunge ears first into the Beach Boys’ “Surf’s Up,” led by our friend and colleague Peter Gillette. To wet your whistle, check out his paper here and a special version of the song here. Peter’s work on this topic grows out of ongoing ethnographic and archival research on the social and material history of the New York Philharmonic. We look forward to seeing you there!
