Military Justice and the Civil War (ON ZOOM)&nbsp;During the&nbsp; Civil War, the Union forces frequently used military tribunals as an alternative forum instead of civilian courts to maintain law and order in both the North and areas in the South under their control. Their use raised serious constitutional and civil liberty concerns. Nevertheless, they were an important feature of the laws of war that were then being developed by the Lincoln Administration. The program will focus on the notorious 1865 trial by military tribunal of Confederate Captain Henry Wirz, the commandant of Andersonville Prison, who was the only person executed for the wartime atrocities. It will also&nbsp; examine the limitations on the use of military tribunals established in the famous Supreme Court case,&nbsp;Ex parte Milligan&nbsp;(1868). Along the way, we will explore the fairness of military tribunals and their use&nbsp; in enforcing individual responsibility for wartime atrocities - questions that would surface again in the war-crimes trials of the 20th century. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Who doesn’t love learning about a priceless painting found in an attic? Or a sculpture sitting for decades in a public garden, only to be found out as an Italian treasure? &nbsp;After Mallory found herself in the middle of her own art historical discovery when she uncovered the unknown provenance of a Rodin sculpture sitting in a New Jersey town hall, she learned just how many times things like this have happened throughout history. &nbsp;This lecture explores the stories of several different important and valuable works of art that have been rediscovered in unexpected places. &nbsp;The program reviews a brief background of each piece, artist, and how the piece came to be lost, and then found.&nbsp;

Ever since the 1922 world premiere in Paris, audiences have been absolutely dazzled—literally blown away—by Maurice Ravel’s orchestration of Modest Mussorgsky’s piano composition&nbsp;Pictures at an Exhibition. Chances are you've heard parts of this famous work—but have you really listened to them?
On Saturday, November 7th, Maestro George Marriner Maull (Artistic Director of The Discovery Orchestra) and special guest pianist Craig Ketter will lead the audience through an interactive—and at times amusing—experience of the magical effect achieved when a piano work is arranged for&nbsp;full symphony orchestra.&nbsp;Several movements will be referenced, but in particular the final movement—"The Great Gate of Kiev"—will be the subject of this hour of musical discovery.
 A Listening Guide and other visual enhancements will aid the journey. And in addition, full-sound film footage from a live performance by the Orchestra of the Mariinsky Theater under Maestro Valery Gergiev will also be part of the presentation.
Event Schedule: 6:30pm: Reception 7:30pm: Program 8:30pm: Dessert
