DESCRIPTION:What is a song? When do words function as sound and when do not
	es represent meaning? Is tradition closer to conservatism or progress? Doe
	s poetry die when it is sung? Why do religions have hymns? How is it that\
	, when reading the written word\, we may actually perceive a musical score
	? What is a product of its time\, what is timeless\, and what is just a wa
	ste of time? How many centuries can fit inside three minutes?\n\nThe song 
	is the breath of humanity through the centuries.\n\nWe are going to look a
	t its source\, the course it follows\, and where it leads – the obvious pa
	ths\, its tools\, but also its intangible elements\, the way it engulfs us
	\, and how it weaves its way in and all around us.\n\nThis lecture is for 
	those interested in music\, language\, or sound. And\, of course\, it is f
	or the lovers of song.\n\nAlkinoos Ioannidis is a singer-songwriter who ha
	s released multiple solo albums\, most of which have gone gold or platinum
	. Born in Nicosia\, Cyprus\, he studied classical guitar at the European C
	onservatory and studied theatre at the Drama School of the National Theatr
	e of Greece and philosophy at The National and Kapodistrian University of 
	Athens\, and later signed to Universal Music. In addition to writing songs
	\, he has composed music for dance\, film\, and theater\, and arranged or 
	produced albums for other artists. His symphonic work is often performed b
	y orchestras in different countries. During the last three decades\, he ha
	s given more than 2\,000 concerts all over the world. His influences range
	 from traditional Cypriot songs\, Greek songwriting\, Near Eastern traditi
	ons\, folk\, rock\, electronic\, and classical music.\n\nIoannidis will al
	so give a live concert at Schoenberg Hall on Saturday\, April 27.  For tic
