“Decision 2008: An Economic Perspective
with Dr. John Taylor and Dr. Laura Tyson”

Dr. Laura Tyson – Professor at the University of California

A rising number of home foreclosures, slowing economic growth
and the falling dollar are signaling doom to some economists and
consumers. However, unemployment rates are still at historically
low national levels, and some prognosticators suggest that the
doom-and-gloom scenarios are overblown. What challenges must the
future president be prepared to handle in terms of the economy?
With the election less than a month away, join presidential candidates
advisors Taylor and Tyson as they discuss and offer the economic
perspectives of Senators Obama and McCain.

San
Jose Chamber Music Society Presents:
LES PALADIN ensemble

Jérôme Correas, Director & harpsichord;
Isabelle Poulenard, soprano; Jean-Francois Lombard, tenor; with
flute, two violins, basson, cello theorbo
Program: ‘The King’s Mistress’: baroque music
written for, sung by or favored by Madame de Pompadour - by MOURET,
RAMEAU, MONDONVILLE, LULLY, DESTOUCHES, FRANCOEUR, REBEL.
Pre-concert talk: TBD
Madame de Pompadour (pictured above), favorite of King Louis
XV of France, transformed a hall of Versailles into a theatre
where she loved to entertain the court, performing songs written
for her by the most popular composers of the day, such as Rameau,
as well as ‘older’ music (by Lully for one). She was
a true artist with a high, virtuosic voice, and was a fine actress.
The King built Le Petit Trianon for her at Versailles, 1763-68.
Jérôme Correas founded Les Paladins ensemble in 1997
to recreate such experiences as this program, which they performed
at Versailles, and to revive neglected and great French and Italian
baroque repertoire. In 2002 and 2006 Correas sang for us Fauré’s
song cycle La bonne chanson.
