Background Music Series: Filo Rosso Society

Filo Rosso Society: Concerts for the Curious Mind

This concert will feature café-inspired music of the past. From Bach to a romance by American composer Amy Beach and early songs of the tango repertoire, sit back and enjoy an evening in a coffee shop from another time!

Founded in 2025, the Filo Rosso Society is a collective of musicians dedicated to creating concert experiences that take listeners on a journey of discovery. Possessing an insatiable desire for lifelong learning, founder and multi-genre violinist Elizabeth “Libby” Phelps aspires to share this passion for curiosity with the greater Seattle area.

The group’s performances follow the threads of ideas that unite seemingly disparate kinds of music from different places. Rather than subscribe to any hierarchy that determines if one kind of music is better than another, the Filo Rosso Society sees all music as an interconnected web that crosses time and national boundaries. Members of the group are high-level performers with specializations in baroque, jazz, tango, fiddle, and more. Using cultural context and special collaborations, the Filo Rosso Society wants to open the minds and ears of the Seattle community to the recurring ideas in music that unite all of humanity.

Drumlin Public Knowledge Series: Zombies and Fascists

Speaker: Eric Hamako

’Zombie Orientals Ate My Brain!’ Anti-Arab & Anti-Asian Themes in Zombie Film & Fiction

Since 2001, zombies have become more popular than ever.  Why?  Zombies tap into historical narratives about Arabs, Muslims, and East Asians.  Symbolizing the racial and socioeconomic “Other,” zombies are infused with Orientalist qualities such as an insatiable yet asexual hunger for the flesh, unintelligibility, implacability, and a hordelike social-structure that threatens to pollute heteronormative White family structures and racial purity.  But, some zombie stories play with and resist these Orientalist ideas – and so can we.

Background live music at Drumlin: Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar

This background live music series at Drumlin is designed to encourage people of all ages to listen to live music from around the world in a casual, conversational setting.

Slack key guitar music developed in the 1800s in Hawaii. Its history is rich and somewhat mysterious, as slack key was influenced by the many people who immigrated to Hawaii then, including English-speaking North Americans, Mexicans, Portuguese, Filipinos, Puerto Ricans, Tahitians, and Samoans. And it was was originally private and family entertainment until people started recording the music onto vinyl records after WWII.
