During WWII Giuseppe Verdi's Requiem was performed at the Terezin Concentration Camp as an act of defiance. In 2012 this incredible historic moment was memorialized by the film "Defiant Requiem." DEFIANT REQUIEM tells the little-known story of the Nazi concentration camp, Terezín. Led by imprisoned conductor Rafael Schächter, the inmates of Terezín fought back...with art and music. Through hunger, disease and slave labor, the Jewish inmates of Terezin hold onto their humanity by staging plays, composing opera and using paper and ink to record the horrors around them. The IUP Chorale, in collaboration with The Defiant Requiem Foundation and Penn State Altoona, will present the the Verdi Requiem as performed at Terezin.

Eighty years ago, the Italian Government began a series of Antisemitic measures that led to Italy's participation in the Holocaust. And yet, up until that point, many Italians ad boasted that they were different from other Europeans when it came to the so-called "Jewish Question" and certainly different from their new allies in Nazi Germany. So, how can one explain the subsequent Italian persecution of Jews? And, what lessons can we learn now from a consideration of the case of Antisemitism?

Film screening of The Sweet Remains' "The Independents," a musical comedy-drama created by and starring The Sweet Remains.

"The Independents" tells of three solo-artists who collide at the same crossroads and discover harmony.  Thus is born “RGB” (at least until they come up with a better band name) and what follows is their roller-coaster-ride journey across America for a one last shot at musical glory. Starring real-life bandmates RICH PRICE, GREG NAUGHTON & BRIAN CHARTRAND of THE SWEET REMAINS (30+ Million Spotify plays)-- and inspired by their real-life experiences together as a band. 

The film debuted at the 2018 Santa Barbara International Film Festival where the Hollywood Reporter hailed it "An extremely engaging film... An unconventional and sharply written script which subverts all the cliches of the star-is-born story.”  It then won the jury prize for Best Feature Film 2018 at the Omaha Film Festival — and has gone on to win audiences and plaudits at great festivals all around the U.S. including Deadcenter Film Fest, Dallas International Film Fest, Virginia Film Fest, Naples International Film Fest, and The Mill Valley Film Festival!

This film is not yet rated. Contains brief nudity and some mature language and situations.

Free admission, limited to two tickets per order.

Driven by strong lyrical and melodic writing, their songs easily appeal to fans of modern folk-rockers like Jason Mraz, Ray Lamontagne, and John Mayer. However, it is their lush harmonies that distinguish tSR from the throngs of guitar-toting troubadours and harken back to super-groups of the 60’s and 70’s like CSN, the Eagles, and Simon & Garfunkel.
