ABOUT

Lecture Cycle

There will be lectures given by specialists in the use of Fast scan cyclic voltammetry in different applications. A special emphasis will be given to the application of this technique on dopaminergic neurotransmission in learning processes, in alcoholism and neurodegenerative conditions.

Fast scan cyclic voltammetry has become one of the most important tools for studying neurotransmitter release in vivo using a timescale of milliseconds. The traditional alternative has been a technique using in vivomicrodialysis in which samples are collected in units of minutes. In spite of the potential of this newer technique, only few neuroscientists in Brazil have access to it. The objective of this workshop is to demonstrate the principles, protocols, and applications of this technique, using anesthetized and awake rats. The participants will receive training on how to fabricate and implant electrodes to register electrochemical changes in dopamine levels in rodents and to analyze the data collected.

Musical Performances

July 14:

UAIBRASS – TRUMPET QUINTET

Fabrício Muniz, Gilson Luís, Péterson Carvalho, Renzo Costa e Wlliam Alves.

Influenced by artists such as Silvério Pontes, Zé da Velha, Maestro Duda, German Brass, Canadian Brass and the Philharmonic Orchestra of Minas Gerais, Uai Brass was founded in 2012 by four students from the School of Music at UFMG. Faced with a large repertoire of 5 trumpets, the quartet decided to transform itself into a quintet. Starting in 2013, the group joined the chamber music class of professor Celina Szrvinsk, whose guidance they considered crucial to their development.

PROGRAM:

José Ursicino da Silva – Maestro Duda (1935): Fantasia Brasileira
José Ursicino da Silva – Maestro Duda (1935): Fantasia Pernambucana
Silvério Pontes (1960)/Chico Nacarati (1957) (Arranjo William Alves): Maxixe da Família

July 15:

4 HANDED PIANO

Celina Szrvinsk e Miguel Rosselini

Professors of piano and chamber music at the School of Music at UFMG.

Formed in 1984, the duo is recognized as one of the best in the country. They have been invited to the main concert series and venues in Brazil. Outside of Brazil, they have performed in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Canada, Russia and Japan. They have also performed as soloists with such Symphony Orchestras as: São Paulo state, Minas Gerais, Campinas, USP, National, Polish Chamber Philharmonic, Baden-Baden Philharmonic and Bach-Orchester Herzogtum-Lauenburg.

PROGRAM:

Heitor Villa-Lobos (1897-1959): A Folia de um Bloco Infantil

Aylton Escobar (1943): Seresta Opus 1

Ronaldo Miranda (1948): Variações Sérias sobre um tema de Anacleto de Medeiros –Tango

GROUP OF PROFESSORS OF POPULAR MUSIIC FROM THE SCHOOL OF MUSIC AT THE FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF MINAS GERAIS (UFMG)

Clara Sandroni – vocals, Cleber Alves – sax, Cliff Korman – piano, Mauro Rodrigues – flaut, Pablo Souza – bass, Wilson Lopes – guitars

With project Reuni, a specialized group of Popular Music was created in the School of Music at UFMG.The presentation of this group is another opportunity to experience together the science of musical legacy, a knowledge that is being created and recreated every moment. It's in this moment that there is a confrontation between the past that wants to survive in the present and the passing of all time, which is like an invitation to new things. It's in this time and space that music exists, and this meeting between that which has happened and that which will, is where its beauty seems to flow.
