While you mingle, you’ll enjoy:

Joe Rapolla

is the Chair of the Music & Theater Arts Department and Music Industry Program Director at Monmouth University, he will give a talk titled:

A Long Long Time Ago…The 60s and the ‘teens - 50 years apart

Music, music culture and technology have evolved since the days of Camelot’s debut on Broadway.  What’s different, what’s the same, what’s happened to the music and the music industry? Accompanying himself on guitar, Joe will discuss how these changes have reshaped the way we create, discover, distribute and listen to music.

Kenneth Campbell, PhD.

is a history professor at Monmouth University and a specialist in english history.  His most recent book is Ireland’s History: Prehistory to the Present.  At the Salon he will give a talk titled:


The Arthurian Legend and the Decline of Chivalry


The mythical King Arthur is more important than the historical figure on which he is based (if he existed at all).  Campbell will discuss the ways in which the Arthurian legend has changed throughout history to reflect the different times in which the tales were written, from Geoffrey of Monmouth and Chretien de Troyes in the 12th century to Marion Zimmer Bradley in the 20th.  What is the enduring appeal of Camelot and what does it still mean to us?
