SUMMARY:Dixie Forum: A Window to the World
DESCRIPTION:Learn how songs work when singer/songwriter Bernice Lewis presents "The Anatomy & Physiology of Song" and offers an acoustic guitar performance at Dixie State University's weekly lecture series "Dixie Forum: A Window on the World." \n\n\n\nDuring her Dixie Forum presentation\, Lewis will offer a lecture and demonstration about how the structure of contemporary song evolved over history.

She also teaches at Colorado College in Colorado Springs\, Colo.\, and Rock On Camp at Berkshire Community College in Pittsfield\, Mass. Additionally\, she is a founding member of The Ladies Auxiliary Ukulele Orchestra. \n\n\n\nDixie Forum is a weekly lecture series designed to introduce the St. George community and DSU students\, faculty and staff to diverse ideas and personalities while widening their worldviews via a 50-minute presentation.
