This recital was the first in a series of five recitals curated by Coady Green at fortyfivedownstairs\, which featured some of Melbourne’s brightest stars of classical and contemporary performance including Collide\, Solstice Trio\, Christopher Smith and the Rathdowne Quartet. \nSolicitude\n2020 saw the 97th birthday of Pulitzer Prize winning American composer and diarist Ned Rorem and\, in October\, the 90th birthday of Australian London-based composer John Carmichael. This program features Australian premieres of works by both composers\, including a new conclusion to Carmichael’s Latin American Dances\, written for Duo Eclettico for this recital and sent to them fresh off the press. \nIn 2020\, Duo Eclettico received a grant from City of Melbourne to establish an award for young composers. The recipient of this prize\, Gulliver Poole\, has his new work Solicitude premiered in this concert. The concert will also include a sneak preview of one movement from Linda Kouvaras’s new work for Duo Eclettico Night Pieces. The world premiere of this major new cycle will be held in November 2021 at Melbourne Recital Centre. The concert opens with Kenealy’s own arrangement of Bach’s scintillating A Minor Violin Concerto\, which reinvents the virtuosity of the original by transferring to the saxophone\, requiring complex dexterity and circular breathing techniques.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Program” tab_id=”1452941644640-19a0de81-e87a0201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f13b22-ddc7″][vc_column_text]S.

These works are not family friendly and seek to explore some of the darker pieces from Shakespeare’s repertoire. Under the direction of Ayesha Gibson and with Evelyn Krape in the title role\, King Lear is a raw and relevant exploration of one of the greatest tragedies of all time. \nDownload the season program HERE. \nSupported by The City of Melbourne.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Cast and Creatives” tab_id=”1616120101905-142c70e7-c909″][vc_column_text]Producer: Michael Mack\nArtistic Director/Marketing: Jennifer Dean\nDirector:  Ayesha Gibson\nSet Design: Hayley James\nStage Manager: Teri Steer\nLighting Design: Alex Blackwell\nSound Design: Ben Keene\nCostume Design:  Aislinn Naughton\nFight Director: John Reed \nKing Lear: Evelyn Krape\nCordelia: Isabella Ferrer\nGoneril: Claire Nicholls\nRegan: Annabelle Tudor\nFrance: John Reed\nEdmund: Matthew Connell\nFool: Don Bridges\nCornwall\, Gentleman: Johnathan Peck\nEdgar: Kayla Hamill\nAlbany: Augustin Tchantcho\nKent: Kevin Hopkins\nGloucester: Anthea Davis\nOswald:Andrew Dang \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Ticket Prices and Concessions” tab_id=”1452941768731-94b426f3-57530201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f16d74-3d9f”][vc_column_text]\nTicket Prices:\nWatch at home: $20 \n  \n  \nNO BOOKING FEE SURCHARGE[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Step. Float. Fly has been formed through a warm and sometimes mysterious observation of people and animals as they engage within everyday activities and moments of contemplation. The definition of contemplation in Chloe’s artwork is ‘a long loving look.’ Often the people are seen to be looking into the middle distance\, pausing or walking\, each on their own journey. \nThis exhibition includes 40 small finely detailed colour pencil drawings on plywood and colour swatches. The ideas surrounding this body of work are composed in three movements of the imagination – Step. Float. Fly – from which this exhibition takes its title. Each artwork considers these movements through small-scale drawings of people and animals\, stepping\, floating\, and flying. Playing with the shadows made by the figures and forms\, a connection is bridged between the colour pencil and the plywood. The playful placement of shadows made by figures is also echoed in the tiny colour pencil drawings on colour swatches. \nA sense of quiet spaciousness and gentle wonder resonates between the drawings alongside a strong solid presence. The plywood material lends itself to this feeling of solidity and space. Whilst the warmth of the wood grain surface\, seems to become an open field\, or an inner landscape\, or an expanse of water. The people and animals in Chloe’s drawings almost step\, float\, fly into the spacious plywood surface.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Artist’s Bio” tab_id=”1518320329651-b769a1a3-29e6905c-b0b3368e-b9ef2edb-f0663f53-0933d897-08bb”][vc_column_text]Chloe Vallance studied drawing at RMIT University with Godwin Bradbeer (2006 – 2009). Chloe also studied drawing and painting independently in London\, Rome and Florence (2011-2014). Chloe has held several solo exhibitions within Australia\, including showing with Fehily Contemporary at Sydney Contemporary (2015). Chloe’s work is held in public and private collections\, including the National Portrait Gallery of Australia\, Simon Mordant: Listening to Light (2015). In 2019 Chloe walked the Camino de Santiago\, 900km across parts of France and Spain\, this walk deeply inspired the current direction of Chloe’s drawing practice.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Exhibition catalogue” tab_id=”1626933540003-ed6b50e2-63ae”][vc_column_text]CLICK HERE to view the Step.

Pimpisa challenges the notions of free will and determinism through her figurative artworks with a focus on sculpture and installation.

With over eighteen years as a professional artist\, Pimpisa has exhibited worldwide including in Thailand\, Japan\, Singapore\, USA\, Korea\, Hong Kong and Australia with her work held in public and private collections. Arriving in Melbourne in 2009\, Pimpisa has embedded herself into the Australian art scene with successful and widely acclaimed shows.

Fantastique! The Life and Loves of Hector Berlioz uses journal entries\, letters and articles from Berlioz’s life and from the perspective of his second wife\, the opera singer Marie Recio\, combined with a selection of his songs\, and transcriptions of his orchestral works by Franz LIszt and Sigsimund Thalberg. \nWith mezzo-soprano Karen van Spall\, baritone Adam Miller\, pianist Coady Green\, and actor Melanie Hillman. \nCLICK HERE for program notes and translations[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Ticket Prices and Concessions” tab_id=”1452941768731-94b426f3-57530201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f1da1f-2093″][vc_column_text]\nTICKET PRICES:\nBe part of the limited live audience at the venue: $40\nFull price: $40 Music Students/Seniors: $25\nLivestream at home: $25 (Wednesday 14 July 7.30pm AEST) \n  \nNO BOOKING FEE SURCHARGE[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Live Zoom Broadcast” tab_id=”1617940828721-e5ccdbeb-a084″][vc_column_text]Recording\nIf you are unable to tune into the performance on the night\, please email us at communications@fortyfivedownstairs.com to let us know.

This June\, RUNT returns after a critically-acclaimed\, sold-out premiere season in February. \nRunt\, a small undernourished woman has endured enough of the misery of being the runt of the litter. She toughens up and attempts to take power\, to lead the oppressed\, to rise up and fight\, for equality\, for decency and what’s right. She liberates sack after sack after sack of miserable runts. And she grows. She feels herself reaching eight foot or more. She gets a taste for what it means to be great. Trouble is\, ‘greatness forgets runtness‘. \n‘This is a spectacular production which is as striking as it is raw’ Stage Whispers \n★★★★ ‘…between Susie Dee’s direction\, Cornelius’ writing and Wilks’ uncompromising performance\, Runt confronts you with transfixing dramatic art…’ The Age \n‘We’ve only just dipped our toe into March\, but goodness gracious Runt is far and above the best theatre of the year to date… a stunning piece of theatre that shouldn’t be missed.’ Australian Arts Review \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Cast and Creatives” tab_id=”1452941644640-19a0de81-e87a0201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f15c2c-1e63″][vc_column_text]Writer/Co-creator: Patricia Cornelius \nDirector/Co-creator: Susie Dee \nPerformer/Co-creator: Nicci Wilks \nComposer: Kelly Ryall \nLighting Designer: Jenny Hector \nDesigner: Romanie Harper \nChoreographer: Michelle Heaven \nPhotography: Pier Carthew \nStage Manager/Production Manager: Bec Moore \nDirector’s Assistant: Katie Rowe [/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Ticket Prices and Concessions” tab_id=”1452941768731-94b426f3-57530201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f15c2c-1e63″][vc_column_text]\nTicket Prices:\nPreview: $35\nFull: $45\nConcession: $35\nGroup of 4: $42 each\nGroup of 8 or more: $35 each \nConcessions:\nPensioners/Full-time students/MEAA members \n  \nNO BOOKING FEE SURCHARGE[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Understandable as a defiant celebration of life\, resilience\, humour and absurdity\, Janno’s enduring preoccupations as an artist encompass ideas about compassion\, love and community as the sustaining principles of a kinder world. \nThe exhibition is an unapologetic\, wildly exaggerated\, absurdist conflagration of installation\, large- and small-scale paintings\, paper works\, textiles and hand-sewn soft sculptures with bold explosions of colour. Janno has also included the collaborative Corona Girl project with COVID-19 responses from participants around the globe\, sewn into the dress of the large-scale female figure\, representing togetherness in isolation. \nThis is a show unafraid to advocate for enduring humanist virtues. Love\, dignity\, compassion\, social justice and and the primacy of human happiness\, promise a gentler and less complicated way of being in the midst of a deeply strange\, post-truth moment in history. \n– Rose Lang[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Artist’s Bio” tab_id=”1518320329651-b769a1a3-29e6905c-b0b3368e-b9ef2edb-f0663f53-0933fa81-d37b”][vc_column_text]Janno Mclaughlin is an artist with a Masters in Contemporary Art from the Victoria College of the Arts\, the University of Melbourne. Her artwork speaks of a celebration of life with acknowledged threads of love\, loss\, hope\, optimism and resilience. Having spent most of her adult life living away from Australia between New York and Buenos Aires\, Janno’s artworks seek to sow hope\, bravery\, resilience and whimsy\, anchored by a deliberately ridiculous and unwavering sense of humour. \nHer approach is unapologetically bold with a preference for blazing colour and mixed media. Janno deploys paint\, thread and richly associative metaphors to portray the most vulnerable\, fragile and endangered in society. In her ten solo exhibitions worldwide\, Janno has explored the theme of outsider; the foreigner living in a non-English speaking world; the disenfranchised urban poor; and closer to home and as the mother of a child with autism\, the isolation of disability and need for safe spaces. \njannoart.com[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Exhibition Catalogue” tab_id=”1619510320430-6f29acb2-c2bb”][vc_column_text]CLICK HERE for the Making Nonsense exhibition catalogue.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]

It started as an experiment to use the printmaking technique of “Chine Colle” with Japanese Kozo rice paper on a non-paper surface.  Through the use of layers\, she explores the interconnection between people’s lives and events in the world. As Michigan-based artist Nathaniel Whitcomb declares\, “collage more closely mirrors reality than any other art form. To be alive is to construct\, to selectively choose from an infinitum of objects and ideas\, internalise\, then reassemble into a new whole\, a life. Living is collage”.

She was born in Hong Kong and moved to Australia in the late 1980s. Since graduating in Fine Art from the University of Melbourne – Victorian College of the Arts in 2008\, Margaret has been an artist in residence and teacher at Firestation Print Studio in Melbourne. \nMargaret creates copper etchings\, paintings/collages and artist books. The recurring motif “circle” in her work came from Margaret’s Indonesian and Chinese heritage. She explains\, \n“With all my work\, I am driven by the creative inspiration just as much as I thrive on the production process. Thinking through making\, my techniques continue to evolve because I need to challenge myself; by pushing my own boundaries as well as testing the potential and limitation of my medium and materials.” \nHer work has been the subject of three solo shows\, and is included in several group exhibitions\, international exchange projects\, private collection and museum collection including the NGV and the NGA. Margaret has won a few awards and has been recently short-listed in 2021 Northern Beaches Library Artist’s Book Award. She will be part of Impact 11 International Multi-disciplinary Printmaking conference to be held in April 2021.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Since this move\, Nel has enjoyed the possibilities of travelling internationally\, particularly throughout Europe\, seeking inspiration from different countries & cultures. She has been invited multiple times to take part as an artist in residence\, working alongside and collaborating with other artists worldwide. Whilst in Melbourne\, her work is focused on abstract landscape oil paintings in varied sizes. The greatest source of inspiration for her work\, has always been nature\, evoking emotions of freedom\, beauty & wonder.  \nNel has exhibited extensively in Australia\, Europe and the Middle East since the 1980s. She has been a finalist in the Broken Hill Art Prize\, Nillumbik Art Prize and Alice Art Prize\, and had participated in numerous residencies in Australia and Europe.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”A Pilgrim’s Progress” tab_id=”1615943883436-353c1e47-28e1″][vc_column_text]For the last 11 years I have been walking on different Pilgrim routes in Spain and Italy and covered about 4\,500 km. Walking through landscapes and villages\, listening to the progress of my own steps taken over stones or mud\, through riverbeds or over a beach. It is a very meditative experience. \nWhile walking one gets to see a lot of detail and I had time to take it all in. \nI have taken a lot of photos that I can use as reference and others that I use to transform on my iPad. \nWhile walking\, one often comes across abandoned clothes\, lost or discarded by their owners. These material items signal an absence from their former purpose\, assuming their own life and existence in the environment where they are left behind. The reasons for their abandonment are vast\, but meaningful. They can signify an array of meanings\, from loss\, absence\, relationships\, the past and presence. The act of discarding clothes sends a message and their existence affects both the spaces and people that inhabit them. \nAbandonment can only be understood when exploring the material existence of a garment and its relationship with the people\, objects or places it interacts with.

On the many travels I have undertaken during the past years\, I’ve become fascinated with the mysterious existence of abandoned clothes I come across on my journey. My curiosity for their former life\, the reason for their abandonment and the way in which they become immersed in the spaces they come to inherit. \nThe series Ropas Abandonadas is my expression of the discarded and lost clothes that cross my path on the pilgrimage trails I have covered throughout Europe\, especially Spain. There is a connection between the long and often desolate miles I cover on foot\, with the deserted clothing strewn across fences\, in riverbeds\, along the path or roadside I am travelling. \nMy work is composed using multiple layers of materials and methods. The process begins with taking photographs of the Ropas Abandonadas\, along my travels. I put several of these photos together with landscape photos. In this way I recreate on paper\, the original context of the abandoned clothes\, bringing together the material in relation to the natural environment. My aim is to create a continuation from the original context in which I found them and translating that through each stage of the creative process. I adapt the juxtaposed photographs using the program Procreate\, to create additional depth to the images and finish by detailing them through painting and drawing. This gives them the appearance of being submerged\, in the same way they are submerged by different layers of the elements in their original environment. Layering these creative stages evokes the mystery and message behind the past and present life of the abandoned clothing. \n– Nel ten Wolde\, 2021[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Travel is her great escape\, from the daily grind of earning a living\, to a world of places\, experiences and romantic atmospheres that bring joy to her soul. \nIn 2018 Sophie’s journey to Hong Kong was different and she needed some support. This time it was travelling to work. Finding an everyday life in a foreign environment where you have no established friends or local connections is not the romance of travel. It’s a little daunting. I found myself – for first of many times – on a plane to Hong Kong. \nHong Kong – China: One Country\, Two Systems: The Asian Century. An Asian mega-city\, an international finance hub sporting an array of architectural show pieces promoting various brand-egos. \nBut what made an impression on me and what led me to paint was – \nThe airport: An artificial island in the South China Sea has spectacular views of cloud covered Lantau Mountain and its form signals China. The mountain is guarded by rows of apartment towers lined up like soldiers. Imagining a life there sends a shudder down my spine. Look in the opposite direction\, beyond planes\, runways\, hangers\, terminals and you’ll see the sea and ubiquitous clouds\, haze\, ships and busy swarms of dredges. \nThe harbour: The water\, where ships come and go as they have\, ever since and even before the British freebooters\, thugs and drug runners stole it at gunpoint. Those same ships I saw from the airport\, all shapes\, sizes and ages\, but mainly the grimy\, ships of work and commerce\, old\, new\, big and little. \nWhat I found was\, I guess\, what was ever there: the gateway to southern China\, to trade and riches. \nA haze sits over it all: the tropical haze\, the industrial haze.

My work is a journey\, ever evolving with continuous growth.  I am blessed to share my stories and to evoke emotion through each and every piece.”   \nAliki K \nFree flowing\, spontaneous and driven by colour\, Aliki K draws inspiration from her love of fashion\, interior design and everyday beauty. \n“My artworks are inspired by the feel of Bohemian Summer\, freedom and frivolity… the flowers & leaves that emerge\, soft and vibrant colours combined together to create a sense of beauty.” \nBev Plowman \nIn this exhibition Bev Plowman is looking at mood\, light\, and the colour spectrum of nature. Use your mind to puzzle these soft\, mosaic like images into something recognisable\, Relax and unwind in the garden\, by the pond\, near the sea. \n“I enjoy creating artworks that are calm and relaxing. ‘Hybrid landscapes’ that feel familiar\, as if you’ve seen them before.” \nPlowman has also created many mosaic murals around Melbourne and won National and State awards for her work. \nJo Carroll \nJo Carroll’s abstract\, moody art captures the imagination of the viewer\, with serene colourscapes that invite you to pause\, reflect\, re-balance and energise. \nCarroll works by allowing herself to be guided by her own intuitive energy.  Clouds\, nebulae\, water and the glow of light being common themes in her work. \n“I love creating atmospheric and ethereal images\, taking the viewer into the painting to experience something transcendent and mystical – often beyond the world as we see it.” [/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Artist Bios” tab_id=”1518320329651-b769a1a3-29e6905c-b0b3368e-b9ef2edb-f0663f53-0933f0ae-7308″][vc_column_text]Joan Blond is an abstract expressionist and contemporary artist based in the Yarra Valley\, Victoria. She works from her home studio in Yellingbo and is creatively motivated by the location and the relaxed atmosphere it offers. Mostly self taught\, Joan’s creative side was nurtured by her Mother who constantly shared her love of drawing & painting. Joan loves painting generous blocks of colour her style is vibrantly expressionistic\, often incorporating energetic line work. Joan mostly paints using acrylics with substance\, which add texture to her work and loves experimenting with different mediums\, washes\, and at times works with oil paint. Joan also takes many cues from contemporary design and her love of interior design. She loves working with homeowners and designers looking for paintings with a custom colour scheme. \nJoan has had 4 solo exhibitions and had works included in numerous group shows in Australia. Joan’s paintings have been featured on the TV series\, The Block and are held by private collectors throughout Australia\, New Zealand\, USA\, Germany\, Singapore and recently Hong Kong. \njoanblondart.com\n@joanblond \n  \nAliki K is an Australian artist from Melbourne. Her style is free flowing\, colour driven and full of spontaneity. Other inspirations are through her love of fashion\, interiors and everyday beauty. Aliki was formally trained in Fashion Design\, receiving a BA Fashion at RMIT Melbourne. She has worked as a Product Designer and Buyer for many leading apparel brands. \nAliki has progressed from fashion\, to raising her young children\, and has naturally shifted her creativity to her art practice. \n@aliki.k \n  \nMelbourne artist Bev Plowman has always been involved in the arts as both a practicing artist and visual arts teacher for 20 years. In 2009 she started creating full time as a painter\, mosaic artist and sculptor. Plowman is inspired by the mood and light created by the impressionist painters\, with water\, ponds and the sea as primary themes that come through in her art. Plowman’s work experiments with making marks in paint\, mosaic\, or ceramics to convey a feeling. \nBev Plowman has created many mosaic murals around Melbourne and won National and State awards for her mosaic work. \nbevplowman.com\n@bevplowmanart \n  \nJo Carroll’s abstract\, moody art is borne out of her passion to create from nothing\, capturing the imagination of the viewer. Her serene colourscapes invite her viewers to pause\, reflect\, re balance and energise. Jo begins each artwork without a plan of composition\, simply allowing herself to be guided by her own intuitive energy with clouds\, nebulae\, water and the glow of light being common themes in her work. Jo’ s paintings are at once scenic\, atmospheric and ethereal\, taking the viewer into the painting to experience something transcendent and mystical. \nJo graduated from RMIT with a BA in Creative Advertising and has over 20 years of experience working in major advertising agencies on some of Australia’s top brands. She has also owned and run 2 small businesses and has a passion for helping startups succeed. \nSince having her third child\, Jo returned to her first creative love\, painting. “My earliest and fondest memories of childhood involve drawing and painting. It’s a strong part of my identity. I feel blessed to be at a stage in my life where I can paint full time and be part of a strong and successful community of artists.” \njocarroll.com.au\n@jo.t.carroll[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]

It is visceral\, physiological\, often beyond language. This performance is a shared re-presentation of the psychic chaos. \nAs she began to write\, past memories of assaults filled the page – a compilation of small and more significant violations by men\, woven into the fabric of her womanhood. These rememberings have also found expression in The Trauma Project\, arriving like postcards from an earlier existence\, calling for action. \nEngaging the body and her lived experience as a site for interrogating personal and cultural trauma\, this poetic non-linear work explores the schism of self\, the intrusive memories that characterise such overwhelming experience\, perspective\, and the politics of gendered violence. \nCreative development of The Trauma Project was supported by La Mama Explorations in 2017. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Cast and Creatives” tab_id=”1452941644640-19a0de81-e87a0201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f1b9a5-eceb”][vc_column_text]Writer/Director: Elizabeth Walley \nAssociate Director: Alec Gilbert \nPerformers: Ian Ferrington\, Isabella Gilbert\, Lauren Steiner\, Elizabeth Walley \nVisual Dramaturgy/Production Design: Dagmara Gieysztor \nChoreography: Isabella Gilbert \nSound Design: Samuel Kreusler and Rachel Lewindon \nLighting Design: David Silvester \nStage Manager: Dylan Lines \nAssistant Stage Manager: Cosima Gilbert \nPublicity: Cameron Lukey[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Ticket Prices and Concessions” tab_id=”1452941768731-94b426f3-57530201-342dcb0a-2ec9a177-581a2513-a5c51f1f-8993a3c4-5ca5cb85-3d54189f-4d6f8ba6-b9f1b9a5-eceb”][vc_column_text]\nTicket Prices:\nPreview: $30\nFull: $45\nConcession: $35\nGroup 6+: $35 \nLivestream at home: $25 (one performance only on Saturday 27 March) \nConcessions:\nPensioners/Full-time students/MEAA members/JobKeeper & JobSeeker recipients \n  \nNO BOOKING FEE SURCHARGE[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Livestream” tab_id=”1615252515361-b4938f26-0853″][vc_column_text]Saturday 27 March\, 7.30pm AEDT (one show only!) \nYour Zoom registration link to access the live-streamed performance will be included in a pre-event email\, sent from one day before the event.\n\nPlease note: If you are unable to watch the live-streamed performance on the night\, you will be able to gain access to the recording of the livestream a few days after the event.
