Dr. Elliot Engel returns to Piedmont Arts with the lecture, “Blackbeard! Pirate Enemy Number One,” on Thursday, Oct. 2.
Many know that Blackbeard has one of the most fearsome reputations of any pirate in history. What is not always known is the astonishing story of how Edward Teach, a quiet and educated man, transformed himself into this infamous pirate and became known as the “Scourge of the High Seas.” Engel will provide the background, context and hair-raising details of Teach’s transformation into Blackbeard.
Engel lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he has taught at NC State University, the University of North Carolina and Duke University. He earned an M.A. and Ph.D. from UCLA and was awarded that university's Outstanding Teacher Award. He has written ten books published in England, Japan, Turkey and the United States. His mini-lecture series on Charles Dickens aired on PBS stations nationwide. His articles have appeared in numerous newspapers and national magazines. He has lectured throughout the United States and on all the continents, including Antarctica. He was inducted into the Royal Society of Arts in England in 2009 for his academic work and service in promoting Charles Dickens.

There’s no better way to lift your spirits than with the music of the season delivered in full sound and spectacle by the Roanoke Symphony Orchestra. David Stewart Wiley conducts the Holiday Pops with all the magical elements you have come to expect — high energy, familiar carols and lots of holiday warmth. Guest soloist Michael Lynche from American Idol will join the symphony for this special performance.
Featuring guest soloist Michael Lynche. Lynche is a new breed of soul singer with completely classic influences. Traces of Donny Hathaway, Al Green, Luther Vandross, Sam Cooke and James Brown all seem to flash in this uniquely talented performer. Undeniable charisma, well-crafted song arrangements and a voice soaked in soul give the big man class all his own. “Big Mike” — as he was known while winning over the hearts of a nation during his stint on American Idol — has talent so versatile, he’s played intimate jazz and blues clubs, 20,000 seat arenas, and opera halls with 100-piece orchestras backing him. Through it all “Big Mike” has always had one singular goal: to spread a message of love wherever he goes.
