Photograph: Gerald Milnes, Augusta Heritage Center Awards were made through 19 different programs listed in the report. In addition to grants to organizations, Endowment funds also go to individuals through fellowships and to public arts agencies and arts service organizations, sometimes in the form of cooperative agreements. Grant money authorized by Congress comes to the Endowment as Program Funds, Treasury Funds and Challenge Grant Funds. Most direct grants to organizations and individuals come from Program Funds. Most grants to organizations must be matched at least dollar-for-dollar with funds from other sources. Grants to individuals do not require matching funds. Treasury Fund grants, awards designed to help applicants increase or sustain non-Federal contributions, generally must be matched with at least three non-Federal dollars for each Federal dollar. All awards using Treasury Funds are marked TF in this report. Because applicants must certify the match before Treasury Funds are released, each year a few grants are awarded but not obligated. All of the carry-over obligations from previous years are listed at the end of each category. The Treasury Fund grants that were awarded during Fiscal Year 1994, but not released, are marked with a dagger (~). Challenge Grant Funds must be matched at least three-to-one. We list both the amounts awarded and the amounts obligated during Fiscal Year 1994. The Dance Program is committed to advancing high quality dance artistry which cuts across a broad spectrum of aesthetic and cultural perspectives. The Program’s mission is to assist dance artists of national or regional significance to make, produce and transmit their work, and to foster a climate of support and public appreciation for dance. 201 AWARDS FY1 994 OBLIGATIONS $7,238,593 PRIOR YEAR OBLIGATIONS $400,000 COMFORT, JANE C.

Coverscaping: Discovering Album Aesthetics. Museum Tusculanum Press. 2 Abstract The Pomegranate Cycle is a practice-led enquiry consisting of a creative work and an exegesis. This project investigates the potential of self-directed, technologically mediated composition as a means of reconfiguring gender stereotypes within the operatic tradition. This practice confronts two primary stereotypes: the positioning of female performing bodies within narratives of violence and the absence of women from authorial roles that construct and regulate the operatic tradition. The Pomegranate Cycle redresses these stereotypes by presenting a new narrative trajectory of healing for its central character, and by placing the singer inside the role of composer and producer. During the twentieth and early twenty-first century, operatic and classical music institutions have resisted incorporating works of living composers into their repertory.

As an independent Federal agency, the NEA celebrates the arts as a national priority, critical to America’s future. More than anything, the arts provide a space for us to create and express. Through grants given to thousands of non-profits each year, the NEA helps people in communities across America experience the arts and exercise their creativity. From visual arts to digital arts, opera to jazz, film to literature, theater to dance, to folk and traditional arts, healing arts to arts education, the NEA supports a broad range of America’s artistic expression. Throughout the last 50 years, the NEA has made a significant contribution to art and culture in America. The NEA has made over 147,000 grants totaling more than $5 billion dollars, leveraging up to ten times that amount through private philanthropies and local municipalities. The NEA further extends its work through partnerships with state arts agencies, regional arts organizations, local leaders, and other Federal agencies, reaching rural, suburban, and metropolitan areas in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, special jurisdictions, and military installations.

Their Cymbeline, directed by Mark Lamos (who later moved to opera), ended with an unforgettable scene between Imogen and her husband: “Why did you throw your wedded lady from you? Think that you are upon a rock and throw me again.” His reply, “Hang there like fruit, my soul, till the tree die.” This exchange touched me deeply and really convinced me to try some music for the songs that appear in the play as well as this beautiful expression of love. I noticed the familiar “Hark, hark the lark” was sung by the frightful Cloten.
