2016/17 2016/17 Our Impact p. 5 Our Programs & Festivals p. 35 Our Friends & Finances p. 51 Crowds outside the David H. Koch Theater, where three of the most revered ballet companies in the world—the Bolshoi Ballet, New York City Ballet, and Paris Opera Ballet—celebrated the 50th anniversary of George Balanchine’s Jewels with an unprecedented joint performance. Dear Friends: It has been an important year for the arts and for Lincoln Center. We are living through a moment when discord seems far more common than harmony, and when one of the few things that people across the political spectrum can agree on is that our opportunities to agree have become more fraught and less frequent. Art, however, is the one lasting endeavor that allows us to transcend our differences to discover universal channels of communication, understanding, and joy. It is no surprise that through the arts, we can find our way closer to harmony. The way that art triumphs is the same way that people triumph: in the spirit of togetherness. Lincoln Center has wholly embraced that spirit over the past 12 months—from bringing together three of the world’s leading ballet companies to share the stage for the historic 50th anniversary of George Balanchine’s Jewels to our legal team working fastidiously to secure visas for the actors of While I Was Waiting, a play conceived and set in Syria. Both took place during this summer’s Lincoln Center Festival, which poignantly presents “art that knows no borders.” This is the positive momentum that we are seizing upon now to build a strategy for the future of Lincoln Center, which has been going especially strong since welcoming a new president in March. This undertaking has been particularly fortuitous thanks to all of the magnificent support that immediately poured in—from our own campus and Board to supportive New Yorkers and arts lovers worldwide—and continues to humble us as we chart our way forward. Our goals looking ahead are inspired by our successes in the past year. They include expanding our accessibility for people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds through means as diverse as building upon our youth engagement programs to growing our digital outreach with both new technology and our increasing social media presence. It also means continuing to rally all 11 organizations on our campus to stand together as a unified Lincoln Center: a true leader in the performing arts in every sense of the word. This may sound ambitious, but looking at what we have already done in these past 12 months, there is no reason to think we can’t accomplish everything we set out to do—in the spirit of togetherness, in pursuit of harmony, and through the power of the arts. Sincerely, Katherine Farley Debora L. Spar Conductor Louis Langrée leads the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra Chair President in one of its spirited summer programs. 3 Our Impact The Young People’s Chorus of New York City joined the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra, conductor Louis Langrée, and host Bernadette Peters for an inspiring opening to the 2017 Mostly Mozart Festival. 5 New Leadership On March 15, 2017, Lincoln Center welcomed Debora Spar as its 10th president. On November 16, 2016, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts Board Chair Katherine Farley announced the selection of Debora L. Spar as the institution’s next president. Of the former president of Barnard College and Harvard Business School professor, Ms. Farley said: “Debora’s vision and experience in the arts, education, and business make her the ideal choice to lead Lincoln Center at this exciting time.” Lincoln Center welcomed Ms. Spar on March 15, 2017. 6 7 Arts for a New Generation During the 2016–17 season, over 24,000 people experienced world-class family programming with LC Kids.

A conflict, which had begun to appear between the compose r's natura l, but advanced expression, and the Soviet official sanction came to a climax in 1934 wh en he produced his "avant guarde" opera Lady Ma cbeth of Mzensk. He was accuse d of "deliberate musical affectation " and of writing "un Soviet, eccent ric music, founded upon formalistic ideas of bourge ois musical conce ptions." Responding to this official castigation, he wrote a se ries of short, neoclassic, understated works, typical of the Fi ve Pieces on tonight's program.

    Prefaces to Scalia/Ginsburg: a (Gentle) Parody of Operatic Proportions

    WANG, SCALIA/GINSBURG: A (GENTLE) PARODY OF OPERATIC PROPORTIONS, 38 COLUM. J.L. & ARTS 237 (2015) Prefaces to Scalia/Ginsburg: A (Gentle) Parody of Operatic Proportions Preface by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Scalia/Ginsburg is for me a dream come true. If I could choose the talent I would most like to have, it would be a glorious voice. I would be a great diva, perhaps Renata Tebaldi or Beverly Sills or, in the mezzo range, Marilyn Horne. But my grade school music teacher, with brutal honesty, rated me a sparrow, not a robin. I was told to mouth the words, never to sing them. Even so, I grew up with a passion for opera, though I sing only in the shower, and in my dreams. One fine day, a young composer, librettist and pianist named Derrick Wang approached Justice Scalia and me with a request. While studying Constitutional Law at the University of Maryland Law School, Wang had an operatic idea. The different perspectives of Justices Scalia and Ginsburg on constitutional interpretation, he thought, could be portrayed in song. Wang put his idea to the “will it write” test. He composed a comic opera with an important message brought out in the final duet, “We are different, we are one”—one in our reverence for the Constitution, the U.S. judiciary and the Court on which we serve. Would we listen to some excerpts from the opera, Wang asked, and then tell him whether we thought his work worthy of pursuit and performance? Good readers, as you leaf through the libretto, check some of the many footnotes disclosing Wang’s sources, and imagine me a dazzling diva, I think you will understand why, in answer to Wang’s question, I just said “Yes.” Preface by Justice Antonin Scalia: While Justice Ginsburg is confident that she has achieved her highest and best use as a Supreme Justice, I, alas, have the nagging doubt that I could have been a contendah—for a divus, or whatever a male diva is called.

Middlesex County Assistant Prosecutor Christopher Kuberiet described the June 25 attack on Divyendu Sinha as a "wilding spree for no apparent purpose" during a hearing in September that led to the five teens being charged as adults, according to a report in the Star-Ledger. The Star-Ledger obtained audio recordings of four of five closed family court hearings. Click here to listen. Julian Daley, 16, Christian Tinli, who turned 18 in September, Cash Johnson, 17, Christopher Conway, 17, and Steven Contreras, 17, are accused of the attack on Sinha as he walked with his family in his Old Bridge neighborhood. Sinha, 49, worked at CSI as an assistant professor in the computer science department from 1990 to 1999. Kuberiet said authorities obtained time-stamped messages between the alleged assailants sent within an hour of the fatal attack, saying how much they enjoyed the assault, and discussing another similar attack the next day, the Star-Ledger reported.
