SERIES CONCERTS Lully, Lulla: Christmas with TENET Claudio Monteverdi’S Selva Morale E Spirituale Gombert & Poulenc 10 Dear Friends and Supporters, We made it to 10 years! And what a decade it’s been. These pages commemorate a decade of artistic activities for TENET Vocal Artists. They represent a wealth of time, talent, and love spent bringing high quality vocal music to the people of New York City and beyond. There were too many fond memories to include here, but this gives you a taste of our efforts as we look forward to the next 10 years. We began as TENET in the fall of 2009 when I was named artistic director. Born of a desire “to hold on” to something “we believe in” (definitions of tenet), I focused my efforts on project-based programming of early music and I brought the Green Mountain Project into the organization’s fold. Ensemble highlights (2009–2019): • 225+ musicians • 200+ concerts • 6 recordings • glowing reviews from major publications • 15x budget increase • prestigious foundation awards • local, state, and national government arts grants When asked how TENET has achieved its success, I talk about our community. Many friends serve on TENET’s board of directors and board of advisors. Fans who donate and purchase concert tickets. Church leaders allow us to perform in their sacred spaces. Volunteers usher, and host artists and host house concerts. Collaborating ensembles take risks with us. Videographers, audio engineers, photographers, bankers, insurance agents, bookkeepers, wine sellers, administrators, grant writers, media specialists and reviewers, website builders, ticket vendors, taxi drivers. Together, our work touches many lives in this great city. Most of all, I attribute TENET Vocal Artists’ success to the talented musicians who have dedicated their lives to creating music with the hope of making the world a more joyous place. Choosing a life as a performer comes with great challenges and sacrifices that are often unrelated to musical talents. Every person you see on our stage has an interesting story to tell that enriches our performances. I hope to continue honoring their work, and I hope you will join me by staying present as we continue our journey. Here’s to 10 more years, JOLLE GREENLEAF, Artistic Director SERIES CONCERTS Lully, Lulla: Christmas with TENET Claudio Monteverdi’s Selva Morale e Spirituale Gombert & Poulenc 010 PRESENTERS Beacon Hill Series 2 Rockefeller University St. Thomas Fifth Avenue PERFORMERS Philip Anderson* Ryland Angel* Jesse Blumberg Joe Chappel* 009- Benjamin Charmot Hai-Ting Chinn* 2 Jolle Greenleaf * Hank Heijink* Steven Hrycelak Robert Isaacs Marc Molomot* Johanna Novom Molly Quinn* Mark Risinger* Kirsten Sollek* Avi Stein* Daniel Swenberg David Vanderwal* Virginia Warnken THE INAUGURAL SEASON INAUGURAL THE Geoffrey Williams * Pictured to the right SERIES CONCERTS Mit Glanz und Gloria: In Grand Style Candlelight Carols Tributes and Elegies Spanish Renacimiento COLLABORATORS New York Polyphony* John Scott* Spiritus Collective PRESENTERS Church of St. Barnabas, Greenwich Columbia University 2010-2011 Costa Rica International Music Festival Gotham Early Music Scene Miller Theater Rockefeller University THE SECOND SEASON SECOND THE PERFORMERS Dongmyung Ahn Scott Metcalfe Philip Anderson* Marc Molomot* Julie Andrijeski Craig Phillips* Ryland Angel Molly Quinn* Jesse Blumberg Mack Ramsey Mischa Bouvier* Erik Schmalz Luthien Brackett* Kirsten Sollek* Wesley Chinn Avi Stein Daniel Elyar Kiri Tollaksen Charles Wesley Evans* Anne Trout Steven Fox* David Vanderwal * Jolle Greenleaf * Emily Walhout Hank Heijink Virginia Warnken* Steven Hrycelak* Geoffrey Williams* Greg Ingles Alexander Woods James Kennerley Tom Zajac Kris Kwapis Daniel Lee * Pictured on pages 4–5 Thomas McCargar SERIES CONCERTS ODES: A tradition to celebrate St. Cecilia Christmas Mystery, Christmas Fantasy Green Mountain Project: Claudio Monteverdi’s Vespers circa 1640 Un Petrarchino cantato Gabrielli @ 400 UNO + ONE: Italia Nostra PRESENTERS Ancram Opera House Church of St. Barnabas, Greenwich Five Boroughs Music Festival Gotham Early Music Scene Met Live Arts Metropolis Ensemble Pequot Library Trinity Wall Street COLLABORATORS Clarion Music Society Dark Horse Consort Metropolis Ensemble 2011-2012 SEASON THIRD THE New York Polyphony PERFORMERS Philip Anderson Aaron Sheehan Julie Andrijeski* Kirsten Sollek Ryland Angel Michael Sponseller Jesse Blumberg* Avi Stein* Mischa Bouvier Daniel Swenberg* Luthien Brackett* Sumner Thompson* Sarah Cunningham Kiri Tollaksen* Daniel Elyar Anne Trout Charles Wesley Evans* David Vanderwal Karina Fox Emily Walhout* Steven Fox* Virginia Warnken* Jolle Greenleaf * Kenneth Weiss Hank Heijink* Zachary Wilder* Christopher Dylan Herbert* Geoffrey Williams* Grant Herreid Steven Caldicott Wilson* Steven Hrycelak Alexander Woods Greg Ingles* * Pictured on pages 6–7 Silvie Jensen James Kennerley Kris Kwapis Daniel Lee Liza Malamut* Thomas McCargar* David McFerrin* Jason McStoots* Robert Mealy Scott Mello* Scott Metcalfe* Marc Molomot* Debra Nagy Alexandra Opsahl* Craig Phillips* Molly Quinn* Mack Ramsey* Jason Rylander* Erik Schmalz* Ezra Seltzer SERIES CONCERTS Claudio Monteverdi’s Madrigals of Love and War TENET Christmas: Starry Night Green Mountain Project: Claudio Monteverdi’s Vespers of 1610 TENEbrae: Buxtehude: Membra Jesu Nostri Couperin: Leçons de Ténèbres Tallis: Lamentations Gesualdo: Tenebrae Responsories for Maundy Thursday Charpentier: Leçons de Ténèbres pour Vendredi Victoria: Lamentations of Jeremiah COLLABORATORS Grace Choral Society Trinity Wall Street PRESENTERS Ancram Opera House Beacon Hill Series Berskhire Bach Festival Costa Rica International Music Festival Grace Choral Society Music at Gordon College Music at St. Peter’s Church, Savannah Rutgers University Trinity Wall Street Tri-Noon Recitals University Club of New York 2012-2013 SEASON FOURTH THE PERFORMERS Dongmyung Ahn Owen McIntosh* Christopher Ainsley Jason McStoots* Philip Anderson* Robert Mealy* Matthew Anderson Scott Metcalfe* Julie Andrijeski Marc Molomot Ryland Angel Nils Neubert* Melissa Attebury Johanna Novom Jesse Blumberg Alex Opsahl Mischa Bouvier* Molly Quinn* Luthien Brackett* Mack Ramsey Kelvin Chan Kurt Owen Richards Martha Cluver Melanie Russell Dann Coakwell Stephen Sands Scott Dispensa Erik Schmalz Eric Dudley Ezra Seltzer Daniel Elyar Aaron Sheehan* Charles Wesley Evans* Geoffrey Silver Patrick Fennig Kirsten Sollek Jolle Greenleaf * Avi Stein* Hank Heijink* Daniel Swenberg* Laurie Heimes Lisa Terry* Matthew Hensrud Sumner Thompson* Christopher Dylan Herbert Kiri Tollaksen Tim Hodges Anne Trout Jacqui Horner Julian Wachner Steve Hrycelak* Emily Walhout Mellissa Hughes David Walker * Motomi Igarashi Virginia Warnken * Greg Ingles Charles Weaver Linda Jones Kenneth Weiss James Kennerley Zachary Wilder Marguerite Krull Alexander Woods * Sara Lackie Jonathan Woody Daniel S.

  • For Most Musicians, Building and Maintaining a Career Substantial
    For most musicians, building and maintaining a career substantial enough to last two decades would be an accomplishment worthy of recognition and deserving of celebration. However, while we celebrate Chatham Baroque’s 20 years of excellence, we do so fully understanding that for this group – rightly described as “one of Pittsburgh’s greatest treasures” – time has a different relevance. Today, they mark the grand finale of their 20th season with the Pittsburgh premiere of J.S. Bach’s 1725 St. John Passion. Like much of what Chatham Baroque does, this piece is not well known to modern audiences. Like much of what they have been doing for two decades, they will interpret this music from the 18th century with period instruments and somehow make it relevant to 21st century listeners. That is who they are and that is what they do. At UPMC Health Plan we have always taken seriously our responsibility to help our members enjoy the best quality of life possible. That is why we support Chatham Baroque, a true civic institution that has consistently shown us that quality is not only a priceless commodity, but a timeless one, too. Diane P.

  • Celebrations from the Mediterranean New York Polyphony
    Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2014-15 | 26th Season Early Music Celebrations from the Mediterranean New York Polyphony Saturday, November 15, 8:00 p.m. Church of St. Mary the Virgin From the Executive Director This November at Miller is all about vitality. Cyrus Chestnut is an absolute genius on the piano. I’ve heard him perform at Miller for many years now—long before I became Executive Director—and it’s always a special thrill to hear his stunning improvisations and unique style on our Steinway and in our hall, where each flourish sings. It’s also an absolute joy to welcome Anthony Roth Costanzo to our stage for the first time. The stars aligned to make this Composer Portrait possible: Bernard Rands was completing a new work, ICE expressed great interest in working with him, and Mr. Costanzo had an opening in his schedule—this concert could not have come together more perfectly. New York Polyphony returns with a program to brighten the winter, featuring luxurious works from the Spanish Renaissance. It’s been an ongoing delight to work with this ensemble and to see the acclaim that they’ve garnered since their Miller Theatre debut in 2010. Last year, we commissioned a new piece for them, a work by composer Andrew Smith titled Nowell: Arise and Wake. They premiered it at a snowy concert presented by Miller last December, and the piece is now being highlighted on their album, Sing thee Nowell. I feel lucky to follow the accomplishments of the talented musicians we work with here, and if you’ve been coming to Miller over the years, you may feel the same way.
