  • Keeril Makan Either/Or
    Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2014-15 | 26th Season Composer Portraits Keeril Makan Either/Or Friday, December 5, 8:00 p.m. From the Executive Director It’s hard to believe that it’s December, and time for the final performances of 2014! These past few months have been an amazing time at Miller Theatre. We started the season strong with a sold-out Opening Night featuring eighth blackbird, where we were joined by more than 275 student audience members—many experiencing their first new-music performance. Next, we welcomed over 375 community members to Miller for a week of lantern- making workshops during the third annual Morningside Lights, and over 1,000 people joined us for the illuminated procession through Morningside Park. Morningside Lights has fast become a beloved neighborhood tradition, and it’s just one of the ways that Miller is committed to sharing the arts with our community. Last year, almost 700 people joined us for free Pop-Up Concerts, enjoying new music and complimentary drinks. This spring, Pop-Up Concerts are back, with four new performances just announced today! Tonight, you’ll hear the world premiere performance of Keeril Makan’s newest work, one of more than 40 world premieres that Miller Theatre has presented in the last five seasons. We make it a priority to expand the contemporary repertoire by commissioning new works as often as we can. During my tenure, it’s been an honor to commission 11 composers and two visual artists: nine for Composer Portraits, two for the Early Music series, and two site-specific murals for the Miller Theatre lobby.

Conducted by Michael Adelson, featuring soprano Lucy Shelton, and co-hosted by Young Composers Advocate Jon Deak and New York Philharmonic Vice President, Education, Theodore Wiprud, the concert will showcase the breadth and depth of music created by these New York City–area elementary and middle school students. The concert presents music by elementary, middle school, high school, and Teaching Artist composers participating in the Philharmonic’s extensive education programs. The program will include works by middle-school student Milo Poniewozik (United States, b. 2001), who was featured on NPR for his composition The Globetrotter, which the New York Philharmonic performed at a School Day Concert in May 2012; Daniel Acosta (Venezuela, b. 2003), a member of the Jóvenes Compositores de Venezuela, a VYC-inspired program associated with Venezuela’s El Sistema youth orchestra network; Farah Taslima (Bangladesh, b.

He writes music for the concert stage, electronic music, music for robotic instruments, as well as music for video, theater, and dance. Described as “gripping” and “engrossing” by the New York Times, Brook’s compositions have been performed around the world by ensembles and soloists such as the Nouvel Ensemble Moderne, Quatuor Bozzini, JACK Quartet, Mivos Quartet, Talea Ensemble, Ensemble Ascolta, and others. He has won numerous SOCAN Young Composers awards, including two first-place prizes and the grand prize in 2016 for Song, for solo cello. Brook studied composition with Brian Cherney in Montreal, Luc Brewaeys in Brussels, and George Lewis and Georg Haas in New York. In 2008, he studied Hindustani music and performance with Pandit Debashish Bhattacharya in Kolkata. His music is often concerned with finely tuned microtonal sonorities, combining his interest in exploring the perceptual qualities of sound with a unique sense of beauty and form. Brook holds a master’s degree in music composition from McGill University. He currently lives in New York, where he recently completed a DMA in music composition at Columbia University May 2018, with Fred Lerdahl. Brook is currently on faculty at Columbia University as a Core Lecturer. Brook is the technical director of TAK ensemble.

    Implications of Infinity: Richard Carrick’s Flow Cycle George E. Lewis The Flow Cycle found its genesis in Richard Carrick’s summer sojourn in Tanzania. “I spent the whole summer writing all this music that had no relationship to anything else,” Carrick recalled, “and at the end of it I realized, well, they’re all related to each other, but I wasn’t seeing them that way. I was seeing them as the beginnings of pieces, and thinking about structure and thinking about all these big things, but I wasn’t seeing what was actually in front of me. So I decided to drop that and that’s when the Flow Cycle came in—the flow concept came in—this idea that all of these seemingly disparate ideas could be put through a funnel that would somehow coherently lead the audience through all of these different paths.”1 The concepts of “flow” and “optimal experience” were identified in the 1970s by the psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi as connoting a complex yet manageable and actively self- produced equilibrium among skills, goals, awareness, and feedback. An experience of flow, according to Csikszentmihalyi, produces a sense that one’s skills are adequate to cope with the challenges at hand, in a goal- directed, rule-bound action system that provides clear cues as to how well one is performing. Concentration is so intense that there is no attention left over to think about anything irrelevant, or to worry about problems. Self-consciousness disappears, and the sense of time becomes distorted. An activity that produces such experiences is so gratifying that people

    Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2013-14 | 25th Anniversary Season Composer Portraits Anna Thorvaldsdottir Either/Or Zeena Parkins, harp David Shively, percussion Richard Carrick, conductor Thursday, December 5, 8:00 p.m. From the Executive Director Dear Friends, Our 25th Anniversary Season is off to an amazing start! Already, we’ve presented four concerts of John Zorn’s music over the course of five days; hosted three free Pop-Up Concerts onstage here at Miller; and premiered 125 new works inspired by John Cage’s “Party Pieces.” And there are many more incredible programs to come this spring, from a two-night percussion extravaganza featuring Steven Schick to a powerhouse program curated by Steve Reich, pairing his Tehillim with Bach’s Christ lag in Todes Banden. You may not realize that Miller Theatre relies on the financial support of friends like you to make these performances possible. Ticket sales cover only a small portion of our costs; without donations from audience members like you, we simply couldn’t continue to produce the performances you know and love. If you value what we do, I urge you to show your support by making a donation. You can make your gift tonight by returning the enclosed envelope to the table in the lobby, or by visiting us online at www.millertheatre.com/support. Your contribution will go directly towards funding our performances, and I can promise you that it will make a difference. Thank you for making Miller Theatre a part of your year-end giving plans. Warm wishes to you and yours this holiday season.
