Thousands of people have felt the spirit of this glorious music during the Sounds of Praise Gospel Brunch, which are held on select Sundays at BAMcafe. Last year, gospel legend Donnie McClurkin brought down the house at BAM's annual tribute to Dr. Marti n Luther King Jr. "' But come February 1, this inspi rational ~ \ music will take centerstage inside the ~ ' Howard Gilman Opera House, when ~ BAM presents Praise Music, the second ~ concert in its new Rhythm & BAM "'- series. (The first, featuring R&B legend ~ Bobby "Blue" Bland and up-and-coming ~ star Cody ChesnuTT, takes place on :.: January 18.) Filling the stage that evening will be a cast of dozens: Gary Anglin and the Christian Cultural Center Choir, Grammy­ nominee Kim Burrell, and Reverend Timothy White and the Grace Tabernacle Choir. Bishop Sam Williams of radio station WBLS will host the event. This event is an official part of NY GRAMMY Fest 2003 and is sponsored by Independence Community Foundation. The Rhythm & BAM series is an outgrowth of ten years of free concerts presented at nearby Metro Tech Center. "We had such success with those concerts, we wanted to move them indoors," says Joseph V. Mel illo, BAM's executive producer. "More importantly, this series is the beginning of a long-term comm itment to examine the extraordinary contribution that Africa n-Americans have made to American culture through music . "When I arrived at BAM, I looked at all of our initiatives, and I noticed music was not as well represented," adds Melillo. "We have a very culturally diverse audience here. Artistically, Rhythm and Blues and Gospel was where I landed ." In many ways, the choice of a Gospel concert to help inaugurate the series was a natural one. "From doing these brunches, we have learned a tremendous amount about this music, most notably that Gospel is not a monolothic term . It has many different types of expression," says Melillo. "So we decided to move in the direction of producing a large-scale gospel concert." To help complete this task, Melillo turned to two important ind ividuals with their own long-term commitments to BAM. The show's director, Abdel R. Salaam, is the artistic director of Forces of Nature, a dance company that has performed as part of BAM's annual DanceAfrica Festival. (This year's event wi ll be held May 23-25). To select the performers, Melillo tapped BAM music curator Limor Tomer. "I wanted to present the best artists from Sounds of Praise in a larger context, and in selecting Gary Angli n and the Reverend White's groups, I felt we chose two choi rs that were truly extraordinary," says Tomer. "And I am thrilled we've been able to add a wonderful guest soloist, Kim Burrell." The performers bel ieve the ti ming of this concert couldn't be better-even if there turns out to be a 6 foot of snow on the ground. "People need inspiration when times get tough," says Reverend Wright. "During difficult times, which we are facing, people turn to their faith- and our music is about faith. It's fascinating that since September 11th, Gospel music is one of the few categories where record sales have actually increased." Being on a BAM stage is nothing new for Reverend Wright; he first performed here in the 1970s. For Praise Music, he plans to choose selections from his entire repertoire, which means "a little bit of traditional gospel, a little bit of contemporary gospel, and a little bit of urban gospel," he says. Moreover, any chance he gets to spread the word to Brooklyn- and about Brooklyn- is fine by him. "Sometimes, Brooklyn gets overlooked in the notoriety of Manhattan. But there is a lot of talent in Brooklyn," says Wright, who will be joined onstage by more than 25 choir members and musicians. This concert will offer some particular benefits to Gary Anglin. "I am very excited about having all these people together on one stage. I have never gotten to be on the same bill as Reverend Wright," he notes. "I am also looking forward to presenting some new material, from my latest CD, to the audience." But CD sales or meeting other performers are merely bonuses, stresses Anglin. This concert is an important element in fulfilling his overall mission. "Our purpose in coming here is the same purpose we have wherever we minister, whether it's in New York or Vienna. Our purpose is to glorify G-d and to spread hope," says Anglin. "And we know there are people who may never go to church, but they will come to a concert." In addition to being the editor of ENCORE/BAMbi//, Brian Scott Lipton contributes frequently to many national and local publications, including Forbes, The New York Post, and W, on topics such as performing arts, fashion, and cuisine. He is also an adjunct professor at the Metropolitan College of New York. · 7 Treasured Island By Diane Snyder The last time that black South African actors John Kani and Winston Ntshona performed The Island in New York, they took home a joint Tony Award for 1975's Best Actor in a Play. A year later, they were arrested back home after a performance of the play Sizwe Bansi Is Dead, charged with treason and locked up for a few weeks-until pressure and protests from around the globe helped get them released. Their international tour of those two works- which they co-authored with Athol Fugard, the great white South African playwright- let them savor freedom away from South Africa when it was still in the throes of apartheid. Yet, they chose to return to their homeland, despite the oppressive regime, and fight for change. Neither Kani nor Ntshona recall being concerned about the potential danger. "There was some­ thing bigger calling than just the taste of freedom outside," says Ntshona, speaking by phone from his home in Port Elizabeth. "We were committed to the struggle at home, to black people who were disadvantaged completely, to social change to benefit everybody." Thankfully, South Africa has been completely rebuilt since apartheid was repealed twelve yea rs ago. So when the pair brings The Island to New York this time, it is without fear of retribution back home. The production- which Kani and Ntshona re-staged with director Peter Brook's input at his Paris theater in 1999-runs at BAM's Harvey Theater from April 1-13, made possible by special support from The Feinberg Foundation , Inc. Set in the Robben Island penitentiary, a maximum-security facil ity that once held political prisoners like Nelson Mandela, the play unfolds around two cel lmates, named for the actors, who sport matching shaven heads, khaki shirts and short pants. Although faced daily with backbreaking work and brutal treatment from jailers, their companionship helps them cope with their dehumanizing life behind bars.

  • The Artist and the Vote Event Program
    Public Conversation: The Artist and the Vote November 1, 2020 | 7:00PM Held online via Zoom HB Studio presents Public Conversation: The Artist and the Vote An international panel of artists discuss the boundaries and intersections between a creative, civic, and political life November 1, 2020 7:00 PM Moderated by David Deblinger Featuring: Snezhana Chernova Magaly Colimon-Christopher John-Martin Green Leyla Hadi Peter Francis James Abhishek Jha Juan Ramirez, Jr. Lorraine de Silva Edith Meeks, Executive & Artistic Director Lauren Ritter, Production Manager Lorraine de Silva, Zoom Tech This program is supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, and many generous supporters. Dear Friends, With so much tension around the U.S. election and so much at stake, we thought we'd bring some creative people together—a mix of American and international artists of different generations—to talk about what it means to have a voice as an artist, and how that relates to the act of voting. What are the boundaries and intersections between a creative life, a civic life, and a political life, and how do different artists from different places experience that? It seems important at this moment to acknowledge that our experiences around being heard, around being counted, are not the same. How does that affect the art we make, and the lines we draw, if we draw them, between what is art and what is not? Thank you for joining this group of HB teaching artists, students and friends for this conversation.

    E AFRICA FUME E AFRICA FUME YEA A QUARTER CENTURY SUPPORTING FREEDOM v v v HONOREES WALTER SISULU was elected Deputy President of the African National Congress at its July 1991 conference. He has been Nelson Mandela's closest political associate for over thirty years. Before they were both imprisoned on Robben Island, he was the ANC's General Secretary, known as the "Lion of the ANC" for his courage and determination. Since his release from prison Sisulu has been centrally engaged in re-organizing the ANC inside the country. A LBERTINA SISULU was elected Deputy President of the African National Congress Women's League at its first national conference in April 1991. She joined the ANC Women's League in the early 1940's and participated in dozens of protests, including the 1958 burning of pass books. After the ANC was banned in 1960, Mrs. Sisulu was subjected to 18 years of tough government restriction orders. Nevertheless she remained a key activist and was elected one of three co- presidents of the United Democratic Front in 1984. THE AFRICA FUND has stood close to the heart of the struggle for freedom and justice in southern Africa for the past quarter century. It has worked closely with virtually every independence leader from Julius Nyerere of Tanzania and Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe to Walter Sisulu and Nelson Mandela. The Africa Fund has crusaded to free political prisoners, spearheaded the drive to impose sanctions against apartheid, and mobilized the conscience of America on behalf of the oppressed peoples of southern Africa.

  • National Shakespeare Competition 2013 30Th Season
    National Shakespeare Competition 2013 30th Season The English-Speaking Union National Shakespeare Competition is a school-based program designed to help high school students develop their speaking and critical thinking skills and their appreciation of literature as they explore the beauty of the language and the timeless themes in Shakespeare works. In the Competition, students read, interpret, and perform monologues and sonnets in three qualifying stages—at the school, community, and national levels. Since its beginnings with 500 students in NYC, the ESU National Shakespeare Competition has given more than 250,000 young people of all backgrounds the opportunity to discover Shakespeare’s writings and to communicate their understanding of his language and message. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, the Competition currently involves 59 English-Speaking Union Branch communities nationwide. Every spring, the winners of the local Branch Competitions come to New York City to take part in the ESU National Shakespeare Competition semi-finals held at Lincoln Center. In the semi-finals, all contestants perform a monologue and a sonnet onstage. In the last phase of the Competition, those students selected as finalists present a cold reading of a monologue from one of Shakespeare’s plays in addition to their prepared monologues and sonnets. The winner of the ESU National Shakespeare Competition receives a full tuition scholarship to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art’s Young Actors Summer School in London, England. The runner-up receives a full tuition scholarship to the American Shakespeare Center’s Theatre Camp in Staunton, Virginia, and third place is awarded $500 by The Shakespeare Society.

  • Shakespeare on Film and Television in the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress
    SHAKESPEARE ON FILM AND TELEVISION IN THE MOTION PICTURE, BROADCASTING AND RECORDED SOUND DIVISION OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS Compiled by Zoran Sinobad January 2012 Introduction This is an annotated guide to moving image materials related to the life and works of William Shakespeare in the collections of the Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division of the Library of Congress. While the guide encompasses a wide variety of items spanning the history of film, TV and video, it does not attempt to list every reference to Shakespeare or every quote from his plays and sonnets which have over the years appeared in hundreds (if not thousands) of motion pictures and TV shows. For titles with only a marginal connection to the Bard or one of his works, the decision what to include and what to leave out was often difficult, even when based on their inclusion or omission from other reference works on the subject (see below). For example, listing every film about ill-fated lovers separated by feuding families or other outside forces, a narrative which can arguably always be traced back to Romeo and Juliet, would be a massive undertaking on its own and as such is outside of the present guide's scope and purpose. Consequently, if looking for a cinematic spin-off, derivative, plot borrowing or a simple citation, and not finding it in the guide, users are advised to contact the Moving Image Reference staff for additional information. How to Use this Guide Entries are grouped by titles of plays and listed chronologically within the group by release/broadcast date.
