    INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR IMPROVISED MUSIC SIXTH FESTIVAL/CONFERENCE Improvisation · Self · Community·World February 16-19, 2012 William Paterson University Wayne, New Jersey, USA Keynote artists and performers: Pyeng Threadgill & trio Ikue Mori, Sylvie Courvoisier & Jim Black Mulgrew Miller WyldLyfe Robert Dick & Tom Buckner Karl Berger with the University of Michigan Creative Arts Orchestra And over 50 other artists presenting concerts, panels, talks and workshops! ISIM President’s Welcome ISIM President’s Welcome On behalf of the Board of Directors of the International Society for Improvised Music, I extend to all of you a hearty welcome to the sixth ISIM Festival/Conference. Nothing is more gratifying than gatherings of improvising musicians as our common process, regardless of surface differences in our creative expressions, unites us in ways that are truly unique. As the conference theme suggests, by going deep within our reservoir of creativity, we access subtle dimensions of self—or consciousness—that are the source of connections with not only our immediate communities but the world at large. It is dificult to imagine a moment in history when the need for this improvisation-driven, creativity revolution is greater on individual and collective scales than the present. Please join me in thanking the many individuals, far too many to list, who have been instrumental in making this event happen. Headliners Ikue Mori, Pyeng Threadgill, Wyldlife, Karl Berger, the University of Michigan Creative Arts Orchestra, the William Paterson University jazz group, Mulgrew Miller, Robert Dick, and Thomas Buckner—we could not have asked for a more varied and exciting line-up. ISIM Board members Stephen Nachmanovitch and Bill Johnson have provided invaluable assistance, with Steve working his usual heroics with the ISIM website in between, and sometimes during, his performing and speaking tours.

  • Showcase Stage (Presented by Casino Woodbine) Bios
    Showcase Stage (Presented by Casino Woodbine) Bios Mushy Callahan Mushy Callahan is a four-piece alternative, Indie Rock band consisting of brothers Noah, Joel, Jake and Luke. Hailing from the prairies of Alberta, the band’s unique blend of classic and modern rock has been likened to bands like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Band of Skulls, and The Stills, but with enough flair to make it entirely their own. Currently working on their fourth studio album, the brothers have graced stages across Canada and the UK, with appearances at notable festivals such as Edgefest, NXNE and Focus Wales. Total Runout Total Runout is a 3 piece Alternative Rock band from Toronto consisting of brothers Thomas and Alex Arthur with long time friend Dan Morson. Their passion for high energy riff rock incorporates elements of various contemporary bands which they deliver in a scintillating live performance. The bands ability to vary their setup adds to its mystique with brothers Thomas (keys, drums and vocals) and Alex (bass, drums and backing vocals) able to switch between instruments at a moment's notice. Guitar player Dan however maintains his position on the six strings covering both rhythm and lead duties. Breaching Vista Hailing from Kitchener, Ontario, alternative rock band Breaching Vista has been entertaining and engaging audiences since 2007.

  • HENRY and LEIGH BIENEN SCHOOL of MUSIC FALL 2019 Fanfare First Chair
    HENRY AND LEIGH BIENEN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FALL 2019 fanfare first chair A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN As a new class of talented artist-scholars enters the Bienen School of Music, we celebrate another record year for music admissions, with increases in total applications, selectivity, and yield of admitted students enrolled. This year’s entering students join a school community already brimming with accomplishments. Current and recent students have achieved distinction as recipients of the Avery Fisher Career Grant, the Solti Fellowship, Grammy Awards and nominations, Northwestern’s Presidential Fellowship, and National Endowment for the Arts grants. They have excelled in numerous high-profile contests, including the Tchaikovsky Competition, the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, the National Association of Teachers of Singing competi- tions, and Downbeat magazine’s student competition. Our graduates continue to win coveted posi- tions in orchestras and academic institutions worldwide. All these achievements are a direct result of the excellence of our distinguished faculty, who are recognized nationally and internationally as leaders in teaching, performance, and scholarship. Demonstrating our graduates’ successes, nearly 200 alumni—representing virtually every major orchestra and US military ensemble—returned to campus in June to celebrate the 50th anniversary of our Symphonic Wind Ensemble (see page 10). The weekend culminated in a special SWE reunion concert, offering vivid proof of how much our alumni value and treasure the educa- tion they received here in the Bienen School.

From this already elite group of potential applicants, the school seeks those who meet Northwestern’s high academic standards for admis- sion.
