Discounts available for full-time students, seniors and groups. Photo Images Available on Request February 1, 2017, San Francisco: The 2017 San Francisco International Arts Festival will feature a brilliant 11 day program co-presented with, and held exclusively at, the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture. The Festival will feature 100 presentations by 65 ensembles and individual performing artists travelling from 15 other countries and the United States. It is a gathering that celebrates diversity, multiculturalism, curiosity and the value of otherness—a commitment that advocates for experiencing the cultural expressions of different societies and civilizations as a way to help understand and embrace them. Festival director, Andrew Wood, heralded the significance of the program, “The recent national elections were an anathema to most people in the Bay Area. In the face of adversity it is our job to stand up and declare that San Francisco remains an international city that welcomes a full and healthy dialogue with the rest of the world. We are inviting artists from a spectrum of countries to present their work alongside their American peers in a global celebration that honors the enduring sanctity and belief in the value of the human spirit. Some people in other areas of the country may want to cloak themselves in a veil of intolerance, but we are different. San Francisco and California will lead by example and continue to embrace the people of the world. We invite all those who want to share in these sentiments and who still believe in America’s multicultural promise to join us for an occasion that is powerful, provocative and beautiful.” The Festival will also, for the first time, be opening its doors as a platform to promote the work of local and international artists as part of an industry marketplace. SFIAF will invite arts presenters from throughout the country to attend the Festival for the purposes of seeing (and potentially booking) artistic work that they see on the Festival’s seven stages. As such the California Presenters association (attended by up to 150 arts presenters from the western states) will be holding its annual conference in San Francisco during the Festival and a number of its members will head to the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture. Wood said of this significant development, “When we started the Festival in 2003 the goal was to create a uniquely San Francisco version of the great Festivals of the world that combined presenting brilliant performances from across the globe with an industry gathering that included a discreet marketplace dimension. It took our current partnership with the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture that began with the 2015 Festival to allow us to build a program density to finally achieve this goal.” Opening night will feature multiple performances including the spectacular GuGu Drum Group from Shanghai, China and from France the US debut of Stereoptik who perform an ingenious shadow puppet play Dark Circus with the ominous tagline, “Come for the Show, Stay for the Woe!”. Also headlining this year’s Festival is the award winning play from Moscow’s Teatr Doc with the Meyerhold Theatre Center produced US Premiere of the English language version of One Day We Will All Be Happy. They will be joined by a revolutionary young contemporary choreographer from China named Gu Jiani with the west coast premiere of her hauntingly beautiful piece Right and Left. Gu Jiani’s work is part of a dance program that contemplates a Pirouette with Asia and includes JJBro, Scarabe and Victor Fung Dance from South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong respectively. Scotland based Estonian choreographer Eve Mutso will make her US debut with Unknown alongside the Bay Area’s Levy Dance and Alyce Finwall Dance Theater. There will also be the US debut of choreographer Tabea Martin from Switzerland and the Bay Area debut of pianist Pablo Estigarrabia from Argentina. The Festival will also feature the return of old friends such as improviser and pianist Shih Yang Lee from Taiwan, this time with his ensemble Ka Dao Yin, choreographer Myriam Gourfink from France with noise music aficionado Kasper Toeplitz and Trio Balkan Strings from Serbia. International collaborations include the Bay Area’s Richard Marriot with Made Subandi from Bali, ABADÁ Capoeira in collaboration with dancers from Brazil, Europe and Canada and Latifa Medjdoub with Haco from Japan. The Festival is also pleased to announce a series of programs suitable for families with children featuring Stereoptik, GuGu Drum Group, ABADA Capoeira, Aswan Dancers, Fanfare Zambaleta, Vishwa Shanthi Performing Arts, Abhinaya Dance Company, Amy Lewis, Latifa Medjdoub with Haco and Chris Carlsson.

DANCE Abhinaya Dance Company of San Jose (USA), Sanchaari - Elaboration Friday May 26, 8:00pm, Cowell Theater (Festival Family Program) Tickets: $25 General admission. Duration: 90 min. without intermission The traditional framework of the 2000 year old classical Bharatanatyam dance has engendered many interpretations through its renaissance period of the early 20th century to the present time.

Duration 60 minutes without intermission. Siamese Dream takes the classic Hollywood musical The King and I and the physicality of Hong Kong kung fu movies to create a fantasia of Asian Americana. Awash in the movement are such things as the music of Riyuchi Sakamoto and soundtracks from Hong Kong action flicks. Siamese Dream examines notions and media impinging on Asian American identity. Alma Esperanza Cunningham Movement (USA), She Went/Between Mars and Jupiter (World Premiere) Friday May 26 7:00pm, Saturday May 27 2:00pm, Sunday May 28 5:30pm. Firehouse Tickets: $25 General admission. Duration: 60 mins. without intermission.

It’s easy to stay home, waiting for spring and baseball and New York@Night promising to go out once it gets warm. 4 But now is not the time for complacency. There are countless musicians in our fair city that need your support, especially when lethargy seems so appealing. To Interview: Ron McClure quote our Megaphone this month, written by pianist Steve Colson, music is meant 6 by Donald Elfman to help people “reclaim their intellectual and emotional lives.” And that is not hard to do in a city like New York, which even in the dead of winter, gives jazz Artist Feature: Harris Eisenstadt lovers so many choices. Where else can you stroll into the Village Vanguard 7 by Clifford Allen (Happy 75th Anniversary!) every Monday and hear a band with as much history as the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra (On the Cover). Or see as well-traveled a bassist as On The Cover: Vanguard Jazz Orchestra Ron McClure (Interview) take part in the reunion of the legendary Lookout Farm 9 by George Kanzler quartet at Birdland? How about supporting those young, vibrant artists like Encore: Lest We Forget: drummer Harris Eisenstadt (Artist Feature) whose bands and music keep jazz relevant and exciting? 10 Svend Asmussen Joe Maneri In addition to the above, this month includes a Lest We Forget on the late by Ken Dryden by Clifford Allen saxophonist Joe Maneri, honored this month with a tribute concert at the Irondale Center in Brooklyn.

The Blowout Sax School had been building up it's reputation over the years and William checked the record and found it was currently held by the Dutch who played a specially composed piece called 'Off the Beaten Track! Well Blowout Sax founder Mark Archer figured the 321 saxophonists needed would be a breeze! This is because The Blowout Sax Bath and Bristol currently boasted over 180 students so that was a backbone!! Plus a list of oldies and brightened by the early optimism it would be easy to eclipse that total. There are so many different reasons to put The Blowout Sax Schools on the map.It's originality stemmed from the fact that the Blowout Sax teachers make music enjoyable, amusing and quick to learn.
