With resonant theater, dance, and music events as well as performance art, physical theater, and productions featuring live filmmaking, the festival presents an especially rich assortment of global contemporary performing arts.” BAM President Karen Brooks Hopkins said, “We are extremely grateful to Bloomberg Philanthropies for their support of the 2015 Next Wave Festival and their commitment to our mission.

Dancers move against a video backdrop of sensual images of the life cycle of a rice paddy filmed in southeastern Taiwan. Their movements, although abstract, seem to echo the images, sometimes evoking the farmers working in the field or the rice stalks swaying in the wind. The dance pays tribute to the land and nature that have cultivated Cloud Gate. Lin Hwai-min, choreographer and artistic director of Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan, studied Chinese opera movement in his native Taiwan, modern dance in New York, creative writing in Iowa, and classical court dance in Japan and Korea. In 1973, Lin founded the first contemporary dance company in any Chinese-speaking region, naming it after the oldest known dance in China—Cloud Gate, a ritual dance created some 5,000 years ago. Trained in tai chi tao yin—an ancient form of qigong, modern dance, ballet, meditation, and calligraphy—Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan’s arresting style has elicited widespread praise, with Dance Europe noting: “No company in the world dances like Cloud Gate.” The company made its BAM debut in 1995 with Nine Songs; since then it has appeared at BAM with Songs of the Wanderers (2000 Next Wave), Moon Water (2003 Next Wave; recognized as one of the best dance events in 2003 by The New York Times), Wild Cursive (2007 Next Wave), and Water Stains on the Wall (2011 Next Wave).

Directed by the Oscar-nominated production designer K.K. Barrett (Her, Marie Antoinette, Lost in Translation, Being John Malkovich) the story centers around a lonesome, music-obsessed, headphones-sporting robot on the verge of obsolescence who falls in love with a winsome office worker. After a chance encounter, their precarious courtship unfolds via real-time filming of more than a dozen miniature stage settings and a cast of meticulously-crafted puppets. Kid Koala and the dynamic Canadian ensemble, the Afiara Quartet, provide the live score for piano, strings, and turntables, creating an unforgettably heartwarming performance experience that provides a fresh look at contemporary relationships, technology, and existential relevance. Kid Koala is a world-renowned scratch DJ, music producer, and award-winning graphic novelist. He has released four solo albums and has toured with the likes of Radiohead, the Beastie Boys, Arcade Fire, Money Mark, A Tribe Called Quest, Mike Patton, DJ Shadow, and The Preservation Hall Jazz Band. He has contributed to scores for the films Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Looper, and The Great Gatsby. He has composed music for the National Film Board of Canada, the Cartoon Network, Sesame Street, and Adult Swim. In addition to Nufonia Must Fall, he also wrote and published the graphic novel Space Cadet.

  • Mohammed Fairouz: an Appreciation by Rick Schultz
    Artist Biographies & Liner Notes “Zabur” Indianapolis Symphonic Choir Mohammed Fairouz: An Appreciation by Rick Schultz Zabur is Mohammed Fairouz's first oratorio, a genre for large orchestra, choir and soloists going back centuries. Such rich musical soil allows Fairouz to create a sacred dialogue -- a dialogue not just between characters, but also between the artist and his listeners. From its powerful choral opening, Zabur doesn't let up, placing us directly into a theater of war where a city is under siege. Like one of his literary predecessors, English poet William Blake, Fairouz rages against those "who would if they could, for ever depress Mental & prolong Corporeal War." Fairouz, an Emirati-American composer, once characterized himself as a "creature of the desert," referring to his deep Middle Eastern roots. Dry desert winds often drift across his emotionally resonant musical landscapes. But Fairouz, one of our country's most essential storytellers, isn't out to lecture anyone. His mission, if he has one, is to beautify the world -- to create art as a counterforce to dehumanization, as a bridge to our universal past. One of Fairouz's most aching and ravishing scores, Zabur conjures a timeless world in song settings of epic grandeur and shattering intimacy. Like his Symphony No. 3 ("Poems and Prayers"), Zabur becomes an enticement to feel. By revealing our shared emotions and experiences, Fairouz allows us to recharge our humanity amid a surfeit of numbing images of disaster and atrocity. At the conclusion of "Poems and Prayers," Fairouz sets Yehuda Amichai's poem "Memorial Day for the War Dead," in which the poet hopes that behind so much sorrow, "some great happiness is hiding." Paradoxically, what makes Zabur such a compelling war requiem is its optimism.

  • Chorale Fantasy.MUS
    MOHAMMED FAIROUZ CHORALE FANTASY for String Quartet MOHAMMED FAIROUZ CHORALE FANTASY for String Quartet Chorale Fantasy was written in response to the Borromeo String Quartet’s initiative to com- mission a set of chorale preludes. This short work lives in the world between maqam (Arabic modes) and gentle counterpoint. It opens with a short introduction leading to a violin line with unheard lyrics against an insisting drone. It then conspires into a whirling dance reaching a vocal climax and returns at the end to the gentleness of the opening. All of the parts of Chorale Fantasy are written within the singing range of the human voice. The work is affectionately dedicated to the Borromeo Quartet. —Mohammed Fairouz Chorale Fantasy is recorded on "Native Informant," Naxos American Classics CD 8.559744, performed by the Borromeo String Quartet. Mohammed Fairouz, born in 1985, is one of the most frequently performed, commissioned, and recorded composers of his generation. Hailed by The New York Times as “an important new artistic voice” and by BBC World News as “one of the most talented composers of his generation,” Fairouz melds Middle-Eastern modes and Western structures to deeply expressive effect. His large-scale works, including four symphonies and an opera, engage major geopolitical and philosophical themes with persuasive craft and a marked seriousness of purpose. His solo and chamber music attains an “intoxicating intimacy,” according to New York’s WQXR. A truly cosmopolitan voice, Fairouz had a transatlantic upbringing. By his early teens, the Arab- American composer had traveled across five continents, immersing himself in the musical life of his surroundings.

Marius Constant) Le tombeau de Couperin • La valse Maurice Ravel’s Valses nobles et sentimentales present a vivid mixture of atmospheric impressionism, intense expression and modernist wit, his fascination with the waltz further explored in La valse, a mysterious evocation of a vanished imperial epoch. Heard here in an orchestration by Marius Constant, Gaspard de la nuit is Ravel’s response to the other-worldly poems of Aloysius Bertrand, and the dance suite Le tombeau de Couperin is a tribute to friends who fell in the war of 1914-18 as well as a great 18th century musical forbear. ‘It is a delightful and assorted collection… presented in splendid performances by the Orchestre National de Lyon led by their music director, the venerable American conductor Leonard Slatkin.’ (Classical.net / Volume 1, 8.572887) Volume 1 of this series of Ravel’s orchestral music (8.572887 and NBD0030) has proved an immediate hit and has been warmly received by the press. Gramophone admired Leonard Slatkin’s ‘affinity with [Ravel’s] particular world of sound’, and of the Orchestre National de Lyon, stated that ‘it augurs well as a companion to the orchestra’s Debussy set 8.572888 Playing Time: 66:39 under Jun Märkl.’ The Blu-ray version provides a spectacular alternative to CD, ‘the orchestral colors… are beautifully realized by Slatkin and his forces, and well-preserved in either hi-res format’ (Audiophile Audition 7 47313 28887 8 5-star review).
