6 | 2011–2012 Annual Report Board of Trustees | 7 Chris Lee 2011–2012 Concert Season A Season of Discovery, 120 Years in the Making In 2011–2012, Carnegie Hall celebrated its 120th anniversary with a season-long exploration of the vibrant world of music and arts that flourished around the time of the Hall’s birth. Throughout the year, audiences were encouraged to explore diverse musical genres offered in approximately 180 performances by some of the world’s greatest artists, from Baroque to Broadway, classical to contemporary, and everything in between. While András Schiff surveyed the works of his fellow Hungarian Béla Bartók and his influence on the world, Christina Pluhar and L’Arpeggiata led audiences on an inventive journey through the evolution of Baroque music and the imaginative world of improvisation in Carnegie Hall’s first-ever early musicPerspectives series. Audiences got to experience the sensual sound worlds of Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho, the 2011–2012 Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair, through a series of concerts that featured her expansive compositions performed by top musicians from her homeland and around the globe as well as professional training workshops with the composer. Pioneers of the American sound were also spotlighted in the citywide American Mavericks, presented in partnership with Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony, and featuring performances by the orchestra as well as an invigorating line-up of musical interpreters. All of these concerts—and many more highlights throughout the season—reflect the energetic spirit of discovery that informed the Hall’s inception and still characterizes Carnegie Hall in the 21st century.

When asked to be a 2011–2012 Perspectives artist, pianist András Schiff was adamant that his season- long residency focus on his countryman Béla Bartók’s vibrant legacy as well as musical reflections of Schiff and Bartók’s native Hungary. Schiff curated a diverse series of concerts from recitals and orchestral to folk music, performed by the pianist and special guests from his homeland that included Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra, pianist Dénes Várjon, and folk group Muzsikás. He also collaborated with the Salzburg Marionette Theater and with young pianists who took part in a Professional Training Workshop presented by the Weill Music Institute.

On their highly creative four-concert Perspectives series, Christina Pluhar and L’Arpeggiata combined Corsican folk music with sacred Italian music, explored the many sides of the tarantella, and revived the Spanish and Neapolitan Baroque tradition, all to find the connecting threads that tie together the music from these varying regions and time periods. Whether it was audiences in the concert hall or young musicians in a series of master classes, all who took part in this residency witnessed the inventive collective’s commitment to tracing the music that forms the core of its repertoire from the 17th century, tying it through contemporary influences to the musical world we inhabit today.

Through WMI, Carnegie Hall has increasingly served a wide range of constituents across the country. The popular Link Up program provides curriculum and concert materials, as well as other resources that help to connect a growing number of orchestras across the country with schools in their communities. The Carnegie Hall Royal Conservatory Achievement Program, a set of sequenced courses and system of assessment providing a recognized national standard of musical success for people studying music privately at all levels, completed its first full year during the 2011–2012 season. Carnegie Hall also announced the creation of the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America, which, beginning in summer 2013, will bring together America’s finest young players for training, coaching, and service as dynamic international musical ambassadors for the US.

The Academy A program of Carnegie Hall, The Juilliard School, and the Weill Music Institute in partnership with the New York City Department of Education

Now in its fifth year, The Academy continued to support young professional musicians by helping them develop their careers as exemplary performers, cutting-edge programmers, and dedicated teachers by providing opportunities not only to perform at the highest level, but also to extend their music making from the concert stage into schools and the larger community. In addition to a robust program of professional development and performance opportunities with Ensemble ACJW, fellows shared their artistry during the school year by partnering with a New York City public school and creating interactive performances for sites that wouldn’t otherwise have access to live music through the Weill Music Institute’s Musical Connections program. Spring 2012 saw the completion of the second year of the program by 18 Academy fellows who, as they proceed with their professional careers, will continue to redefine what it means to be a contemporary musician in the classical music world.

This massive undertaking will enable Carnegie Hall to transform its facilities, ensuring that the Hall remains the premier international destination for the world’s greatest artists in the 21st century and beyond. The project will create new inspirational spaces dedicated to music education within existing upper floors of the building, and will also fully refurbish Carnegie Hall’s backstage areas. A new Education Wing will include ensemble rooms, practice rooms, and teaching studios, as well as a state-of-the-art home for Carnegie Hall’s Archives. Adjacent to the Education Wing will be a new outdoor Roof Terrace—a gathering place for visitors to the building. These new facilities, expected to be completed in 2014, will ultimately increase the number of people that Carnegie Hall serves and provide a wonderful setting in which to inspire a lifelong love of music in young musicians, students, educators, and audiences alike.
