Some questions for Boom for Real: what tools, what language, what new ways of being together do we have now that we didn’t have then with which to read the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat? How has the work changed (which is also to ask, how have we changed)? And how does the work read us now? Fortuitously a new commission, Purple, is currently on show in the Curve by the ferociously brilliant artist John Akomfrah , who claims Basquiat as an influence. Housing Akomfrah and Basquiat at the same institution changes the conversation. This is a crucial time to look at Basquiat again given major global cultural shifts including the rise of more African- American, Caribbean, Latin American and other diaspora artists and writers; the rise of ’First World’ discourses on diaspora; the rise of intersectional black theories (such as black feminist theory, black queer theory, etc) and new histories of black expressive cultures; the rise of critical theory; the rise of alternative histories of conceptualism; the rise and increasing visibility of black immigrants in North America and Europe; the development of institutional support for the arts outside of North America and Europe (through museums, festivals, prizes, biennials, 3 etc); and the endurance and renewal of anti-colonial and black radical movements that continue to fight institutional racism in all spheres.

  • Circle Map Program of Contemporary Classical Works by Kaija Saariaho to Feature New York Premieres Performed by the New York Philharmonic
    Circle Map Program of Contemporary Classical Works by Kaija Saariaho to Feature New York Premieres Performed by the New York Philharmonic Site-Specific Realization by Armory Artistic Director Pierre Audi Conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen Two Performances Only - October 13 and 14, 2016 New York, NY — August 16, 2016 — Park Avenue Armory will present Circle Map, two evenings of immersive spatial works by internationally acclaimed Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho performed by the New York Philharmonic under the baton of its Marie-Josée Kravis Composer-in-Residence Esa-Pekka Salonen on October 13 and 14, 2016. Conceived by Pierre Audi to take full advantage of the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, the engagement marks the orchestra’s first performance at the Armory since 2012’s Philharmonic 360, the acclaimed spatial music program co-produced by the Armory and Philharmonic. A program of four ambitious works that require a massive, open space for their full realization, Circle Map will utilize the vast drill hall in an immersive presentation that continually shifts the relationship between performers and audience. The staging will place the orchestra at the center of the hall, with audience members in a half-round seating arrangement and performances taking place throughout. Longtime Saariaho collaborator Jean-Baptiste Barrière will translate the composer’s soundscapes into projections that include interpretations of literary and visual artworks from which inspiration for specific compositions are drawn. “Our drill hall is an ideal setting and partner for realizing spatial compositions, providing tremendous freedom for composers and performers,” said Rebecca Robertson, President and Executive Producer of Park Avenue Armory.

  • Esa-Pekka Salonen – Long Bio (1237 Words)
    Esa-Pekka Salonen – long bio (1237 words) Esa-Pekka Salonen’s restless innovation drives him constantly to reposition classical music in the 21st century. He is currently the Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor for London’s Philharmonia Orchestra and the Conductor Laureate for the Los Angeles Philharmonic, where he was Music Director from 1992 until 2009. This season is his second of three as the Marie-Josée Kravis Composer-in-Residence at the New York Philharmonic, and his first of five years as Artist in Association at the Finnish National Opera and Ballet. Additionally, Salonen is Artistic Director and cofounder of the annual Baltic Sea Festival, now in its fourteenth year, which invites celebrated artists to promote unity and ecological awareness among the countries around the Baltic Sea. Salonen’s works move freely between contemporary idioms, combining intricacy and technical virtuosity with playful rhythmic and melodic innovations. Three major retrospectives of Salonen's original work have been critical and public successes: at Festival Présences Paris in 2011, at the Stockholm International Composer Festival in 2004, and at Musica Nova, Helsinki in 2003. His pieces for symphony orchestra include Giro (1982), LA Variations (1996), Foreign Bodies (2001), Insomnia (2002), and Nyx (2011), as well as two concertos: for pianist Yefim Bronfman and for violinist Leila Josefowicz. The latter won the prestigious Grawemeyer Award, is performed on three continents this year, and was featured in a 2014 international Apple ad campaign for iPad. Salonen’s most recent composition, Karawane, for orchestra and chorus, premiered during his time as the first-ever Creative Chair at the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich, while his upcoming cello concerto for Yo-Yo Ma will premiere with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra this spring under Salonen's own direction, before going to the New York Philharmonic at home and on their European tour.

  • Myra Melford and John Zorn
    PROGRAM NOTES MUSICNOW: MYRA MELFORD AND JOHN ZORN Marc Mellits OCTET (2010) Duration: 14 minutes Instrumentation: String Octet Commissioned by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra Premiered by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra String Quartet & the Syracuse Symphony Youth Orchestra String Quartet on March 14 2010 at the John H. Mulroy Civic Center in Syracuse, New York Copyright/Publisher: Dacia Music The composer writes: “I composed my Octet during the winter of 2009-10. The majority of the music was written at the Banff Music Center, where I was invited to be an artist-in-residence in January 2010. The incredibly beautiful mountainous surroundings of the Banff Centre had a profound impact on me. My composing studio overlooked the Canadian Rockies, pristine and covered with snow and ice. The weather was brutal, with a level of cold I had never felt. This, juxtaposed with the astounding frozen beauty all around me, provided the inspiration for the music. My studio had a glorious enormous picture window that overlooked the Rockies. The music came quick and it came easy; before I knew it I had material for all four movements. The outer movements are aggressive and have the biting cold I felt, while the second and third movements reflect more of the warmth I felt inside, sharing my thoughts with a wide range of artists who were also in residence.” About the composer: Composer Marc Mellits is one of the leading American composers of his generation, enjoying hundreds of performances throughout the world every year, making him one of the most performed composers in the United States.

    Sakari Oramo Publication Financial Times Date 11 December 2017 Total Immersion: Esa-Pekka Salonen — composer, conductor, audience member A night off for the Finnish maestro as Sakari Oramo led the BBCSO in a performance of his works at the Barbican ★★★★☆ By Richard Fairman The composer doubling as conductor, or vice versa, started life as a 20th-century phenomenon. Richard Strauss and Gustav Mahler led the way in spectacular style. Among later multitasking musicians Britten and Bernstein were notable. In the month that Finland celebrates 100 years of independence, the BBC judiciously picked a Finn for the latest profile in its Total Immersion days, devoted to living composers. Esa-Pekka Salonen is a familiar face in London as principal conductor of the Philharmonia Orchestra, but there is more to him than that. “Most people know you just as a conductor,” declared the BBC announcer in the onstage interview, indecorously stressing the word “just”. Salonen remained tight-lipped, but then silence is probably politic when the host is throwing an all-day party in your honour. A late-afternoon programme brought together choral music by Salonen and his teacher, Einojuhani Rautavaara, skilfully sung by the BBC Singers under Nicholas Chalmers. The brilliant detail of some of Salonen’s earlier pieces was the main pleasure here, prompting a short discussion on how similar the techniques are to his music for orchestra. One’s “tool box is as it is,” he remarked ruefully. Even more than usual, the evening’s orchestral concert was the main event. This is where Salonen the conductor’s lifetime experience of the inner workings of an orchestra really tells.

  • Esa-Pekka Salonen
    ESA-PEKKA SALONEN Esa-Pekka Salonen, the tenth conductor to head the Los Angeles Philharmonic, has begun his 13th season as Music Director. He made his American debut conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic in November 1984, and he has conducted the orchestra every season since. His current tenure is the second-longest in Philharmonic history. Alongside his activities as a conductor, Salonen has garnered acclaim for his work as a composer. Among the many highlights of Salonen’s activities with the Philharmonic have been world premieres of works by composers John Adams, Franco Donatoni, Tan Dun, Witold Lutoslawski, Magnus Lindberg, Gabriela Ortíz, Bernard Rands, Rodion Shchedrin, Steven Stucky, and Augusta Read Thomas, as well as his own works. He has led critically acclaimed festivals of music by Ligeti, Schoenberg, Shostakovich, Stravinsky, and Berlioz, and has appeared with the orchestra at the Ojai Music Festival as the Festival’s Music Director. He and the Philharmonic have toured extensively since 1992, including a month-long residency at the Salzburg Festival and at the Theatre du Châtelet in Paris. Highlights of the 2003/2004 season included three gala concerts to inaugurate Walt Disney Concert Hall, nine world premieres, and festivals celebrating Berlioz, the relationship between architecture and music, and the theme of creation. Salonen’s latest orchestral work, Wing on Wing, received its world premiere as part of the Philharmonic’s Building Music Project in June 2004. This season, a series of subscription concerts – 3 x Salonen – and a residency in Cologne, Germany celebrate Salonen’s 20 years of conducting the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the body of his work as a composer.
