Raised in Akron, Ohio, he came to New York to study English Literature and music at Columbia. After graduation, he joined the downtown New York arts scene: founding the rock band The Del-Byzanteens with Jim Jarmusch and James Nares, collaborating with Nan Goldin on the soundtrack to The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, and playing guitar in the notorious Glenn Branca Ensemble. His early compositions grew out of his solo performance art and often used boombox tape players as a medium, most notably in the Christmas piece Unsilent Night, which debuted in the streets of Greenwich Village in 1992 and is now performed annually in dozens of cities around the world. Other notable compositions include Zippo Songs , a song cycle based on poems Vietnam vets inscribed on their Zippo lighters, The Blue Room and Other Stories , written for string quartet Ethel, and Exquisite Corpses, commissioned by the Bang on a Can All-Stars. More recent works include the choral Mass John the Revelator, written for vocal group Lionheart; a piano sonata, The Long Winter , written for Sarah Cahill; and scores for three evening-length dance pieces by Wally Cardona: Everywhere , Site and Really Real . The sound installation World on a String opened the season at the Krannert Center in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, in September 2007 and SPACE for string quartet and electronics was performed by Ethel at the gala reopening of Alice Tully Hall in 2009. 2011 saw the premieres of A Dream and its Opposite , written for the La Jolla Symphony Orchestra, Canzona a due Cuori , commissioned by the St. Luke’s Chamber Ensemble, and a book of organ pieces commissioned for the gigantic Kotschmar Organ of Portland, Maine. The recently completed Partita for Solo Violin will be premiered by Jennifer Koh in the 2013 season. Kline is currently working on an opera, Tesla in New York , in collaboration with writer-director Jim Jarmusch, as well as a song cycle for Theo Bleckmann, Out Cold, to be presented at the BAM Next Wave Festival. He has also been commissioned to write a new work celebrating the 100 th birthday of John Cage for the Lincoln Center Out of Doors Festival. His music is available on the Cantaloupe, CRI and Starkland labels.

Con el presente trabajo se pretende realizar una inmersión a las manifestaciones artísticas que se dan en el entorno No Wave de Nueva York entre los años 70 y 80. El objetivo principal es estudiar las relaciones que existen entre las figuras más relevantes tanto en artes plásticas como en música y cine. El título “Lenguajes artísticos y vanguardias” responde a una intención de establecer las colaboraciones y cruces entre las artes, ya que al tratarse de un movimiento heterogéneo, se puede y se busca estudiar diferentes artistas y objetos artísticos. Este aspecto, a nivel personal, es otro de los que nos convencieron para abordar este tema, ya que nos permite indagar en varias manifestaciones en lugar de centrarnos en una única expresión, así como en los artistas clave del momento y como encajan todos los elementos en un lugar y momento determinados.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 23, 2016 CONTACT: Ren Mitchell 832-314-9994 [email protected] Karen Stokes Dance presents DEEP: Seaspace at Zilkha Hall, Hobby Center for Performing Arts HOUSTON, TX: Karen Stokes Dance presents “DEEP: Seaspace” October 20-22, 2016 at 8:00pm at the Hobby Center for Performing Arts, Zilkha Hall. “DEEP: Seaspace” is the culminating performance of a multi-year initiative inspired by the history and landmarks of the City of Houston. With an original score by composer Bill Ryan played live by nationally recognized musicians, the evening length live performance will explore Houston for two if its defining industries: sea and space. “DEEP: Seaspace” fuses history, landscape, dance, and music through the lens of two iconic Houston enterprises: The Houston Ship Channel and NASA. While Sea speaks to the pioneering spirit of the founding of Houston along the banks of Buffalo Bayou and the formation of the Houston Ship Channel, Space is inspired by Houston’s stronghold in space exploration and human achievement. Celebrating Houston's unique heritage and Texas’ pioneering spirit, “DEEP: Seaspace” investigates the core of human progress, the fundamental spirit of Houston, and the desire to understand the unknown to forge a better tomorrow. In “DEEP: Seaspace,” Stokes explores “launching” and “landing” through a unique blend of quirky and innovative choreographic styles that has become the trademark of her 20 years of work in contemporary dance. Stokes has received regional and national acclaim for her choreography including being name “Best Choreographer in Houston” in both 2014 and 2015 by the Houston Press. Nancy Wozny, of Texas Arts & Culture, wrote: “In Houston, it’s Karen Stokes who comes to mind as an artist tightly tied to Texas.

The Jewish Museum and Bang on a Can Present ETHEL Performing the String Quartets of Julia Wolfe
The Jewish Museum and Bang on a Can Present ETHEL Performing the String Quartets of Julia Wolfe Photos by Matthew Murphy (ETHEL) and Peter Serling (Julia Wolfe) Thursday, February 28, 2019 at 7:30pm Scheuer Auditorium at the Jewish Museum 1109 5th Ave at 92nd St | New York, NY Tickets: $20 General; $16 Students and Seniors; $12 Jewish Museum Members Available at www.thejewishmuseum.org. Includes museum admission. New York, NY – Bang on a Can and the Jewish Museum’s 2018-2019 concert season, pairing innovative music with the Museum’s exhibitions and showcasing leading female performers and composers, continues on Thursday, February 28, 2019 at 7:30pm. The acclaimed string quartet ETHEL performs the complete string quartets of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Julia Wolfe: Dig Deep, Early that Summer, Four Marys, and Blue Dress. This is the first performance of all of Wolfe's string quartets at one time, on one stage. Julia Wolfe's string quartets, as described by The New Yorker, "combine the violent forward drive of rock music with an aura of minimalist serenity [using] the four instruments as a big guitar, whipping psychedelic states of mind into frenzied and ecstatic climaxes." This performance is presented in conjunction with the exhibition of fellow New York City cultural icon Martha Rosler: Irrespective. Established in New York City in 1998, ETHEL quickly earned a reputation as one of America’s most adventurous string quartets. Twenty years later, the band continues to set the standard for contemporary concert music. ETHEL is Ralph Farris (viola), Kip Jones (violin), Dorothy Lawson (cello), and Corin Lee (violin).

We are excited to share this year’s lineup of world-class chamber ensembles as we have done for the past 67 years. As always, we wish to thank you, our loyal audience of subscribers, patrons, donors and chamber music lovers. The ACMS thrives because of you and we are grateful. Founded in 1952 by Joe Vandewart, a refugee from Nazi Germany and ten other music lovers, the Asheville Cham- ber Music Series began modestly. After setting up a table in the lobby of the Battery Park Hotel, the group quickly found 800 people willing to pay the $4 price for a season subscription for “an unspecified number of concerts.” The Alberni Trio gave the first concert on October 16, 1952. Since then, chamber ensembles from around the world have performed for the Series. These include the Buda- pest, Emerson, Fine Arts, Juilliard, and Kodaly Quartets, along with trios, piano quartets, quintets and larger cham- ber ensembles as well as duos, such as the one featuring cellist Janos Starker and flautist Jean-Pierre Rampal.
