As you have come to expect, this season includes new works by the world’s most inspiring and engaging artists, performers and ensembles. But this season also begins with incredibly good news: Carolina Performing Arts recently received a $750,000 grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for “The Rite of Spring at 100,” an upcoming project for the 2012-13 season that marks the centennial of this seminal and groundbreaking work. The Rite of Spring premiered in Paris in 1913, with music by Igor Stravinsky, choreography by Vaslav Nijinsky and performed by the Ballets Russes. Stravinsky and Nijinsky pushed the boundaries of artistic presentation with the use of complex and primitive rhythms, dissonance and shockingly unconventional choreography. Audience members expressed their contempt, and loud arguments drowned out the orchestra. Before long, a full-scale riot had broken out in the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées and police were called to subdue the mayhem. Through “The Rite of Spring at 100” project, we are commissioning 12 new works by 20 artists, by such luminaries as choreographer 2 Bill T. Jones and director Anne Bogart. French composer Marc-Andrew Dalbavie will write a new work for mezzo-soprano Magdalena Kožená and pianist Yefim Bronfman. Uzbek composer Dmitri Yanov-Yanovsky will write a new work for the Silk Road Ensemble with Yo-Yo Ma. More artists will be announced in the ensuing months and we’ll be sure to keep you informed. Like some of the sentiment at the 1913 premiere of The Rite of Spring, our 11/12 season may also include some work that you may find difficult to understand. Whatever Paris audiences thought on that night in 1913, they witnessed the premiere of one of the 1 most important works of the 20th century. Just think, the performance you are seeing tonight may also share a similar legacy. Thank you for your support. Please enjoy the performances. Sincerely, / Emil J.

  • EASTMAN NOTES JUNE 2004 Draft: Final Date: 6/15/2004 INSIDE
    NOTES JUNE 2004 A MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI OF THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FROM THE EDITOR The right “stu≠” Dear Eastman Alumni: We like Notes’ new look, and it seems you do too. Response has been unani- mously favorable; perhaps we should consider a Steve Boerner–David Cowles NOTES presidential ticket for 2008. I’d vote for them; these two artists made “Notes Volume 22, Number 2 nouveau” a pleasure, and I’m glad the pleasure was conveyed in the magazine June 2004 itself. I write the stuff, but they (and our photographers) make it look good! We also had a tremendous response to our “Eastman Alumni on CD” feature; Editor see pages 33¬34. And enough of you commented on different editorial aspects of David Raymond Notes (not always favorably) that we have a “Letters to the Editor” section, which Assistant editor may be a first for us. Christina Casey This issue of Notes is admittedly filled with history, but Susan Conkling’s re- Contributing writers minder of the great women who shaped both American music and Eastman, and Martial Bednar Amy Blum Paul Burgett’s reminder of four black composers who Christine Corrado played an important part in Eastman history, are stories Contributing photographers worth telling. As is the story of the success of Howard Kurt Brownell Hanson’s Merry Mount at the Met in 1934—a remarkable Gelfand-Piper Photography event, when you think about it. I should add a special Bob Klein Photography word of thanks here to David Peter Coppen, the Sibley Carlos Ortiz Don Ver Ploeg/VP Communications Library Archivist, who is always helpful with providing Amy Vetter historical photographs and other materials for Notes, but Photography coordinator outdid himself for these three articles.

  • Michael Newman - Body As Place: Antony Gormley Outside-In
    MICHAEL NEWMAN - BODY AS PLACE: ANTONY GORMLEY OUTSIDE-IN From MODEL, White Cube, London, UK Body as Place: Antony Gormley Outside-In I In 1973, after returning from a trip to India, Antony Gormley made a series of works based on plaster-soaked sheets placed over the prone bodies of friends. He writes that he had been touched seeing people asleep on streets and railway platforms covered by cotton saris or dhotis, which 'described the minimum space necessary for a person to establish shelter.' [1] In retrospect, we can see here many of the elements of his work to come: the sculpture produced by contact, by recreating the body through a mould rather than representing it; the minimum means for establishing a relation to place; and a sense of stillness. But these works are by no means benign. Considering these sculptures in the present day, we are perhaps more aware of their political implications: that they show not a universal condition but poverty in Asia, the place of the West's supposed 'other'; and that the 'world' of the people who live and sleep like this can no longer be considered apart from global networks and relations of power. In effect, the two dimensions of these works - the cover and the body - subsequently divided into two ways of making place. For ROOM (1980), Gormley took his own clothes, cut them into continuous spirals of cloth, and formed an inaccessible enclosure within the space of the room by wrapping them like a fence or wall around four poles. In the following year he began making sculpture by wrapping lead around a form produced from a mould of his own body, resulting in an organic shape sometimes rather like a pod or Egyptian mummy case marked on its surface by the rectilinear grid of welds.

  • UK Passport Design
    Introducing the new UK passport design The new design For many centuries, the United Kingdom has led the way in the creative industries. Her Majesty’s Passport Office is proud to launch the new ‘Creative United Kingdom’ passport with some of the best achievements of the last 500 years in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The new passport contains images depicting just some of the successes in innovation, architecture, art, and performance that the UK has brought to the world. For innovation, these include Stephenson’s Rocket and the London Underground. To represent architectural excellence, the work of Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and modern day architecture such as the Falkirk Wheel are shown. In art, the work of John Constable, as well as current greats Antony Gormley and Anish Kapoor, are included. William Shakespeare and the Globe Theatre are also featured to represent the very best of what the UK has brought to the performing arts. The new 34 page book houses the most intricate designs that have ever been produced for a UK passport. In keeping with its theme, these designs, coupled with some of the latest security features, mean that the new passport is at the very forefront of creativity in secure document production. The UK passport is one of the most important documents a British national can hold, giving them the freedom of international travel and a means to prove their identity. But as an internationally respected document it also becomes a target for fraudsters who try to create false passports, or tamper with existing ones for criminal gain.
