2001-2002 Season Schedule
Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 6, 2012 The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts announces Nordic Cool 2013 International Festival of Theater, Dance, Music, Visual Arts, Literature, Design, and Film To Highlight Culture of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden As Well as Territories of Greenland, the Faroe and Åland Islands In Ticketed and Free Events Throughout the Kennedy Center February 19 – March 17, 2013 (WASHINGTON, D.C.)—From February 19 to March 17, 2013, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts presents an unprecedented festival highlighting the culture of the Nordic countries— Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden—and the territories of Greenland, the Faroe, and Åland Islands. Continuing the Center’s tradition of producing renowned international celebrations by curating traditional and contemporary expressions of theater, dance, music, visual arts, literature, design, and film, this Festival will also explore the interplay of themes central to Nordic life, such as nature, technological innovation, environmental sustainability, entrepreneurial spirit, and youth culture. Seeking to answer the question of what is “Nordic,” this Festival aspires to offer clarity on a region of the world whose dynamic culture and creative economy have seemed elusive to many, particularly in America. By exploring the region’s cultural diversity, the Kennedy Center aims to foster an appreciation of the Nordic heritage, and an understanding of the region’s emerging global influence. In addition to the performing arts, New Nordic Cuisine will be highlighted in the Kennedy Center’s restaurants and demonstrations by the region’s renowned chefs will be featured on the Millennium Stage. -
Honouring Every Note Nobody Knows When and Where A
Honouring every note Nobody knows when and where a musician is born. Then one day there he is with his accordion; alone on the big stage or in the concert hall surrounded by strings, in the smoky basement with enthusiastically improvising free jazz players, or with a Hardanger fiddler and a folk singer on a simple wooden stage erected for the occasion; Frode Haltli seats himself on his stool, perfectly self-assured, the accordion safely resting in his shoulder straps; a quietly satisfied smile spreads over his frank, disarming face, no antics, no gestures. Can one really demand so little attention? Just a few seconds pass. Then the music sounds out. Where is it coming from? From the first note, he sets us, the audience, free. He is already into the work, he has already taken us with him into the music. How does it happen? 'Duende' is an expression used in the flamenco tradition to define the state when the singer's personal sorrows and passions pervade the music and we, the audience, as if by a touch of grace, hear life itself in its grief, pain and rejoicing. A similar expression is used by traditional Norwegian fiddlers; 'å ha dåm i spelet', that is the moment when through the fiddle player the 'springar' or 'halling' dance tune starts to live its own life and turn into a kind of cathedral; every member of the audience knows when it happens and that they too are in the 'cathedral'. In these rare but unique moments the wings of the music touch us; we can never forget it, we shall always long for it. -

Trygve Seim Frode Haltli Yeraz
ECM Trygve Seim Frode Haltli Yeraz Trygve Seim: tenor and soprano saxophones Frode Haltli: accordion ECM 2044 CD 6025 175 7975 (0) Release: September 2008 “Listen as this reed pipes its plaint/Unfolds its tale of separations”– so begins Rumi’s “The Song of the Reed”. When Trygve Seim and Frode Halti play – activating reeds with lungs and bellows – sounds of saxophone and accordion can be remarkably close, as they draw together the cries of the world. Seim and Haltli explore the similarities between the instruments and the musical history they share. Writing in Jazzwise magazine, UK journalist Geoff Andrew praised a recent Berlin performance by the duo at the appropriately-named Shared Sounds festival. “Trygve Seim and Frode Haltli played a rewarding extended duet that embraced all manner of moods and allusions. The fragmented interplay between saxes and accordion was quite mesmerizingly beautiful.” The cover shows an open road stretching towards the horizon, and this is music in movement; Its sources include Armenian traditional music (the title track), music of G.I. Gurdjieff (the Greek-Armenian philosopher-mystic who collected traditional material on travels around the Caucasus and the Middle-East), Caribbean Wailers’ reggae (a rubato version of Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song”), a free waltz with a nod to US singer-songwriter Tom Waits (“Waits for Waltz”), improvisations.... Some favourite pieces are revisited: “MmBall” (by Seim’s drummer Per Oddvar Johansen), Seim’s “Bhavana” and “Airamero” (the latter from the repertoire of Trygve’s old band of the early 1990s, itself strongly ECM-influenced) and more – all tunes newly arranged by Seim and Haltli. -

Catalogue 2009/10 ECM Paul Griffiths Bread and Water
Catalogue 2009/10 ECM Paul Griffiths Bread and Water Here is someone standing at the entrance to the gallery who goes on talking all the time while almost all the visitors who come are rushing by in their eagerness to inspect what is on show inside. The hall a little way beyond is packed with rare and wonderful things, beautifully laid out and informatively labelled. There is much to see, much to learn. This is what the visitors have come for. Why, then, linger at the doorway? Why wait? But you, you have stopped. Thank you. Yes, this is the gallery, this the exhibition: a catalogue. We can use the word either to mean this paper object you hold in your hands or the totality of items a publisher or, as in this case, record company has available for sale: the CATALOGUE, as we may put it. Such a CATALOGUE is changeable as the ocean is: things will go (though rarely, where ECM is concerned), more will come. The catalogue, on the other hand, is fixed, a photograph of the ocean. There was a moment, probably before it reached print, when the catalogue was identical with the CATALOGUE. But that moment has passed and will not come again, for the ocean is growing and the photograph cannot. Is the catalogue therefore impoverished? No, no more than a photograph is. This is no snapshot, no fuzzy image trapped half_thoughtlessly on a mobile phone. Look at what you have in your hands: this is something well made, something composed. A professional photographer must have been invited to make a study of the ocean. -
Modern Accordion Perspectives
An expert panel of the most well-know classical accordionists, MODERN MAP professors, skillful and progressive musicians of the youngest O C E generations and several accordion festival organizers, introduces a discussion about the current situation of the accordion on a MOD D C R professional, academic, pedagogic, artistic scene. ACCORDION E O S R R P It illustrates, on a international level, the “possible ways” for young accordionists, looking at the future of our instrument and at the main ERN N D E professional perspectives and at the strategies to emancipate young I C musicians in the real music world, and considering the importance and the role of conventional accordion organizations, contests and festivals.
