NONESUCH RECORDS AT BAM Greetings At BAM, we work with fantastic artists from all over the world. It is no coincidence that time and again, we have presented artists who have found a recording home with Nonesuch. To help celebrate the label’s 50th year, we are showcasing a diverse slate of the imprint’s adventurous creators in 14 different programs—including many alumni, and quite a few who make exciting BAM debuts in the 2014 Next Wave.

The range is astonishing. It includes artists who have revolutionized the contemporary classical canon, or have expanded it in ingenious ways. Those based in idioms like jazz, folk, and bluegrass who have honed remarkably distinct voices. International stars reaching passionate new audiences. And rock icons crafting fresh collaborations while reminding us of why they’re so popular to begin with.

We salute Nonesuch on this milestone, and thank its president, Bob Hurwitz, for working with BAM to bring you this terrific lineup of intrepid musical artists.

Sincerely,

Karen Brooks Hopkins Joseph V. Melillo Nonesuch Records at BAM

NONESUCH RECORDS AT BAM Greetings BAM started the Next Wave Festival in 1983, a year before I got to Nonesuch. One day, out of the blue, Harvey Lichtenstein, the head of BAM, called my office at ECM Records, where I worked at that time, and insisted that I go that night to see a new show he was producing, The Gospel at Colonus. I dutifully changed my plans that night and saw the show—when Harvey called you had to take it seriously! And he was right—the next morning I called Mo Ostin, the head of our parent company, Warner Bros. Records, and strongly urged WB to record Gospel (which they ultimately did). Around the same time, I heard John Adams’ music for the first time, and immediately called Harvey, who once again insisted I messenger a tape of John’s music to him that afternoon. Three years later, BAM was one of the co-producers of Nixon in China, John’s first opera, and we made the recording during the BAM run.

The first month I was at Nonesuch BAM premiered Steve Reich’s Desert Music at the Next Wave Festival; a day after the run we recorded the piece. In 1983 we witnessed the brilliant production of Philip Glass’ Satyagraha at BAM; the following year, we began working with Phil and BAM mounted an unforgettable production of Einstein on the Beach. A decade before we started working with Laurie Anderson, BAM presented one of her greatest achievements, United States: Parts I—IV . When we started working with the Kronos Quartet, BAM stepped in and became their home for many years. I remember going out to SUNY Purchase with Joe Melillo and John Adams to see Peter Sellars’ Così fan tutti in the mid-80s, as we began together to plan the recording of Nixon in China. And David Bither, my colleague at Nonesuch who has brought so many wonderful artists and projects to the label, started his career at BAM, working at a desk right by another BAM newcomer, Karen Brooks Hopkins, now of course the president of BAM.

Our relationship with BAM has been deeply meaningful for all of us at Nonesuch. We are all grateful for the creativity, vision, hard work, and perseverance of Karen Brooks Hopkins and Executive Producer Joe Melillo in putting together this amazing series as well as for being so supportive to the creative community for the last three decades.

Best,

Bob Hurwitz President, Nonesuch Records BAM Next Wave 2014 #NonesuchBAM

Cover Artist

Robert Diago Known for interweaving elements of his Afro-Cuban roots and involvement with the Abakua (a religious male secret society), Roberto Diago addresses issues of race, slavery, and religion in his artwork. He figuratively incorporates both historical and contemporary references through a variety of materials such as canvas, bamboo, and recycled materials in collages. The use of text and religious symbols brings subjects of the past to the present day.

Diago graduated from the Academia de Artes Plásticas San Alejandro, Havana in 1990 and is a member of the Unión de Escritores y Artistas de Cuba (UNEAC). He has exhibited internationally and most recently particpated in the 2012 Havana Bienal, Queloides at the Mattress Factory, Harvard University, and The 8th Floor. He was awarded the Juan Francisco Elso Prize by the National Fine Arts Museum, Cuba.
