1 | Grandtheater.Org 1 | GRANDTHEATER.ORG WELCOME BACK! A year ago, it could be overwhelming at times thinking about all the incredible challenges our industry was facing amid the pandemic. As we “pivoted” time and again, developing new ways to continue to live our mission, it became clear to me that we would get through it if we focused primarily on two things: preserving our organization and serving our community. For the last year, a piece of paper with those two objectives has been taped to my laptop, so I see it every day and remind myself of the two things we need to focus on as an organization. I’m proud to say that because of our amazing team and your support, I feel as though we’ve done both successfully over the last year. All of you have certainly helped us meet the first objective—over 1,000 of you have donated to our Ghost Light Fund, allowing us to keep the organization and our historic theater up and running. We absolutely cannot thank you enough, as again you’ve shown your incredible dedication to and support for The Grand. We’ve worked hard to meet, and I believe exceed, the second objective, providing over 80 programs in various formats, reaching an incredible 70,000 patrons across 25 states! Some of these programs have been so successful that we’ll continue them moving forward and we hope that you will continue to enjoy them. As proud as I am of the work we’ve done over the last year, nothing compares with sharing live experiences together at The Grand. As we unveil this 21/22 season, our intention is that we will deliver all these performances as scheduled, but we will certainly be adaptable and focused on the well-being of all of you, along with our staff, volunteers, and artists. Our COVID-19 Ticket Guarantee (which you can read more about on the next page) will provide you unprecedented flexibility with your tickets, so that you can purchase tickets with peace of mind. We are so excited to share this season with all of you—we have amazing Broadway hits like Waitress, Beautiful, Fiddler on the Roof and more, plus international blockbusters Riverdance and Blue Man Group, as well as great music, dance, comedy, family fun and so much more! I’ve always closed this message by saying the same thing—we are grateful for your support and we look forward to seeing you at The Grand—and this year, that is truer than ever. Instead, I will say that we are humbled and grateful for your incredible support over the past year and we absolutely can’t wait to see you back at The Grand!

  • The Frothy Band at Imminent Brewery, Northfield Minnesota on April 7Th, 7- 10 Pm
    April Irish Music & 2018 Márt Dance Association Márta The mission of the Irish Music and Dance Association is to support and promote Irish music, dance, and other cultural traditions to insure their continuation. Inside this issue: IMDA Recognizes Dancers 2 Educational Grants Available Thanks You 6 For Irish Music and Dance Students Open Mic Night 7 The Irish Music and Dance Association (IMDA) would like to lend a hand to students of Irish music, dance or cultural pursuits. We’re looking for students who have already made a significant commitment to their studies, and who could use some help to get to the next level. It may be that students are ready to improve their skills (like fiddler and teacher Mary Vanorny who used her grant to study Sligo-style fiddling with Brian Conway at the Portal Irish Music Week) or it may be a student who wants to attend a special class (like Irish dancer Annie Wier who traveled to Boston for the Riverdance Academy). These are examples of great reasons to apply for an IMDA Educational Grant – as these students did in 2017. 2018 will be the twelfth year of this program, with help extended to 43 musicians, dancers, language students and artists over the years. The applicant may use the grant in any way that furthers his or her study – help with the purchase of an instrument, tuition to a workshop or class, travel expenses – the options are endless. Previous grant recipients have included musicians, dancers, Irish language students and a costume designer, but the program is open to students of other traditional Irish arts as well.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

The program begins with Devoted, a commissioned work by the trend setting choreographic duo Cecilia Bengolea and François Chaignaud. Infused with current dance hall and pop culture, CCN-BALLET DE these French choreographers are clearly influenced by modern and even post-modern American dance history—history that was forever changed by Cunningham's impact. LORRAINE Fabrications, the second work on our program, actually had its world premiere right here at Northrop in 1987, with Cunningham dancing, as he did in every performance by his company until he was 70. When he died a few months after his 90th birthday, he Choreographer and General Director had won every choreographic award and accolade imaginable, PETTER JACOBSSON Christine Tschida.

Choreographer and Coordinator of Research Ronald Reagan was in his second term in the White House and had just struggled through a government THOMAS CALEY shutdown. News of the Iran-Contra Scandal had recently broken. Mad Cow Disease was discovered in the U.K., and the Minnesota Twins would go on to win their first World Series later that year.
