WFIU’s featured performer for April is jazz pianist and educator Monika Herzig.

Born in Germany, Herzig came to the United States in 1988 on a one-year scholarship to the University of Alabama. She earned her doctorate in music education and jazz studies at Indiana University, where she is now an Arts Administration faculty member.

Her eight CDs include Imagine, a collaboration with Indiana Poet Laureate Norbert Krapf. Herzig’s most recent release on Owl Records, Come With Me, includes a DVD documentary about her. Her recordings include material from classic American songbook composers such as Hoagy Carmichael and Cole Porter, pop-rock artists such as John Lennon, and Herzig’s own compositions.

As the editor and primary author of the recent Indiana University Press book David Baker: a Legacy in Music, Herzig documented the life and career of the head of Indiana University’s jazz studies department.

She frequently presents lectures and musical demonstrations that Monika Herzig and David Baker focus on the history of jazz in Indiana, as well as the role of women in jazz history.

Herzig has performed at jazz clubs and festivals around the United States, including the Indy Jazz Fest, the W. C. Handy Festival, Louisville’s Jazz Factory, and the IU Art Museum’s Jazz in July series. She has also led groups in performance in Germany, Italy, and Japan. Groups under her leadership have toured Germany, Italy, Japan, and opened for acts such as Tower of Power, Yes, Sting, and the Dixie Dregs.

WFIU will feature music performed by Monika Herzig throughout the month of April on David Brent Johnson’s weekday afternoon program Just You and Me. Herzig will be a guest on the program on Monday, April 2.

WFIU has received several questions on opera start times that we’d like to address.

Generally the Metropolitan Opera Saturday broadcasts begin at 1 p.m. When an opera begins early, the Met sometimes makes available a delayed feed, so stations nationwide can carry it later without preempting any programs that begin prior to 1 p.m.

Other times, though, the opera starts early—sometimes significantly early, as with the 11 a.m. start times on April 21 and 28—and every station that airs the Met, including WFIU, contractually must run the program live and in its entirety.

Several stations across the country are working with the Metropolitan Opera to improve this service. If you have any suggestions, please send an e-mail to: wfiu@indiana.edu.

Featured Contemporary Composer

Deep River: The African American Choral Spiritual

Center Stage from Wolf Trap

WFIU’s featured contemporary composer for the month of April is Nancy Van de Vate.

Wednesday, April 18, 7 p.m.

Center Stage from Wolf Trap showcases performances from some of today’s finest chamber musicians. Each program includes unscripted conversation between veteran broadcaster and musician Rich Kleinfeldt and composer-conductor Bill McGlaughlin.

The April 12th program features a performance by IU Distinguished Professor of Music Menahem Pressler. The April 19th program includes a performance of Circus, a work for brass quintet by IU alumnus Clint Needham.

From the days of slavery 150 years ago, the African American spiritual grew out of the earliest days of Black America.

Spirituals became the foundation of a genre of choral music that was sung and developed in black churches, and over time, spread across denominations, cultures, and concert venues across the country and around the world. Many of us have heard this music without being aware of how deep the meaning and history run beneath the surface.

Join us for this special radio program produced in partnership with the African American Arts Institute and supported in part by IU’s ArtsWeek Everywhere.

Deep River: The African American Choral Spiritual is hosted by Ross Gay, a poet and instructor in IU’s Creative Writing Program. His guest is IU Emeritus Professor James E. Mumford—performer, composer, educator, and director of IU’s African American Choral Ensemble for more than two decades.

Nancy Van de Vate

Born in the United States and now living permanently in Vienna, Van de Vate is a dedicated advocate for female composers.

She founded the International League of Women Composers and established the annual Nancy Van de Vate International Composition Prize for Opera, which awards cash and professional publication awards to a female composer. With her late husband, Clyde Smith, she founded Vienna Modern Masters, a label that promotes the inclusion of works by women composers.

Van de Vate is known for her largescale operatic works, such as All Quiet on the Western Front and Where the Cross is Made, which have been staged in the United States and Europe to critical acclaim.

Her twenty-six orchestral works include Chernobyl, which has been performed in Vienna, Hamburg, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, and in the United States at the Chautauqua Festival and by the Portland (Maine) Symphony Orchestra. It was also part of a special commemorative concert in 2006 to mark the 20th anniversary of the nuclear accident in Ukraine.

Widely respected as a juror, she has been a nominator for the Kyoto Prize in Music since its inception twenty years ago. Van de Vate has been a faculty member at eleven colleges and universities in the United States, and at the Jakarta Conservatory in Indonesia. She currently teaches music composition at the Institute for European Studies in Vienna.

WFIU will feature works by Nancy Van de Vate throughout the month of April.

Thursdays at 10 p.m.

During Dr. Mumford’s tenure as director, the ensemble premiered several of his original compositions, including Sojourner Truth: Choral Portraits. Others, including Black Nativity and Ebon-One, have gained recognition through television presentations.

The Litigators by John Grisham Airs: March 29 to April 27 Attorneys Oscar Finley and Wally Figg are partners in a two-bit law firm in search of their big break; ambulance chasers who have been in the trenches much too long making way too little.

Their specialties are quickie divorces and DUIs, with the occasional jackpot of an actual car wreck thrown in. After twenty-plus years together, they bicker like an old married couple but somehow continue to scratch out a half-decent living from their seedy bungalow offices in southwest Chicago.

One day David Zinc, a young but already burned-out attorney, finds himself in the employ of Finley & Figg. With their new associate on board, F & F is ready to tackle a case that could make them rich without requiring them to actually practice much law.

A popular cholesterol-reducing drug has come under fire after several patients taking it have suffered heart attacks, and Figg smells money. A little online research confirms Figg’s suspicions—a huge plaintiffs’ firm in Florida is putting together a class action suit against Varrick.

All Finley & Figg has to do is find a handful of people who have had heart attacks while taking the drug, convince them to become clients, join the class action, and ride along to fame and fortune.

With any luck, they won’t even have to enter a courtroom. It seems too good to be true. And it is.

The Litigators is an entertaining romp, filled with the kind of courtroom strategies, theatrics, and suspense that have made John Grisham America’s favorite storyteller.

Q&A with Jay Hunter Morris On Saturday, April 21st at 11 a.m., WFIU airs the Metropolitan Opera’s new production of Wagner’s Siegfried. Part three of the Ring cycle follows the journey of Siegfried from naïve fearless boy to supreme hero. Siegfried is sung by Jay Hunter Morris, here interviewed by the Met’s Charles Sheek.

Siegfried is notorious as one of the hardest roles for a tenor. What are the musical challenges?

On a scale from one to 10 Siegfried is a 10 and Götterdämmerung is a 9. They’re both very long evenings with a big orchestra and a lot of big moments. For me the challenge is to sing with my most beautiful sound and to not get knocked off balance by the intensity of the drama.

How do you see the character developing from one opera to the next?

A significant amount of time passes between the end of Siegfried and the beginning of Götterdämmerung.

Brünnhilde finally says, “I’ve taught you everything and I understand that you

have to go out and see the rest of the world.” He is eager to go and see what’s out there.

After he leaves Brünnhilde, everyone always talks about his betrayal and how he has forgotten her and their love, but the truth is that he was drugged! I feel like Siegfried’s innocence is still intact because he is not a willing participant in that betrayal. That’s why his death scene is so poignant for me.

You’ll be reuniting with Deborah Voigt. Tell me about working with her.

I think Debbie and I are from the same tribe. When we did Siegfried, she looked me in the face and we both knew.

It was very easy to sing those scenes with her. I feel so fortunate to sing with Debbie Voigt and share the stage with her. She makes me better, she makes me more relaxed. Believe me, that’s not always the case!

You’re singing Siegfried and Götterdämmerung back to back. Does that change the way you approach a performance?

Jay Hunter Morris as the title character in the Met’s new production of Siegfried

From the first note to the last, I sing every note as best I can. That’s what happened with Siegfried—I felt strong at the end because I was cognizant of what I was doing from the start. A lot of people are saying I’m just beginning to burst onto the scene, but let me tell you, I’ve been working toward this moment for twenty years!

April Taxes & Topics It’s April and there are two things one can’t ignore: taxes are due and the noise from the political campaign is becoming relentless.

WFIU offers two kinds of relief: good, solid news and information on the political candidates, and a source of tax relief for those who planned wisely in 2011.

If filling out those pesky 1040 forms gives you pause, consider planning a gift now to WFIU during 2012. You will be better prepared for a charitable deduction that may make your taxes more palatable next year—and make you feel good for supporting WFIU. Keep WFIU in mind for a state tax credit too. Because WFIU is part of Indiana University, you can claim up to $200 of a $400 gift as a tax credit—if you file jointly; and $100 in credit on a $200 gift if filing singly.

That credit comes right off the top of what you may owe in state taxes. It is money back in your pocket. Look for Form CC40.

Of course, it is always wise to consult your financial advisor on such matters. To discuss ways of making a tax-advantaged gift to WFIU, contact Nancy Krueger at (812) 855-2935 or nkrueger@ indiana.edu. Additional information on other ways to make a gift can also be found at wfiu.org/support.

As for the presidential campaigns, while WFIU can’t determine the outcome of the primary nomination for you, we can provide sound news coverage on the local and the national level. Information that allows you to make informed decisions. Stay tuned and stay informed.

This month on WTIU television.

America Revealed Wednesdays at 10 p.m.

This four-part series reveals a nation of interdependent networks that feed and power the nation, produce millions of goods, and transport people great distances to make America work. These networks rely on precisely calibrated systems, yet most Americans have never had the chance to observe or understand them—until now.

Food Machine April 11 Over the past century, an American industrial revolution gave rise to the biggest food machine the world has ever known, which feeds nearly 300 million Americans every day. Discover engineering marvels created by putting nature to work, and consider the toll our insatiable appetites take on our health and environment.

Nation on the Move April 18 America is a nation of vast distances and dense urban clusters, woven together by 200,000 miles of railroads, 5,000 airports, and four million miles of roads. These massive transportation systems make Americans the most mobile people on earth. Journey across the continent by air, road and rail, venturing behind the scenes with the workers who get us where we need to go.

Electric Nation April 25 Our modern electric power grid is perhaps the biggest machine in the world, delivering electricity over 200,000 miles of high-tension transmission lines. Travel around the country to understand its intricacies, its vulnerabilities, and the remarkable ingenuity required to keep the electricity on, every day of the year.

Made in the USA May 2 American manufacturing has undergone a massive revolution over the past two decades, becoming— gloomy perceptions to the contrary—the number-one manufacturing nation on Earth. Cross the country to look at traditional and not-so-traditional types of manufacturing.
