High Kicks Muscles flex, abs ripple and torsos glisten when the acrobats/gymnasts/dancers of DanceBrazil (right) leap, flip and defy gravity in their annual New York season.

What makes these guys and gals tick? Capoeira, Brazil’s traditional form of martial arts dance. Capoeira is gritty, graceful and all about the body and the extremes to which it can be pushed. It’s also about social interaction, power plays and one-upmanship.

This is aggressive, combative, streetwise choreography. Think of it as an adrenaline rush set to an African beat, then sit back, let the dancers do their incredible thing and enjoy. » Joyce Theater, 175 Eighth Ave., 212.242.0800, Mar. 19-24

Imagine Liza Minnelli at her most gamine, but with Joan Collins’ raven-haired sophistication, Joan Rivers’ brassy bawdiness and honors degrees in law, art and German. She dresses to kill, but can be as existential as Juliette Gréco.

Her song repertoire runs the gamut from Cole Porter to Kurt Weill to Radiohead to Laurie Anderson. For the record, her real name is Melissa Madden Gray. But call her that, and Meow Meow will bare her claws.

“Every element should be a harmonious part of the piece, whether it is serving to support it or just to visually fulfill it.”

–Peter Harrison

Take a Seat Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, as furniture designer and builder Peter Harrison’s contemporary interpretation (left) of Gerrit Rietveld’s classic 1934 zig-zag chair proves. “I wanted to make a version of the zig-zag chair using my signature joinery,” says Harrison, who is exhibiting at this month’s Architectural Digest Home Design Show. Each joint of the Zig Zag Redux, as he has named it, is machined from a solid block of aluminum and marks the chair as a Harrison original. Made of maple and finished in either red or black lacquer, the Zig Zag Redux is a piece of sculpture and an eminently practical dining or desk chair.

Blockbuster Even after almost 10 years on Broadway, Wicked (left) continues to defy gravity. For nine consecutive years, the musical prequel to The Wizard of Oz has been the highest-grossing production on the Great White Way. It holds the record, too, for the highest one-week gross, having taken in $2,947,172 at the box office for the week ending Dec. 30, 2012. To the accompaniment of the cash register’s ka-ching, honors also continue to pour in. The latest is proof positive that Wicked has become a national treasure: Designer Susan Hilferty’s Tony Award-winning costume for Elphaba (a.k.a. the Wicked Witch of the West) has been inducted in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C., where it is on display in the American Stories exhibition. » Wicked, Gershwin Theatre, 222 W. 51st St., 877.250.2929

Some may best know Blythe Danner as Isabelle “Izzy” Huffstodt in TV’s Huff (20042006). In the movies, she is familiar as Dina Byrnes in Meet the Parents (2000) and its two sequels. To yet more fans, she is the mother of Gwyneth Paltrow. But to live-theater aficionados, she is an incandescent Broadway star, who has appeared in a dozen productions, including her current role as Millicent Winter in the musical Nice Work If You Can Get It (below). “I think of Millicent as Auntie Mame,” says Danner, “but with a saucier, feistier edge.” She admits her stage career, which has taken her from Viola in Twelfth Night to Tracy Samantha Lord in The Philadelphia Story to Blanche Du Bois in A Streetcar Named Desire to Millicent, “is all over the place, which is how I like it. Theater is where I cut my teeth. It’s my first love and always will be. Before I go to the great beyond, I hope I keel over ‘on the boards’!” » Nice Work

INSIDE FINE ART GALLERY HASTED KRAEUTLER SARAH HASTED & JOSEPH KRAEUTLER

Owners of Hasted Kraeutler, a contemporary art gallery that is located in the heart of New York’s Chelsea art disctric. Sarah and Joseph share their favorite art works from the gallery’s current exhibitions with artist Erwin Olaf, from an upcoming exhibition with photographer Nick Brandt and from a previous exhibition with painter, Kim Dong Yoo.

Kim Dong Yoo Installation view

UPCOMING: PAOLO VENTURA & ERWIN OLAF

Erwin Olaf is an internationally known Dutch artist, his new photographs are currently on view at Hasted Kraeutler. The exhibition is premiering his new series to the world and is not to be missed. Following Olaf’s exhibition, Hasted Kraeutler will premier new works by Italian artist Paolo Ventura, where the artist will transform the gallery into a city, allowing viewers to literally step into one of his artworks.

NICK BRANDT Nick Brandt’s photographs feature stunning images of endangered African animals, which he photographs “in the same way I would a human being, watching for the right ‘pose’ that hopefully will best capture his or her spirit,” he says. Always “moving in close” he never uses a telephoto lens, because it is too impersonal.

Prices of the photographs start at $4,500. Hasted Kraeutler is open to the public Tuesday - Saturday, 11 am - 6 pm.

Back to Nature Some artists range far and wide for inspiration; others look no farther than their own backyard. Case in point: Jessica Bartlet, who depicts a former piece of Connecticut farmland, painted over four years, in Backyard Wilderness. A series of diptychs and triptychs, some of the landscapes are cheerful bucolic scenes, such as “Backyard Mid October” (left, 2012).

Others include a house or barn, comfortably coexisting with the vegetation. But in some, the structure is isolated or barely glimpsed— as if to say, nature invariably engulfs man’s efforts. » First Street Gallery, 526 W. 26th St., 646.336.8053, thru Mar. 23

Bump ‘n’ Grind

A gap-toothed skull fixes you with a “Death Stare.” A bikini-clad babe brandishes a pistol, the words Love Gun None stenciled above her. A multicolored motorbike roars down a tangerine road (“Thunder 66,” above, 2013).

Welcome to the Grindhouse, Australian artist Johnny Romeo’s homage to the world of exploitation movies, and all the things that make them great: sex, drugs, violence. The subject matter of this solo exhibit may be gritty, but the paintings are almost pretty, the panache of the pretty psychedelic palette and the broad brushstrokes (executed with a childlike energy) suggesting that Romeo’s tongue is firmly in cheek. Like a car crash, you just can’t look away. » Porter Contemporary, 548

For artist Joe Sorren, painting is “like hanging out with the most magnificent creatures, sometimes small, sometimes big … always W. 28th St., 212.696.7432, thru Mar. 30 fleeting.” His softly colored fantasies evolve slowly, “waiting to see what happens.” What happened with “The Overture” over three months in 2008 is at left: a fairy-tale scene, in which a redheaded belle, knee-deep in water, peels off her ball gown—paralleling the emergence of an umbrella-toting figure from a tree trunk nearby. The painting, along with other Sorren works both old and new, is on view in The Great Cantaloupe Day. » AFA, 54 Greene St., 212.226.7374, thru Mar. 31

Tying into Asia Week New York (Mar. 15-23), the Pier Antiques Show, that vernal riverside festival of collectibles, features a number of Eastern art experts, including The Ivory Tower, whose wares include this Satsuma jar (right, ca. 1900-10), a typical work

by Japanese artist Yabu Meizan. Known as The Master of Detail, Yabu used a single-hair brush to paint a serene lakeside (complete with Mt. Fuji in the background) and tiny, pretty figures: ladies in kimonos, kids learning calligraphy. It’s a bit anachronistic—early-20th-century Japan was already an industrialized, and increasingly militarized, power. But this jar, made for export to the West, depicts “how Westerners perceived Japan to be,“ says Ivory Tower Vice President Matthew Baer, “not necessarily the way it was.” » Pier Antiques Show, Pier 94, 12th Ave., at W. 55th St., 973.808.5015, Mar. 16-17

Fish Food Reminiscent of a dining cabin on a first-class oceangoing vessel—with porthole-shaped mirrors, weathered wood panels and custom-made tables and chairs by furniture company Recycled Brooklyn—Crave Fishbar may be rustic and cozy, but Chef Todd Mitgang’s creativity with seafood is refined and vast. His seasonal dinner menu includes globally influenced dishes, such as plancha-grilled golden tilefish (right) with pea puree, artichoke, romano beans, black barley and ras el hanout; and lobster with chue-chee curry, Thai apple eggplant, Japanese eggplant and fresh bamboo shoots. A highlight of the new lunch menu: sweet and fiery crab-and-shrimp cemita (a Mexican sandwich) with grilled pineapple and ancho chili puree. » Crave Fishbar, 954 Second Ave., 646.895.9585

… crab and shrimp sandwich with pineapple and ancho chili puree … grilled cauliflower steak over black riso … beef tendon salad Past a retail counter display of prosciutto di Parma, smoked speck, truffles, formaggi and other Italian delicacies, the dining room of Il Ristorante Rosi Parmacotto (left) seems like a movie set. So it comes as no surprise that the marble-tiled, red-and-creamy room was created by Dante Ferretti, the Oscar-winning production designer of films including Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007) and Hugo (2011). Surrounded by statues and frescoes that evoke ancient Rome, guests are treated to the robust Tuscan cuisine (pork and beef ravioli, grilled cauliflower steak over black riso) of Chef Cesare Casella, a colorful character who often works the room—shaking hands and greeting regular customers— with a bunch of rosemary sprigs in the breast pocket of his toque.

Simply Exotic A statue of the pot-bellied, elephant-headed Hindu deity Ganesha, revered as the lord of success and destroyer of evils and obstacles, sits atop a four-sided waterfall at the center of Qi Thai Grill (far right). His peaceful, optimistic aura fills the entire two-tiered, 4,000-square-foot former warehouse in which top Thai chefs Sripraphai Tipmanee and Pichet Ong are creating small plates and grilled dishes inspired by Thai street food. From palate-searing pork with red turmeric (near right) and pork ribs slathered with Ovaltine barbecue sauce to spicy beef tendon salad and sweet mango soft-shell crab, the cuisine is surprisingly uncomplicated. » Qi Thai Grill, 176 N. 9th St., Williamsburg, Brooklyn, 718.302.1499

Haute Height

Brisk March winds in NYC are a far cry from the warmth and tropical charm of Old Havana, with its picturesque palm trees, 1950s autos and clouds of cigar smoke rising over Caribbean cityscapes.

Havana Central, a restaurant and bar designed to emulate the island nation’s aesthetic, gives respite to the winter weary with a menu of hot drinks, from The Hot Cuban (below, a shot of traditional Cuban espresso, dark rum, coffee liqueur, whipped cream) to Latin Hot Chocolate with Rum (golden rum, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, sweet chocolate, brown sugar, red pepper).

Altitude and elegance converge high above the streets of Midtown East.

The venue may be called Upstairs at the Kimberly, but there are no stairs involved: An express elevator carries well-dressed patrons up 30 floors to a penthouse lounge enclosed by a retractable roof (below), adorned with a bronze bar and tufted banquettes.

From such great heights, one can take in views of the Chrysler Building while sipping on spirituous concoctions, such as The Chrysler (champagne, honey, lemon, lime). » Upstairs at the Kimberly, The Kimberly Hotel, Penthouse, 145 E. 50th St., 212.888.1220

History’s great minds—from writers and poets to politicians and prodigies—aren’t above indulging in alcohol’s alluring effects. Black Hound Bar & Lounge (left), a modern Battery Park City watering hole, reminds us of this tipsy truth with a menu of cocktails inspired by the boozy musings of noteworthy thinkers. The Moveable Feast (rye, Amaro Montenegro, Luxardo Fine) is paired with Ernest Hemingway’s quip— “Always do sober what you said you’d do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”—while Painting as a Pastime (vodka, pistachio syrup, ginger, lime) comes with an assurance from Winston Churchill that he has “taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of [him].” » Black Hound Bar & Lounge, 301 South End Ave., 212.945.0562

Tea Sipping to Tippling By day, the Two E Bar/Lounge is a subdued den of relaxation, serving light lunch amid an Art Deco bar and classic columns (above). It’s quite the location for an elaborate tea party (every Sun, thru Mar. 30, noon-5 p.m.), complete with “bottomless” champagne flutes and 18th-century period music (cue the harpischord and spinet, maestro). Once night falls, however, the joint transforms into an energetic hub for dancing and intrepid imbibing.

Whether championing social causes, building theaters, preserving landmarks or providing jobs, a roster of iconic, distinguished and influential New Yorkers have left the city gifts that keep on giving.

As special consultant for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in the 1970s and 1980s, Diana Vreeland (above) spread the gospel of fashion as art, mounting exhibits of couturiers such as Yves Saint-Laurent and his “Mondrian” dress (above, left).

New York City Center (far left) was recently restored to its original glossy, vaguely Moorish glory.

New York’s first public performing arts center, it was created in 1943 by Mayor Fiorello La Guardia (left, with entertainers Sophie Tucker and George Jessel).

In 1903, having moved uptown a year earlier, Macy’s Herald Square was well on its way to becoming “The Largest Store in the World.”

S

ome people are born New Yorkers. Others choose to be. But whether native or adoptive son or daughter, many a towering figure stands out for what he or she gave to this grand metropolis. Last month, New York lost one such luminary: Edward I. Koch (1924-2013), a three-term mayor whose blunt wit was emblematic of NYC style. With his passing on Feb. 1, he becomes the latest of the town’s human icons— larger-than-life figures who leave behind contributions that continue to educate, inspire or entertain today.

People the world over have heard of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (1929-1994). But many may not know of the influential role she played in saving several of the city’s architectural treasures, especially Grand Central Terminal (E. 42nd St., btw Lexington & Vanderbilt aves., 212.340.2583). In the mid-1970s, Onassis was living in the city when the Penn Central Railroad announced plans to build a glass-and-steel tower above Grand Central, effectively obliterating it. On hearing the news, she joined the Municipal Art Society of New York (MAS) to spearhead its campaign to protect the terminal and the landmarks law that shielded it. The former first lady astutely used her fame to generate publicity for the effort: “If we don’t care about our past, we cannot hope for our future,” she said at one press conference.

Ultimately, the case went to the United States Supreme Court, which upheld the landmarks law in 1978.

Onassis continued to help MAS preserve other historically significant structures, notably Lever House, a Modernist office building, and St. Bartholomew’s Church. But Grand Central re-

mained close to her heart: In the 1990s, she worked behind the scenes to obtain political and financial backing for the terminal’s $196 million restoration, recalls former Mass Transit Authority CEO Peter Stangl. Thanks to her, Grand Central lives on, and is currently celebrating its 100th birthday with the onsite exhibit Grand by Design (thru Mar. 15) and other festivities throughout the year. It continues to thrive as a bustling, Beaux Arts wonder, with dozens of shops and eateries, a gourmet food market and, of course, trains to whisk folks all over and out of the city.

Onassis is the subject of Jackie, a new play by Nobel Prize winner Elfriede Jelinek, at New York City Center (131 W. 55th

in December 1943, La Guardia personally conducted the New York Philharmonic in the national anthem.

In the ensuing decades, several local companies, including New York City Ballet and New York City Opera, were “born” at City Center; two of its stages are currently home to the Manhattan Theatre Club, whose production of The Madrid, starring Edie Falco, is playing through Apr. 21. Most of all, La Guardia envisioned the center as a place where the people of New York could “experience performances at reasonable prices, which is still our mission today,” says Arlene Shuler, president and CEO. For example, in 2004, she conceived the wildly popular annual “Fall for Dance” series, tickets for which cost only $10.

An icon of style, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (above) fought to preserve New York City’s landmark structures. One of the first buildings she helped to save, Grand Central Terminal (right) is celebrating its centennial this year.

Diana Vreeland (1903-1989) had never really worked before she accepted a columnist’s job at Harper’s Bazaar in 1936. She had, however, “dedicated hours and hours of very detailed time to my clothes”—and parlayed those hours into a decades- and styles-spanning reign as America’s most influential fashion arbiter, first at Bazaar and then as the editor-in-chief of Vogue. Vreeland believed passionately in the importance of fashion—as cultural history, worthy of study—and helped others believe in it, too, with the exhibitions she mounted as consultant for The Costume Institute of The Metropolitan Museum of Art (1000 Fifth Ave., 212.535.7710) in the 1970s and 1980s. With her dramatic presentations and juxtaposition of themes, her blockbuster shows “gave credence to costume as artistic expression,” says Kent State University Museum Director Jean Druesedow, who worked at the Institute during that period. It wasn’t easy at first.

Vreeland recalled in her memoir D.V. then-Metropolitan Museum Director Thomas Hoving’s outraged reaction to her plans for Hollywood Design, a 1974 display of film costumes: “‘In the name of God, Diana, why are we dragging Hollywood into the Metropolitan?’ I said, ‘Tom, I’ve been looking at French couture for the last 40 years, and I can tell you that I have never seen clothes made like these.’” Vreeland’s faith helped make possible multigenre exhibits, such as The Met’s current Impressionism, Fashion and Modernity (thru May 27), examining the crosspollination of couture and painting in mid-19th-century France.

Joseph Papp (1921-1991), founder of The Public Theater (425 Lafayette St., 212.539.8500), died more than 20 years ago, but his imprint on the American stage remains deep. A social activist who used the theater as his platform, Papp was among the first to cast African-Americans in white roles and women in male parts; in the process, “he changed what the actors looked

St., 212.581.1212, thru Mar. 31)—a lively, multistage performance space that owes its existence to an enterprising, musicloving mayor. Fiorello La Guardia (1882-1947) remains a giant in New York City lore—all 5 feet 2 inches of him. His name emblazons one of its airports and, during his 1934-1945 term in office, he was famed for both his crime- and corruption-busting activities and his efforts to improve citizens’ lives. Case in point: City Center. Built by the Shriners as a meeting place with a nearly 3,000-seat auditorium, the 1923 neo-Moorish edifice was slated for demolition after the organization defaulted on its mortgage. La Guardia figured the “Mecca Temple” would make a dandy home for the city’s first performing arts center. He devised a plan to seize the building for back taxes. When the refurbished venue reopened as the City Center for Music and Dance

Joseph Papp’s The Public Theater, housed in the old Astor Library, produces both Shakespearean and contemporary plays, often in avant-garde productions.

Not to mention what shows sounded like: In choosing Hair, The American Tribal Love-Rock Musical to be The Public’s debut production in its new home in 1967, Papp brought hippie counterculture to the stage, in a show featuring little story but plenty of sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll. Stars such as Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline and James Earl Jones, as well as playwrights such as David Mamet, had their careers launched in Public Theater productions.

The performance space now includes five theaters of varying sizes—the English-language premiere of Guillermo Calderón’s new play Neva (Mar. 1-31), is one of the main productions this month—and the cabaret Joe’s Pub. Following a $40 million revitalization of its 158-year-old building, the former Astor Library, The Public is now as inviting for drinks as for drama. A circular bar in the airy, open lobby offers snacks and beverages, and a new lounge on the mezzanine serves food until 2 a.m.

Every year, during the US Open, thousands of fans file past the bronze statue of three-time tennis Grand Slam winner and adopted New Yorker Arthur Ashe (1943-1993) at the south gate of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (Flushing

Meadows Corona Park, Queens, 718.760.6200), headed to Arthur Ashe Stadium, named in his honor. It was back in 1968 that Ashe became the first (and still only) male African-American to win the US Open, smashing tennis’ color barrier—a sweet moment for a man who’d grown up in segregated Richmond, Va., where the public parks’ courts were off-limits to blacks. Looking around the stands that day, says his widow, Jeanne Moutoussamy-Ashe, he recognized how far the sport had brought him and knew it could do the same for underprivileged youth. That year, he co-founded the National Junior Tennis League (NJTL).

“Arthur saw tennis as a metaphor for life,” says Moutoussamy-Ashe. “You are alone on one side of the net. You don’t have a coach or anyone telling you what to do; you must make decisions on your own.” Administered by the United States Tennis Association, the NJTL helps 250,000 children a year with free programs. Arthur Ashe Kids Day, which kicks off the Open each summer, is the program’s main fundraiser, scheduled for Aug. 25 this year. Until then, though, the public can get in some practice in the places where the pros play. The NTC’s 30 outdoor courts and 12 indoor courts are open, by advance reservation, from 6 a.m. to midnight daily.

Everyone should have a home office like that of John Pierpont Morgan (1837-1913): walls upholstered in red silk damask; a triple-height, coffered ceiling; windows embedded with stainedglass panels; and in the corner, a solid-steel, two-story vault.

Morgan spent his later years in the Italian Renaissance splendor of his study, which became known as the “uptown branch” of his Wall Street bank. “No one could really know Mr. Morgan at all unless he had seen him in the [study] ... because [it] expressed his concept of beauty,” said his son-in-law Herbert Satterlee.

At The Morgan Library & Museum (225 Madison Ave., 212.685.0008), visitors can get acquainted with J. Pierpont through his study, as well as the sumptuous library connected to it by a marble rotunda. Permanent exhibits, like that of ancient Babylonian artifacts in the North Room, reveal the man behind the money, augmented by special shows, such as the current Degas, Miss LaLa and the Cirque Fernando (thru May 12).

Morgan’s huge fortune, coupled with his varied interests, made him a voracious collector during his lifetime, and his will stated that his collections be “permanently available for the instruction and pleasure of the public.” While the institution bearing his name specializes in prints and manuscripts, his vast collection of jewels went to the American Museum of Natural History (Central Park West, at W. 79th St., 212.769.5100), which built the Morgan Memorial Hall of Gems to showcase them. They range from examples of pink morganite, a gemstone named for the financier, to the 563-carat blue sapphire, the “Star of India,” which Morgan himself donated to the museum in 1901.

Standard Oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller Sr. was at one time

the most hated man in America, due to his ruthless business tactics. But his son John D. Rockefeller Jr. (1874-1960) more than made up for it, becoming a local hero when he conceived and provided sole financing for Rockefeller Center (W. 48th to W. 51st sts., btw Fifth & Sixth aves.) in the 1930s. Stretching across 22 acres, the complex became the largest private construction

a final skate in at The Rink at Rockefeller Center (open thru Apr. 13), to patronize the underground arcade of shops and eateries, or to just enjoy the floral displays of Channel Gardens. Offering a bird’s-eye view of it all, as well as of the city Rockefeller endowed, is Top of the Rock (30 Rockefeller Plaza, 212.698.2000), a 70th-floor observation platform that evokes the upper decks of an opulent 1930s ocean liner.

Born in Nantucket, Rowland Hussey (R.H.) Macy (18221877) moved to New York in 1858 and opened a dry goods store at Sixth Ave. and 14th St., well north of the city’s main shopping district at the time. As the store grew, he gradually added specialty departments—then a new concept in retailing—and expanded into neighboring buildings. Macy also had a flair for

Eventually encompassing 19 buildings, Rockefeller Center is an Art Deco masterpiece in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.

marketing, introducing an in-store Santa Claus in 1862 and illuminated holiday window displays six years later.

After Macy’s death, Nathan and Isidor Strauss bought out his heirs and, in 1902, moved to the current Beaux Arts flagship, Macy’s Herald Square (Broadway, at W. 34th St., 212.695.4400).

By 1924, it covered one million square feet, becoming “The Largest Store in the World.” Today, the department store grande dame still follows R.H.’s principles. It’s now in the midst of a $400 million, multiyear redesign, adding or expanding departments, such as a snazzy second-floor women’s shoe section. And, of course, it continues its special events, such as the annual Flower Show that bedecks the entire ground floor with blooms; this year’s edition, The Painted Garden, runs Mar. 24-Apr. 7.

Although these iconic citizens are gone, New York is richer for the causes they championed, the gifts they bestowed, the buildings they built. On any given day, in any given place, their living legacy retains the power to delight and amaze.

It’s key that the beat goes on in a way to get you humming, dancing or just listening.

Some tricks of the acoustical trade.

SOUND Check CHECK New York is arguably one of the greatest cities in the world for music lovers, with a variety that satisfies all tastes and demands. But while aficionados are attuned to aural perfection, most of us don’t stop to think about what creating a stellar music experience involves, be it an earsplitting rock band in a shabby-chic Lower East Side club or a throbbing ballad in a Broadway show. Even so, “the proper volume for the size or type of venue is essential,” says Grammy Award-winning mixing engineer Jason Goldstein, whose clients have ranged from The Roots to Beyoncé to Jay-Z. “I don’t want my beer bottle vibrating off the table during an acoustic set. Louder is not better—louder is just more.”

One of NYC’s most historic musical venues is the Hammerstein Ballroom (311 W. 34th St., 800.745.3000), set within the Manhattan Center complex, which also includes recording studios and another theater, the Grand Ballroom. Impresario Oscar Hammerstein opened the ornate, balconied 12,000-square-foot-space as the Manhattan Opera House in 1906. While it may seem strange to have a Belle Époque theater hosting rock and techno acts such as Jane’s Addiction, Amon Tobin and, on Mar. 22, Slightly Stoopid—not to mention TV broadcasts like Hip Hop Honors—“the old-school architecture was built with big shows in mind, so the sound carries very well. There is great coverage,” says Manhattan Center Production Manager Peter Auslan. Nevertheless, to accommodate contemporary tones, “we’re wired for the 21st century; every-

thing is digitally interconnected between the venues, the recording studios and the TV studios.” In fact, though some artists bring in their own gear, many love to play the Hammerstein precisely for the venue’s in-house Nexo Array Line System, which is prized for sonic versatility. “Its very clear and transparent sound makes it great for rock and hip-hop,” Auslan explains.

Perhaps no place has represented the new, changing face of the Downtown scene as much as Pianos (158 Ludlow St., 212.505.3733), a 10-year-old venue that’s one of the go-to stops for bright young indie things on tour. The place exudes an energetic vibe, due in no small part to its larger-than-life sound. The secret: “We use a system suited to a room three times Pianos’ size, with big subs, so we can really push the volume,” Talent Buyer Billy Jones explains. “But we have the most pro engineers who can also keep sound crystal clear” while an artist is performing.

Because it relies on aural impact to inspire movement, dance music should ideally be a source of sonic innovation. But when DJ Nicolas Matar opened Cielo (18 Little W. 12th St., 212.645.5700) in 2002, he flew in the face of a somewhat stagnant NYC dance scene by offering a groundbreaking, genre-hopping musical program. Matar turned to U.K. audio pioneers Funktion One to create a IN New YORK | march 2013 | innewyork.com

0313_IN_F_Music_SHIPPED.indd 29

sound system (the first of its kind in America) renowned for its “holistic” approach to sound design, which emphasizes total system integrity—that is, each speaker has a specifically tailored room response. The club also installed foam tubing, fashioned precisely to maximize Funktion One’s effectiveness. A decade later, the still-innovative system attracts superstar DJ talents such as Roger Sanchez and Sander Kleinenberg, who keep the clientele of nightowl audiophiles gyrating into the wee hours.

While it is as iconic as Cielo is iconoclastic, veteran jazz club Birdland (315 W. 44th St., 212.581.3080) is also beloved among performers, from the Cedar Walton Trio (Mar. 5-9) to the Tomasz Stanko New Quartet (Mar. 2830), for its excellent acoustics and sensitivities to musicians’ needs. “In some venues, a performer seems to ‘cut out’ if he steps away from the microphone,” explains Director of Programming Ryan Paternite. At Birdland, however, “the room and sound system are designed so that the music not only is loud enough to be heard clearly, but also to create the feeling that the performers are controlling the dynamics from the stage.” At other jazz clubs, acoustical necessity is the mother of invention. When Sal Perrillo took over a long-abandoned garage-turned-speakeasyturned-theater to create an eatery with live music, he had to redo the entire interior, including the basement, which echoed with rumblings from the nearby subway. The acoustics improved enormously, but since you can’t fight City Hall (or its transit authority), Garage Restaurant and Café (99 Seventh Ave. So., 212.645.0600) focuses on orchestras and ensembles more than individual vocalists: “The space is better for instrumentals,” Perrillo says.

Celebrating syncopation in all its forms for 25 years, Jazz at Lincoln Center (Time Warner Center, Broadway, at W. 60th St., 212.721.6500) oversees several acoustical gems, including Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola supper club and the amphitheaterlike Allen Room. But when its largest performing space, the Rose Theater, opened in 2004, it was a technical revelation. As JALC Managing and Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis is keen to point out, it was the first major hall tailored not to symphonic orchestras but to the unique acoustic demands of jazz musicians

(think: less echo, more warmth; intimacy, not isolation, between performers and spectators). It is the only fully acoustically floated concert hall in New York City, unencumbered by rigid connections between floors, walls and ceilings to the rest of the building—and thus shielded from noise and vibration. “At the back sides of the room, the angles of the wall slant inward, helping reflect sound to the audience,” explains the theater’s sound designer, Sam Berkow. This month, those sounds include a concert Celebrating Dizzy Gillespie (Mar. 8-9).

A lot of cabaret tends toward the nostalgic these days, but the cozy subterranean nightclub 54 Below (254 W. 54th St, 646.476.3551) is a very 21st-century affair. It marries a distinctly postmodern pastiche glamour (ornate ceilings, lavish brocade walls and sexy lighting) with innovative sound quality. Indeed, as Head of Audio Kris Umezawa enthuses of the club’s cutting-edge system, “the Avid SC48 console with Waves Horizon plug-in package gives us a huge sonic palette to draw from. The musicians are all excited by how ‘live’ the room sounds.” Custom diffusion panels with stretched fabric are used throughout the basement space to block noise from nearby subways, allowing for an excitingly intimate exchange between the audiences and the entertainers of Broadway and opera pedigree, including Bebe Neuwirth (Mar. 18-23) and Patricia Racette (Mar. 26-30).

A ‘live’ or natural sound is also the aim of most Broadway musicals, which demand that both music and lyrics come across with equal punch. The show Once (Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre, 242 W. 45th St., 212.239.6200), based on the film of the same name, won eight 2012 Tony Awards, including one for Best Sound Design. Clive Goodwin, the man primarily responsible for that honor, recalls the unique demands of engineering the show’s neo-folky score. The theater’s plush seating and carpeting downstairs kept the songs from irritating reverberation, “but upstairs, with large expanses of bare wall and ceiling, presented a challenge.” One trick: using tiny, swablike DPA 4060 body mikes, hidden within the actors’ hair or beards.

Their crystal-clear amplification made “a thousand-seat house feel intimate, as if the performers were just a few feet from audience members”—regardless of the location of their seats.

It can be said that if a venue has great sound, listeners will never notice it. It simply allows them to have a peak interaction with the music—whether it’s heart-poundingly loud, lyrically soft or something in between.

Attracting boppers since 1949, Birdland ensures that vocalists such as Kurt Elling sound in control of their sound.

Once tries to make audience members feel that the musical’s leads, Steve Kazee and Cristin Milioti, are singing directly to them.

At 54 Below, an intimate cabaret, the aim is to make the vocalists and performers sound “live”—that is, natural and vibrant.

Though originally built for opera singers, nowadays the Hammerstein Ballroom gives great sound to rock and techno acts.

Dream Downtown

An “Only in New York Day” Perfecting plans for travelers is one of Tom Bell’s responsibilities as a concierge at the Dream Downtown. We decided to turn the tables, and let him design his own dream of a New York day. It’s a whirlwind of culture and cuisine, and he invites you to join him. To start off, “you’ll need a little pep in your step, so try a macchiato at Ninth Street Espresso, a destination in Chelsea for the coffee connoisseur. Then, shoot uptown to the Museum of Modern Art,” where the Abstract Expressionist collection is his favorite. Once you’ve worked up a hearty appetite, “head to Carnegie Deli and enjoy a hot pastrami sandwich.” By now, you’re in the Theater District. “Don’t be late for your Broadway matinee performance of The Book of Mormon. Then walk a few blocks up to Bergdorf Goodman and splurge on a designer outfit or just window-shop—the choice is yours.” At nightfall, it’s time to discover New York’s unparalleled restaurants.

Tom recommends “Marea, for a transcendent dining experience. Order the caramelle, an amazing creation of short rib ravioli, red wine sugo, celery root and TIPS FROM: foie gras emulsion.” The missing puzzle piece?

Tom Bell, Concierge, Dream A nightcap. “Bemelmans Bar in The Carlyle, A Downtown, Rosewood Hotel, has it all: old-world charm, live 355 W. 16th St., 212.229.2559 piano music.
