Etudes For Piano by Philip Glass © Dunvagen Music Publishers Inc. Used by Permission. Philip Glass is managed and published by Dunvagen Music Publishers, Inc.
A NOTE FROM PHILIP GLASS The 20 etudes for piano were composed during the years from 1991 to 2012. Their final configuration into Book 1 and Book 2 was determined by the music itself in the course of its composition. Taken together, the Complete Piano Etudes suggest a real trajectory that includes a broad range of music and technical ideas. It is almost like a self-portrait in a way, which I hadn’t originally intended, and yet, it was unavoidable. Over time, the Etudes have been performed by pianists all over the world, used across new mediums from Dance choreography to Film and TV, and recorded many times over. I am grateful to all who use their personal efforts and generosity in bringing their voice and interpretation to these works, through performance, movement, and vision, that are so meaningful to me.

A NOTE FROM POMEGRANATE ARTS If I’m to be remembered for anything, it will be for the piano music, because people can play it. —PHILIP GLASS
The piano etudes are Philip Glass’s most personal body of work. Conceiving them as a collection of twenty pieces, Philip began composing them in the early 1990s as a method to develop his own craft and expand his technique as a pianist. The twentieth etude was completed in 2012, more than two decades later. A self-portrait of a composer’s work and practice, for us the complete etudes represent some of his most evocative and inventive music. For over 30 years, we have worked alongside Philip as producers of his live touring work. We have had the privilege of witnessing the evolution of the etudes over time and have secured commissioning and performance opportunities for Philip that ensured their completion. The etudes are now the most performed and recorded of Philip’s works and have become a staple of the contemporary classical repertoire. They have been played on the world’s stages by pianists working in diverse genres, arranged for countless instruments and chamber ensembles, and set to dance by prominent choreographers. Beloved by the world’s great musicians and amateurs alike, the etudes have become an integral part of daily practice for artists of all abilities and mediums, as they were originally intended. This program features newly commissioned works by choreographers spanning generations and genres accompanied live by longtime interpreter Maki Namekawa along with a more recent introduction, Noé Kains, who performs Etude #13 with the tap choreography of Leonardo Sandoval. Originally produced by Pomegranate Arts for Philip Glass’s 85th birthday, Dancing with Glass was first performed at Kaatsbaan Cultural Park in Tivoli, NY in September 2022. This unique program also celebrates the release of a special box set edition of Philip Glass: The Complete Etudes (Artisan), which includes twenty individual newly engraved folios of music and Studies in Time, a collection of newly commissioned writings by artists, composers, writers, and thinkers. It was inspired by the many anecdotes of artists who use Philip’s music as an inspiration and engine fueling their own process. Taking the Glass etudes as their prompt, our Studies in Time contributors, including choreographers Justin Peck and Lucinda Childs, offer the reader a kaleidoscopic look at the creative process – sharing musings on an artist’s personal practice, the relationship to a technical challenge over a lifetime, the act of listening, and, in some cases, their collaborations with the composer himself. Still in the wake of the COVID pandemic, we are rebounding from this lost time in history, discovering its long-term ramifications as we move forward. For many artists, the isolation of the pandemic forced a period of deep reflection and provided an opportunity to revisit the very foundations of their practice. And for many enthusiasts, the pandemic allowed the time to pursue a course of personal study that may or may not be carried forward and developed in the years to come. Evoking the generosity of spirit that has been at the heart of the composer’s life, The Glass Etudes offer an invitation to listen deeply and experience the inner life of an artist at work. We hope that it will inspire your own lifetime of practice. —Linda Brumbach and Alisa E. Regas Creative and Executive Producers

ABOUT THE JOYCE THEATER FOUNDATION The Joyce Theater Foundation ("The Joyce," Executive Director, Linda Shelton), a nonprofit organization, has proudly served the dance community for more than four decades. Under the direction of founders Cora Cahan and Eliot Feld, Ballet Tech Foundation acquired and The Joyce renovated the Elgin Theater in Chelsea. Opening as The Joyce Theater in 1982, it was named in honor of Joyce Mertz, beloved daughter of LuEsther T. Mertz. It was LuEsther’s clear, undaunted vision and abundant generosity that made it imaginable and ultimately possible to build the theater. Ownership was secured by The Joyce in 2015. The theater is one of the only theaters built by dancers for dance and has provided an intimate and elegant home for over 475 U.S.-based and international companies. The Joyce has also expanded its reach beyond its Chelsea home through off-site presentations at venues ranging in scope from Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater, to Brooklyn’s Invisible Dog Art Center, and to outdoor programming in spaces such as Hudson River Park. To further support the creation of new work, The Joyce maintains longstanding commissioning and residency programs. Local students and teachers (1st–12th grade) benefit from its school program, and family and adult audiences get closer to dance with access to artists. The Joyce’s annual season of about 48 weeks of dance now includes over 300 performances for audiences of over 100,000. Visit Joyce.org for more information.
FUNDERS Many Thanks to The Joyce's Institutional Funders for Keeping Us Moving Forward An abundance of gratitude to Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Representative Jerrold Nadler, and Representative Nydia M. Velázquez for their visionary leadership that established the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant program, which made the reopening of The Joyce Theater in 2021 and the reemergence of many dance companies possible.

ABOUT THE JOYCE THEATER FOUNDATION VISION STATEMENT
LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The Joyce Theater Foundation is committed to fostering and supporting a diverse and inclusive environment, both on and off stage. We embrace and celebrate diversity in all its forms, and value the rich experiences and perspectives that arise from differences in race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religion, age, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and cognitive and physical ability.
The Joyce Theater operates on the Lenape island of Manhahtaan (Mannahatta) and acknowledges that it was founded upon the stolen land and erasure of many Indigenous communities. This acknowledgement demonstrates our institution’s commitment to the process of dismantling the legacies of colonialism and cultural imperialism.
We strive to counteract the social injustices and racism that exist within our communities, our nation, and our world. Our aim as an organization is to embody the principles of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice. To achieve this, we will: • Create and implement proactive diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice initiatives; • Establish and maintain a culture of safe sharing, intentional listening, learning, and growth;
We acknowledge the ongoing violence towards Indigenous people through systemic inequality. We pay our respect to the Indigenous peoples who lived and continue to live upon this land, and whose rich history, artistic practices, and spirituality are tied to this land. It is within our responsibility as a cultural institution and our commitment to diversity and inclusion to embody a commitment to Indigenous rights and cultural equity.
• Engage with and support disenfranchised communities by sharing information and resources and ensuring accessibility;
We sincerely invite you as an audience member to take a moment to reflect on the history and legacy of displacement, migration, and settlement.
• Develop metrics and conduct regular reviews of our programs and policies to hold ourselves accountable and shift as neededs.
It is our intention to work with local Native American arts councils to better inform our land acknowledgment practices and anticipate that it will evolve over time.
With these goals in place and our Vision Statement in mind, we are dedicated to the continued learning and growth needed to foster an inclusive environment for all. This is an ongoing process and by nature will be an evolving statement.
