The Nile Project Where words fail, music speaks. 80 Anniversary th

statement.

To the musician-activists of The Nile Project, these five words, first spoken by Hans Christian Andersen, aren’t just food for thought—they’re a mission

Founded just a few years ago, The Nile Project brings together performers from the 11 African countries along the Nile River not just to play grooving multicultural music but also to send a political message: water is precious and scarce, and we must all band together to decide how best to use it. “Wherever a path can be found to help raise awareness of and find solutions to universal issues, it’s better to be there,” says Steven Sogo, a Burundian vocalist, bassist, guitarist and ikembe player. “We are using our music not only to entertain but also to educate.” More than 400 million people currently call the Nile River Basin home, and that population is set to double in the next 40 years, creating an ever-increasing demand for water in an area already facing water shortages. Through music and classroom education, the Nile Project hopes to propel Northeastern African politicians to join forces in fairly allocating the river’s resources. It’s a tough job, given the diversity of languages spoken, religions practiced and wealth—or lack thereof—in the region. “I feel so sorry to see how Africans don’t listen to each other,” Sogo says. “We are always limiting ourselves to

what we know and have, what is wrong. We don’t know what’s going on abroad in our neighboring countries.” Kenyan percussionist and vocalist Kasiva Mutua says she once had limited knowledge of other cultures—until she joined the Nile Project. “We have so much in common,” she says. “We discover so many similarities that I personally stop seeing Egyptians as Egyptians and Ugandans as Ugandans and so forth. I see them simply as Nile citizens.” Mutua says she hopes the Nile Project’s catchy, unique international beats are not just enjoyable but also thought-provoking for Boulder audiences. While not all Americans face a water crisis, plenty of other pressing issues demand that people of different beliefs unite for a common cause. “We hope that by watching how the music comes together from different countries into one solid sound, how the instruments interact with each other and how languages are sung into rhythms not of their own, inspires people to find ways of cooperating to come up with sustainable solutions,” she says. Sogo adds that even for those who aren’t politically inclined, the Nile Project’s performance promises to be memorable and enjoyable. “Everyone speaks the language of music,” he says. “You don’t need to understand the lyrics to shake your head or your whole body!” Thursday, Feb. 2, 7:30 p.m. | tickets start at $20

Biography

YO-YO MA — February 22, 2017

Yo-Yo Ma’s multi-faceted career is testament to his continual search for new ways to communicate with audiences, and to his personal desire for artistic growth and renewal. Whether performing new or familiar works from the cello repertoire, coming together with colleagues for chamber music or exploring cultures and musical forms outside the Western classical tradition, Mr. Ma strives to find connections that stimulate the imagination. Yo-Yo Ma maintains a balance between his engagements as soloist with orchestras throughout the world and his recital and chamber music activities. He draws inspiration from a wide circle of collaborators, creating programs with such artists as Emanuel Ax, Daniel Barenboim, Kayhan Kalhor, Ton Koopman, Yu Long, Edgar Meyer, Mark Morris, Cristina Pato, Kathryn Stott, Chris Thile, Michael Tilson Thomas, Wu Man, Wu Tong and Damian Woetzel. Each of these collaborations is fueled by the artists’ interactions, often extending the boundaries of a particular genre. One of Mr. Ma’s goals is the exploration of music as a means of communication and as a vehicle for the migration of ideas across a range of cultures throughout the world. To that end, he has taken time to immerse himself in subjects as diverse as native Chinese music with its distinctive instruments and the music of the Kalahari bush people in Africa. Expanding upon this interest, in 1998 Mr. Ma established Silkroad, a nonprofit organization that seeks to create meaningful change at the intersections of the arts, education and business. Under his artistic direction, Silkroad presents performances by the acclaimed Silk Road Ensemble and develops new music, cultural partnerships, education programs, and cross-disciplinary collaborations. Silkroad’s ongoing affiliation with Harvard University has made it possible to develop programs such as the Arts and Passion-Driven Learning Institute for educators and teaching artists, held in collaboration with the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and a new Cultural Entrepreneurship initiative in partnership with Harvard Business School. More than 80 new musical and multimedia works have been commissioned for the Silk Road Ensemble from composers and arrangers around the world. Through his work with Silkroad, as throughout his career, Yo-Yo Ma seeks to expand the cello repertoire, frequently performing lesser known music of the 20th century and commissions of new concertos and recital pieces. He has premiered works by a diverse group of composers, among them Elliott Carter, Richard Danielpour, Osvaldo Golijov, Leon Kirchner, Zhao Lin, Christopher Rouse, Giovanni Sollima, Bright Sheng, Tan Dun, John Williams and Dmitri Yanov-Yanovsky.

C-2

As the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s Judson and Joyce Green Creative Consultant, Mr. Ma is partnering with Maestro Riccardo Muti to provide collaborative musical leadership and guidance on innovative program development for The Negaunee Music Institute of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and for Chicago Symphony artistic initiatives. Ma’s work focuses on the transformative power music can have in individuals’ lives, and on increasing the number and variety of opportunities audiences have to experience music in their communities. In March 2016, he was appointed Artistic Advisor at Large to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts as part of their expansive initiatives honoring the centenary of JFK’s birth and to encourage the idea of creative citizenship. Yo-Yo Ma is strongly committed to educational programs that not only bring young audiences into contact with music but also allow them to participate in its creation. While touring, he takes time whenever possible to conduct master classes as well as more informal programs for students – musicians and nonmusicians alike. At the same time, he continues to develop new concert programs for family audiences, for instance helping to inaugurate the family series at Carnegie Hall. In each of these undertakings, he works to connect music to students’ daily surroundings and activities with the goal of making music and creativity a vital part of children’s lives from an early age. He has also reached young audiences through appearances on “Arthur,” “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” and “Sesame Street.” Mr. Ma’s discography of more than 100 albums (including 18 Grammy Award winners) reflects his wide-ranging interests. He has made several successful recordings that defy categorization, among them Appalachia Waltz and Appalachian Journey with Mark O’Connor and Edgar Meyer, and two Grammy-winning tributes to the music of Brazil, Obrigado Brazil and Obrigado Brazil – Live in Concert. Mr. Ma’s recent recordings include: The Goat Rodeo Sessions, with Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile and Stuart Duncan, which received the 2013 Grammy for Best Folk Album, and Songs from the Arc of Life, with pianist Kathryn Stott. His most recent release, Sing Me Home, recorded with the Silk Road Ensemble, was released in April 2016 as the companion album to documentary film The Music of Strangers. Created by Oscar-winning producer Morgan Neville, the film follows the Ensemble’s more than 50 musicians, composers, visual artists and storytellers as they explore the ways art can both preserve traditions and shape cultural evolution. Mr. Ma remains one of the best-selling recording artists in the classical field. All of his recent albums have quickly entered the

| Get Soci@cupresents | cupresents.org | 303-492-8008 |

best sellers, remaining in the top 15 for extended periods, often with as many as four titles simultaneously on the list.

Mr. Ma and his wife have two children. He plays two instruments, a 1733 Montagnana cello from Venice and the 1712 Davidoff Stradivarius. For additional information, see: yo-yoma.com, silkroadproject.org and opus3artists.com.

YO-YO MA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; February 22, 2017

Yo-Yo Ma was born in 1955 to Chinese parents living in Paris. He began to study the cello with his father at age four and soon came with his family to New York, where he spent most of his formative years. Later, his principal teacher was Leonard Rose at the Juilliard School. He sought out a traditional liberal arts education to expand upon his conservatory training, graduating from Harvard University in 1976. He has received numerous awards, including the Avery Fisher Prize (1978), the Glenn Gould Prize (1999), the National Medal of the Arts (2001), the Dan David Prize (2006), the Leonie Sonning Music Prize (2006), the World Economic Forumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Crystal Award (2008), the Presidential Medal of Freedom (2010), the Polar Music Prize (2012) and the Vilcek

Prize in Contemporary Music (2013). In 2011, Mr. Ma was recognized as a Kennedy Center Honoree. Appointed a CultureConnect Ambassador by the United States Department of State in 2002, Mr. Ma has met with, trained and mentored thousands of students worldwide in countries including Lithuania, Korea, Lebanon, Azerbaijan and China. Mr. Ma serves as a UN Messenger of Peace and has performed for eight American presidents, most recently at the invitation of President Obama on the occasion of the 56th Inaugural Ceremony.

Deborah Voigt Those who believe operatic stardom can be found in anyone with natural 80th Anniversary talent, a decent work ethic and a large stash of herbal tea might be blindsided—in the best possible way—by what household-name soprano Deborah Voigt has to say about finding fame. In “Voigt Lessons,” a performance that’s part recital and part one-woman show, the Metropolitan Opera leading lady reveals all, from her successes to her rock-bottom struggles. Through refreshingly frank anecdotes, songs and arias, Voigt shares the moving story of her upbringing, her promising young adult years, her tales of love lost and found and, finally, the big break that kicked off her decades-long career in the spotlight. “Voigt is a down-to-earth woman with an ebullient personality who communicates best through her music,” says New York Times critic Anthony Tommasini, who attended the premiere performance of “Voigt Lessons.” “She gives a chatty, witty and sometimes painfully poignant account of her life … weaving in performances of inspirational songs, art songs, show songs and bits of arias … [in] an exuberant performance that drew a rousing ovation from the delighted audience.”

Wagnerian sound. With a singular stage presence, a uniquely beautiful voice and a folksy, relatable personality, she’s managed to inspire millions of music lovers. It might be hard to believe, then, that the going wasn’t always this good for Voigt. As a child of devout Baptists in Wheeling, Illinois, she knew she could sing but didn’t learn much about opera. She was well into adulthood when she enrolled in the voice program at California State University at Fullerton. In the years ahead, Voigt struggled to fight criticism, find a big break and eradicate emotional instability. But through it all, Voigt persevered—and to the delight of her fans, today the down-to-earth diva’s voice is stronger and more beautiful than ever. The Wall Street Journal proclaims, “Not only has her majestic voice made her fans love her, but so has the soprano’s profound feeling for texts and subtleties of musical style, not to mention her genuine sense of humor.” Saturday, Feb. 18, 7:30 p.m. | tickets start at $20

If Voigt’s story is any indication, it takes some nearimpossible combination of thick skin, a sense of humor and an unparalleled, powerhouse voice to make it in the intensely competitive world of opera. Today, she’s one of the most recognizable divas: She appears regularly on the world’s biggest stages, is the author of a bestselling memoir and is known internationally for her classic

About the Eklund Opera Program

Recognizing the importance of the arts and live vocal performance in an increasingly distracted world, longtime Boulder resident Paul Eklund made a generous gift in October 2014 to help establish a $2 million endowment at the CU Boulder College of Music. Funding from the endowment helps support three opera productions each academic year, the CU New Opera Workshop and an opera scenes program for new students.

MAKE ANYTHING POSSIBLE.

When we are guided, supported and encouraged by others, it’s a powerful experience. It builds our confidence, brightens our outlooks and frees us to imagine all that’s possible. However, when resources are stretched and families struggle to make ends meet, it is difficult just to keep kids safe and cared for, let alone to give them opportunities to play sports, learn new things and explore new worlds. The YMCA provides both: a safe, nurturing environment as well as the guidance and encouragement to discover all we can achieve. When we have the YMCA, anything is possible.

For a better future. For a better us.
