Exclusive Southern California Engagement of Hamburg Ballet Performing The Little Mermaid Segerstrom Center’s International Dance Season continues February 8 – 10 with the return of Hamburg Ballet performing its hauntingly compelling production of The Little Mermaid. This will be the company’s exclusive Southern California engagement and the Southern California premiere of the ballet. It is based on the story by Hans Christian Andersen with direction and choreography by John Neumeier, Hamburg Ballet’s director and chief choreographer. This sophisticated interpretation of the classic story delves into the deeper themes of conflicted love and loss. Featuring an original commissioned score by renowned composer Lera Auerbach, Neumeier’s contemporary version of The Little Mermaid explores two divergent worlds: the serenity and simplicity of underwater life and the complex, often absurd, lives of humans. Inspired in part by traditional Japanese theater, Neumeier’s vision features striking costumes and dramatic scenery. He interweaves the story with elements of Andersen’s biography, making the writer a figure in the ballet. The Mermaid’s feelings and her tragic destiny become a reflection
of Andersen’s own longing. As she travels through both her own world and that of humans, enduring torment because of her committed love for a prince, in the end, the Mermaid discovers her own strength. Tickets for Hamburg Ballet start at $25 and will go on sale Sunday, December 16 at 10 a.m. PST. They will be available online at SCFTA. org, at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling (714) 556-2787. For inquiries about group ticket savings for 10 or more, call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. The TTY number is (714) 556-2746. Free Preview Talks will occur one hour prior to each performance. The Friday, February 8 Preview Talk will be sign-language interpreted. Artists and program are subject to change. Since 1973, American-born John Neumeier has been director and chief choreographer of Hamburg Ballet and “Ballettintendant” since 1996. Under his direction, Hamburg Ballet became one of the leading ballet companies of the German dance scene and quickly received international recognition. As a choreographer, Neumeier has continually focused on the preservation of
ballet tradition, while giving his works a modern dramatic framework. His latest creations for the Hamburg Ballet, Purgatorio and Liliom, premiered in 2011. The Little Mermaid was commissioned by the Royal Danish Ballet to commemorate the 200th birthday of Hans Christian Andersen. It premiered in Copenhagen on April 15, 2005. In 2007, Neumeier created a revised version for his own company, the Hamburg Ballet, and the score was completely reworked by Lera Auerbach. The current touring production is based on adaptations made by Hamburg Ballet. In 2010, The Little Mermaid, premiered by San Francisco Ballet, was first performed on the American continent and made its Russian debut at the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Moscow Academic Music Theatre in 2011. In 2012, the production will premiere at the National Ballet of China. The Center’s International Dance Series is made possible by: Audrey Steele Burnand Endowed Fund for International Dance and The Segerstrom Foundation Endowment for Great Performances with special underwriting from William J. Gillespie.
Classical KUSC is the Media Partner and COAST Magazine is Print Media Sponsor of the International Dance Series. The Center applauds Acura, the Official Automotive Sponsor of the Center.

Vanguard Honors Veterans and Celebrate Veterans Resource Center Over one hundred guests gathered in Vanguard University’s Veterans Courtyard of Honor to pay homage to the many veterans who have served our country. The celebration began with the Invocation, given by Chaplain of the Student Veterans Club, Rory Self. Following a heartfelt welcome from Vanguard University (VU) President, Dr. Carol Taylor, Congressman Dana Rohrabacher handed well-deserved awards to Freedom Committee of Orange County’s Jack Hammett USN (ret.) and Vanguard Veterans Resource Center President, SSgt. Gabriel Corona. The act of courage these veterans have shown by virtue of having served our country became more apparent hearing Keynote Speaker and Vice President of the Students Veterans Club, Chris Kupitz, recount his experience serving eight years in the US Army, including two Iraq deployments. Attendees were quickly brought to a place of sobering reflection as Kupitz explained the events that initially led him to answer the call to serve. A stark picture of a journey that began in 2001 unfolded as Kupitz bravely shared his painful struggle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and battling depression resulting from the tragic news of his best friend’s suicide. The fortuitous opportunity to leave combat and work alongside top military leaders in creating lasting government processes in Iraq was something he believes helped save him from following in his best friend’s footsteps. “I was the most decorated soldier in my command from that first tour having been awarded the Bronze Star, a second NCO ribbon for completing BNOC, the Army Commendation Medal, and the Army Achievement Medal II,” Kupitz said of returning home from his second deployment. “But I felt like a broken and lost soldier returning home to the states.” Kupitz’s experience returning home highlights the realities that men and women who return home from war commonly face. “When our soldiers are returning home broken, confused, frustrated, angry, and unable to fully comprehend or cope with the residual torment of a war zone they survived, what we need to provide our veterans with is a loving, safe environment, that allows them to process everything they have endured; a place that believes in their future, supports their needs and is actively pursuing them, before they become another statistic,” said Kupitz. A shining example of the place Kupitz describes is what he – and many other student veterans – have found at the Veterans Resource Center at VU. Founded in 2010 by a group of Vanguard student veterans, the Veterans Resource Center supports veterans by providing academic planning, financial advisement, and resources for professional, personal and spiritual development. “Many of the 30,000 veterans who return to California each year experience challenges when transitioning from military to civilian life,” says Brent Theobald, Director of Government Relations at VU. “Education is the best transitional bridge for veterans because it provides hope for a better life through increased employability, higher income potential and restored purpose through self-discovery.” Among those transitioning, it is estimated that 30,000 to 300,000 veterans nationally will be affected by invisible wounds of war, such as PTSD and other related mental disorders including traumatic brain injury as a result of the US engagement on the Global War on Terrorism. A December 2011 Pew Research Center study found 27% of returning veterans said they had a difficult time transitioning to civilian life, up 44% among veterans who served since 2001. Page 10

“There are a lot of choices that our soldiers can make with their benefits but you would be hard pressed to find a school that offers veterans more opportunities to be involved and to succeed than here at Vanguard,” said Kupitz winding down his speech. “My wish is that more colleges and universities will model themselves after Vanguard by putting the programs into place to leave no veteran behind.” The Veterans Day Celebration ended on a jubilant note, with veterans standing proudly as the Vanguard Saxophone Quartet played the Armed Forces Salute medley including The Caissons Song (Army), Marine’s Hymn, Anchors Aweigh (Navy), The U.S. Air Force song and Semper Paratus (Coast Guard). For more information on the Veterans Resource Center at Vanguard University, please visit http://veterans.vanguard.edu/about/.

CELEBRATE THE SEASON WITH THE KING OF INSTRUMENTS “HOLIDAY ORGAN SPECTACULAR” Enveloping the audience in a magnitude of musical splendors, the $3.1-million William J. Gillespie Concert Organ, played by world-renowned organist Todd Wilson, captures the beauty, range and colors of popular and traditional holiday music during Pacific Symphony’s annual “Holiday Organ Spectacular.” Unique arrangements illuminate the talent of Wilson, Broadway star Lisa Vroman and accompanying principal Symphony musicians: Benjamin Smolen, flute; Barry Perkins, trumpet and Mindy Ball, harp. Joining the Symphony for the third year, Wilson, head of the organ department at The Cleveland Institute of Music and curator of the E.M. Skinner pipe organ at Severance Hall, also performs organ works by Bach and Handel. This concert takes place one night only, Tuesday, Dec. 18, at 7:30 p.m. in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, with the Foothill High Dickens Carolers serenading an hour before the concert begins. Tickets are $25-75; for more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org. “This will be a wonderful and unique combination of musical arrangements customized for this particular concert,” says singing sensation Vroman, who starred for several years on Broadway as Christine Daae in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “The Phantom of the Opera.” “The organ is an amazing instrument and able to create so many different sounds and colors; in a way, it is its own orchestra! The main difference in singing with the organ is that I will be on a microphone to compete with the organ’s sound, which is immense in the hall. But it’s not only me onstage with the organ. We also have Ben Smolen, Barry Perkins and Mindy Ball. It’s a pleasure to make music with just a few instruments and give the audience a more intimate look at the collaboration—and a chance to hear some of their favorite members of Pacific Symphony shine on their own!” The program features well-known and cherished Christmas songs including: Handel’s “Let the Bright Seraphim,” from “Samson,” “O Holy Night” “God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen,” “The Little Drummer Boy,” “Sleigh Ride,” “Let It Snow,” “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and much more! Furthering the yuletide spirit, the audience is invited to join the performers in singing along to classic holiday favorites “The Holly and the Ivy,” “Deck the Halls,” “Silent Night” and “Joy to the World.” Symphony Flutist Smolen offers some thoughts on his instrument’s role in traditional Christmas music: “One of my favorite parts of the Christmas Eve service growing up was hearing the choir sing the descant lines to my favorite carols
like ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing.’ The flute often takes on this role, especially in music of the holiday season, adding soaring counter-melodies to familiar carols. I think the combination of organ, flute, trumpet and harp is especially poignant given the significance of all these instruments in Biblical literature and in the history of the church. Music was an important part of Biblical life, and flutes, trumpets and harps often took center stage in important festivals and praise. The combination with organ recalls that instrument’s long history in church life and the countless sacred works it has inspired over the centuries. “I think audience members will really enjoy discovering some of the beautiful but lesser-known carols we are preparing, and also participating in the sing-alongs of many Christmas favorites such as ‘Deck the Halls’ and ‘Silent Night,’” Smolen continues. “The sense of community and celebration should make for a really special, festive experience.” Regarded across America and around the world as one of today’s finest concert organists, Wilson is the director of music and worship at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral in Cleveland. He also serves as house organist for the newly restored Aeolian organ at the Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron, Ohio. He has performed in major cities throughout the United States, Europe Todd Wilson and Japan, including concerts at Symphony Hall in Birmingham, UK, Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, Orchestra Hall in Chicago, Severance Hall in Cleveland, Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas and Uihlein Hall in Milwaukee. His latest CDs on the JAV label feature a live recital of American music from the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., and “Live from Severence Hall,” a concert of music for trumpet and organ. Vroman garnered Theatre Critic’s awards for her Broadway role as Christine Daae in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “The Phantom of the Opera” during a record-breaking run in San Francisco, and she also had a return engagement at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. In 2008, Vroman made her Carnegie Hall debut with the New York Pops, starred as Lili Vanessi in “Kiss Me Kate” with Glimmerglass Opera, sang the role of Birdie in “Regina” with Utah Opera, made her New Jersey Opera debut as Rosalinda in “Die Fledermaus,” and premiered two Comic Operas by composers John Musto and William Bolcom with the New York Festival of Song. She is a frequent guest soloist with major theatre and opera companies as well Lisa Vroman as orchestras. The Newport News

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
