Meet Herschel Cromwell: Living Proof That Your Donations SAVE LIVES “It means a lot to our family knowing that our parents were able to help.”

L to R: Janelle Belanger, Herschel Cromwell, Steve Belanger

Herschel Cromwell remembers nothing about the day he was moments from death, the result of a ruptured aneurysm. But Cromwell was lucky; his aneurysm was quickly diagnosed using a sophisticated ultrasound machine purchased with a donation from the Belanger family. Without this family’s generous gift, Cromwell would not be alive today.

Donations from members of our community are saving lives every day at Providence Health & Services and, thankfully, we have many more stories from grateful patients who receive state-of-the-art treatment and lifesaving care as a result of those with generous spirits. As a non-profit, Mission-driven organization, our proceeds and your financial gifts support much-needed services and programs in the communities we serve; everything from expanding pediatric intensive care units and access to care to purchasing sophisticated radiation equipment for cancer patients.

Every donation, large or small, saves lives. Just ask Herschel Cromwell. Please consider donating to one of our Providence ministries.

WELCOME

TO THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL

Welcome to our 92nd season at the beautiful Hollywood Bowl!

Every summer Angelenos from all walks of life gather in this iconic spot, nestled in the Hollywood Hills, to share in the experience of live music.

The Hollywood Bowl has played host to legendary performances by artists of every genre, and we add more historic concerts each year. This summer that tradition continues with our own Gustavo Dudamel.

Gustavo is now a Bowl veteran. This year marks his fourth summer as Music Director at a venue that figures prominently in his career and that he cherishes deeply. Over the past few seasons, Gustavo has built upon the Bowl’s long history as the ideal setting for grand, operatic expression. There is nothing quite like the shared experience of thousands of listeners entranced by a singular voice under the night sky; in August, Gustavo will bring us Verdi’s Aida as well as his Requiem, in celebration of the 200th anniversary of the composer’s birth.

Many dear friends of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, including Michael

Tilson Thomas, Bramwell Tovey, Itzhak Perlman, Gil Shaham, and JeanYves Thibaudet, will also join the orchestra at the Bowl this summer, and the L.A.-based dance company Diavolo will complete its acrobatic triptych of works created specifically for the LA Phil at the Bowl with Fluid Infinities, set to the music of Philip Glass.

The Bowl is renowned for the diversity of its programming, and this season is no exception. Joining a roster of classical music’s finest performers are critically acclaimed artists from the worlds of jazz, world music, R&B, country, Broadway, and indie rock. We’re thrilled to welcome back Principal Guest Conductor of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra Thomas Wilkins, as well as legendary musician Herbie Hancock in his fourth season as Creative Chair for Jazz.

Over its history, the Hollywood Bowl has been endowed with meaning by the celebrated artists who have stood on its stage and by you – its patrons. The memories of the tens of millions of people who have sat in this venue’s benches, picnicked on its lawns, and marveled at its music have made the Hollywood Bowl a celebrated place.

Thank you for joining us this evening, and we hope you will enjoy your summer nights with family and friends under the stars.

It’s back. Summer in L.A. Warm days, cool nights, and the Hollywood Bowl. Whether the Bowl is a lifelong ritual for your family or this is your first summer, what better Los Angeles tradition is there than spending star-filled evenings together, relaxing, dining with friends, and enjoying great music.

Planning a season of concerts is always thrilling, of course, but this “off-season” was also filled with physical projects throughout the park to enhance your experience tonight and every night.

Just inside the main gate, you’ll find the new wine bar and popcorn stand. Barbara Callas of Callas Architects created the delightful design of this new construction, reflecting the architectural history of the Bowl.

Thank you to MATT Construction for their remarkable execution of this project. The wine bar provides an enticing spot to have a drink and a bite, provided by Joachim Splichal and the Patina Group. Please be sure to try it. The setting is striking and offers a lovely way to start your evening.

On your way to your seat, you undoubtedly noticed the new park furniture, including picnic tables, benches, and tables and chairs. The beautiful dark wood with green accents complements our natural setting, and the new furniture brightens the venue and increases picnick-

ing capacity! Our friends at Rios Clemente Hale Studios provided their design expertise in selecting and customizing the furnishings.

Technology upgrades abound with a new speaker system and LED video screens. The Hollywood Bowl is now the proud home of the first permanent installation of L’Acoustics KI speakers, a system that has been in use across the world including the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2012 Olympics. The high-definition, LED video screens deliver a clearer, brighter picture, even during twilight hours, and will bring you a closer connection to the performers throughout the concert.

The furniture and LED video screens, together valued at just under $3 million, were funded through the financial leadership of the County of Los Angeles and the Honorable Zev Yaroslavsky. We offer Supervisor Yaroslavsky our sincere thanks and recognition for his ongoing support.

We further extend our gratitude to all members of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, County CEO William T Fujioka, the Department of Parks and Recreation, the Department of Public Works, the Metropolitan Transit Authority, and the Los Angeles County Arts Commission.

A fantastic season of great artists and music lies ahead. We recognize our media, corporate, and foundation partners who provide a range of support throughout the summer and help make possible the brilliant music on the Bowl stage. More than anything, thanks to you, our patrons, for your passion and devotion. Welcome back and enjoy the show!

WELCOME

TO THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL

A MESSAGE FROM SUPERVISOR ZEV YAROSLAVSKY Welcome once again to the Hollywood Bowl and another inspiring season of music under the starry Southern California skies!

As Supervisor for the Third District where the Bowl is located, it’s my pleasure and privilege to serve as steward for one of the world’s most distinctive and internationally renowned outdoor performance venues.

More than just a sentimental favorite since the 1920s, the Hollywood Bowl is an exciting and award-winning facility where classical music, jazz, world beat, and multi-media performances are presented to you in technically state-of-the-art productions.

This season, in addition to the outstanding variety of terrific musical offerings you’ve come to expect, you’ll find a number of significant improvements to enhance your Bowl experience, including brand new replacement loudspeaker arrays to upgrade and improve our sound; replacement LED screens offering substantially more accurate color and sharper images to improve your viewing; and new furniture, tables, and other amenities in the Bowl’s picnic, promenade, and terrace sections for your comfort and enjoyment.

The Bowl has always been part of my most cherished memories growing up in Los Angeles, and the artistic and cultural life of our community that it represents remain a central part of my life as an elected official.

Classical music has long been my passion, but I’ve enjoyed more than my share of the Bowl’s numerous folk, pop, jazz, and political concerts of the day as well. Through the decades, the Bowl endures, and as you will see for yourself, it just keeps getting better.

So once again, welcome. Nowhere else in the world is there an outdoor theater of this size, boasting performances of such quality in an environment so convivial, located in the heart of a great metropolis. As it was for my parents’ generation, our Hollywood Bowl remains one of the top cultural attractions of its kind in the world.

I invite you to enjoy and celebrate this concert season in the magical realms of summer nights at the Hollywood Bowl!

Zev Yaroslavsky Supervisor, Third District County of Los Angeles

GUSTAVO DUDAMEL

Dynamic conductor GUSTAVO DUDAMEL’s passionate music making invigorates audiences of all ages worldwide. He is concurrently serving as Music Director of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the impact of his musical leadership is felt on several continents. While his commitment to his music director posts in the United States and Venezuela accounts for the major portion of his yearly schedule, Dudamel also guest conducts with some of the world’s greatest musical institutions each season, such as the Vienna Philharmonic, the Berlin Philharmonic, and La Scala in both opera and concert.

Dudamel is in his fourth season as Music Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, where his contract has already been extended until 2018/2019, the orchestra’s 100th season. Under his leadership the Los Angeles Philharmonic has extended its reach to an unprecedented extent via LA Phil LIVE to audiences throughout North America, Europe, and South America, and through Youth Orchestra LA (YOLA), which was widely influenced by Venezuela’s successful El Sistema.

It is not only the breadth of the audience reached, but also the depth of the programming performed under Gustavo Dudamel that is remarkable. Programs at the Los Angeles Philharmonic in 2012/2013 represent the best and the boldest: ranging from an LA Phil-commissioned and now staged oratorio by John Adams titled The Gospel According to the Other Mary, which the LA Phil and Dudamel toured this spring to New York’s Lincoln Center, London’s Barbican Centre, Switzerland’s Lucerne

MUSIC DIRECTOR

Festival, and Paris’ Salle Pleyel; to a staged Marriage of Figaro with sets by architect Jean Nouvel, representing part two of a three-year project of presenting the Mozart/Da Ponte trilogy.

Having triumphed in performances at the 2012 Olympics in London, Gustavo Dudamel continues to lead the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra in his native Venezuela as well as on tour, in this his 14th season as Music Director. In addition to a 2012 U.S. tour from California to New York, other season highlights in 2013 include a production of Tannhäuser at the Bogotá Opera, followed by a summer residency at the Salzburg Festival.

An exclusive Deutsche Grammophon artist since 2005, Gustavo Dudamel has numerous recordings on the label, including a 2012 Grammy-winning Brahms Symphony No. 4 and a recent Mahler 9, both with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. In the area of video/DVD, many releases capture the excitement of important concerts in Dudamel’s musical life.

Gustavo Dudamel is one of the most decorated conductors of his generation and was recently named Musical America’s 2013 Musician of the Year. Born in 1981 in Barquisimeto, Venezuela, his early musical and mentoring experiences molded his commitment to music as an engine for social change – a lifelong passion. In 2012, Gustavo and Eloísa Dudamel launched The Dudamel Foundation, which is dedicated to furthering music education and social justice around the world. (www.gustavodudamel.com)

LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC

The LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC is reinventing the concept of a 21st-century orchestra under the vibrant leadership of Gustavo Dudamel. Now in its 94th season, the Philharmonic is recognized as one of the world’s outstanding orchestras and is received enthusiastically by audiences and critics alike. Both at home and abroad, the Philharmonic is leading the way in innovative programming and redefining the musical experience.

This view is shared by more than one million listeners who experience live performances by the Los Angeles Philharmonic each year. The Philharmonic demonstrates a breadth and depth of programming unrivaled by other orchestras and cultural institutions, performing or presenting nearly 300 concerts throughout the year at its two iconic venues: Walt Disney Concert Hall and the Hollywood Bowl. The orchestra’s involvement with Los Angeles also extends far beyond regular symphony concerts in a concert hall, embracing the schools, churches, and neighborhood centers of a vastly diverse community. Among its wide-ranging education initiatives is Youth Orchestra LA (YOLA). Central to YOLA is the Philharmonic’s plan to build, with community partners, youth orchestras in communities throughout Los Angeles. In 2012, the LA Phil in partnership with the Longy School of Music (Cambridge, MA) and Bard College (New York) furthered this goal with the new initiative, Take A Stand, which supports social change through music by providing leaders with tools for growth through a series of conferences and workshops, and provides progressive and rigorous training for performing and teaching musicians.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic was founded by William Andrews Clark Jr., a multi-millionaire and amateur musician, who established the city’s first permanent symphony orchestra in 1919. Walter Henry Rothwell became its first music director, serving until 1927 and, since then, ten renowned conductors have served in that capacity: Georg Schnéevoigt (1927-1929); Artur Rodzinski (1929-1933); Otto Klemperer (1933-1939); Alfred Wallenstein (1943-1956); Eduard van Beinum (1956-1959); Zubin Mehta (1962-1978); Carlo Maria Giulini (1978-1984); André Previn (1985-1989); Esa-Pekka Salonen (1992-2009); and Gustavo Dudamel (2009-present).

In October 2003, the doors to one of the world’s most celebrated venues – the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall – were opened and the Los Angeles Philharmonic took the stage in its new home, which has become known not only as a local cultural landmark, but also as “…a sensational place to hear music... In richness of sound,

20

it has few rivals on the international scene, and in terms of visual drama it may have no rival at all.” (The New Yorker) Praise for both the design and the acoustics of the Hall has been effusive, and the glistening curved steel exterior of Walt Disney Concert Hall embodies the energy, imagination, and creative spirit of the city of Los Angeles and its orchestra.

Inspired to consider new directions, Dudamel and the Philharmonic aim to find programming that remains faithful to tradition, yet also seeks new ground, new audiences, and new ways to enhance the symphonic music experience. During its 30-week winter subscription season of 110 performances at Walt Disney Concert Hall, the Philhar-monic creates festivals, artist residencies, and other thematic programs designed to delve further into certain artists’ or composers’ work. In the 2010/11 season, the orchestra unveiled LA Phil LIVE, a series of concerts with Gustavo Dudamel broadcast live from Walt Disney Concert Hall to more than 450 movie theaters across the U.S. and Canada. In 2011/12, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, under the baton of Gustavo Dudamel, completed a monumental endeavor by performing Mahler’s nine symphonies over the course of just three weeks in Los Angeles and one week in Caracas.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic’s commitment to the presentation of music of our time is evident in its subscription concerts, its exhilarating Green Umbrella series, and its extensive commissioning initiatives. The Los Angeles Philharmonic New Music Group, devoted exclusively to performing compositions on the cutting edge of the repertoire, attracts leading composers and performers of contemporary music.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association expands its cultural offerings by producing concerts featuring distinguished artists in recital, jazz, world music, songbook, and visiting orchestra performances, in addition to special holiday concerts and series of organ recitals, chamber music, and Baroque music.

The Los Angeles Philharmonic continues to broaden its audience by touring worldwide, offering an extensive catalog of recorded music, and broadcasting concerts on radio and television. Through an ongoing partnership with Deutsche Grammophon, the orchestra also has a substantial catalog of concerts available online, including the first fulllength classical music video released on iTunes. In 2012, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Gustavo Dudamel won the Grammy for Best Orchestral Performance for their recording of Brahms Symphony No. 4.

CHICAGO’s RAZZLE-DAZZLE COMES TO THE BOWL Brooke Shields is looking forward to directing Chicago, the saucy, sassy tale of murder, fame, and playing the justice system that is the Bowl’s three-night Broadway musical production this year (July 26-28).

Looking forward to it, that is, “once I get past being terrified,” she says with a nervous laugh.

Shields is herself a veteran of the show, having played Roxie Hart – the aspiring chorine who kills her lover and in prison meets vaudeville-star-turnedmurderess Velma Kelly – both on Broadway and London’s West End. But she has never directed – anything – before.

“You have to start somewhere,” Shields says. “I feel this is a great story to wet my feet with. I’m not inventing the wheel. We know the story. We know it works.”

That’s for sure. The revival now playing Broadway opened there in 1996 and won six Tony Awards. In December, it passed Les Misérables as the third-longest-running production in Broadway history, and it is the longest-running revival in Broadway history.

The original production – directed, choreographed, and co-written

by Bob Fosse – opened on Broadway in 1975 and ran for more than two years. With music by John Kander and lyrics by book cowriter Fred Ebb, the show starred Fosse’s then-wife Gwen Verdon as Roxie, Chita Rivera as Velma, and Jerry Orbach as Billy Flynn, the flashy defense attorney whose skills the women vie for when they’re not competing for the attention of the public and the media. The musical was based on a 1926 play of the same name by Maurine Dallas Watkins, which in turn was inspired by actual headline-grabbing murder trials.

The 1996 revival’s opening cast included Ann Reinking as Roxie, Bebe Neuwirth as Velma, James Naughton as Billy, and Joel Grey as Roxie’s milquetoast husband Amos. The 2002 film version brought to the screen such classic numbers as Velma’s opening showstopper “All That Jazz,” Billy’s “Razzle Dazzle” discourse on how to fool a jury, and “Cell Block Tango,” in which prisoners explain why their husbands and lovers deserved to die. It won that year’s Oscar for Best Picture, the first musical to do so since Oliver! in 1968.

“I’m obsessed with the show,” says Shields, who had initially been asked by Reinking to join a Chicago tour in 2005 and instead landed in London. “I did the 10th anniversary [celebration performance, in 2006].

I did research on all the manifestations.”

The show has been on the Bowl’s wish list for years, according to Brian Grohl, Bowl pops program manager and Hollywood Bowl Orchestra manager, who produces the Broadway events with former staffer Steve Linder.

“It’s always a thrill when a title you want becomes available,” Grohl says. “Chicago is a great show, with a book that remains relevant today, and a sizzling score audiences love.”

Just how relevant? 1920s-era or not, “it’s such a satire on the criminal justice system, on corruption, on the concept of the celebrity criminal,” he says. “And today, the idea of people seeking fame for fame’s sake, of achieving fame but not by talent, runs quite rampant.”

The revival opened just a year after the O.J. Simpson double-murder trial concluded. Its first musical director, Rob Fisher, continues as supervising musical director for Chicago productions worldwide, and will conduct at the Bowl.

“The discussions at the Bowl were about who could bring a kind of smart celebrity to the event, who knows Chicago from the inside as a performer,” says Fisher, who previously led Bowl concerts with Patti LuPone and Fourth of July programs celebrating the Dodgers’ 50th anniversary in Los Angeles.

“Brooke is so smart,” he adds of the Princeton graduate. “Her perceptions of relationships on stage, the kind of questions she asks, and the support she brings to her fellow performers – that’s what you want in a director. She’s been thrown in as a replacement [besides Chicago, in such Broadway shows as The Addams Family, Grease, Cabaret, and Wonderful Town], and she’s figured out things the directors haven’t.”

That experience of joining shows with only nine days of rehearsal, Shields notes, works to her advantage at the Bowl, where the first rehearsal with the full cast is 11 days before opening. At press time, casting was incomplete; in this era of skewing young, she’d like to cast some seasoned performers who haven’t previously played lead roles at the Bowl.

“Annie Reinking, Gwen, Chita – those are the women I looked to and loved,” Shields explains. “When those women did the show, they were in their 40s. [Verdon had just turned 50.] This is a story of real desperation – your last chance, your last go at it. These women are survivors. I’m hoping a little bit more of that desperation comes through. Everybody in the story is reaching a point in their life where they’re looking to the past, not the future. I’d like it to be a little bit edgier – I don’t mean depressing or too dark, but to see the desperation of the humor, and what it’s covering up.”

The performers playing the roles will continue the Bowl’s Broadway all-star tradition, thanks to the efforts of Margery Simkin, who was first brought onboard when Richard Jay-Alexander directed Guys and Dolls in 2009, for her connections to top-name talent.

“The idea is to reach out to talent who have recognition value for the [Bowl] audience, but not necessarily for musical theater,” says the veteran casting director, whose credits include Avatar, Erin Brockovich, and Top Gun. “People didn’t know that [actor-comedian] Dane Cook [last year’s The Producers] could sing as well as he did, or that [former Pussycat Dolls singer] Nicole Scherzinger [2010’s Rent] could act. You always have to look for people who are right for the role, who can do the job.

We’re always trying to come up with people to please the audience, which is a vast and eclectic bunch.”

At 60 feet deep and 100 feet wide, “vast” is also the word for the Bowl stage. The Chicago revival originated as part of the New York City Center Encores! series of concert versions of musicals, its minimal sets and onstage band unchanged with the transfer to Broadway. The Bowl’s production designer, Joe Celli, a twotime Primetime Emmy Award winner for artdirecting the Oscars, is expanding the settings; Chicago costume designer William Ivey Long will provide his Tony-nominated costumes.

The choreography, by Reinking in the style of Fosse, is being handled by Broadway dance veteran Gregory Butler.

Fisher, for one, is happy for the extra room on stage, and the opportunity to conduct the score and the “amazing” Ralph Burns orchestrations he hasn’t tired of even after almost 17 years. And, he says, “We tailor those roles for each individual’s strengths. They’re meant to impress. When the performers are out there with that big crowd, the Fosse dances spread out on stage – I think they’ll be thrilling at the Bowl.”

WALT DISNEY CONCERT HALL 10TH ANNIVERSARY

CELEBRATION

LA PHIL 2013/14 SEASON

This new season celebrates both the tenth anniversary of the opening of Walt Disney Concert Hall and Gustavo Dudamel’s fifth year as Music Director, through programs that reflect the dynamic, adventurous past and signature pioneering and inventive programs that shape the future. The pillars of the season – with 12 new commissions, nine world premieres, four U.S. premieres, and four West Coast premieres – include a series of anniversary performances; Così fan tutte, the final installment of the three-year Mozart/Da Ponte Trilogy; the return of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, for TchaikovskyFest with the LA Phil; the Emanuel Ax Brahms Project; and the conclusion of András Schiff’s survey of the solo keyboard music of J.S. Bach. Additionally, the return of Minimalist Jukebox, a festival guided by Creative Chair John Adams with citywide partners, will feature a broad range of artists across all genres and include works by such seminal figures as Glass, Riley, Andriessen, and Adams himself.

Subscriptions to the new season are still available, and Create Your Own packages (five or more concerts chosen from the full range of series and non-subscription programs) are also on sale now.

“The tenth birthday of Walt Disney Concert Hall is a wonderful reason for our great city of Los Angeles to celebrate,” said Dudamel. “Our friend and colleague, Frank Gehry, lovingly built this world-renowned masterpiece as a living room for the people, and we get to share it with you weekly through our music making. This season, an additional delight for me is to have my two musical families, the LA Phil and the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, working together once again – this time with Tchaikovsky. As a young boy, I discovered Tchaikovsky through great recordings and he has had a very special place in my heart ever since. I hope that you will join us to celebrate this great hall and great music.”

In the week before the opening, there will be a series of free Inside Outside community concerts with the LA Phil, culminating on September 29 with a side-by-side performance featuring the orchestra and YOLA at Walt Disney Concert Hall. Inspired by Gustavo Dudamel’s artistic vision and experience in Venezuela’s El Sistema – YOLA (Youth Orchestra LA) works with community partners to provide free instruments and high quality music instruction to over 600 students in Los Angeles 32

communities that would not otherwise have access. YOLA is operated in partnership with Harmony Project, Heart of Los Angeles (HOLA), and the EXPO Center, a City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks facility. This will be the first time in its six-year history that YOLA students will perform alongside the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

The season begins September 30 with Dudamel leading the annual Opening Night Concert and Gala, with cellist Yo-Yo Ma, who was one of the soloists at the Inaugural Galas in 2003. The Tenth Anniversary Celebration continues with the opening weeks of subscription concerts, led by Dudamel and Esa-Pekka Salonen, the Philharmonic’s Music Directors during our first ten years in Walt Disney Concert Hall.

Dudamel’s opening program includes the world premiere of Shing Kham by the late Peter Lieberson, with percussion soloist Pedro Carneiro, and Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 with soloist Yefim Bronfman. The second week brings the second annual installment of pianist Leif Ove Andsnes’ survey of Beethoven’s music for piano and orchestra, matched with the U.S. premiere of Brett Dean’s The Last Days of Socrates for chorus and orchestra.

Salonen’s first orchestral program features the world premiere of Oliver Knussen’s Cello Concerto, with soloist Anssi Karttunen, and signature works by Debussy and Bartók. His second offers his own Violin Concerto with soloist Leila Josefowicz, who gave the dazzling premiere here in 2009, plus Sibelius’ Fifth Symphony. In between, Salonen launches the Green Umbrella series with a world-premiere performance of Frank Zappa’s iconoclastic 200 Motels.

Other Tenth Anniversary Celebration programs include the opening Toyota Symphonies for Youth concerts, featuring Salonen’s Wing On Wing, which was inspired by Walt Disney Concert Hall and premiered during the first season here; Portuguese fado singer Mariza returning to launch the World Music series; and a special Jazz series performance uniting Dianne Reeves, Christian McBride, and Herbie Hancock, the LA Phil’s three Creative Chairs for Jazz during the period.

There will be several other special projects and festivals. In April 2014, Minimalist Jukebox returns, curated again by John Adams. Adams conducts a Green Umbrella program that matches the world premieres of works by Mark Grey and Missy Mazzoli with Different Trains by Steve Reich. Adams’ orchestral program features the world premiere of an Organ Concerto by Terry Riley, with soloist Cameron Carpenter, and

Adams’ own Naive and Sentimental Music, a work commissioned, premiered, and recorded by the LA Phil. Reinbert de Leeuw conducts the West Coast premiere of Louis Andriessen’s De Materie, Grant Gershon leads “the Rome Section” of Philip Glass’ the CIVIL WarS, and duo-pianists Katia and Marielle Labèque perform a Colburn Celebrity Recital of minimalist keyboard music. Emanuel Ax’s Brahms Project, taking place over the course of several months, includes performances of both piano concertos, No. 1 conducted by Robin Ticciati and No. 2

by Dudamel, and two recital programs combining new works by Missy Mazzoli, Nico Muhly, Anders Hillborg, and Brett Dean with songs and chamber music by Brahms.

With TchaikovskyFest in February and March, Dudamel shines new light on the composer, conducting the beloved symphonies, tone poems, and more with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and our inspired partner orchestra, the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela. This festival features significant community and education programs as well as presentations of ensembles drawn from both orchestras. The culminating event will be a musical celebration combining both orchestras in the 1812 Overture and other tone poems.

In addition to the Tenth Anniversary Concert uniting Hancock with his predecessors, the Jazz series features a “Soul of Jazz” program from Dee Dee Bridgewater and Ramsey Lewis, a tribute to the shared 60th anniversaries of the Newport Jazz Festival and the famous Jazz at Massey Hall bebop concert, and an evening with the Joshua Redman Quartet and the Brad Mehldau Trio.

The Songbook and World Music series also return with dynamic, starry lineups. Songbook presents Rita Wilson, Mary Chapin Carpenter in her first live show with full orchestra, and Cheyenne Jackson with music of the Mad Men era. In addition to Mariza, World Music offers a tribute to Antonio Carlos Jobim and Elis Regina from Maria Rita (Regina’s daughter) and Oscar Castro-Neves, Hawaii’s Keali’i Reichel, and a 75th birthday show from South African trumpeter Hugh Masekela.

The annual Deck the Hall holiday concerts present A Judy Collins Christmas, the return of the Blind Boys of Alabama, Chanticleer, and the Count Basie Orchestra, as well as the Holiday Organ Spectacular and the Holiday Sing-Along.

LIVE FROM THE BOWL HOLLYWOOD BOWL MUSEUM There is something so evocative about the sound of a radio announcer setting the scene for a broadcast concert. When you hear Duke Ellington or Mario Lanza speaking directly to the audience at the Bowl, there is a sense of immediacy and presence that is absolutely astonishing. What about a very young Frank Sinatra saying “[This is] the finest orchestra in the country: the Los Angeles Philharmonic!”? These are just a few of the clips playing now at the Hollywood Bowl Museum, right here on the Bowl grounds, down Peppertree Lane.

There is a new exhibit on the second floor of the Museum called “Live From the Bowl – Recordings and Broadcasts from the Bowl 1928-2012.” In it the examples above are playing, as well as dozens of other audio and video clips on touch screen computers, and on vintage phonographs, radios, and TVs in period settings. There is a 1930s-era parlor, for example, with a 1936 Philco “tombstone” radio playing Fred Astaire singing “They Can’t Take That Away From Me” on a CBS broadcast live from the Bowl.

An RCA KCS47 black & white TV plays a clip from the first national live television broadcast from the Hollywood Bowl: The Colgate Comedy Hour (1954). Typical of the “variety shows” of those days, it combined a young pop star (Eddie Fisher), a classical violinist (Mischa Elman), a popular singer (Peggy Lee), a jazz legend (Louis Armstrong), ballet dancers (Maria Tallchief and Frederic Franklin), and a comedy act (The Vagabonds) in an attempt to appeal to a wide audience in terms of both age and taste. In the 1960s it was the “Mad Men” era, Thomas Cassidy, announcer at classical where the sophisticated radio station KFAC, Hollywood Bowl bachelor pad wouldn’t opening night broadcast July 8, 1969. be complete without a Courtesy Cambria Archives 38

high fidelity component system, complete with turntable, amps, pre-amps, woofers, and tweeters playing an LP of the Hollywood Bowl Symphony Orchestra conducted by Carmen Dragon.

Instead of the whole family sitting in front of the TV together, teenagers of the ’70s and ’80s had their own world and their own music in their own bedroom, which we recreate in the Museum, shag carpet and all. Miniaturization, including the development of the transistor, and videotape made it possible to have small and relatively cheap devices. The exhibit includes clips from The Brady Bunch at the Hollywood Bowl and Monty Python at the Hollywood Bowl, with some audio from Miles Davis and Pink Floyd, also live at the Bowl.

The digital age has brought out DVD releases of many live shows from the Bowl, including Van Morrison, Aerosmith, DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist, Mariachi USA, the Korean Festival, and the webcast of Gustavo Dudamel’s 2009 welcome as Music Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, ¡Bienvenido, Gustavo!.

In addition to the conceptual development and curatorial research by Museum staff, it takes quite a team to put all this together in the form of an exhibit. Graphic designer Robin Weisz, the Ironwood fabrication/ installation team, Olson Visual printers, and lighting designer Elmer Urteaga all have been working on Hollywood Bowl Museum exhibits for many years. This exhibit also required set decorators (Charlie Productions), video production (Vanishing Angle), and a computer programmer (Chris Richter) for the touch screens. Len Horowitz at History of Recorded Sound provided access to his collection of vintage audio and video equipment. David Torgersen, audio/sound developer at the Exploratorium in San Francisco, helped to develop educational materials. Bob Attiyeh loaned his 1926 “Bluebird” Victrola, Rodri Rodriguez sent video of Mariachi USA, and Lance Bowling of Cambria Archives contributed impossible-to-find recordings and broadcasts from the early days of the Bowl.

The Hollywood Bowl Museum is open before concerts. Summer hours are Tuesday – Saturday 10am to 8pm and Sunday 4pm to 7:30pm. Admission is always free. For more information, call the Edmund D. Edelman Hollywood Bowl Museum at 323.850.2058 or visit hollywoodbowl.com/visit/museum.cfm.

Carol Merrill-Mirsky, Museum and Archives Director for the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association, curated the “Live From the Bowl” exhibit.

FROM THE LA PHIL

Los Angeles Philharmonic Welcomes New Principal Cello Praised by The New York Times as an “artist who makes one hang on every note,” American virtuoso cellist ROBERT deMAINE has distinguished himself as one of the finest and most versatile musicians of his generation, having performed worldwide to critical acclaim from Carnegie Hall to the Teatro Colón, Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw, and the Berlin Philharmonie. He joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic in May as Principal Cello.

A first-prize winner in many national and international competitions, deMaine became, in 1990, the first cellist ever to win the Grand Prize at San Francisco’s Irving M. Klein International Competition for Strings. As soloist, he has collaborated with many distinguished conductors, including Neeme Järvi, Peter Oundjian, Joseph Silverstein, and Leonard Slatkin, and has performed virtually all of the major cello concerto repertoire with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, where he served as Principal Cellist since 2002.

Robert deMaine’s principal teachers include Leonard Rose, Steven Doane, Paul Katz, Aldo Parisot, Luis Garcia-Renart, and Felix Galimir, and he counts among his chamber-music partners violinists James Ehnes, Hilary Hahn, Ani and Ida Kavafian, and pianists Emanuel Ax, Orion Weiss, and Yefim Bronfman. He has made regular appearances at the international music festivals of Marlboro, Aspen, Heidelberg, San Miguel de Allende, Montréal, and Seattle, and is also the cellist of the highly acclaimed Ehnes Quartet.

Also a composer, Robert deMaine has written many works for the cello, including Twelve Etudes-Caprices, which he performs regularly.

Several important composers have written large-scale works for him, including Chris Theofanidis, Joel Eric Suben, and Kenneth Fuchs.

As a soloist and chamber musician, deMaine has recorded for the Chandos, Naxos, and Onyx labels, and has four new releases coming out in the 2013/14 season, including the John Williams Cello Concerto with Leonard Slatkin and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra on Naxos.

From a military and musical family of French and Polish descent, deMaine studied at the Juilliard School, the Eastman School of Music, the University of Southern California, Yale University, and the Kronberg Academy in Germany. For more information, please visit robertdemaine.com.

In Memoriam: Richard Kelley The Los Angeles Philharmonic family was deeply saddened by the news of the passing of Richard D. Kelley in April at the age of 76.

Kelley joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic bass section in 1956 at age 19 and played with the orchestra for 57 years. At age 18 he played bass for one season as a member of the Dallas Symphony, prior to joining the Philharmonic.

During his long tenure with the orchestra Kelley delighted in touring the world, playing in many outstanding concert halls in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. As a seasoned veteran of the orchestra, Kelley’s first

love was playing the classics with worldrenowned soloists and conductors. He was especially happy to be performing with Music Director Gustavo Dudamel at Walt Disney Concert Hall, as it was his favorite place to play because of its outstanding acoustics.

His father, Richard F. Kelley, was also a member of the bass section of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, joining in 1930, also at age 19. He played principal bass for 30 out of his 47 years. Richard’s brother Ray Kelley was a member of the Philharmonic cello section from 1963-68.

Hence, at one time there were three Kelleys in the orchestra!

Outside of his lifelong love of orchestral performance, Richard D. Kelley was a devoted family man and devout Jehovah’s Witness. He had a passion for deep-sea fishing and was an avid tennis player.

He left behind his loving wife of 57 years, Marge (Sweitzer) Kelley; four children, Tami Cabrera, Lisa Porto, Jennifer Rowland, and Jeff Kelley; seven adoring grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren – who will all miss his presence greatly. Also surviving Richard are his brothers Ray Kelley and Randall Kelley, and sister Lorna Doctorow.

LA Phil Receives Getty Education and Community Investment Grant The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association is one of 22 American orchestras to receive a Getty Education and Community Investment Grant in the program’s first year. This unique program is a partnership between the Ann and Gordon Getty Foundation and the League of American Orchestras designed to highlight orchestras’ responses to community needs through educational, health and wellness, social service, and neighborhood residency programs. The grant was awarded to the LA Phil to help fund the orchestra’s groundbreaking music education initiative, Youth Orchestra LA (YOLA), and recognizes the LA Phil’s dedication to expanding its educational efforts for the benefit of children in the city’s most underserved communities.

“More and more orchestras all over the country are finding innovative ways to help address community needs through music,” said League President and CEO Jesse Rosen. “The Ann and Gordon Getty Foundation’s commitment to encourage these important educational and community engagement programs is a great boost to orchestras’ ability to provide community relevance beyond the concert hall.”

A prerequisite for qualifying orchestras was established partnerships with local cultural and/or community organizations, such as schools or social service providers. YOLA is rooted in substantive, community-driven partnerships that have been instrumental to the program’s success and rapid growth over the past six years. Through YOLA, the LA Phil and its community partners provide free instruments, intensive music training, and academic support to students from underserved neighborhoods, enabling every child to benefit from the life-changing power of music. continued on page 49

But did you know that – like the other 173 parks and facilities overseen by the County of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation – the Hollywood Bowl’s grounds are a public park, open to everyone even when the Philharmonic and other amazing musicians aren’t on stage?

Not only are there lovely green spaces, picnic benches, and other amenities throughout the nearly 69 acres that include the Bowl, but the unique landscape provides amazing, challenging – and perhaps best of all, free – opportunities for recreation and exercise when the music isn’t playing.

At the Department of Parks and Recreation, we encourage people of all ages to stay healthy, encapsulating that challenge with our call to “Play for Life!” At the Hollywood Bowl, there are ample possibilities for in-the-know patrons to accept that challenge – and have fun doing it.

The Bowl Walk – an admission-free, self-guided tour along the park’s pedestrian walkways – is a great way to move your feet while learning about this landmark’s storied history and magnificent architecture. More information (and a printable map) can be found at hollywoodbowl.com/visit/hollywoodbowl-museum/bowl-walk.

Want to really get your heart pumping?

At whatever pace they choose, and in consultation with their medical professionals, the cardio-conscious can take full advantage of the elevation on these grounds.

Some may relish tackling the 169 steps of Aisle 3 that form a direct line from Promenade 1 to the top of the Bowl seating area. From the down stage edge to the rear seating area that borders a grassy hillside, it is a distance of 450 linear feet, representing a 100-foot vertical rise.

Looking for a steeper challenge? Then you

might be interested to know there is a 568foot vertical rise from the lowest point on the Bowl property (Lot D, Milner Avenue) to the highest (Mulholland Overlook).

Whatever your level of physical fitness, our incomparable Southern California weather, which we are privileged to enjoy most days of the year, delivers a virtually limitless number of occasions to enjoy the Bowl and its beautiful natural surroundings.

Bringing your workout to the Bowl is an experience that is impossible to duplicate, and one that will pay priceless dividends for your mind, body, and spirit. Indeed, it embodies our motto that “Parks Make Life Better!”

See you at the top!

continued from page 46 New at The Bowl Store Following a very successful first season of commissioning a local Los Angeles artist to design merchandise, The Bowl Store has again reached out to the Los Angeles arts community for an artist to create an exciting and fresh concept for the 2013 summer season. Andrew Holder is the artist responsible for the wildly exciting image of Walt Disney Concert Hall that was seen on LA Phil Store products this last season. He has given us a charming new look for The Bowl Store that is especially stunning on this year’s Hollywood Bowl throw. The Bowl Store has been producing a new throw every season since 1994 and it has become a topic of conversation among collectors who wait eagerly each year to see what the new image will be. Holder’s new image will also be found on tees, mugs, and commemorative pins.

As always, The Bowl Store is filled with fun merchandise for youngsters and their parents, from the almost mandatory light sabers that celebrate the John Williams concerts to the books and games that teach while providing arts information in painless and entertaining ways. All genres of music – jazz, classical, hip hop, pop, world – can be found in CDs and books at The Bowl Store.

Having a picnic? The Bowl Store can help with Hollywood Bowl wine glasses and flutes, serving bowls, and wine bottle bags to keep that chill on the Chardonnay. Stay cozy and warm in our Hollywood Bowl sweat shirts and jackets, or rock out with our “over the top” Hollywood Bowl rock tee.

The Bowl Store is the fun center of your Bowl experience – come in and enjoy the experience at our main location in the Box Office Plaza or at any one of our three locations around the theater.

This summer the Hollywood Bowl Chefs Picnic Club marks its fifth year of creating culinary memories at the famed amphitheatre.

Each week during the Bowl season, three recipes (an appetizer, entrée, and dessert) from an acclaimed chef are emailed to Picnic Club subscribers, a group whose passions are pleasantly torn between music and food.

Participation is limited to chefs with an L.A. presence, and through the years some extraordinary culinary talent has been showcased.

Celebrity chefs Thomas Keller, Wolfgang Puck, Michael Mina, Tom Colicchio, and José Andrés have all contributed, as have hometown favorites Joachim Splichal, Suzanne Goin, John Sedlar, Nancy Silverton, and Susan Feniger.

Also represented are young revolutionaries, including Ludovic “Ludo” Lefebvre, Roy Choi, Casey Lane, and Andrew Kirschner.

Collectively, these individuals have earned a galaxy of Michelin stars and regularly rack up James Beard Awards. The 54-chef roster includes Top Chef champion Michael Voltaggio and recent Top Chef runner-up Brooke Williamson. The diversity of this group is impressive, with natives of five continents represented.

One of the Picnic Club’s most enthusiastically received chefs has been Rick Bayless, whose three appearances began in 2010 after he created a sophisticated Mexican menu at Melrose Avenue’s Red O. Bayless’ acclaimed Chicago restaurants, books, and PBS series established this gringo as a leading authority on Mexican cuisine, and his colorful, educational commentary has been a hit with subscribers. “Good music is the easiest way to set the right vibe, no matter what the occasion, and food that

complements the music further enhances everyone’s experience,” says Bayless of his inspiration for the Picnic Club program.

Maintaining relationships is tough in the restaurant business, but Quinn and Karen Hatfield – one of three married couples featured in the program – suggest working

together may be the solution. “Sometimes, however, you need a bit of space and a good old-fashioned date night far, far away from the restaurant,” says Karen, who remembers Mose Allison was playing in the background the first time she and Quinn cooked dinner together. He turns out the savory side of the menu at Hatfield’s, one of L.A.’s most honored restaurants; Karen handles the sweets and shows off her repertory at the Sycamore Kitchen, the couple’s fun, casual eatery.

Another popular Chefs Picnic Club participant, and one of L.A.’s most beloved chefs, is Alain Giraud, who turned out some of the city’s most extraordinary tasting menus at Bastide before turning to a more casual approach.

Today, his food oozes heart, soul, and Provence at his charming Pacific Palisades bistro, Maison Giraud. “Music, like cooking, is a gift that brings people together, and enjoying music at the Hollywood Bowl is the equivalent of dining at one of the world’s greatest tables,” says the affable chef.

PROCEDURE 1. Heat the oven to 350° F. 2. Scoop the chipotle chilies, adobo, lime juice, ketchup, sugar, and salt into a blender and process to a smooth purée.

3. Pour into a large bowl along with the almonds and toss until the nuts are evenly coated.

4. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and evenly spread the nuts on it. Bake until they are fragrant and no longer moist, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. Cool the almonds on the sheet pan, then scoop into a serving bowl and set out for all to enjoy.

Chef’s Note: When the nuts are ready to remove from the oven, they will no longer feel sticky – but they won’t be crisp. That’ll happen as they cool off. If the almonds you buy are blanched (peeled) but not toasted, spread them on a rimmed baking sheet and bake in a 325° F oven until they’re aromatic and lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

ENTRÉE by Quinn and Karen Hatfield (2011) Maine Lobster with Summer Succotash Serves 4 INGREDIENTS 2 two-pound Maine lobsters 3 large ears sweet corn 2 cups fava beans, shelled 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half 12 basil leaves 2 tablespoons butter (or olive oil) Kosher salt PROCEDURE 1. Fill a 4-gallon stock pot with 2 gallons of water, cover with a lid, and bring to a boil.

When boiling, add enough kosher salt for the water to taste well seasoned.

2. Add the lobsters and boil for 15 minutes.

When done, remove them and allow to stand 5-10 minutes before serving.

3. Before serving, remove the meat from the shells.

4. Meanwhile, stand each ear of corn on end and remove the kernels by slicing down the side, then rotating and repeating. Doing this in a wide, shallow bowl or roasting pan with a towel in the bottom helps catch the kernels, protects your knife and stabilizes the corn.

Peel the oranges and remove all of the white skin. Use a sharp knife to separate the segments and remove the remaining skins.

Reserve any juice.

2. Wash the strawberries. Reserve 16 berries for presentation. Remove the stems and quarter the remaining strawberries.

3. In a non-reactive bowl, combine the strawberry quarters, orange segments and juice, Muscat, and chopped basil. Let infuse in a cool space for 2 hours.

ABOUT THE

ARTISTS even more so. Matt’s and my taste are very similar and pretty varied – we like the same random group of things, but it’s a wide range of things. I don’t just like one genre of music.

That’s part of what informs the songs. We’re not locked into one kind of arrangement. If you’re a country band, you’re kind of locked into a certain way of doing things.”

One of the more remarkable aspects of She & Him’s musical partnership at this juncture is the pair’s sheer determination to get a new record done, given their action-packed individual schedules. Ward spent most of 2012, starting with an appearance at South

By Southwest, touring behind his acclaimed solo album, A Wasteland Companion, while Deschanel filmed the first and second seasons of her network TV comedy success New Girl.

Despite the hectic nature of their professional lives, Volume 3 often feels like a convivial gathering of musical friends, a respite from a faster paced world.

– Michael Hill

As with the duo’s previous discs, SHE & HIM have once again chosen a refreshingly practical, truth-in-packaging title for their latest effort; this one is simply called Volume 3. While that’s totally accurate, it’s also a little misleading – and not only because there was a wonderful gift of a 2011 holiday album, A Very She & Him Christmas, in between 2010’s Volume Two and the new collection. Volume 3 is indeed another discrete chapter in singersongwriter Zooey Deschanel and guitarist M. Ward’s unique collaboration, but She & Him is not just about the time that Deschanel and Ward manage to spend in a studio together.

Theirs is a remarkable, year-round dialog that began serendipitously on a film project in 2007, leading to 2008’s She & Him debut, Volume One, and that has flourished ever since.

Deschanel and Ward are like 21st-century pen pals, emailing music files back and forth from whatever recording studio, sound stage, or dressing room in which they happen to be.

We get to periodically share in this exuberant exchange as they display their passion for, and knowledge of, a wide range of music – from classic country to vintage pop, no frills rock and roll to grandly overdubbed wall-of-sound drama.

P2

Since the beginning, Deschanel has done the writing and Ward the arranging, working with the mostly voice-and-piano demos Deschanel sends him. The results on Volume 3 feel a bit more sophisticated in approach than previous efforts but sacrifice none of the fun.

Ward has expanded his musical vocabulary, underscoring many of these tracks with sump- tuous string arrangements, perhaps most beautifully on “Never Wanted Your Love,” an early Deschanel composition that juxtaposes a hand clap-driven pop beat with elegant orchestration, and the alternately bittersweet and breezy “I Could Have Been Your Girl.”

Though she sounded like a natural from the start, Deschanel admits she’s grown a lot more comfortable in the recording studio. She had been writing songs for most of her life, but going public with them was a big step: “With the first record, I was so timid, a lot of it for me was just trying to get the vocals. The first song we recorded, we did it in Portland with our friend Mike Coykendall and we were working in his house. When it came time to sing, I needed them both to disappear.” She laughs as she thinks about it now. “I guess there was a lot of stuff that I needed to deal with psychologically. By Volume Two, I was a lot more confident and with Volume 3 now,

EMMYLOU HARRIS & RODNEY CROWELL embarked on a series of special tour dates in March in celebration of Harris and Crowell’s new collaborative album, Old Yellow Moon, which was released February 26 on Nonesuch Records. The album is also available on iTunes and nonesuch.com.

Harris is a 12-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient whose contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists’ recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008.

Old Yellow Moon is the follow up to her acclaimed 2011 release, Hard Bargain, which debuted in the top 20 on the Billboard 200 chart. Associated Press called it “gorgeous” and said Harris’ “silvery soprano is in fine form,” while USA Today called it “exquisite… her unmistakable soprano, at once grainy and ethereal, still wraps itself around a lyric with an angel’s delicate warmth.”

Crowell is a multi-Grammy winner whose songs have been recorded by Johnny Cash, Norah Jones, Etta James, and The Grateful Dead, among others. His 1988 breakthrough Diamonds and Dirt generated five No. 1 singles

label which White’s debut launches. A gifted jazz arranger and exceptional guitarist, White is joined by bassist Cameron Ralston (the Wise) and drummer Pinson Chanselle (the Mighty) in the formation of the Spacebomb House Band. You won’t forget those names.

This core group, multiplied by horns, strings, and a choir (all culled from and roused by the venerable landscape of Richmond, Virginia), was captured to tape in White’s own trickedout attic on the west side of town. This is Spacebomb: an inimitable House Band, a producer, and a unified crew of arrangers and musicians join with an artist and cut a record – with staggering results. White assumed the actor-director role for Big Inner; it’s the first Spacebomb album, the playbook and the highlight reel all at once, for a colossal series of upcoming albums from Natalie Prass, Karl Blau, Joe Westerlund (Megafaun), and Ivan Howard (The Rosebuds, Gayngs). A conductor in every sense of the word, an ambitious new label and a solo album were an easy segue from White’s well-known post as the leader of the avantgarde jazz band Fight the Big Bull. and a Grammy for the song “After All This Time.” His critically acclaimed works The Houston Kid, Fate’s Right Hand, The Outsider, and Sex and Gasoline were followed by the 2010 release of his memoir, Chinaberry Sidewalks. In June 2012 Crowell released KIN: Songs By Mary Karr & Rodney Crowell.

The album made its debut at No. 1 on the Americana and Country Rock album chart and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Americana album chart. His honors also include an ASCAP Lifetime Achievement Award and membership in the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Like all of us, MATTHEW E. WHITE was born into a constructed world. His unfolded out of the mingled sands of Virginia Beach and Manila, the youngest son in a family that raised him barefoot between the blurred racket of that far Eastern jungle city and the backyard lightning-bug-hum of a trimmed southern lawn. His first moves, from picking up a basketball to picking up a guitar, were cast in the dual glow of these latitudes. Something between them taught him to love. Something between them taught him to time travel. Here began the lessons of Big Inner.

On that day in August, when the earth

shifted into the shape of Matthew E. White, there was so much to listen to, so much to put your heart into, already. The dusts of the Delta had swirled into Rock ’n’ Roll. Alan Lomax’ recordings sat in a big building in Washington, D.C. Lee Perry had built The Black Ark in his backyard in Kingston. Somebody else lived in Big Pink. Mac Rebennack was Dr. John. King Tubby was dubbing. Terry Riley was overdubbing. Sly Stone had hit No. 1. Randy Newman’s Sail Away was a decade old. Caetano Veloso had just turned 40.

Muddy Waters was just about gone. Jimmy Cliff had sung “Many Rivers to Cross.” So had Harry Nilsson. White shared this common inheritance. He stitched his own flag out of it.

Big Inner is told in seven songs that merge memory with the rawness of any given human moment. The references – from the lyrics that echo the common conditions of love, death, seeking, and finding, to open tributes to artists like Washington Phillips, Allen Toussaint, Jorge Ben, Jimmy Cliff, and Randy Newman – are their own scavenger hunt through history and through White’s place in it.

For a record so personal, built on such code, it’s never been a secret. Inseparable from Matthew E. White is Spacebomb – the process, the sound, the spirit, and the record

ABOUT THE

ARTISTS

DAMIAN ROBERT NESTA MARLEY, also known around the world as “Junior Gong” and more recently as “Gongzilla,” was born in 1978 to parents Bob Marley and Cindy Breakspeare,

Miss World 1976. As a young adult, he developed a passion and a gift to speak for those who cannot always speak for themselves.

A self‐proclaimed “Spiritual Revolutionary,” Damian has worked assiduously to carve his own niche in music history and to add a new perspective to the Marley legacy for the 21st century.

At the age of 13, Damian began performing in a group called The Shepherds, which included Shiah Coore (son of Third World guitarist Cat Coore and currently a member of his band) and Yashema Beth McGreggor (daughter of reggae singers Freddie McGreggor and Judy Mowatt), and then began touring with his brothers, Stephen, Ky‐mani, Julian, and Ziggy.

By 1996, Damian had already made his stamp as a different kind of Marley when he released his first solo album, Mr. Marley, a heavily dancehall‐influenced album produced by his brother Stephen Marley. His second album, Halfway Tree, was released in 2001 by a major record label and showcased Damian’s unique gift for blending dancehall, reggae, and hip‐hop styles. This album won Damian much recognition and remained on the Billboard Top Reggae Album charts for 158 weeks and earned him his first Grammy for Best Reggae Album in 2002.

While honored by this recognition by the global music fraternity, Damian continued to work in the studio, laying the groundwork for the tracks that would become Welcome to Jamrock. The lyrics in this album presented Marley as a true spiritual revolutionary, as he used his talent to evoke a spiritual change

while trying to enforce a better way of thinking. He is described as “rhyming with the conviction of a street preacher with the intellect of a university economist.”

Damian’s hit single “Welcome to Jamrock” was listed as one of the Top 100 Songs of the Decade by Rolling Stone, and at the 2006 Grammy Awards he won Best Reggae Album and Best Urban/Alternative Performance for Welcome to Jamrock. Damian is the only Jamaican reggae artist in history to win two Grammys on the same night. He is also the only reggae artist to win in the Best Urban/ Alternative Performance category at the Grammy Awards.

Welcome to Jamrock led to Damian’s critically acclaimed collaboration with Nas for 2010’s much lauded album Distant Relatives – a project which explored the relationships between reggae, hip‐hop, and Africa. The album title refers not only to the bond between the artists, but the connection to their African ancestry, which inspired the album both musically and lyrically. The album debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart and No. 1 on the R&B/Hip‐Hop Albums, Rap Albums, and Reggae Albums charts, with Billboard heralding the album as “a dynamic hybrid.”

Damian continued to cross musical boundaries as he went on to partner with Skrillex for their groundbreaking track “Make It Bun Dem,” which Rolling Stone called “a monster mashup of dubstep and dancehall” and has led to several remixes of the original version.

Damian recently released two other singles, “Set Up Shop” and “Affairs of the Heart,” which received widespread airplay.

Damian continues to tour with his band all over the world as a way of entertaining and healing as he continues to spread the message for those whose voices cannot be heard.

Damian is currently working with his brothers Stephen and Julian under their Ghetto Youths International Label, to discover, develop, and sign gifted artists by applying their musical talent and vast experience to create new and different styles of music.

Damian recently received nominations at the Soul Train Awards 2012 CentricTV.com for Best Caribbean Performance for “Super Heavy” and a MOBO Award nomination for Best Reggae Act. Damian continues to work in the studio in preparation for his upcoming solo album.

Few people were surprised when STEPHEN “RAGGA” MARLEY’s long awaited debut solo album, Mind Control (Tuff Gong/Ghetto Youths/ Universal Republic), premiered at No. 1 on

the Billboard Reggae Album chart in March 2007. After all, the singing, songwriting, and production excellence Stephen had brought to other Marley family projects over the years, including younger brother Damian’s two Grammy-winning albums, practically guaranteed Mind Control would be a remarkable effort.

And indeed it was: Mind Control is that rare self-produced set featuring a cohesive range of diversified styles, each delivered with equal proficiency.

Also unsurprising was the widespread critical acclaim that accompanied Mind Control’s release: Interview Magazine called it “a quiet masterpiece, easily the best effort from a Marley progeny”; Entertainment Weekly hailed it as “the best Marley album in a generation.” Mind Control won the Best Reggae Album Grammy in 2008 while its unplugged version, Mind Control-Acoustic, was similarly honored in 2010, increasing Stephen’s Grammy total, earned from his various roles on assorted Marley family projects, to seven, a recordsetting number for a Jamaican artist.

The second son of Bob and Rita Marley, Stephen was born on April 20, 1972; he began his career as a precocious six-year-old singing, dancing, and playing percussion with his siblings in the group The Melody Makers, whose first single, “Children Playing In the Streets,” was produced by their father in 1979 and released on Tuff Gong, the label founded by Bob in the late ’60s. Just like his older brother Ziggy, Stephen acquired his initial studio skills by watching his father. While still a teenager he assisted in the production of The Melody

Makers’ albums, including their three Best Reggae Album Grammy winners: Conscious Party (Virgin Records, 1989), One Bright Day (Virgin Records, 1990), and Fallen Is Babylon (Elektra Entertainment, 1998). In 1993 Ziggy and Stephen founded Ghetto Youths International as a means of controlling their own music and helping upcoming artists. Stephen’s earliest solo production efforts for Ghetto Youths International include his late grandmother’s (Cedella Booker) album My Altar, followed in 1995 by the Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers single “Works to Do” and younger brother Damian’s “10,000 Chariots.”

The first project that brought Stephen’s production capabilities widespread attention was Chant Down Babylon, where he audaciously manipulated his father’s original vocal outtakes from the 1970s Island Records’ sessions, splicing them into duets with hip-hop and R&B artists, while updating the Wailers’ richly textured one-drop rhythms with an assortment of samples, loops, and overdubs.

Chant Down Babylon achieved its objective of bringing Bob’s music to a new generation of fans, earned a Grammy nomination, was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America, and has sold more than one million copies worldwide.

Stephen’s hip-hop infused dancehall beats were far more fluid and complex on Damian’s 2001 album Half Way Tree (Ghetto Youths/Motown), with spectacular growth displayed by both the producer and the artist. Half Way Tree yielded several hits in Jamaica and internationally, including “More Justice” and “It Was Written” (featuring Capleton), and won the 2002 Grammy for Best Reggae album.

Stephen produced and contributed vocals to Damian’s single Welcome to Jamrock, the biggest reggae song of 2005. Anchored in a blistering bass line courtesy of Robbie Shakespeare, sampled from the 1985 hit by Ini Kamoze, “World a Reggae Music,” Welcome to Jamrock’s haunting, gritty portrayal of Jamaica became an anthem throughout the island and on urban radio all over America. Stephen was nearly finished with Mind Control at the time of Jamrock’s release but to maximize the momentum of the hit single within the international marketplace, the completion of Damian’s third album now took precedence on his production schedule. The success of Welcome to Jamrock also increased the anticipation surrounding the release of Stephen’s solo effort, and when Mind Control finally arrived; it merited more attention than any Marley family member’s album in recent memory.

While Stephen has built a formidable repuP6

tation handily navigating between genres, his second album, Revelation Part 1: The Root of Life, marks a return to roots reggae, because “that is just the way the songs came out of me,” he explained. “Having to tour and having been out there for the past three years, I have been writing a lot of new material and to me and to the people around me, this album is very strong, with some very strong political songs.

I wasn’t as excited about Mind Control as I am about this album,” Stephen enthused. “We didn’t plan it, it just came together naturally, and sometimes things just work out better that way.” In 2013, Stephen Marley plans to release a follow-up to the Revelation Part 1: The Root of Life entitled, Revelation Part 2: The Fruit of Life, which will lean towards more of what Marley describes as an “eclectic feel.”

THE GHETTO YOUTHS CREW — Though best known as a dancehall performer, WAYNE MARSHALL has multifaceted abilities that defy easy categorization.

For more than a decade now, Marshall has evolved through different stages in the music industry, playing a crucial role both onstage and behind the scenes as a songwriter, producer, musician, and creative strategist.

After collaborating with a variety of reggae’s important collectives, including Ward 21, Vybz Kartel, Sean Paul, and Bounty Killer’s Alliance, Marshall has recently aligned himself with the Ghetto Youths International movement – with immediate and explosive results.

Since joining the Ghetto Youths camp, he’s released the epic posse cut “Go Hard,” which also features Damian Marley, Assassin, I-Octane, Bounty Killer, Aidonia, and – most surprising – the World boss himself, Vybz Kartel, who has been incarcerated for a year now. “Everybody wants to know how did we get Kartel on this track?” Marshall says with palpable enthusiasm. “It’s crazy. I really feel like that song is a big deal.”

His debut album under the Ghetto Youths banner will be titled Tru Colors. The brooding title track is a complex psychological study about friendship and disappointment that shows Marshall’s creativity at its finest. Other producers on the project include Marshall and his longtime creative partner Baby G, son of the legendary reggae producer King Jammy.

“Our musical journey together is so close that we’re almost twins,“ says Marshall.

Not content to write, produce, and record music, Marshall has been developing his musicianship as well. “I’m almost there. I’ve

done my 10,000 hours,” he adds, referencing author Malcolm Gladwell’s formula for mastering a new skill. “I’m trying to dig deep,” he says of his Ghetto Youths affiliation. “I’ve done a whole lot of soul-searching and I’m ready now to unleash on a different level.” Consider this your final warning.

Some things are planned, some things just happen, and then there are those things that are simply meant to be. Such is the link between CHRISTOPHER ELLIS, the youngest son of legendary Jamaican vocalist Alton Ellis, and the Ghetto Youths International crew.

“It’s a lineage thing,” says Christopher Ellis, who is currently preparing his debut EP for release on the GYI label. “It stems back to when I met Stephen and Damian Marley. And more than that, it stems to our fathers and the whole Trenchtown thing.”

Trenchtown, of course, is the economically down-pressed but musically blessed area of downtown Kingston that was immortalized

by The Wailers in their song “Trenchtown Rock.” Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer all hailed from Trenchtown, as did many other Jamaican musical heroes including the aforementioned Alton Ellis.

“When they made music, they would make songs religiously,” says Christopher Ellis, who toured extensively with his father and shared the stage with him since the age of 11, thrilling audiences around the world as he soaked up the finer points of life, music, and the music business from the master himself.

After his father passed away in 2008, Christopher Ellis was introduced to Stephen Marley by a mutual friend from Trenchtown. “He drove me to Hope Road one day,” Christopher recalls. “I sat down with Stephen Marley and the rest is history.”

The first fruit of that collaboration was “End of Time,” a collaboration with Stephen Marley and Jah Cure based on Alton Ellis’ “You Make Me So Very Happy.” That was followed by a 2010 reworking of the Alton Ellis classic “Willow Tree” that showcases Christopher’s sensitive vocal interpretation over a stateof-the-art reggae track produced by Stephen Marley. More recently, Ellis released the freshsounding single “Don’t Change Your Number,” featuring hard-hitting rhymes from Bay-C of the dancehall supergroup T.O.K., which has enjoyed strong radio airplay in his native London.

JO MERSA is the second generation offspring of reggae legend Bob Marley and the eldest son of Stephen Marley. In the same

tradition as his father and grandfather, Jo Mersa’s music has been deeply influenced by reggae culture, family, and spirituality.

Growing up as a youth in an atmosphere filled with conscious musicians, Mersa naturally began exploring his own musical journey. During his impressionable years, the musical youth would observe his father and uncles Damian Marley and Julian Marley produce music at the Lion’s Den studio in Miami, which was the catalyst to Jo becoming an accomplished, self-taught musician, perfecting the craft of how to build his own beats and riddims.

In 2010, Ghetto Youths International released Jo Mersa’s first single, entitled “My Girl,” a cross-over reggae/pop collaboration between Mersa and his cousin Daniel Bambaata Marley, which was produced at the Lion’s Den by Stephen Marley.

In 2012, Ghetto Youths released Jo Mersa’s second single and music video, entitled “Bad So.” The dancehall track hit international airwaves to heavy acclaim, and finds the once fledgling artist rising to the top of the radio charts in major markets, including London, Jamaica, New York City, Boston, and Miami.

The inspiration of Jo Mersa’s lineage has harnessed his organic creative energy and affirms his natural passion for creating music and performing on stage. But regardless of his heritage, Jo Mersa has forged his own identity with a style that ranges in a variety of categories, including roots/reggae, pop, dancehall and hip-hop.

In 2013, Jo Mersa can be found working on new music and touring internationally with his father, Stephen Marley. Mersa notes, “I feel blessed to have the opportunity to spread the messages of my grandfather, and through my own musical visions I hope to continue on with my father’s musical legacy.”

One of the newest recruits to the Ghetto Youths International ranks, the culturally inclined reggae singjay BLACK AM I has already distinguished himself as a powerful voice of Jamaican music’s next generation.

While he may be fresh to the music business, Black Am I has got ambition aplenty – and the talent and integrity to back it up. If you don’t know his name yet, then it’s time to get familiar.

Born in the rural village of Nine Mile, situated in the hills of the Jamaican parish of St. Ann, Black Am I knew that he was blessed with the gift of music. “Growing up in Nine Mile reggae was a part of me,” Black Am I explains. His father chose to call him I-Nesta,

out of respect for Nine Mile’s most famous son, Robert Nesta Marley. Sometimes a name carries the seeds of destiny – in keeping with the Rastafarian concept of word, sound, and power – so it came as no surprise somehow when Black Am I was inspired to sing.

Impressed by the youth’s talent, Damian “Junior Gong” Marley invited him to a formal audition at Tuff Gong studios in Kingston. The first song he recorded that day went like this: “Black am I, why should I stray? / Sticking to my roots and culture and so me ah go stay. / Black am I, like who must I say? / Martin Luther King and Marcus Garvey.” That powerful lyric had an immediate and lasting impact on all who heard it, and on the artist himself.

“People never knew my name at the time,” the artist recalls. “So everybody was calling me ‘Black Am I’.” Soon thereafter Junior Gong made it official, telling him “that’s the name we’re working with.”

THIRD WORLD is a Jamaican reggae band formed in 1973. Their sound is influenced by soul, funk, and disco. The band started when keyboard player Michael “Ibo” Cooper and

guitarist (and cellist) Stephen “Cat” Coore, who had originally played in The Alley Cats then Inner Circle, subsequently left to form their own band. The original drummer, Cornel Marshall, arrived via one of Jamaica’s most renowned groups of the ’60s, Tomorrow’s Children. The lineup for their first album as Third World also included a singer named “Prilly” and percussionist Irving “Carrot” Jarrett. The album included a cover of “Satta Massagana,” originally performed by The Abyssinians, which became a local hit.

Their second album, 96 Degrees in the Shade (1977), had several local hits and featured the band’s classic lineup. “Prilly” was replaced by the distinctive vocalist “Bunny Rugs” Clarke and an all-new rhythm section: Ritchie Daley on bass and former Inner Circle drummer Willie Stewart, who had defected to join the new band. Notable among its eight tracks were “1865 (96° in the Shade),” “Rhythm of Life,” and the album’s only cover, “Dreamland,” as recorded by Bunny Wailer. (This song, however, was not written by Wailer, other than the slight lyric and name change. It was in fact written and originally recorded as “My Dream Island,” by the American R&B band El Tempos in 1961.)

Third World’s greatest success came in the late 1970s and early 1980s, peaking with their cover version of The O’Jays’ “Now That We Found Love,” a hit single on both sides of the Atlantic in 1979. This song brought them to the attention of Stevie Wonder, who worked with them and wrote, along with Melody A. McCully, their hit “Try Jah Love.” They were also guests during the third season of SCTV. Amid claims of artistic differences, “Carrot” split from the band in the mid-1980s.

The resulting five-piece band then went on to record more commercial tunes, like “Sense of Purpose,” “Reggae Ambassador,” “Forbidden Love,” and “Shine Like a Blazing Fire.” Despite several more lineup changes, including the departures of Cooper and Stewart, and a decline in mainstream success, the band is still recording and performing up to the present day, including in front of a television audience at the Cricket World Cup 2007 Opening Ceremony in Kingston.

ABOUT THE

PROGRAM

Aaron Copland (1900-1990) defined a significant strain of American classical music in the 20th century with his lean, open evocations of country themes and subjects, developed through his best-known ballets and film scores. The commission for Copland’s Rodeo came, surprisingly enough, from the Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo, but with the choreography and scenario by Agnes de Mille.

The ballet was precedent-setting – there were said to be 22 curtain calls at its premiere at the Metropolitan Opera House on October 16, 1942 – and its success ensured that dance would thrive as an integral part of American musical theater. The ballet takes place at Burnt Ranch, where a Cowgirl finds herself competing with visiting city girls for the attention of the local cowboys, especially the Head Wrangler.

“Buckaroo Holiday,” the first section of the ballet, presents the trotting main “rodeo” theme and incorporates two traditional tunes, “Sis Joe” and “If He’d Be a Buckaroo,” the latter extensively developed by solo instruments but also including a major contrapuntal episode for the full orchestra.

Californian Carmen Dragon (1914-1984) was a highly successful composer, arranger, and conductor. Trained at San Jose State College, he worked as a nightclub pianist, and then as an arranger in Hollywood. He eventually scored more than 30 films, as well as television and stage shows. He conducted at the Hollywood Bowl many times in the 1950s and ’60s, recorded prolifically with the Hollywood Bowl Symphony, and served as music director of the Glendale Symphony for many years. His evocative arrangements — here of the powerful 1895 patriotic anthem “America the Beautiful” by Samuel Augustus Ward (1847-1903) — are still performed by orchestras and choirs around the world.

tune now used is based on the Gendarmes Duet from Jacques Offenbach’s operetta Geneviève de Brabant, which premiered in Paris in 1859. “The United States Air Force” – also known as “Off we go into the wild blue yonder,” its first line – was written by Captain Robert MacArthur Crawford as the “Army Air Corps Song” in 1939, and won a competition organized by the Air Corps, with a $1,000 prize from Liberty magazine. (In 1947 the words “United States Air Force” replaced “Army Air Corps” in the title.) “Anchors Away” is the fight song of the U.S Naval Academy, and was composed in 1906 by Lieutenant Charles A. Zimmerman, then bandmaster at the Academy.

The Colonel Bogey March was compos- ed in 1914 by the British army bandmaster Frederick Joseph Ricketts (1881-1945), who used the pseudonym Kenneth J. Alford for his work outside the military. (Although the name of the piece derives from golf lore and Ricketts published it as an extracurricular effort, it has long been a favorite of Commonwealth and American armed forces, most particularly the King’s Own Calgary Regiment of the Canadian Forces.) It was popular in sheet music from the beginning and became widespread during World War II with anatomically insulting lyrics aimed at the Nazi leadership. The tune has been used in many films, most famously whistled in David Lean’s The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957).

John Williams (b. 1932) is indisputably one of the most prolific and popular composers of our time. He is the vastly influential and popular dean of American film composers, of course, but his works for the concert-hall also have met with acclaim from both critics and audience – Soundings, composed for the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s inaugural festivities for Walt Disney Concert Hall, was a great success, and it joined a long list of works commissioned by leading orchestras and soloists around the world. Williams has also become one of America’s leading composers of music for important public occasions. Since the 1980s he has written several works to mark anniversaries or other events, among them the bright and energetic Summon the Heroes for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games.

Robert Lowden (1920-1998) served in the U.S. Army Band during World War II and went on to compose and arrange for Claude Thornhill’s big band and for 101 Strings. His Armed Forces Salute gathers the songs and marches of the branches of the United States military, with allusions to other patriotic music in the transitions. The earliest version of the Army’s song was the “Caisson Song,” written by three lieutenants stationed in the Philippines in 1908. In 1917 John Philip Sousa was asked to adapt it as a march for the Field Artillery, and in that form it became a huge popular hit. “Semper Paratus” (Always Ready), the official song of the U.S. Coast Guard, was composed by Coast Guard Captain Francis S. Van Boskerck while stationed in Alaska in 1927. The “Marines Hymn” gradually acquired anonymous lyrics in the 19th century. The

In the last half of the 1800s, Austria had its waltz king – Johann Strauss Jr. – and America had its march king – John Philip Sousa (18541932). Sousa was known the world over as a bandleader and the composer of dozens of marches, as well as of operettas, orchestral suites, and songs. The three marches on tonight’s program are American classics. The Washington Post was completed by Sousa in 1889, a commission for the Washington Post newspaper award ceremonies for promising journalists and essayists. Sousa penned Semper Fidelis in 1888. The march takes its title from the motto of the U.S. Marine Corps: Semper Fidelis – Always Faithful. It was dedicated to those who inspired it – the officers and men of the United States Marine Corps. In Sousa’s own words: “I wrote Semper Fidelis one night while in tears, after my comrades of the Marine Corps had sung their famous hymn at Quantico.” It became one of his most popular marches, and Sousa himself considered it his best. The Stars and Stripes Forever! was written in 1896 while Sousa was aboard ship from England to the United States.

The July Fourth Fireworks Spectacular explores the musical heritage of the United States, famously open – even to an ebullient British intruder this year. Angeleno vocal icon Josh Groban joins conductor Sarah Hicks and the Los Angeles Philharmonic for an evening of classic hits to celebrate our country’s 237th birthday.

ABOUT THE

ARTISTS

Possessing one of the most outstanding and instantly recognizable voices in music, singer, songwriter, and actor JOSH GROBAN has entertained fans across the globe with his multi-platinum albums and DVDs (25 million sold worldwide), electrifying live performances, and comedic film and television appearances. The 32-year-old Los Angeles native is the only artist who has had two albums appear on the Top 20 Best-Selling Albums list of the past decade, according to Billboard. In 2011, he appeared in the feature film Crazy, Stupid, Love and on NBC’s The Office as well as completing a sold-out world tour.

In February 2013, Josh released his 6th studio album, All That Echoes, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart. An active arts-education philanthropist and advocate, Groban is a member of Americans for the Arts Artists Committee, and his Find Your Light Foundation helps enrich the lives of young people through arts, education, and cultural awareness.

named Principal Conductor, Pops and Presentations, of the Minnesota Orchestra in October 2009; in addition to conducting most pops and special presentations, she is instrumental in creating new pops productions, while also heading the innovative series “Inside the Classics” and “Common Chords.” Hicks concurrently holds the position of Staff Conductor at the Curtis Institute of Music.

Throughout her career she has collaborated with diverse soloists, from Jaime Laredo and Hilary Hahn to Smokey Robinson, Ben

Folds, Chris Botti, Idina Menzel, Natalie Merchant, John Mayer, and Tiempo Libre, whom she led in the world premiere of Rumba Sinfónica. Last summer with the San Francisco Symphony, Hicks premiered Disney’s Pixar in Concert, a production for symphony orchestra that she will also premiere in Europe this winter. In 2011 she conducted Sting’s two-month European tour of Symphonicity.

Hicks has guest conducted extensively both in the U.S. and abroad, including the Chicago, San Francisco, Atlanta, National, Detroit, Milwaukee, Columbus, Vermont, North Carolina, Charleston, Richmond, Delaware, and Des Moines symphonies as well as the Los Angeles, Fort Wayne, Reno, and South Carolina philharmonics along with the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Florida Orchestra. Hicks appeared at the 2012 World Economic Forum in St. Petersburg conducting the St. Petersburg Philharmonic in concert with Dmitri Hvoro- stovsky, Sumi Jo, and Jackie Evancho.

She is a committed proponent of the performance of new music; the 2010/11 season marked the beginning of an innovative project conceived by Hicks: the Musical Microcommission Project, in conjunction with the “Inside the Classics” series of the Minnesota Orchestra, is an initiative to bring a major new work to the stage of Orchestra Hall with funding via hundreds of “micro” donations from music lovers across Minnesota and beyond.

SARAH HICKS’ versatile and vibrant musicianship has secured her place in “the next generation of up-and-coming American conductors.” Noted in The New York Times as part of “a new wave of female conductors in their late 20s through early 40s,” she was

ABOUT THE

ARTISTS

BUGS BUNNY is one of the most recognized cartoon characters in the world, whose signature phrase “What’s Up, Doc?” has long since entered the English language.

Bugs’ first ‘reel’ appearance in front of his soon-to-be-adoring public was in A Wild Hare directed by Tex Avery. Since then, Bugs’ zany antics in hundreds of cartoon favorites have made him a legend throughout the world.

This cool, collected, carrot-chomping rabbit is the unequivocal superstar of the Looney Tunes family. With never a ‘hare’ out of place he always manages to outsmart his adversaries, whoever they may be. He’s a real American icon who has graced the TV and cinema screens the world over.

Bugs Bunny’s cartoons have twice been nominated for Academy Awards, and his Knighty Knight Bugs won a coveted Oscar.

Bugs has starred in four films in addition to his hundreds of animated shorts and 21 prime time television specials.

Conductor GEORGE DAUGHERTY is one of the classical music world’s most diverse artists. In addition to his 25-year conducting career which has included appearances with the world’s leading orchestras, ballet companies, opera houses, and concert artists, Daugherty is also an Emmy Award-winning

He has been a frequent guest conductor at the Sydney Opera House since 1996, and in both 2002 and 2005, he returned to guest conduct the Sydney Symphony Orchestra at the Sydney Opera House. In 2010, he returned to the Sydney Symphony at the Opera House for performances of two different programs, and recorded a new CD with the orchestra. Recently, he also made his debuts with the Baltimore Symphony, the Dallas Symphony, the Saint Louis Symphony, Omaha Symphony, Calgary Philharmonic, Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra, West Australia Symphony Orchestra, the Danish

In 2012, he was appointed Music Director of Ballet San Jose, where he conducts nearly 50 performances per season for the company, with Symphony Silicon Valley in the orchestra pit. In summer 2013, he will make his debut conducting the Russian National Orchestra at the internationally acclaimed Napa Valley Festival del Sol, presiding over the reconstruction of a long-lost Fokine ballet with music by Rachmaninoff.

and-film stage production which sold out its extended run at New York’s Gershwin Theatre on Broadway, and has since played to critical acclaim and sold-out houses all over the world.

The Bugs Bunny symphonic concert tradition continued when Daugherty and producing partner David Ka Lik Wong launched a new version, Bugs Bunny at the Symphony, in 2010, with double World Premieres at the Sydney Opera House with the Sydney Symphony, and the Hollywood Bowl with the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

Wong has also produced innovative symphony orchestra concerts for some of the world’s leading orchestras, including the National Symphony, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Royal Philharmonic, the Sydney Opera House, the San Francisco Symphony, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Wales Millennium Centre, Sinfonia Britannia, and many others. Most recently, he produced critically acclaimed Christmas concerts for Canada’s National Arts Centre, and the National Arts Centre Orchestra. He is also Executive Producer and the co-creator of the touring concert Rodgers & Hammerstein on Stage and Screen.

Wong also wrote a number of episodes for the series and story-edited all 80 segments.

Wong is also the producer of the new Water Tower Music CD release of Bugs Bunny at the Symphony.

GO METRO Despite what you may have heard, you can get to many Los Angeles attractions without a car. Metro is the nation’s second-largest public transportation agency, operating 2,200 buses and six rail lines, including a subway that can take you from downtown to Hollywood in about 15 minutes.

Whether you’re interested in seeing stars along the legendary Hollywood Walk of Fame, catching rays at Santa Monica Beach or touring any number of L.A. landmarks, Metro can take you there.

Where to Start

Use the Trip Planner at metro.net or call 323.GO.METRO for customized travel itineraries.

Note that some popular attractions served by Metro Rail are listed to the right.

Fares

Metro’s base fare is $1.50. Pay each time you board a Metro bus (drivers don’t carry change, so you’ll need exact fare) or at a self-service ticket vending machine when entering Metro Rail stations.

For complete information, check metro.net.

Two children under the age of 5 may travel free with each fare-paying adult.

Eating and drinking is not permitted on any Metro bus or train.

Note: Metro has installed turnstiles at many Metro Rail stations; others simply operate on the honor system. However, fare inspectors randomly check passengers for valid tickets or passes. You may never be checked, but if you are and you don’t have proof of valid fare, the inspector may issue a citation and you may be fined.

Hours

Most bus and rail lines start around 4 a.m. and keep running past midnight. But they’re less frequent in the late evening, so check the timetables at metro.net regarding your return trip.
