LETTER FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

At the top of this year, The Town Hall celebrated the 75th Anniversary of the legendary night that Dizzy Gillespie and Chano Pozo brought Bebop and Afro-Cuban rhythms to the hall. Here on December 22, 1947, they cemented their beloved collaboration into a brand new genre called Afro-Cuban Jazz. To close out this year, we return to bebop, this time with the genre’s crash landing with one of Japan’s great art forms- anime, and with one of the art form’s greatest creators- the inimitable Yoko Kanno. It is difficult to overstate the impact of Cowboy Bebop’s score on anime and on composition at large. The beloved anime, with its inventive storytelling, lovable characters and unmatched visuals took the world by storm and has long been heralded as one of the best anime series ever. Twenty-five years later and young people still dress up as Spike and Ed for Halloween and at various conventions. How rare is it, however, for the general public to hold music from a series so dear that 25 years later, fans still eagerly await vinyl rereleases, watch online live performances in the hundred thousands and stream tracks in the millions? For those of you who don’t know why, you’ll find out tonight. The Town Hall partnered tonight with multiple institutions who understood the importance of presenting this anniversary live score event. Crunchyroll, Bandai Namco and Anime NYC joined forces with The Town Hall to celebrate this incredible series and its score with the seriousness and affection it deserves and inspires. We can think of no better artistic partner than Macy Schmidt and the all-female ensemble, The Sinfonietta, who have been pioneers in the growing field of live score concerts. Between Macy, her staff, Michael Shingo Crawford, Black Ink Presents, and The Town Hall’s very own Gloria Lee, the artistic process has been a collaborative project of selfless abandon and total devotion. As we worked on this project and our team grew, we came to learn that there are no casual fans of “Cowboy Bebop.” For me, for Selena at Black Ink, for many others who worked on this project and for many, many of you reading this today, I know this to be true. To watch the series is to love it. As The Town Hall expands our programming and what we consider concert music, we are turning to genres and mediums we haven’t presented before. Great composers have worked with materials of all sorts over the ages. We as listeners and curators must let our ears lead us regardless of the vehicle. If we do, we may find ourselves exploring bebop, rock and the blues on a random Thursday in November.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Japanese anime TV series Cowboy Bebop has been hailed as a breakthrough animated television series and championed as “a new genre unto itself.” A critical and commercial success, it has been praised as a landmark anime and credited with introducing the genre to a wider audience of Western viewers. A crucial part of its success was its music, a wildly imaginative and eclectic score that added context and layers of depth to the action on the screen. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Cowboy Bebop’s premiere, The Town Hall and Crunchyroll, the leading anime streaming brand, present the music of Cowboy Bebop live performed by The Sinfonietta, an all-women and majority women-of-color orchestra led by Macy Schmidt on November 16.

The music for the 26 episodes that comprise the series was composed by Yoko Kanno, who formed the jazz and blues band Seatbelts to perform the music for the series. “The experience at Town Hall will be watching episodes from the show with the music score played live by the orchestra,” notes Schmidt. “Town Hall has selected a number of episodes from Cowboy Bebop, and we’ll be playing the score to the film live synched up to the visual. The film-concert model has been done, but here it’s being done with anime and something that stretches so many genres musically. That’s part of what’s so exciting about this particular project. I think it’ll be particularly pioneering for people to come and see and hear.”

The Town Hall conceived the program, says Melay Araya, the venue’s new Artistic Director. “We’re expanding what gets done at the Hall and what is considered serious music. Yoko Kanno is a brilliant composer. We wanted to honor the 25th anniversary of Cowboy Bebop, chose a date near AnimeNYC, and reached out to Kanno, Crunchyroll, and The Sinfonietta. Folks perform this music, but it has never been done in this format.”

Cowboy Bebop is set in 2071. An accident has made Earth almost uninhabitable, and humanity has colonized most of the planets and moons of the solar system. The series follows the adventures of a group of bounty hunters (also called “Cowboys”) on contract to chase criminals and capture them alive in return for a reward. Their battered spaceship is called Bebop.

Searching for a fair description, reviewers suggested references to westerns, film noir, and sci-fi — with a touch of comedy. In a previous interview director Shinichirō Watanabe noted that her approach was a “big hit” with Cowboy Bebop. Watanabe was inspired by Kanno’s work, which led him to create new scenes, which in turn nudged Kanno to write more music. This counterpoint between the narrative and the music, not a standard approach, gives the visuals and the soundtrack a distinct energy. For Schmidt, who has been watching the series, “the one thing that’s already very clear to me is that Cowboy Bebop has created its own genre,” she says. “It’s so genre-bending. You can’t put it in a box, this genre or that, and I think it makes it a pioneer in its own space.” THANK YOU

A FEW WORDS FROM YOKO KANNO

「カウボーイビバップの音楽は私にとってどんな存在か。」あの時＜1995年ころ＞、あの場所にいたことで生まれた奇跡的なセッション。音楽が大好きな監督が、魅力的で自由なテーマを歌い始めた。私の近くには素晴らしい音楽家や歌い手がたくさんいた。多くの人は今も現役ですが、何人かは星に還りました。スパイクたちがビバップ号にたまたま乗り合わせたように、私もあの宇宙旅行を楽しみ、今も醒めない夢の中にいます。 "What makes this score special to you?" At that time, in 1995, a miraculous session was born from being in that place. A director who loves music started singing a song fascinatingly and freely. There were lots of wonderful musicians and singers. Many are still active, but some have returned to the stars. Just as Spike and the crew happened to be on the Bebop, I enjoyed that space trip and am still in a dream that I can't wake up from.

「どのようにしてビバップの音楽を創作・制作したか。」何度もNYに来て、タクシードライバ－、屋台の店員さん、壁の落書き、街でドラムを叩く人、道路から上がる白い煙や、工事現場の匂いなど、たくさんのものから影響を受けました。ヘリコプターに乗り、長いリムジンにも乗って、オペラハウスにも行きました。ラフィングブルがいるような、ネイティブアメリカンの聖地にも行きました。そして、多くの音楽をNYで録音しました。赤土の色や、煙の匂い、いろいろなスパイスが混じった香りが、ビバップの音楽には入っています。 "What was your process in composing Cowboy Bebop?" I have been to NY many times and am affected by lots of things, such as taxi drivers, food cart clerks, grafﬁti on the walls, people beating drums on the street, white smoke coming up from the street, smell of construction sites. I took helicopter rides, long limousine rides and went to the opera house. I also have been to the Native American's sacred sites, like the one Laughing Bull is in. I have recorded a lot of music in NY. The color of red earth, the smell of smoke, and the aroma of various spices are all in the bebop music.

As of Nov 09, 2023

TOUR THE HISTORIC TOWN HALL Town Hall has played an integral part in the electrifying cultural fabric of New York City for more than 90 years. A group of Suffragists’ fight for the 19th Amendment led them to build a meeting space to educate people on the important issues of the day. During its construction, the 19th Amendment was passed, and on January 12, 1921 The Town Hall opened its doors and took on a double meaning: as a symbol of the victory sought by its founders, and as a spark for a new, more optimistic climate. In 1921, German composer Richard Strauss performed a series of concerts that cemented the Hall’s reputation as an ideal venue for musical performances. Since, Town Hall has been home to countless musical milestones: The US debuts of Strauss, and Isaac Stern; Marian Anderson’s first New York recital; in 1945, Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker introduced bebop to the world; Bob Dylan’s first major concert in ‘63; and much much more.
