SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CONTESTED: Libretto Workshop Reading and Audience Response
DESCRIPTION:A public libretto reading of a new opera-in-progress\, *Contested: The Monument and the Shadow*\, by librettist Anita Gonzalez with composer Joel Thompson. Moving between past and present\, the opera explores the construction and removal of Confederate monuments in the American South\, examining how societies preserve\, challenge\, and reckon with contested histories. It brings conflicting perspectives into dialogue and invites audiences to consider whose memories are preserved\, how historical narratives evolve\, and what it means to confront the legacy of the past.\n\nAudience members will have the opportunity to respond to the work and provide feedback to the creative team. Come to be a part of the creative process and to get a sneak peak at this new opera in development!\n\nThe University of Michigan Office of the Vice President Research and the Arts Initiative\, Initiative for Democracy & Civic Empowerment\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance (SMTD) Researching\, Catalyzing\, Innovating (RCI) Research Grant program\, U. S. at 250 program\, and Raoul Wallenberg Institute have all funded *Contested*'s development.

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Blow Up\" - Work-in-Progress Dance Showing
DESCRIPTION:*Blow Up* is a site-specific project exploring immigration\, uprooting\, adaptation\, and the pressure to succeed in a new environment. At the center of the work are inflated boats – objects that can represent movement and transition\, but also aspiration\, instability\, protection\, and the fragile illusion of success. This work-in-progress showing presents material developed during a 10-day creative process with students\, using inflated boats as symbols of movement\, instability\, aspiration\, and transformation.\n\nJoin us on September 15 at 7:30 pm at the Dance Building\, Studio 1 to experience this new iteration of *Blow Up* and the discoveries that emerged through the collaborative research process.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Music as Medicine: Training Pianists for Healthcare Settings
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Piano hosts a guest lecture by Todd Van Kekerix\, Assistant Professor of Piano and Piano Pedagogy at the University of Houston and Artist-in-Residence\, Center for Performing Arts Medicine at Houston Methodist Hospital.\n\n*What does it take to bring music to the bedside - and do it well?*\n \nDrawing on his work at Houston Methodist Hospital\, Todd Van Kekerix explores the artistic\, interpersonal\, and practical skills pianists need to serve effectively in healthcare settings. Patient stories\, video examples\, feedback\, and outcomes data make the work concrete while revealing what is rewarding\, surprising\, and challenging at the bedside. \n\nThe session considers repertoire flexibility\, lead-sheet realization\, on-the-spot arranging\, emotional presence\, and bedside manner\, along with the practical realities of identifying hospital partners\, understanding Artist-in-Residence structures\, preparing for patient interactions\, and navigating liability and logistics. \n\nA live request-and-response demonstration will show how musical decisions are made in real time\, followed by discussion of how these capacities can be cultivated through studio class\, pedagogy coursework\, and community engagement. The lecture concludes by asking how a broader definition of the pianist might reshape training and professional opportunity.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Vijay Gupta Violin Master Class
DESCRIPTION:Guest artist Vijay Gupta presents a violin master class. This event gives SMTD students an opportunity to work with an esteemed performer and musical advocate\, while gleaning insights from his experiences as a soloist\, orchestral musician\, writer and public speaker.\n\nPresented with generous support from the Sally Fleming Master Class Series. Free and open to the public.\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTIST\n\nVIJAY GUPTA is an acclaimed violinist and inspired storyteller who explores the human condition through music. \nVijay has had many chapters to his career: as a child prodigy\, he debuted Carnegie Hall at age 8\, made his international solo debut with the Israel Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta at age 11\, and became the youngest violinist ever to join the Los Angeles Philharmonic at age 19.\n\nIn 2011\, Gupta founded  Street Symphony\, the nonprofit that brings live music into shelters\, clinics\, county jails\, state hospitals\, and reentry programs across Los Angeles. Over fifteen years\, Street Symphony has delivered more than 3\,000 performances and workshops. *The New Yorker* called it \"a formidable new model for how musical institutions should engage with the world around them.\" In 2018\, Vijay received the MacArthur Fellowship and was listed on *TIME*'s 100 Next list.  \n\nIn addition to his work with Street Symphony\, Gupta performs as a soloist and as a founding member of the Darshan Piano Trio. He holds degrees in biology and violin performance and completed graduate study at the Yale School of Music. His three TED Talks have reached millions of viewers. As a speaker represented by the Lavin Agency\, he has addressed audiences at the Aspen Institute\, Mayo Clinic\, Harvard Business School\, the American Medical Association\, and the U.S. Psychiatric Congress\, among others. \n\nVijay’s new memoir *Restrung* tells his story from his earliest memories\, to his burnout and collapse of being a classical musician\, to transformation through music. It was published by Grand Central / Da Capo on June 9\, 2026. *The Los Angeles Times* has called his playing \"brilliant\, bold and gripping\,\" and *Publishers Weekly* writes that his memoir *Restrung* illustrates how music \"reaches the broken places within us and the broken places between us\" — \"a virtuoso performance.\"

SUMMARY:Performance:Come from Away
DESCRIPTION:*Come from Away* is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander\, Newfoundland\, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover\, when 38 planes\, carrying thousands of people from around the globe\, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11\, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers\, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music\, an open bar\, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.\n\n*Come from Away* has earned global success with 37 award nominations and 13 wins\, most notably Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards and Outstanding Musical at the 2017 Drama Desk Awards. The show’s global presence resonates with audiences as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together.\n\nBook\, Music\, and Lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein\nDirected by Vincent J.

SUMMARY:Performance:Come from Away
DESCRIPTION:*Come from Away* is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander\, Newfoundland\, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover\, when 38 planes\, carrying thousands of people from around the globe\, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11\, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers\, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music\, an open bar\, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.\n\n*Come from Away* has earned global success with 37 award nominations and 13 wins\, most notably Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards and Outstanding Musical at the 2017 Drama Desk Awards. The show’s global presence resonates with audiences as an uplifting reminder of humanity’s ability to come together.\n\nBook\, Music\, and Lyrics by Irene Sankoff and David Hein\nDirected by Vincent J.

SUMMARY:Performance:University Symphony Orchestra
DESCRIPTION:Are our life-journeys predetermined by the unstoppable forces of fate or can we shape our own destiny? Two of the most beloved pieces in all of orchestra music seem to provide two contrasting answers. The striking overture to Verdi’s *La Forza del Destino* (The Force of Destiny)\, portrays a dark account of human struggle against circumstances and fate. Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony tells a different story during a dramatic journey that overcomes its fate motive\, culminating in a magnificent and uplifting anthem of human triumph. Hailed by the *New York Times* as “a brilliant soloist\,” U-M faculty member Fabiola Kim\, is featured in the world premiere of the Violin Concerto by Quinn Mason\, the 7th commission of the Michigan Orchestra Repertoire for Equity (MORE) initiative\, founded in 2020 by USO Music Director Kenneth Kiesler.                                                      \n\nKenneth Kiesler\, conductor\nFabiola Kim\, violin (Mason)\n\nPROGRAM\n\nOverture to *La forza del destino*                                        \nGiuseppe Verdi\n\nViolin Concerto (world premiere)                                             \nQuinn Mason        \n\nSymphony No. 5                                                   \nPyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky\n\nConcert Duration: 1 hour and 40 minutes	\n\n–––\n*Parking / Traffic alert for attendees:*\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/2026-construction

SUMMARY:Performance:Come from Away
DESCRIPTION:*Come from Away* is based on the true story of the time when the isolated community of Gander\, Newfoundland\, played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned into an international sleepover\, when 38 planes\, carrying thousands of people from around the globe\, were diverted to Gander’s airstrip on September 11\, 2001. Undaunted by culture clashes and language barriers\, the people of Gander cheered the stranded travelers with music\, an open bar\, and the recognition that we’re all part of a global family.\n\n*Come from Away* has earned global success with 37 award nominations and 13 wins\, most notably Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards and Outstanding Musical at the 2017 Drama Desk Awards.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | A History of Unowned Dance: Bodies in Transmission
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in East Hall 4448. We recommend entering East Hall using the Church Street entrance and taking the elevator to the 4th floor. This event is in-person only and will not be livestreamed or recorded.\n\nThis lecture examines how dance is transformed through embodied transmission rather than preserved as a fixed tradition. Drawing on more than three decades of artistic practice between New York and Japan\, Yasuko Yokoshi reflects on how choreography\, Nihon Buyo\, and Noh have continually reshaped her body and artistic practice. Through performance examples and the ongoing dojojiproject\, the lecture considers transformation not as the opposite of the archive\, but as the very condition through which dance survives.\n\nYasuko Yokoshi is a choreographer and dancer whose work explores embodied transmission\, dance lineage\, and the unstable nature of dance as a living archive. Based in New York from 1996 to 2015\, she received two New York Dance and Performance “Bessie” Awards (2003\, 2006)\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, a NYFA Artist Fellowship\, support from Creative Capital\, and a Foundation for Contemporary Arts Award. Her works have been presented internationally\, often engaging the space between contemporary dance and Japanese traditional performing arts.\n\nThis lecture is co-sponsored by the Department of Dance. To learn more about this department\, please visit https://smtd.umich.edu/department/dance/.\n\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*

SUMMARY:Performance:Telegraph Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed Telegraph Quartet\, now in residency at the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, performs a recital.\n\nABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET\nErin Chin & Joseph Maile\, violins\nPei-Ling Lin\, viola\nJeremiah Shaw\, cello\n\nThe TELEGRAPH QUARTET formed in 2013 with an equal passion for standard and contemporary chamber music repertoire. Described by the *San Francisco Chronicle* as “…an incredibly valuable addition to the cultural landscape” and “powerfully adept… with a combination of brilliance and subtlety\,” the Telegraph Quartet was awarded the prestigious 2016 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the Grand Prize at the 2014 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition. The quartet is currently the quartet-in-residence at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe quartet has performed in New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center\, San Francisco’s Herbst Theatre\, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s *Chamber Masters Series*\, and at festivals including the Chautauqua Institute\, Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival\, and the Emilia Romagna Festival. They have collaborated with pianists Leon Fleisher and Simone Dinnerstein\; cellists Norman Fischer and Bonnie Hampton\; violinist Ian Swensen\; and the St. Lawrence Quartet and Henschel Quartett. A fervent champion of 20th- and 21st-century repertoire\, the Telegraph Quartet has premiered works by Osvaldo Golijov\, John Harbison\, Robert Sirota\, and Richard Festinger.\n\nIn 2023\, the Telegraph Quartet released *20th Century Vantage Points: Divergent Paths*\, the first in a trilogy of recordings on Azica Records exploring the string quartets of the first half of the 20th century – an era of music that the group has felt especially called to perform since its formation. *Divergent Paths* features two works that (to the best of the quartet’s knowledge) have never been recorded on the same album before: Maurice Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major and Arnold Schoenberg’s String Quartet no. 1 in D minor\, op. 7. The quartet’s new album\, *20th Century Vantage Points: Edge of the Storm* is out now on Azica Records.\n\nhttp://www.telegraphquartet.com

SUMMARY:Performance:Mazurka: Dance of a Polish Soul\, Voice of the World
DESCRIPTION:The mazurka\, one of Poland’s most distinctive musical  dance forms\, continues to inspire composers far beyond its traditional origins. While often associated with Frédéric Chopin\, this recital explores the broader and evolving story of the mazurka through the voices of both celebrated and lesser-known composers from Poland and around the world.\n\nThe program presents a diverse collection of works that reveal how composers have transformed this Polish dance into a vehicle for artistic expression\, cultural identity\, and contemporary creativity. It includes mazurkas by Karol Szymanowski\, whose innovative language expanded the genre in the twentieth century\, as well as works by composers inspired by Chopin’s legacy\, including Zygmunt Stojowski\, Julian and Nathalie Janotha. The program also features mazurkas by lesser-known Polish composers such as Wojciech Kilar and Mikołaj Piotr Górecki\, whose individual musical voices offer new perspectives on the evolution of the genre. Special attention is given to the contributions of female composers\, whose works enrich the mazurka’s continuing legacy.\n\nAlongside these historical works\, the program features newly commissioned mazurkas created for the international 21st Mazurkas project—a visionary artistic initiative conceived\, developed\, and realized by pianist Anna Kijanowska. Bringing together composers from Poland\, Europe\, North America\, South America\, and New Zealand\, the project presents the mazurka as a living international form. These contemporary works demonstrate the remarkable adaptability of the genre\, blending elements of folk tradition\, personal expression\, modern compositional techniques\, and diverse cultural influences. Each composer offers a unique perspective\, transforming the mazurka into a global musical language while maintaining its connection to its Polish roots. Among the contributors is Matthew Bengtson\, Associate Professor of Piano Literature at the University of Michigan\, whose commissioned mazurka forms part of this international collection.\n\nAll  of these new works were written especially for pianist Anna Kijanowska and recorded on the award-winning DUX album 21st Mazurkas (DUX 2149). The recording received the Platinum Prize at the Golden European Piano Awards 2025\, together with the Special Regional Representative Award (Cieszyn\, Poland) and the Artist of the Month distinction.\n\nThrough a dialogue between historical voices and contemporary creators\, *Mazurka: Dance of a Polish Soul\, Voice of the World* celebrates the mazurka as a living art form—one that continues to evolve across generations\, cultures\, and continents\, while remaining deeply connected to Poland’s rich musical heritage.\n\n*This event is supported in part by the Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia\, and partially funded by a scholarship from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage\, Republic of Poland.*

SUMMARY:Performance:\"Don't Let The Sun\": Chamber Choir & University Choir
DESCRIPTION:WORLD PREMIERE\n\nComposer Theodore Wiprud and librettist Richard Wesley have created an oratorio examining a widespread expression of racism in America\, documented in the landmark book *Sundown Towns* by the late sociologist and historian James Loewen.\n\nConducted by Director of University Choirs Eugene Rogers\, *Don’t Let the Sun*\, for chorus\, vocal soloists\, and orchestra\, will run approximately 90 minutes (plus intermission). It tells the story of “sundown towns” where residents drove out or actively excluded specific groups from residing there (from being in a town after sunset) through ordinances\, signs\, and acts of violence. Sundown towns excluded Black people\, and in some cases\, Chinese Americans\, Jewish people\, Native Americans\, Latinas/os and other racialized groups. Since the 19th century these towns have been prevalent throughout the U.S. and especially in the Midwest\, West\, and East.\n\nThese policies did not completely disappear over time. The attitudes that drove them morphed into housing “covenants\,” redlining\, discrimination within the post-war FHA and discrimination in the granting of bank loans. The results of these decisions and policies haunt our country to this very day. *Don’t Let the Sun* will shine a light on this difficult chapter in America’s ever-expanding history\, and help audiences engage productively with “hard” histories.\n\nMr. Loewen’s *Sundown Towns: A Hidden Dimension of American Racism* is the definitive history of these phenomena. Another source is the “History and Social Justice” website launched by Dr. Loewen\, which has had nearly one million visitors over the last three years\, and continues to amass cases and first-hand accounts. Librettist Richard Wesley’s text is inspired by the voices of individuals impacted by sundown towns and more recent policies\, examining the harm experienced by both the excluded and the excluders\; and recent efforts by many sundown towns to reckon with their past and shape a better future.\n\n–––\n*Parking / Traffic alert for attendees:*\nhttps://smtd.umich.edu/2026-construction\n\nABOUT THE GUEST ARTISTS\n\nTHEODORE WIPRUD is a composer\, an educator\, and a researcher on the musical community’s work toward equity and inclusion. Many of his works address social issues\, including vocal works like *American Journal* (Robert Hayden) and *A Georgia Song* (Maya Angelou)\; and orchestral works like his Violin Concerto *“Katrina”\; Wind of Many Voices*\, responding to the troubled history of South Dakota\; and a second Violin Concerto *“on the brink”* exploring climate grief and climate action.  \n\nRICHARD WESLEY is a playwright and screenwriter whose many plays deal with social-historical moments. He wrote the libretto for Anthony Davis’ Pulitzer Prize-winning opera *Central Park Five*. Mr. Wesley has received numerous awards including the NAACP Image Award for Best Picture (for *Uptown Saturday Night*) and the National Black Theater Festival’s August Wilson Playwright Award. He teaches at New York University.

DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed Telegraph Quartet\, now in residency at the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, performs a recital.\n\nABOUT TELEGRAPH QUARTET\nErin Chin & Joseph Maile\, violins\nPei-Ling Lin\, viola\nJeremiah Shaw\, cello\n\nThe TELEGRAPH QUARTET formed in 2013 with an equal passion for standard and contemporary chamber music repertoire. Described by the *San Francisco Chronicle* as “…an incredibly valuable addition to the cultural landscape” and “powerfully adept… with a combination of brilliance and subtlety\,” the Telegraph Quartet was awarded the prestigious 2016 Walter W. Naumburg Chamber Music Award and the Grand Prize at the 2014 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition. The quartet is currently the quartet-in-residence at the University of Michigan.\n\nThe quartet has performed in New York City’s Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center\, San Francisco’s Herbst Theatre\, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music’s *Chamber Masters Series*\, and at festivals including the Chautauqua Institute\, Kneisel Hall Chamber Music Festival\, and the Emilia Romagna Festival. They have collaborated with pianists Leon Fleisher and Simone Dinnerstein\; cellists Norman Fischer and Bonnie Hampton\; violinist Ian Swensen\; and the St. Lawrence Quartet and Henschel Quartett. A fervent champion of 20th- and 21st-century repertoire\, the Telegraph Quartet has premiered works by Osvaldo Golijov\, John Harbison\, Robert Sirota\, and Richard Festinger.\n\nIn 2023\, the Telegraph Quartet released *20th Century Vantage Points: Divergent Paths*\, the first in a trilogy of recordings on Azica Records exploring the string quartets of the first half of the 20th century – an era of music that the group has felt especially called to perform since its formation. *Divergent Paths* features two works that (to the best of the quartet’s knowledge) have never been recorded on the same album before: Maurice Ravel’s String Quartet in F Major and Arnold Schoenberg’s String Quartet no. 1 in D minor\, op. 7. The quartet’s new album\, *20th Century Vantage Points: Edge of the Storm* is out now on Azica Records.\n\nhttp://www.telegraphquartet.com

Intertwined with this plot is the witty banter of Benedick and Beatrice\, who are drawn to and repulsed by each other in equal measure.  \n\nWritten by William Shakespeare\nDirected by Jess Bogart\n

SUMMARY:Performance:The Elixir of Love (L'Elisir d'Amore)
DESCRIPTION:The handsome young peasant Nemorino is hopelessly in love with Adina\, but she barely gives him a glance. In fact\, she seems enamored with the head of the local garrison\, Sgt. Belcore\, even going so far as to promise to marry him immediately. A desperate Nemorino resorts to “magic\,” seeking help from Dr. Dulcamara\, a charming con man\, who guarantees him that one drink of a mysterious elixir will make Adina fall in love with him within 24 hours. In order to get the elixir (actually just an ordinary Bordeaux) to work faster and thereby prevent Adina’s impending marriage\, Nemorino downs the entire bottle in one gulp. With charming twists and turns\, love blossoms in all the right places.\n\nOne of the most popular works of the opera repertoire\, *The Elixir of Love* has been an audience favorite since its debut in 1832. Composed by Donizetti in just two weeks\, the opera skillfully balances comedy with poignancy and simplicity with detailed invention in a fresh\, exhilarating example of bel canto. The score is filled with delightful arias\, duets\, and ensembles\, including two hauntingly beautiful tenor arias for Nemorino\, “Una furtiva lagrima” and “Quanto è bella.” The 19th-century Italian equivalent of a Broadway musical\, *The Elixir of Love* is a delightful tale about the innocence of love that is sure to make audiences smile.\n\nSung in Italian with Eng. Supertitles\nWith the University Philharmonia Orchestra\n\nComposed by Gaetano Donizetti\nLibretto by Felice Romani\nConducted by Kirk Severtson\nDirected by Chía Patiño

SUMMARY:Performance:Murakami by the Sea: An original work inspired by the work of Haruki Murakami
DESCRIPTION:Murakami by the Sea is a full evening-length devised work inspired by novels and short stories by Haruki Murakami. Placed within a constantly evolving environment of cardboard and broken tires the production creates a surreal\, emotionally charged yet often humorous world through an immersive blend of movement\, spoken word\, fantastical props\, music\, and evocative design\, where some of the urgent questions of our time are intertwined. How much do we know and care about the world we live in? What are the ethics and aesthetics of war? How does our relationship to other human beings\, animals\, objects\, and the environment shape? Can we dissolve the boundaries between self and the nonhuman world? What does solitude mean and how can we build a community? How can we remember what is precious to us and how can forgetting make us heal our wounds? The work is directed by Tzveta Kassabova with the cast and is shaped by the dramaturg Teresa Kovacs.

SUMMARY:Performance:Murakami by the Sea: An original work inspired by the work of Haruki Murakami
DESCRIPTION:Murakami by the Sea is a full evening-length devised work inspired by novels and short stories by Haruki Murakami. Placed within a constantly evolving environment of cardboard and broken tires the production creates a surreal\, emotionally charged yet often humorous world through an immersive blend of movement\, spoken word\, fantastical props\, music\, and evocative design\, where some of the urgent questions of our time are intertwined. How much do we know and care about the world we live in? What are the ethics and aesthetics of war? How does our relationship to other human beings\, animals\, objects\, and the environment shape? Can we dissolve the boundaries between self and the nonhuman world? What does solitude mean and how can we build a community? How can we remember what is precious to us and how can forgetting make us heal our wounds? The work is directed by Tzveta Kassabova with the cast and is shaped by the dramaturg Teresa Kovacs.
