SUMMARY:Performance:Telegraph Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Telegraph Quartet\, String Quartet in Residence\nwith SMTD faculty Malcolm Tulip\, narrator and Amy I-Lin Cheng\, piano \nand guest young artists Anna Sykes\, viola and Katarina Elise\, cello\n\nJoin the Telegraph Quartet for the first of two concerts celebrating the music of the Second Viennese School and those they influenced with their daring experimentation during the first half of the 20th century. With the support of the Chamber Music Guest Artist Mentor Residency\, Schönberg scholar and violist\, Henk Guittart\, has worked extensively with the Telegraph Quartet and our guest artists to present the works on this program.\n\nWe'll explore two monumental works by the founder of that school\, Arnold Schönberg\, that span the full breadth of his musical journey – first with an early work form 1899\, his late-romantic and deeply expressive *Verklärte Nacht* or \"Transfigured Night\,\" a tone poem for string sextet inspired by the poem of the same name by Richard Dehmel. On the other side of his career\, the *Ode to Napoleon Buonaparte* of 1942 is a dramatic chamber music recitation\, setting Lord Byron's eponymous poem lambasting Napoleon's tyranny and defeat\, but intended by Schönberg to be a defiant statement against at the despotism and horror of Hitler's tyranny. Starting the program will be the dazzling and colorful String Quartet No. 3 by Jamaican-British composer Eleanor Alberga\, who in this specific work\, experimented with the 12-tone method invented by Arnold Schönberg\, melding that musical vocabulary into her own deeply individual aesthetic and adding yet another unique voice at the end of the century to a style that would become utterly pervasive during the 20th century.\n\nPROGRAM\nEleanor Alberga - String Quartet No. 3\nArnold Schönberg - *Ode to Napoleon Buonaparte* for String Quartet\, Piano and Reciter\n-intermission-\nArnold Schönberg - *Verklärte Nacht* for String Sextet\n\nThe award-winning Telegraph String Quartet – featuring Eric Chin and Joseph Maile (violins)\, Pei-Ling Lin (viola)\, and Jeremiah Shaw (cello) – is engaged in a three-year artist residency at the U-M School of Music\, Theatre & Dance.\n\nABOUT THE ENSEMBLE:\n\nhttps://www.telegraphquartet.com

SUMMARY:Performance:THE LONG FALL
DESCRIPTION:*You are falling\, but you never land.*\n\nTHE LONG FALL imagines a world suspended in contradiction – a space of constant motion where characters shift form\, time loops without resolution\, and realities collide. Inspired by the existential absurdity of being alive\, the failures of assigned roles\, and the blurred boundaries between play and performance\, the work explores the combustible territory between childhood imagination\, adult consequence\, and theatrical illusion.\n\nWhat does it mean when children play at war\, or love\, or death – enacting dramas they barely understand? And what happens when those same dramas become real\, lived\, or staged? Is the stage any less real than the battlefield\, the bedroom\, or the family dinner table? THE LONG FALL lives in this surreal overlap\, where innocence and impact are tangled\, where performance is both survival and surrender.\n\nSet against an original electronic score by Marshall Chadbourne\, the myth of the American mission – of family\, of purpose\, of safety – fractures. No promise can truly be kept. No victory comes without shadow. And still\, we try. We fail. We try again. Our lives tumble forward in the chaotic current of time\, and even as we fall through space\, we brazenly and optimistically reach for one another. These exquisite moments of connection\, caught between descent and delay\, are the flashes of meaning against all odds.\n\nMy process begins with the body. Behavior that rises into high physicality becomes a portal into the surreal\, emotional\, and mythic. The pressure between bodies becomes a kind of truth-teller. The audience is present – not just as observers\, but as witnesses\, co-dreamers\, and sometimes accomplices.\n\nCreation is collaborative\, volatile\, and alive. I bring movement\, text\, images\, themes\, and tasks\; the ensemble brings their interpretations – wild\, grounded\, broken\, ecstatic. We construct a world from fragments and contradictions. A world that drifts between war-torn realities and absurd dream-states. Where the nuclear family is both icon and ruin. Where love is earnest and unspeakable. Where we fail beautifully\, collapsing forward\, haunted and held.\n\nTHE LONG FALL does not seek to tell a linear story\, but to inhabit a state – a falling\, looping\, breaking\, trying. It is a meditation on fragile persistence\, on the way human beings continue inside impossible conditions. How even when the promise has been broken\, the mission has failed\, the family has splintered\, we keep playing. Over and over\, bending time into childlike loops: Are we there yet?\n\nCAST & COLLABORATORS\nConcept and Direction: Shannon Gillen\nChoreography: Jason Cianciulli and Shannon Gillen\, in collaboration with the performers\nChoreographic Assistant: Katherine Kiessling\nPerformance: Jason Cianciulli\, Tzveta Kassabova\, Katherine Kiessling\, and Samy Navarez\nGuest Performance: Ruby Clay\, Audrey De Guia\, Emerson Forbes\, Leah Kropp\, Rachel McNaughton\, Ava Menzel\, Melisa Orduna\, Olga Rabetskaya\, Jessica Serres\, Caitlyn Wade\, Angelica White\nSound Score: Marshall Chadbourne with voice over by Sasha Lipinski\nLighting Design: Jess Fialko\nSet Design: Jungah Han\nOriginal Text: Shannon Gillen with excerpts from Beckett's 'Happy Days'\nBackstage Operations Manager: Tiff Crutchfield

SUMMARY:Performance:Both Sides Now: The Music and Lives of Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen
DESCRIPTION:“Two singer-songwriters sit on the edge of a cliff…”\n\nWith these words\, we are drawn into the world of Both Sides Now - a theatrical concert that explores the music and lives of long-time friends and one-time lovers\, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen. Created by\, and starring Robbie Schaefer and Danielle Wertz\, the cabaret-style performance traverses decades alongside songs such as A Case of You\, Hallelujah\, Big Yellow Taxi\, Suzanne\, and many more. Both Sides Now is at once a piece of the 60’s and 70’s\, and of right now -- offering us a story about the messiness of being human\, of lives persistently lived at the edge of growth\, and of finding the courage to turn toward one another\, again and again.\n\nRobbie Schaefer:\nRobbie is a rabbi\, singer-songwriter and theatre/film artist. The guitarist and songwriter for the indie folk band Eddie From Ohio has several solo releases as well\, including the 2023 single Under the Sun.\n\nHe is currently at work on a new musical\, The Blue Poppy\, an Irish-Jewish ghost story written in collaboration with Scottish playwright Grace Barnes\, and Songs From The Wilderness\, a new album of Jewish musical midrash (interpretation)\, due for release in early 2026. \n\nDanielle Wertz:\nDanielle is a storyteller\, collaborator\, jazz musician\, composer and arranger. After being named a 2015 Thelonious Monk International Jazz Vocals Competition semi-finalist\, Danielle independently released her debut album\, Intertwined\, which ranked #4 on Capital Bop's list of \"Best DC Jazz Albums of 2017.\" That same year she placed 2nd in the Ella Fitzgerald Jazz Vocal Competition and 3rd in the Mid-Atlantic Jazz Vocal Competition.\n\nIn 2023 Danielle released her sophomore album\, Other Side. With this project she made a quantum leap as a composer and conceptualist. The album pairs her original compositions with carefully crafted arrangements of standards from the Great American Songbook. Jazziz called the album “expressive and polished” and Jazz Weekly noticed a “Joni Mitchell’d tenderness to her material.”
