Bonds are broken in this evening of two rarely performed, one-act operatic gems, written by Black American composers.

“Rise for Freedom” composed by Adolphus Hailstork, with libretto by David Gonzalez
And “Highway 1, U.S.A.” composed by William Grant Still, with libretto by Verna Arvey

The Department of Voice and the University Philharmonia Orchestra
Music Direction by Kirk Severtson
Stage Direction by Danielle Wright
Sung in English

“Highway 1, U.S.A.” is an intimate family drama that pits brother against brother in a battle about love, jealousy, and greed. Composed by William Grant Still (1895-1978) with a libretto by his wife, Verna Arvey (1910-1987), “Highway 1” received its premiere in 1963 and was rarely staged until it was produced by the Opera Theatre of Saint Louis in 2021. This one-act opera by the “Dean of African-American Composers” features a sweeping score that brilliantly blends elements of Romanticism, blues, and musical theatre with a classical musical structure.

“Rise for Freedom: The John P. Parker Story” receives its academic premiere with this production, its second ever. Composer Adolphus Hailstork (b. 1941) and librettist David Gonzalez (b. 1956) adapted this dramatic rendering of the life of John P. Parker, an enslaved person who earned enough money to buy his freedom. He went on to establish a foundry in Ripley, Ohio, and held three known patents as an inventor, all while working as an Underground Railroad conductor to ferry hundreds of people escaping from slavery across the Ohio River from Northern Kentucky. “Rise for Freedom” was commissioned in 2007 by the Cincinnati Opera.

Hailstork received his Ph.D. in Composition from Michigan State University and is a professor of composition at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia. Librettist Gonzalez is a professional storyteller, poet, playwright, and musician who has been a Fellow of the Joseph Campbell Foundation and was nominated for a Drama Desk Award. He earned his doctorate in Music Therapy from New York University.

Together, these different operas highlight voices that are underrepresented in the operatic canon. This double bill will run approximately 2 hours, and will be sung in English.


**Please Note: Due to new U-M health and safety guidance, recently updated in January 2022, this indoor, ticketed performance requires audience members to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or present a negative PCR Covid test within 72 hrs of the performance.

Reperforming Alvin Lucier

Stephen Rush, director

PROGRAM
I’m Sitting in a Room (ambisonic version)
Outlines (premiere)
Flaming Lips
Vespers

Alvin Lucier (1931-2021) was an American composer of experimental music and sound installations. He pioneered many areas of music composition and performance, including the notation of performers' physical gestures, the use of brain waves in live performance, the generation of visual imagery by sound in vibrating media, and the evocation of room acoustics for musical purposes. His works include a series of sound installations and works for solo instruments, chamber ensembles, and orchestra in which, by means of close tunings with pure tones, sound waves are caused to spin through space.

This performance will take place in four locations around the Earl V. Moore Building, be prepared to walk between venues

Navajo pianist and composer Connor Chee is known for combining his classical piano training with his Native American heritage. Chee made his Carnegie Hall debut at the age of 12 after winning a gold medal in the World Piano Competition. A graduate of the Eastman School of Music and the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music, Chee’s solo piano music is inspired by traditional Navajo chants and songs.

Chee has released three studio albums of original pieces and piano transcriptions of Navajo music. The Navajo Piano won Best Instrumental Recording at the 16th Annual Native American Music Awards, and his piece “Beginnings” won Best New Age Song. Chee’s most recent release, Scenes from Dinétah, features piano pieces written about elements of Navajo life and culture. It has been accompanied by the release of several music videos filmed on the Navajo reservation, directed by Navajo filmmaker Michael Etcitty Jr. www.wildsaguarorecords.com

The lecture will take place in the Hussey Room in the Michigan League

He is introduced by Zoi Crampton, co-chair of the Native American Student Association (NASA)

The son of an American woman (of Dutch heritage) and a Navajo man, Mark Charles teaches the complexities of American history regarding race, culture, and Christendom in order to help forge a path of healing and conciliation for the nation.

by José Casas

In the shadow of Disneyland lies the El Dorado, a run-down motel for those without permanent housing. Through a series of spoken-word poetry vignettes, five teenage residents share their lives and their dreams as they struggle to survive the challenges of being homeless in America. Written by Assistant Professor José Casas, somebody’s children was a winner of the 2009 Waldo M. and Grace C. Bonderman Playwriting Workshop and was featured in a rehearsed reading at the Indiana Repertory Theatre, Indianapolis. somebody’s children was originally commissioned by Found Spaces Theater Company.

This concert includes the interdisciplinary thesis performance projects of Master of Fine Arts in Dance candidates Duoduo Wang and J'Sun Howard.

Duoduo Wang’s work, entitled "A thread in blood", investigates different orientation strategies of the Chinese diasporic identity and culture in the United States. The work carries lifelong memories and experiences of an old lady who immigrated 40 years ago to Manhattan's Chinatown. The cast of Asian American dancers contribute memories of their own cultural-identical strategies in different chapters of life (Birth, Family, Love, Living, and Death) and also explore the unique boundaries between performance and public spaces. Within a public performance, Wang aims to create an open, protected space in which everyone can express their identity, ethnicity, acculturation strategies, and body statements through physical expression.

​​J’Sun Howard’s "A Particular Embraced Affinity of Veering" is an exploration in understanding how to embody Black Fugitivity, which is radical ways in which Black people subvert time, race, gender, and family history to refuse and flee what society puts on us to navigate systematic racism and injustice. By using movement strategies such as the hold/embrace, circularity, and the fragment, "A Particular Embraced Affinity of Veering" captures the quiet urgency and complexity of deciding to refuse and flee.

This thesis concert is being held in partial fulfillment of the Department of Dance Master of Fine Arts degree requirements. The research for this event is funded in part by the University of Michigan Department of Dance, and the Center for World Performance Studies.

Proof of COVID vaccination required for entry. By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws, orders, ordinances, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show. 

Are You Gone? – the first new album in a decade from Sarah Harmer – is a deeply personal and momentous collection of songs motivated by the beauty of life, the urgency of climate crisis, and the question of loss. The first song “New Low” is more than a return to music for the internationally celebrated singer-songwriter and activist: it is a definition of form, a call-for-uprising in the face of global disaster, at the most critical moment for Harmer to raise her voice – one of the most distinctive in Canadian music. The vitality of "New Low," its heedless pace, sharp guitars and exclamatory horns, bely the passage of time since Harmer’s last record, Oh Little Fire (2010). Nearly twenty years from the release of her debut, You Were Here (2000), Are You Gone brings a close to Harmer's period of musical quietude with a rousing artistic statement, rich in detail and emotion, from the heart and for the spirit. The multi-award-winning platinum-selling musician's long-anticipated sixth album will be released February 2020 on Arts & Crafts.

FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 6:00 PM
Rackham Auditorium

Democracy & Debate presents Emmy® award winning producer and multi-faceted artist, Mike Ellison with Detroit percussionist and producer D-Love for a live performance and interactive discussion: Song for Democracy.

Born in Ethiopia and raised in Reston, Virginia, Ellison fully realized himself as an interdisciplinary artist in Detroit. His music and spoken word draw from myriad life and cultural influences - and are imbued with the musical landscape and traditions of his birth country. His song “Ethiopia: Everything Will be Alright” became a national hit in Ethiopia in 2004 and his most recent music video “WEY FIKIR (Alleh)” addresses the war in Ethiopia raging for over a year through the lens of love and a romance.

Mike’s artistic expression moves beyond the realm of music. His acting credits span film, theater and television with recent appearances on 50 Cent’s STARZ series BMF and NBC’s Chicago Fire.

Driven by the power of art to inspire, inform and provoke dialogue, Mike’s music and words address a range of issues from social justice and civil rights, to the importance of community and collaboration. Join us for an exciting evening as Mike Ellison uses live performance, music and multimedia with Detroit percussionist and producer D-Love to engage with Song For Democracy.

Legendary artist Graham Nash is a two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee - with Crosby, Stills, and Nash and with the Hollies. He was also inducted twice into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame, as a solo artist and with CSN, and he is a GRAMMY Award winner.

Towering above virtually everything that Graham Nash has accomplished in his long and multi-faceted career, stands the litany of songs that he has written and introduced to the soundtrack of the past half-century. His remarkable body of work, beginning with his contributions to the Hollies opus from 1964 to ’68, including “Stop Stop Stop,” “On A Carousel,” and “Carrie Anne,” continues all the way to This Path Tonight (2016), his most recent solo album. Fifteen of his songs are celebrated in the 2018 release, Over the Years…, a 2-disc collection of some of Nash’s best-known works from the past 50 years and more than a dozen unreleased demos and mixes.

The original classic union of Crosby, Stills & Nash (& Young) lasted but twenty months. Yet their songs are lightning rods embedded in our DNA, starting with Nash’s “Marrakesh Express,” “Pre-Road Downs” and “Lady Of the Island,” from the first Crosby, Stills & Nash LP (1969). On CSNY’s Déjà Vu (1970), Nash’s “Teach Your Children” and “Our House” beseeched us to hold love tightly, to fend off the madness that was on its way.

Overlapping CSNY, Nash’s solo career debuted with Songs For Beginners (1971), whose “Chicago/We Can Change the World” and “Military Madness” were fueled by the Long Hot Summer, the trial of the Chicago Eight, and the ongoing Vietnam war. Songs from that LP stayed in Nash’s concert sets for years including “I Used To Be A King” and “Simple Man”. His next album, Wild Tales (1974), addressed (among other issues) unfair jail terms for minor drug offenses (“Prison Song”), unfair treatment of Vietnam vets (“Oh! Camil”) and the unfairness of fame (“You’ll Never Be the Same”).

The most resilient, long-lived and productive partnership to emerge from the CSNY camp launched with the eponymously titled Graham Nash/David Crosby (1972), bookended by Nash’s “Southbound Train” as the opening track and “Immigration Man” as the closer. The duo contributed further to the soundtrack of the ’70s on their back-to-back albums, Wind On the Water (1975) and Whistling Down the Wire (1976).

On the CSN reunion studio LP (1977), Nash took top honors with “Just A Song Before I Go” (written in the space of one hour, and a Top 10 hit single). Lightning struck once more on CSN’s Daylight Again (1982), on which Nash penned their second (and final) Top 10 hit, “Wasted On the Way,” lamenting the energy, time and love lost by the group due to years of internecine quarrels.

Nash’s passionate voice continues to be heard in support of peace, and social and environmental justice. The No Nukes/Musicians United for Safe Energy (MUSE) concerts he organized with Jackson Browne and Bonnie Raitt in 1979 remain seminal benefit events. In 2011, Nash was instrumental in bringing MUSE back to the forefront with a concert to benefit Japan disaster relief and groups promoting non-nuclear energy worldwide. That same year, he and Crosby were among the many musicians who made their way to the Occupy Wall Street actions in lower Manhattan.

In September 2013, Nash released his long-awaited autobiography Wild Tales, which delivers an engrossing, no-holds-barred look back at his remarkable career and the music that defined a generation. The book landed him on the New York Times Best Sellers list, and was released in paperback in late 2014.

In recognition for his contributions as a musician and philanthropist, Nash was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) by Queen Elizabeth. While continually building his musical legacy, Nash is also an internationally renowned photographer and visual artist. With his photography, Nash has drawn honors including the New York Institute of Technology’s Arts & Technology Medal and Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters and the Hollywood Film Festival’s inaugural Hollywood Visionary Cyber Award. His work is collected in the book Eye to Eye: Photographs by Graham Nash; he curated others’ work in the volume Taking Aim: Unforgettable Rock ‘n’ Roll Photographs Selected by Graham Nash (2009).

Nash’s work has been shown in galleries and museums worldwide. His company Nash Editions’ original IRIS 3047 digital printer and one of its first published works—Nash’s 1969 portrait of David Crosby— is now housed in the National Museum of American History at the Smithsonian Institution in recognition of his revolutionary accomplishments in the fine arts and digital printing world.

Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

This concert includes the interdisciplinary thesis performance projects of Master of Fine Arts in Dance candidates Duoduo Wang and J'Sun Howard.

Duoduo Wang’s work, entitled "A thread in blood", investigates different orientation strategies of the Chinese diasporic identity and culture in the United States. The work carries lifelong memories and experiences of an old lady who immigrated 40 years ago to Manhattan's Chinatown. The cast of Asian American dancers contribute memories of their own cultural-identical strategies in different chapters of life (Birth, Family, Love, Living, and Death) and also explore the unique boundaries between performance and public spaces. Within a public performance, Wang aims to create an open, protected space in which everyone can express their identity, ethnicity, acculturation strategies, and body statements through physical expression.

​​J’Sun Howard’s "A Particular Embraced Affinity of Veering" is an exploration in understanding how to embody Black Fugitivity, which is radical ways in which Black people subvert time, race, gender, and family history to refuse and flee what society puts on us to navigate systematic racism and injustice. By using movement strategies such as the hold/embrace, circularity, and the fragment, "A Particular Embraced Affinity of Veering" captures the quiet urgency and complexity of deciding to refuse and flee.

This thesis concert is being held in partial fulfillment of the Department of Dance Master of Fine Arts degree requirements. The research for this event is funded in part by the University of Michigan Department of Dance, and the Center for World Performance Studies.

Location: East Quadrangle
Organized By: Center for World Performance Studies

Friday, April 1 | 8:00 PM
The Keene Theater, East Quad
701 E. University Ave.
Free and open to the public

Center for World Performance Studies will host Jonathan Scales, one of the most innovative steel pannists on the planet, redefining and challenging traditional expectations of his signature instrument. In his hands, the sonic palette of an instrument often associated with cruise ships and tropical resorts is radically expanded to mimic the role of horns, piano, vibraphone or marimba due to his stunning, virtuosic technique.

Although Scales’ writing produces songs that are ultimately accessible and danceable, the compositions can be remarkably complex and difficult to perform. As a result, the power trio whimsically named Jonathan Scales Fourchestra has always had a fluid lineup of top-notch musicians.

Guests entering the Keene Theater must wear a face covering.

By the time 2019 came to its fitful end, Andrew Marlin knew he was tired of touring. He was grateful, of course, for the ascendancy of Mandolin Orange, the duo he’d cofounded in North Carolina with fiddler Emily Frantz exactly a decade earlier. With time, they had become new flagbearers of the contemporary folk world, sweetly singing soft songs about the hardest parts of our lives, both as people and as a people. Their rise—particularly crowds that grew first to fill small dives, then the Ryman, then amphitheaters the size of Red Rocks—humbled Emily and Andrew, who became parents to Ruby late in 2018. They’d made a life of this.

Still, every night, Andrew especially was paid to relive a lifetime of grievances and griefs onstage. After 2019’s Tides of a Teardrop, a tender accounting of his mother’s early death, the process became evermore arduous, even exhausting. What’s more, those tunes—and the band’s entire catalogue, really—conflicted with the name Mandolin Orange, an early-20s holdover that never quite comported with the music they made. Nightly soundchecks, at least, provided temporary relief, as the band worked through a batch of guarded but hopeful songs written just after Ruby’s birth. They offered a new way to think about an established act.

Those tunes are now Watchhouse, which would have been Mandolin Orange’s sixth album but is instead their first also under the name Watchhouse, a moniker inspired by Marlin’s place of childhood solace. The name, like the new record itself, represents their reinvention as a band at the regenerative edges of subtly experimental folk-rock. Challenging as they are charming, and an inspired search for personal and political goodness, these nine songs offer welcome lessons about what any of us might become when the night begins to break.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.

Written and recorded over the past year, Penny and Sparrow’s remarkable new album, Olly Olly, is a work of liberation and revelation, a full-throated embrace of the self from a band that’s committed to leaving no stone unturned in their tireless quest for actualization. The songs here are fearless and introspective, embracing growth and change as they reckon with desire, intimacy, doubt, and regret, and the arrangements are similarly bold and thoughtful, augmenting the duo’s rich, hypnotic brand of chamber folk with electronic flourishes and R&B grooves. The duo—Andy Baxter and Kyle Jahnke—produced Olly Olly themselves, working without an outside collaborator for the first time, and the result is the purest, most authentic act of artistic selfexpression the pair have ever achieved.



Texas natives Baxter and Jahnke first crossed paths at UT Austin, where they developed a fast friendship and deeply symbiotic musical connection. Beginning with 2013’s ‘Tenboom,’ the staunchly DIY pair released a series of critically lauded records that prompted NPR to praise their songwriting as a “delicate dance between heartache and resolve” and Rolling Stone to hail their catalog as “folk music for Sunday mornings, quiet evenings, and all the fragile moments in between.” The duo’s most recent album, 2019’s Finch, debuted at #2 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart, racked up more than 40 million streams on Spotify, and earned the band their biggest headline shows to date.

Play by Friedrich Wolf
Germany, 1929

A Staged Reading directed by Malcolm Tulip
Translation by Silke Weineck

The drama presents the cruel consequences of criminalizing abortion in the Weimar Republic, exemplified by the story of a pregnant young woman.

Written by German playwright and physician Friedrich Wolf, the play had an immediate impact on its audience, who would soon experience the global repercussions of the 1929 Stock Market Crash. Staged at a moment of acute social, economic, and political crisis, Wolf’s Cyanide is as much a depiction of the sexual, reproductive, and class politics of Weimar as it is a call for action.

Brought to you by the German Department in collaboration with the School of Music, Theatre and Dance as the US Supreme Court appears poised to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Kenneth Kiesler and Eugene Rogers, conductors

Acclaimed composer and U-M alumnus James Lee III was offered the inaugural commission of a ten-year commissioning project launched in 2020 by USO music director Kenneth Kiesler and SMTD aimed at diversifying the orchestral repertoire. Tethered Voices, a powerful and impactful piece for narrator and orchestra, is a setting of a striking poem by conductor and poet Kalena Bovell. While the USO recorded Tethered Voices during separate recording sessions with each orchestra section in September of 2020, this will be its first live-concert performance. Director of University Choirs Eugene Rogers leads the premiere of Damien Geter’s Justice Symphony for choir and orchestra, a work that centers on anthems of the civil rights era. It was commissioned by the University of Michigan and the Washington Chorus. The USO, joined by University Chamber Choir, University Choir, Orpheus Singers and vocal soloists, brings the 2021-2022 season to an exhilarating and affirmative conclusion with Mahler’s magnificent and inspiring Resurrection Symphony.

Directed by: Tzveta Kassabova with the cast

“And then I realized that the deep darkness inside me had vanished. Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

Content Advisory: Parts of this show are created for adults only. Viewer discretion is advised due to themes, audio, and images of natural disaster impacts, explicit violence, death, suicide, racism, sexism, sex, prostitution, and drugs.

This performance features the choreography and performance work of Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance seniors as they near completion of their degree. Lydia Dunn, Stephanie Gennusa, Rowan Janusiak, Mariah Stevens, Kevin Wang, and Sasha Yakovenko will each present a solo and a group dance, featuring additional dance majors.

Stephanie Gennusa examines and challenges the capitalistic urge to attach self-value to one’s labor and productivity in their group work, we all fake it till we die. Gennusa’s solo, Have We Met Before?, utilizes multimedia techniques to explore the multitude of different ways to view one body in time and space.

Rowan Janusiak shares their journey of body reclamation and dissonance in their solo, frangible virility. They investigate what it means to be perceived by the world when you don't want to be perceived at all. Janusiak’s group, the motive behind the game is self-protection, grapples with the phenomenon of how closely pleasure and violence exist in our bodies: questioning ideologies society has created around pleasure, specifically the stigmitization of sex and how pleasure can be reclaimed as a force for transformative activism.

Tal Ayala Kamin explores the intersection of tradition, community, and individuality in Echad Mi Yodea, a group work defining the importance of knowing where you come from in order to know where you are going. Her solo, Yes, focuses on the evolution of self, through the use of spoken word and media projection.

Mariah Stevens’ work, Unity within Diversity, is an afrobeat hip hop fusion dance celebration, woven with hints of contemporary, vogue, and street dance. It emphasizes the power of togetherness, as individual differences join forces to create something amazing. Her solo investigates themes of healing, restoration, and contentment.

Kevin Wang’s solo, a space to call my own, explores the purpose of personal space and examines how much space we have. Wang’s group, I am us, investigates the relationship between a person and their respective communities in order to answer the question: Who do we represent?

Sasha Yakovenko’s two dances can be conceptualized as an analysis of his own mind and experiences. His solo, The Fool on the Hill Stares to Kilimanjaro, is centered around ideas of loss and failure due to one’s own folly and imperfections. Yakovenko’s group, Burning Down the House, presents a dark, satirical perspective on American culture; where sexuality and white-goodness are presented in various forms of media to distract from the darkness that forms the foundation of societal stability and rots away at the core of the world.

Organized By: Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)

台品公司董事⻓简如镜为挽救家族企业,在香港与大陆神州集团总裁沈墨进行谈判。 二人赴香港的路上各自遇到了自己,十年前消失的自己,像影子般一直跟着沈简二人。谈判桌上的沈墨和简如镜相⻅不相识,相恋不相知,还得依靠另一个自己,一层层地扒出记忆深处无法触碰的爱情。

In order to save the family business, Jane Rukeng, the director of Taipin, negotiates with Shen Mo, the president of Shenzhou Group in Hong Kong. On their way to Hong Kong, each of them meets their own self, who disappeared ten years ago and has been following Shen and Jane like a shadow. At the negotiation table, Shen Mo and Jane Rujin do not know each other, forget about their past love story, and have to rely on their other self to pick up the depths of memory of untouchable love gradually.

当绝对的理想主义者的热情退却,变成了彻头彻尾的虚无主义者,被时间改变了的无奈... 如果遇到十年前的自己,该如何面对? 他们,我们。答案是?

When the absolute idealist's enthusiasm recedes and turns into a complete nihilist, the helplessness that has been changed by time... How should we face if we meet our own selves ten years ago? Them, us. What is the answer?

Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

Content Advisory: Parts of this show are created for adults only. Viewer discretion is advised due to themes, audio, and images of natural disaster impacts, explicit violence, death, suicide, racism, sexism, sex, prostitution, and drugs.

This performance features the choreography and performance work of Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance seniors as they near completion of their degree. Lydia Dunn, Stephanie Gennusa, Rowan Janusiak, Mariah Stevens, Kevin Wang, and Sasha Yakovenko will each present a solo and a group dance, featuring additional dance majors.

Stephanie Gennusa examines and challenges the capitalistic urge to attach self-value to one’s labor and productivity in their group work, we all fake it till we die. Gennusa’s solo, Have We Met Before?, utilizes multimedia techniques to explore the multitude of different ways to view one body in time and space.

Rowan Janusiak shares their journey of body reclamation and dissonance in their solo, frangible virility. They investigate what it means to be perceived by the world when you don't want to be perceived at all. Janusiak’s group, the motive behind the game is self-protection, grapples with the phenomenon of how closely pleasure and violence exist in our bodies: questioning ideologies society has created around pleasure, specifically the stigmitization of sex and how pleasure can be reclaimed as a force for transformative activism.

Tal Ayala Kamin explores the intersection of tradition, community, and individuality in Echad Mi Yodea, a group work defining the importance of knowing where you come from in order to know where you are going. Her solo, Yes, focuses on the evolution of self, through the use of spoken word and media projection.

Mariah Stevens’ work, Unity within Diversity, is an afrobeat hip hop fusion dance celebration, woven with hints of contemporary, vogue, and street dance. It emphasizes the power of togetherness, as individual differences join forces to create something amazing. Her solo investigates themes of healing, restoration, and contentment.

Kevin Wang’s solo, a space to call my own, explores the purpose of personal space and examines how much space we have. Wang’s group, I am us, investigates the relationship between a person and their respective communities in order to answer the question: Who do we represent?

Sasha Yakovenko’s two dances can be conceptualized as an analysis of his own mind and experiences. His solo, The Fool on the Hill Stares to Kilimanjaro, is centered around ideas of loss and failure due to one’s own folly and imperfections. Yakovenko’s group, Burning Down the House, presents a dark, satirical perspective on American culture; where sexuality and white-goodness are presented in various forms of media to distract from the darkness that forms the foundation of societal stability and rots away at the core of the world.

The Friday night concert will be available for livestreamed at https://myumi.ch/DanceWatch

Kyshona has always lent her voice and music to those that feel they have been silenced or forgotten. She began her career as a music therapist, writing her first songs with her patients--the students and inmates under her care. She soon found the need to write independently and find her own voice, and endeavor which led her to the fertile ground of the Nashville creative community and songwriting culture. Since then, she has learned how to balance her music career with her passion to heal the hurting. Audiences will find a common thread of empowerment, overcoming adversity, and finding hope in her work.

The Friday night concert will be available for livestreamed at https://myumi.ch/DanceWatch

Devised Dance/Theatre piece inspired by short stories by Haruki Murakami and many more
 
Directed by: Tzveta Kassabova with the cast

“And then I realized that the deep darkness inside me had vanished. Suddenly. As suddenly as it has come. I raised myself from the sand and, without bothering either to take off my shoes or roll up my cuffs, walked into the surf to let the waves lap at my ankles.” What does it mean to tell a story? Who is the storyteller, who is listening? What real geography is surrounding us and what landscape do we imagine in our stories?

For the past 40 years, BeauSoleil avec Michael Doucet has been making some of the most potent and popular Cajun music on the planet. Born out of the rich Acadian ancestry of its members, and created and driven by bandleader Michael Doucet, BeauSoleil is notorious for bringing even the most staid audience to its feet. Their distinctive sound derives from the distilled spirits of New Orleans jazz, blues rock, folk, swamp pop, Zydeco, country and bluegrass, captivating listeners from the Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans to Carnegie Hall. Since becoming the first Cajun band to win a GRAMMY with “L’amour Ou La Folie” and then a second GRAMMY in 2010, “Live at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival”, BeauSoleil has garnered many accolades, including twelve GRAMMY nominations. They are regular guests on Garrison Keillor’s NPR show “A Prairie Home Companion,” where Keillor has dubbed them as “the best Cajun band in the world,” and their music is so integral to the Cajun culture that they have been featured on the New Orleans–based hit HBO program Treme.

How Do We Begin: A Historical Reckoning with Anti-Black Racism at U-M (April 13, 2022 3:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/92419 92419-21691274@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, April 13, 2022 3:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Rackham Graduate School

Written by guest playwright and U-M alumn Jordan Harris, this short series of plays illuminates U-M’s complicated relationship with elitism and racial inequity. Using Matthew Johnson’s book Undermining Racial Justice (a historical analysis of the admissions processes at U-M) as an entry point, the play examines how American colleges and universities—and U-M specifically—have perpetuated anti-Blackness while simultaneously benefiting from their association with inclusive values. Through a series of facilitated discussion and activities, participants will wrestle with a central question: with an understanding of our inequitable past and present, how will we imagine and pursue a racially just future?
This workshop is designed for University of Michigan master’s students, doctoral students, and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff, please contact Rack-prof-dev@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.
Registration is required at https://myumi.ch/Z669p.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.

Adia Victoria is a daughter of the South, a born and bred South Carolinian who now makes her home in Nashville, Tennessee. It is no surprise, then, that stories of the South find their way into her music, into the lyrics she pens and the chords she plays. It has been the case through her first two albums—2016’s Beyond the Bloodhounds and 2019’s Silences—and it remains so for third full-length effort, A Southern Gothic. This time, though, the stories don’t just belong to Victoria.

“I feel like it is the first record where I was able to get enough distance from what I thought was myself in order to look out and tell stories that were not necessarily my own,” she explains. “Because my immediate conditions were so limited it opened my imagination to think of other people, other characters, other perceptions and experiences that are all rooted in the south, to this land that informs us, that we grow on and grow in.”

PlayFest is a festival of new works of students who were selected from a number of applicant submissions. Those selected developed their work with the assistance of their directors and dramaturg. The festival is a way for playwrights to assess their work and where they stand, in terms of the progress of the play, and doing so in front of a live audience. The hope is that this festival helps them get closer to their goal of completing a final draft.

More than 50 years after it originally shook up Broadway, the original “American tribal love rock musical” remains as relevant as ever. Exploring ideas of identity, community, global responsibility, and peace, set to an infectiously energetic rock beat, Hair challenges audiences even as it wows them with songs like "Aquarius," "Good Morning, Starshine," "Easy to be Hard," "I Got Life," and "Let The Sun Shine In." More than 50 years after it originally shook up Broadway, the original “American tribal love rock musical” remains as relevant as ever.

**Recommended for ages 17+. Contains adult situations, including frank references to sexuality, war, racism, and drug use. May contain nudity.**

Due to the curricular nature of our performances, SMTD has chosen to maintain our mask requirements for the remainder of the semester. All audience members will be required to wear masks throughout all performances.

Joe Pug has collected plenty of the requisite Dylan comparisons over his career, but in his new music it's easier to hear the sway of contemporary influences from the likes of The Milk Carton Kids' Kenneth Pattengale, who produced Joe's recent album "The Flood In Color." Recently relocating back to his childhood home in Prince George's County, Maryland, after many years spent in Chicago and Austin, Joe wanted take a new approach. Joe has been posting weekly Sunday Songs livestreams during the pandemic, so he has lots of new material, and he has brought some gems together on his new album, "The Diving Sun," with tracks produced by Pattengale and Duane Lundy (Jim James, Ben Sollee) and Kenneth Pattengale along with new songs recorded in quarantine. If you haven't heard Joe Pug for a while, it's time to take another listen! Dead Horses, the Wisconsin duo of Sarah Vos and Daniel Wolff, are tonight's special guests.

Honing a synthesis of folk and blues for 50 years, Chris Smither is truly an American original. After a series of timeless records dating back to the early 1970s, Chris has become a folk classic—and one of the bst storytellers around. Reviewers and fans from around the world agree that Chris is a profound songwriter, a blistering guitarist and, as he puts it, a "one-man band to the bone." Chris melds the styles of his two major influences, Lightnin' Hopkins and Mississippi John Hurt, into his own signature guitar sound. His music continues to draw deeply from the blues, American folk music, modern poets, and humanist philosophers. Chris may be best known for writing "Love You Like A Man," which Bonnie Raitt and more recently Kelly Clarkson have covered. His music has been covered by numerous artists and featured in soundtrack albums, independent film, television and commercials, and at The Ark he has a meeting of the minds with audiences that occurs in very few other places.

Organized By: School of Music, Theatre & Dance

This performance features the choreography and performance work of Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance seniors as they near completion of their degree. ElleAnna Casterline, Olivia Johnson, Tal Kamin, Sarah Madnick, Abby Niemi and Arianna Stadler will each present a solo and a group dance, featuring additional dance majors.

ElleAnna Casterline’s group and solo dances portray the dichotomy between vulnerability and isolation through the empowerment of the internal self and the deception of the external. This work curates collaborations between screen dance, music production, and performance, demonstrating the multifaceted experience of mental and emotional awareness after loss.

Lydia Dunn’s group explores the state of daydreaming; elegant choreography pairs with an airy and uplifting setting that is beyond reality. Dunn’s solo, In The Cold Light of Day, feels intimately personal as a quieter, darker setting accompanies movement created out of a practice of introspection and finding new approaches.

Olivia Johnson showcases how addiction creates tension in a family and thrives through fakery in A Scoop of Neapolitan. Her interactive and interdisciplinary solo, Inevitable but Voluntary, dives into the belief that in a broad sense of life, fate and free will work together to create reality.

Sarah Madnick’s solo evokes the empty stress of her quaint hometown as a place to find quiet space to unpack the unavoidable and overwhelming emotional pile-up of everyday life. Madnick's group explores the rollercoaster of feeling misplaced and the complicated dynamics of returning to your childhood home after you no longer live there.

While experimenting with jazz-funk and sensual choreography, Abby Niemi and her dancers spread messages of self-worth, positivity, and affirmations through songs by Anderson .Paak and Rihanna.

In her group work, Arianna Stadler explores the naivety of young love and the excitement of possibility while juxtaposing this with a mature disillusioned relationship. Stadler investigates the lengths to which grief and extreme misery can be expressed through satire in her solo.

More than 50 years after it originally shook up Broadway, the original “American tribal love rock musical” remains as relevant as ever. Exploring ideas of identity, community, global responsibility, and peace, set to an infectiously energetic rock beat, Hair challenges audiences even as it wows them with songs like "Aquarius," "Good Morning, Starshine," "Easy to be Hard," "I Got Life," and "Let The Sun Shine In." More than 50 years after it originally shook up Broadway, the original “American tribal love rock musical” remains as relevant as ever.

The physical gestures that chamber ensembles and other musicians enact in order to seamlessly perform ‘as one’ include cues such as a fleeting glance, a subtle nod of the head, or the rise of the torso. These physical gestures are the root of how musicians share vital information to one another – empowering them to share ideas and stay open to improvisational interpretations. With the pandemic now requiring musicians to perform remotely, the limitations of video – which is currently the main aspect of telematic performance – to communicate these subtle physical gestures has become clear. Researchers for “Visualizing Telematic Performance” have spent the past year and a half conducting a series of experiments to explore other ways that these visual cues can be shared and a recent demonstration of their research thus far was recorded to show the experimental ideas that they hope will shift the scope of what telematic performance can encompass.

PlayFest is a festival of new works of students who were selected from a number of applicant submissions. Those selected developed their work with the assistance of their directors and dramaturg. The festival is a way for playwrights to assess their work and where they stand, in terms of the progress of the play, and doing so in front of a live audience. The hope is that this festival helps them get closer to their goal of completing a final draft.

Haley Heynderickx (April 16, 2022 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/92071 92071-21686467@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Saturday, April 16, 2022 8:00pm

It takes a mix of skill and luck to tend a garden well, but it’s impossible without a certain amount of kindness tended. While the cyclical nature of gardening seems inherent, in some ways, Heynderickx is just beginning. Her debut album, named I Need to Start a Garden out of a search for calm through these waves of uncertainty and upheaval, is out now via Mama Bird Recording Co.

For the empathetic singer/songwriter, the reasons for seeking such acceptance and understanding stem from a life of paradoxes. Heynderickx grew up in a religious household in Oregon, closely identifying with her Filipino roots, but also straddling multiple cultural identities. Now residing in Portland, her faith is not overt, but her introspection and continued struggle for self-actualization are easily accessible and relatable.

Likewise, the tracks on I Need to Start a Garden reflect these seemingly disparate elements. Through soft acoustic guitar picking and deftly accented trombone sighs, Heynderickx’s music immediately recalls folk music of the '60s and '70s mixed with a love of jazz radio. But Heynderickx’s singing—her vocals that range from tender to operatic—belie a tenacity in her soul.

It’s a balance then, between exposing and protecting herself on I Need to Start a Garden. Heynderickx vacillates between powerlessness (opener “No Face”) and empowerment (lead single "Oom Sha La La"). But her generosity of spirit remains the constant throughout the whole album.

You can hear that exceptional care in “Jo”, as she whispers, “You tended your garden like heaven and hell / and you built the birds houses to see if it helped at all.” Aware of the birds, the garden, and anyone listening acutely, Heynderickx’s music serves as an invitation for all to join her. Because the beauty of a garden is that, while it’s often started for deeply personal reasons, its bounty is best consumed and shared with others.

Gustave Rosseels Endowed Prize for String Quartet
In 1984, Department of String Professor Emeritus Gustave Rosseels and his wife, Jacqueline Rosseels, established the expendable Gustave Rosseels Scholarship Fund to provide an annual award to four student players of an outstanding string quartet at the School of Music, Theatre & Dance. In 2021, generous donors, including an SMTD alumnus who studied with Professor Rosseels, endowed the fund to support students participating in string quartets and to recognize Professor Rosseels’ contributions to the art form in perpetuity.
