SUMMARY:Vijay Iyer Trio
DESCRIPTION:Hailed as “one of the truly great jazz musicians of our time” (Stereophile) and “extravagantly gifted… brilliantly eclectic” (The New Yorker)\, pianist Vijay Iyer brings his telepathic trio to Rockport with music from his latest ECM album\, Compassion. \n“It’s as if this band wants to both seduce you and discomfit you\, stripping you of everything but the ability to think and see for yourself.”\n– New York Times \nABOUT THE ARTIST\nDescribed by The New York Times as a “social conscience\, multimedia collaborator\, system builder\, rhapsodist\, historical thinker and multicultural gateway\,” Vijay Iyer has carved out a unique path as an influential\, prolific\, shape-shifting presence in twenty-first-century music. A composer and pianist active and revered across multiple musical communities\, Iyer has created a consistently innovative\, emotionally resonant body of work over the last twenty-five years\, earning him a place as one of the leading music-makers of his generation. \nHis honors include a MacArthur Fellowship\, a Doris Duke Performing Artist Award\, a United States Artist Fellowship\, three Grammy nominations\, the Alpert Award in the Arts\, the Greenfield Prize\, a Dutch “Edison” Prize\, and two German “Echo” awards; he was also voted DownBeat Magazine’s Jazz Artist of the Year four times. He has been praised by Pitchfork as “one of the best in the world at what he does\,” by the Los Angeles Weekly as “a boundless and deeply important young star\,” and by Minnesota Public Radio as “an American treasure.” \nIyer’s musical language is indebted to the great composer-pianists from Duke Ellington and Thelonious Monk to Alice Coltrane and Geri Allen\, the rhythmic traditions of South Asia and West Africa\, and the African American creative music movement of the 60s and 70s. In February 2024 Iyer released Compassion (ECM Records)\, the second recording by his much-admired trio with drummer Tyshawn Sorey and bassist Linda May Han Oh. The New York Times observed\, “It’s as if this band wants to both seduce you and discomfit you\, stripping you of everything but the ability to think and see for yourself.” Other recent releases include Love In Exile (Verve\, 2023)\, a Grammy-nominated collaboration with vocalist Arooj Aftab and bassist Shahzad Ismaily; Uneasy (ECM Records\, 2021)\, the acclaimed first trio session with Sorey and Oh; Far From Over (ECM\, 2017) with the award-winning Vijay Iyer Sextet; and A Cosmic Rhythm with Each Stroke (ECM\, 2016) a suite of duets with visionary composer-trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith. \nIyer is an active composer for classical ensembles and soloists\, with works premiered by Brentano Quartet\, Imani Winds\, Parker Quartet\, Bang on a Can All-Stars\, The Silk Road Ensemble\, Sō Percussion\, International Contemporary Ensemble\, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra\, East Coast Chamber Orchestra\, LA Philharmonic\, London Philharmonic\, Oregon Symphony\, American Composers Orchestra\, and virtuosi Matt Haimowitz\, Mishka Rushdie Momen\, Claire Chase\, Inbal Segev\, Sarah Rothenberg\, Shai Wosner\, and Jennifer Koh. The Boston Modern Orchestra Project produced a portrait album\, Trouble (BMOP/sound 2024)\, comprising three of Iyer’s orchestral works. Iyer recently served as composer-in-residence at London’s Wigmore Hall\, music director of the Ojai Music Festival\, and artist-in-residence at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. His scores are published by Schott Music. \nA tireless collaborator\, he has written big-band music for Arturo O’Farrill and Darcy James Argue\, remixed classic recordings of Talvin Singh and Meredith Monk\, joined forces with legendary musicians Henry Threadgill\, Reggie Workman\, Zakir Hussain\, and L. Subramanian\, and developed interdisciplinary work with Teju Cole\, Carrie Mae Weems\, Mike Ladd\, Julie Mehretu\, and Prashant Bhargava. Iyer is a tenured professor at Harvard University\, with a joint appointment in the Department of Music and the Department of African and African American Studies. He lives in New York City. He is a Steinway artist. \n“Vijay is one of the most unique pianists of our time\, who is fearless in his approach to playing jazz and open to the purist form of improvisation.” – Terrance Blanchard

SUMMARY:PATRICIA AU - Art of Collaboration

SUMMARY:Arcis Saxophone Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The Arcis Saxophone Quartet’s experimental artistry captivates audiences globally with unique performances and innovative formats\, while inspiring the next generation through workshops and school visits. \nIf you’ve ever been to Munich’s Königsplatz\, you may have spotted it: Arcisstrasse\, which gave its name to the Arcis Saxophone Quartet 15 years ago. Having long outgrown the “cosmopolitan city with a heart\,” the quartet is now one of the world’s most active classical ensembles. Whether on the highest pass in Ecuador\, in the middle of the Saudi Arabian desert\, on a rock in the American Atlantic\, or in the sold-out Philharmonie in Munich and Berlin… the four saxophonists feel at home everywhere with their music. \nAnd the adventure continues. On a trailer as an improvised stage through the provinces\, playing and pedaling through the city on a conference bike\, or with theatrical make-up on their faces: they approach their musical work with experimentation\, artistry\, and curiosity\, inventing not only new concert formats but even completely new artistic genres\, as recently demonstrated with their Arcis Collectiv\, which combines chamber music and contemporary dance in a joint performative act. \nSophisticated dramaturgy\, sound and lighting design\, and captivating presentations are just as much a part of the concert experience for the four multi-talented musicians as their energetic interpretations\, finely balanced original arrangements\, and commissioned compositions from all over the world\, which have been written to suit them. To always remain authentic\, their artistic vision flows into all areas of their work: After the two debut CDs “Arcis Saxophon Quartett spielt Enjott Schneider” (2013) with Ambiente Audio and “Rasch” (2017) with Genuin\, the quartet quickly founded their own record label\, Arcis Records\, and their own production company\, Arcis Visuals\, which takes care of the visual-media content. They learned their chamber music skills from the best of the best. They studied with the Artemis Quartet at the UdK in Berlin and at the European Chamber Music Academy (under Hatto Beyerle of the Alban Berg Quartet\, Prof. Johannes Meissl\, and others)\, as well as at the HMT Munich with Prof. Koryun Asatryan and Prof. Friedemann Berger. \nThey have won first prizes at the music competition of the Kulturkreis Gasteig e.V. (Munich; also audience prize)\, the international music competition Concorso Argento (Italy)\, and the First Classical Music International Internet Festival “Chance Music” (Russia). Additionally\, they have numerous other prizes in Italy\, Berlin and Russia. \nTo inspire the younger generation\, the musicians and the audiences of tomorrow\, the quartet has made education a priority: in ensemble workshops\, master classes\, and several dozen school visits a year\, they approach children and young people directly and skillfully inspire them with music and music-making. For the Arcis Saxophone Quartet\, music is like a never-ending playing field\, and they are more diverse than any other group. Only one thing remains the same: their unmistakable sound. \nFree\, Reservations Encouraged

SUMMARY:California Guitar Trio
DESCRIPTION:The universe of guitar knows no boundaries for The California Guitar Trio. Since 1991\, the group has enthralled listeners with a singular sound that fearlessly crisscrosses genres. The trio’s questing spirit drives it to explore the intersections between rock\, jazz\, classical\, and world music. It even throws in the occasional surf or spaghetti Western tune for good measure. The trio’s output has made a major global impact\, having served as the soundtrack for Olympics coverage\, and programs on CNN\, CBS\, NBC\, and ESPN. \nCGT’s lineup is truly the sum of its distinct parts: A Utah native now residing in Los Angeles\, Paul Richards immersed himself in rock\, blues\, jazz\, and folk during his early days and while attending The University of Utah’s jazz guitar program. Bert Lams\, originally from Belgium\, graduated from the prestigious Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels\, specializing in classical guitar. Tokyo-born Hideyo Moriya began his guitar journey with surf music and British rock\, before relocating to Boston to study at Berklee. \nAll three felt the call to push themselves to the limit by enrolling in Robert Fripp’s challenging Guitar Craft courses\, where they first met in 1987. They went on to tour together as part of Fripp’s League of Crafty Guitarists\, before forming the California Guitar Trio in Los Angeles four years later. \n25 years and 1\,800+ gigs later\, the CGT remains intensely committed to explore\, evolve and communicate a wide-ranging musical worldview.

Feinstein’s dynamic interpretations will create an unforgettable night that honors the legacy of Tony Bennett in all its glory. \nMichael Feinstein’s close friendship with Tony Bennett adds a profound layer to this tribute\, as their camaraderie brings authenticity and depth to each note performed.

The music-making of Feinstein and the Carnegie Hall Ensemble continue this tradition\, as this program brings the Hall’s history to life onstage. \n“Tony Bennett is one of the most enduring icons of the 20th century. He has created a body of work surpassed by none.” – Michael Feinstein

As a teenager she hitchhiked across the country\, honing her skills as a performer and absorbing the kind of stories and landscapes that would inform her music. Her songs show a very real connection and concern with everyday folk. Drawing from a wide variety of influences to create her sound\, lyrically\, her songs are rooted in hard-wrought wisdom\, joy and sorrow\, simplicity and stories from her own experiences. They wash over the audience like a tender hug. May is a magnetic solo performer and is also often supported by her carefully chosen backing bands. \nErlewine uses her music as a platform for positive change. She considers her job a service-oriented one and carries the torch of the folk-singer activist. Her voice on stage encourages connectedness and stresses the importance of environmental advocacy\, social justice\, creative empowerment and community building as necessary work for all of us. \nErlewine’s music has touched people all over the world. Her words have held solace for weary hearts\, offered a light in the darkness\, and held space for the pain and joy of being alive in these times. She is a true artist\, an anthem\, and another example of why we need to listen to women. We need to hear these stories. When she starts to sing\, there’s no way around it: The time is now. \nPlease Note: For some non-classical concerts\, the window behind the stage may need to be covered for acoustical purposes. We do not always know which artists will need the window closed\, but at a certain level of amplification\, it is necessary.
