Susurrus is a play without actors and without a stage. It is part radio play, part

recital, part lesson in bird dissection, and part stroll in the park. Audiences

ollow a map around Matthaei Botanical Gardens as they listen to the piece

on headphones; the dierent elements orm a “perect melding o location

and text to create a theater experience in which there are no actors and only

one member in the audience: you.” (The Guardian)

The listener hears snippets about opera, memorial benches, and botany,

which t together into a mournul and poignant story o love and loss

that is “a sensual reinterpretation o A Midsummer Night’s Dream with a

contemporary edge.” (The List )

Susurrus (pronounced sus-YOO-rus, it reers to the rustling sound o wind

in trees) is written and directed by David Leddy, a “theatrical maverick” with

a “propensity or earless experiment” (Financial Times) who is “Scotland’s

hottest, edgiest young playwright.” (The Sunday Times)

“A clever reraction o Shakespeare’s themes and a distinct drama in its own

right…There are moments when location and content come together so

powerully that your eyes moisten and your heart lurches.” (The Guardian)

Times vary, with groups o our admitted every 15 minutes. The piece

includes about a mile o walking on dened trails. Umbrellas providedin case o rain.

Recommended or ages 16+; contains adult themes.

When Rosanne Cash was 18 and on the road with her ather,the incomparable country music superstar Johnny Cash, he

became alarmed at the number o important songs that she

didn’t know. As the tour progressed, he developed a list on a

legal pad — “100 Essential Country Songs” — and gave it to her

with a thinly veiled admonishment that she needed to do her

homework. Now, more than 30 years later, Cash has selected a

dozen songs rom her ather's syllabus and has recorded her rst

album o covers, ltered through her own unique, sophisticated

perspective. “I think he was alarmed that I might miss something

essential about who he was and who I was. He had a deeply

intuitive understanding and overview o every critical juncture

in Southern music — Appalachian songs, early olk songs, Delta

blues, Southern gospel, right up to modern country music,” says

Cash. “These songs are as important as the Civil War to who we

are as Americans.” Rosanne Cash embraces her heritage with this

concert o songs that have shaped who she is as an artist.

“The term ‘early-music superstar’ is surely an oxymoron. But in the most understated

Jordi Savall has been devoted to the rediscovery and perormance o neglected musical

treasures as soloist and director o three ensembles, two o which join orces with Mexico’s

Tembembe Ensamble Continuo or this concert. For the past 15 years, Ensamble Continuo

has explored the relationship between Mexican Baroque music and traditional Latin

More than a hal-century ago, ater perorming in the companies o Merce Cunningham, Martha

Graham, and George Balanchine, Paul Taylor became the youngest member o the pantheon

that created American modern dance. Now 80, Taylor is acclaimed or the vibrancy, relevance,

and power o his dances. As prolic as ever, he continues to oer cogent observations on

lie’s complexities while tackling some o society’s thorniest issues. He may propel his dancers

through space or the sheer beauty o it, or use them to wordlessly illuminate war, spirituality,

sexuality, morality, and mortality. While his work has largely been iconoclastic, since the very

start o his career Taylor has also made some o the most purely romantic, most astonishingly

athletic, and downright unniest dances ever put on a stage. UMS, in collaboration with the U-MDepartment o Dance, shines a light on Paul Taylor, with a week o programming meant to en-

gage audiences more deeply with his mammoth body o work, and thereore, the world o dance

itsel. The week will include:

• Three distinct evening performances of repertory, plus youth and family performances, performed by his

accomplished ensemble o dancers, providing the broadest possible exposure to his work.

• Always one to look ahead to his next new creative idea, Paul Taylor has seldom looked back. But for this

Ann Arbor retrospective o his work, the Friday night program will include the world premiere reconstruc-

tion o one o his earlier dances rom the 1960s, Orbs. Many original cast members will be on hand to discuss

their role in the creation o this original work.

• Two free events planned to open up the world of Paul Taylor: a panel discussion with current

members and alumni o the Company, ollowed by a conversation with Taylor scholar and

U-M Proessor Angela Kane; and a pre-concert discussion beore Friday's perormance about

the revival o Orbs. More inormation at www.ums.org.

“[Valery] Gergiev carries a disproportionate share o the music world

One o hallmarks o the Takács Quartet's musical activity over the years hasnot only been its well-regarded and supreme musical standard but, equally, its

ongoing commitment to deep explorations o a composer's artistry and immersive

experiences or audiences. Beethoven, Bartók, Kodály, Hungarian olk music

origins…we in Ann Arbor are amiliar with this Quartet’s many gits. And now,

we turn to Franz Schubert.

Refecting on the treasure trove o composers rom Vienna, it is oten shocking

how Schubert can be sidelined among the classical heavyweights o Haydn,

Beethoven, and Mozart. Yet Schubert, and especially Mozart, share so much in

common: a city, a tradition, an unparalleled git or melody, a prolic creativity

and, tragically, a too-early demise. Both Mozart and Schubert died in their early

thirties. It is so tantalizing to imagine “what could have been” i either o these

geniuses had lived even another decade.

The Takács Quartet’s Schubert project moves well beyond a mere quartet concert

cycle. It is an exploration o the extreme creativity o Schubert’s mature musical

voice, heard most acutely in his prooundly personal and intimate small scale

scores — string quartets and quintets and solo piano music. With the exception

o one early string quartet, all three concerts span the nine years o his

adulthood and showcase his outrageous gits.

Ushio Amagatsu, the ounder and artistic director o

Sankai Juku, trained in classical as well as modern dance

beore he devoted his lie to butoh. Butoh rst appeared

in Japan ater World War II and is oten dened by its

playul and grotesque imagery, taboo topics, and absurd

environments. Traditionally perormed in white body

makeup with slow, hyper-controlled, mesmerizing

motion, butoh represents to Amagatsu a “dialogue with

gravity,” whereas most dance orms revel in the escape

rom gravity. It plays with the perception o time andspace through slowing down the experience — the

dance equivalent o haiku, only longer. The company,

whose name translates to “studio by the mountain

and the sea” and implies the characteristic serenity

o the work, last appeared in Ann Arbor in 1999. In

2002, Hibiki: Resonance From Far Away received an

Olivier Award or “Best New Dance Production.” “[Ushio

Founded in 1997 by harpsichordist Andrea Marcon, the Venice Baroque

Orchestra is recognized as one of Europe’s premier ensembles devoted to

period instrument performance. For this UMS debut, they perform music of

their home city — Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons — paired with an “American Four Seasons” by Philip Glass featuring violinist

Robert McDu e, who has worked closely with Glass over the years and

who last appeared in Ann Arbor with the Jerusalem Symphony in 2008.

The VBO will perform the Vivaldi on period instruments, then switch to

modern-day instruments for the Glass composition. “The first performance

of [Philip Glass’s Violin Concerto No. 2, ‘The American Four Seasons,’] was

so spectacularly played by the new piece’s muse, American violinist Robert

McDu e…that the event turned into one of the most exciting musical

evenings of the year.” (The Toronto Star )

The Hot Club o San Francisco and The Hot Club o Detroit are

ensembles o accomplished and versatile musicians celebrating

the music o Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli’s

pioneering Quintette du Hot Club de France. This seminal French

jazz tradition continues to play out with this evening o live

Gypsy jazz perormed alongside selected short silent lms romthe 1930s by Charlie Bowers, James Sibley Watson, and Harold

Shaw, courtesy o the San Francisco Silent Film Festival. Django

Reinhardt is rightly hailed as one o the greatest guitarists who

ever lived, but many people praising his accomplishments as

a guitarist tend to overlook his roots in Gypsy culture and the

ertile, polyglot Paris o the 1920s. Reinhardt and his companions

used all o these elements, along with American jazz, to create

this new music, but the Gypsy heritage seems to be the most

important ingredient. Hearing the Hot Club o San Francisco and

the Hot Club o Detroit live carries the listener back to the 1930s

and the small, smoky jazz clubs o Paris or the rened lounges o

the amous Hotel Ritz.

ONCE. MORE.In 1960 a group o avant-garde composers came together in Ann

Arbor, Michigan, to present the ONCE Festival, a modestly-scaled,

artist-run event that would occur annually or several years and came

to have an enormous impact on the American contemporary musicscene. The estival’s ounders were the superbly gited composers

Robert Ashley, Gordon Mumma, Roger Reynolds, Donald Scavarda,

and the late George Cacioppo, all o whom interacted with Ross Lee

Finney, the U-M School o Music’s then composer-in-residence, as well

as visiting composer Roberto Gerhard. The ONCE Festival was hugely

successul, as composers and perormers embraced the opportunity to

have their work heard by their peers as well as the general public. The

Festival, which was hosted six times beginning in the early 1960s, had

a signifcant impact on the American arts and contemporary music

scene; one o the enduring outcomes was the Ann Arbor Film Festival.

On this 50th anniversary o the ONCE Festival, composers Ashley,

Mumma, Reynolds, and Scavarda will reunite in Ann Arbor or the frst

time. This celebration o the ONCE Festival’s pioneering contributions

will include a concert o historic works selected by the composers

themselves, and a second concert eaturing their more recent

creations. In addition to the concerts, the Institute or the Humanities

will host an exhibition o historical artiacts rom the ONCE Festival

and a day-long symposium, providing a unique opportunity to explore

Ann Arbor’s progressive role in the development o the American

avant-garde. In a nod to the past, both concerts will eature 1961ticket prices.

modern mariachi and are still playing ve generations later.

The group spent its ormative years dening its sound andexperimenting with dierent instrumental lineups. Today

the group comprises two harps, one vihuela, one guitar,

one guitarron, two trumpets, and six violins. The songs

they sing cross over rom one generation to the next,

making their perormances appealing to both young and

mature audiences. In 1987, the group was eatured on Linda

Ronstadt’s double-platinum Grammy Award-winning album

Canciones de mi Padre (Songs o My Father), her rst Spanish

release. Recognized as “el major mariachi del mundo,"

Anyone who has heard one o Murray’s Perahia’s

previous 11 UMS appearances would have to agree with

the assessment o The Los Angeles Times: “Perahia

is a marvel.” In the more than 35 years he has been

perorming on the concert stage, he has become one

o the most cherished pianists o our time. “Perahia may

be the closest thing to a pure conduit o music — one inwhich the imagination and skill o the player are entirely

at the service o the composer, not the player’s ego…

The soul o a poet, the mind o a thinker, the hands o

a virtuoso: No wonder audiences love this guy.” (The

“Stew’s endlessly inventive music draws on rock, gospel, soul, and blues…

A winning tribute to the diversity o the black musical experience.” (The

Hollywood Reporter ) Songwriter Stew’s career took an unexpected turn in

2006. Ater a successul career ronting his critically acclaimed band, The

Negro Problem, Stew transormed his lie story into the rock musical Passing

Strange. The show, co-composed with Heidi Rodewald, earned him the

2008 Tony Award or “Best Book o a Musical” and attracted the attention o

Spike Lee. Lee produced a lm version o Passing Strange, which premiered

at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and aired on PBS’s “Great Perormances.”Compared in the same breath with Kurt Weill, Burt Bacharach, and Jackie

Gleason, Stew’s concerts are coveted or their literate precision, sly humor,

and deep emotional resonance, hovering between the divergent worlds o

rock and theater. “Something hipper or the hipper…Stew is a very genial and

lovable guide through the common travails o lie. Like a lot o ne writers and

musicians, he has the ability to layer refexive sel-doubt into his music and

lyrics…very witty, very smart.” (The Chicago Tribune)

“Tradition is a guide, not a jailer. We play in an older tradition but we are

modern musicians,” says Justin Robinson, a member o the Carolina Choco-

late Drops. The popular olk band's name is a tip o the hat to the Tennessee

Chocolate Drops, who lit up the music scene in the 1930s. Inspired by old-

time ddler Joe Thompson, at whose home they jammed every Thursday

night during the summer and all o 2005, the CCD started playing anywhere

people would listen — town squares, armers’ markets, and ultimately estivalsand concert halls, where their oot-tapping music linked the deep tradition o

the past with “dirt-foor-dance electricity.” (Rolling Stone) Their sellout shows

at The Ark and appearances at major venues and estivals across the U.S. in

the past year reinorce how ar they’ve come in a very short time. “This strik-

ing North Carolina trio brings a modern sizzle to the legacy o classic Arican

American stringbands…sparking an electriying ruckus.” (Spin)

A pioneering storyteller whose ever-intriguing convergence o

technology, violin, visuals, and voice creates spellbinding tales, Laurie

Anderson is “a singer-songwriter o crushing poignance — a minimalist

painter o melancholy moods who addresses universal themes in the

vernacular o the commonplace.” (Rolling Stone) At the heart o this new

multimedia work, which was presented or the rst time at the Vancouver2010 Olympic Games, is the pleasure o language and a ear that the

world is made entirely o words. Conceived as a series o short mystery

plays, Delusion jump-cuts between the everyday and the mythic, evoking

a world lled with nuns, elves, rotting orests, ghost ships, archaeologists,

dead relatives, and unmanned tankers. Employing a series o altered

voices and imaginary guests, Anderson combines her signature violin

pieces, electronic puppetry, music, and visuals, with the poetic language

that has become her trademark to tell a complex story about longing,

memory, and identity.

been thrilled by the imposing Cathedral o Notre Dame, whose

massive towers and elegant fying buttresses dominate the Île de

o the trappings o a popular tourist site, in the 12th century, theCathedral o Notre Dame was situated within its own “campus” that

enclosed nearly one-third o the island and housed an autonomous

mini-state with its own laws and enorcement, ree rom the secular

power wielded by the French king. Within this “city within a city”

was the high altar, where the most innovative musical minds gave

dynamic new architecture taking shape around them. This program

Straight rom the heart o the back country, Blues at the Crossroads has a direct

connection linking back to Robert Johnson (1911-1938), widely considered the

the 1930s displayed a remarkable combination o singing, miraculous guitar

skills, and songwriting talent that have infuenced generations o musicians,

including Eric Clapton, who calls him “the most important blues singer that everlived.” This concert picks up the thread o Johnson’s legacy in Mississippi at the

very crossroads where, as legend has it, Robert Johnson made a deal with the

devil, giving up his soul to write the most incredible blues the world had ever

heard. The concert eatures Big Head Todd & The Monsters, as well as David

one o the greatest American dancers, perorming with the MarthaGraham Dance Company or six years. With an artistic career

distinguished by constant innovation, Cunningham expanded not

only the rontiers o dance, but also o contemporary visual and

perorming arts. His collaborations with artistic innovators rom

every creative discipline have yielded an unparalleled body o

American dance, music, and visual art. The program is drawn rom

the more than 150 dances that Cunningham created over more

than six decades o choreographic innovation. In Merce’s own

words: “You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing

back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls

and maybe hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold,

nothing but that single feeting moment when you eel alive.”

Fleeting or the dancer, perhaps, but creating lasting impressions

or the audiences that experience it.

“Superlatives don’t really exist to convey the primal

the combination o the discipline o a surgeon’s scalpelwith the primitive, muscular endurance o a cavalry

charge. The speed and dexterity are as impressive as

the physical tenacity is breathtaking.” (The Chicago

o the rural community, and it is said that the limits o

the village were dened not by geography, but by the

urthest distance rom which the taiko could be heard.

With its “One Earth” tour, Kodo brings the sound o the

taiko to people around the globe, transcending barriers

o language and custom and reminding us all o ourmembership in that much larger community, the world.

“In this age o exploding populations and lightning-ast

communication, it is more important than ever that these

diverse cultures learn to recognize and accept each other

so that all may share our increasingly shrinking planet in

harmony,” says Kodo’s primary philosophy. The Japanese

characters o the company’s name convey two meanings:

“heartbeat,” the primal source o all rhythm, and “children

o the drum,” a refection o Kodo’s desire to play their

drums simply, with the heart o a child.

monumental Symphony No. 8. The rst perormance o this “choral symphony”

dub the work “Symphony o a Thousand.” While Mahler himsel did not approve

o the title, it nevertheless remains associated with this work, which is rarely

Founded in 1990 by Masaaki Suzuki with the aim o introducing

Japanese audiences to period instrument perormance o great

works rom the Baroque period, the Bach Collegium Japan includes

both orchestra and chorus. The group has developed a ormidable

reputation through its recordings o J.S. Bach’s church cantatas, and

returns to Ann Arbor ater its 2003 St. Matthew Passion in St. Francis

o Assisi Catholic Church. Widely regarded as one o the supremeachievements in classical music, the Mass in b minor was composed

over a period o 25 years and assembled in its present orm in 1749,

the year beore Bach died. “I have never heard period instruments

played with such purity o tone, so reliably in tune. The small,

precise, dramatically alert chorus breathed re but also revealed a

heartbreaking tenderness.” (The Los Angeles Times)

The Taming of the Shrew by Philip Tull

“Edward Hall's superb all-male company Propeller proves



Edward Hall s superb, all male company Propeller proves

again the value o a true ensemble and a director who treats

Shakespeare's plays as i they'd just been written.” (The Guardian

on A Midsummer Night’s Dream, 2009)

Propeller, the internationally celebrated, innovative Shakespeare

company led by Edward Hall, presents new productions o two o

Shakespeare’s greatest contrasting masterpieces.

Renowned or combining a rigorous approach to the text with an

exciting, physical aesthetic to engage its audience’s imagination

and bring resh understanding to classic plays, Propeller is

Shakespeare rediscovered.

Richard III brings the War o the Roses cycle o history plays to a

close in bloody ashion. Arguably Shakespeare’s most villainous

King, Richard murders his way to the throne, unable to resist his

cruel wit and dark humor. This hugely entertaining and diabolical

adventure tells the story o one man’s journey to heaven, then

back to hell.

In complete contrast, The Comedy of Errors is Shakespeare’s most

arcical comedy, and also his smartest. Two sets o estranged

twins, separated at birth, nd themselves in the same city 25 years

later with hilarious consequences. A series o mistaken identities,

assumed personas, and wild mishaps bring a amily crisis into

heartwarming ocus.

The two plays will be presented in repertory with the same cast.

“Propeller’s collective ingenuity makes an evening that delights

the heart as much as it stimulates the mind.” (The Daily Telegraph)

“The daring, the dazzle, and the pure crat o this company…

absolutely exhilarating.” (The New York Times)

The Russian city o St. Petersburg boasts two world-class

each. With a history dating back more than 200 years, the St.

Petersburg Philharmonic is embedded with musical history,

having perormed the world première o Beethoven’s Missa

Solemnis in 1824, as well as Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6,

Prokoev’s Symphony No. 1, and many works by Shostakovich.

Pianist Nikolai Lugansky, who won the 1994 Tchaikovsky Piano

Competition, makes his UMS debut. A Russian newspaper said

o his perormance in the nal round o competition: “It was

like getting sunstroke, a musical shock. Nobody could imagine

that the soul o this unpretentious, modest young man, with his

ascetic, but also poetic appearance, held such a volcano inside

with inspired and resolute control.”

Septeto Nacional Ignacio Piñeiro de Cuba has been the greatest

champion o the traditional sound o the Cuban son or more than 80

years. The ensemble perorms some o the most treasured and well-

known Cuban songs in the tradition o Ignacio Piñeiro Martínez, the

legendary ounder o the Septeto’s rst incarnation in 1927 and one o

the most important composers o son music. The group’s exceptional

musicianship is rmly rooted in the musical explosion o Cuban son

that took place during the 1920s and 1930s, evoking the nostalgic

elegance o the dancing ballrooms and clubs o Havana.

It is impossible to resist the inectious rhythms o this celebrated

ensemble — they are masters o Aro-Cuban rhythm and spirit, adding

a splash o rumba to their son and delivering up-tempo un. This band

may be “ocial cultural ambassadors” o Cuba, but they know how to

throw a dance party! Septeto Nacional recently returned to perorm

in the US or the rst time since 1933.

The drummer behind the legendary Nigerian bandleader Fela Anikulapo Kuti,

Tony Allen is probably the most highly regarded Arican drum set player,

with drummers and other musicians o all backgrounds marveling at his

polyrhythmic style. Fela Kuti is widely remembered as the most infuential

Arican popular musician o the post-colonial era, and Tony Allen was his

crucial collaborator in the synthesis o jazz, unk, and highlie that resulted

in the style known as Arobeat. Born in Nigeria in 1940 o mixed Nigerian

and Ghanaian parentage, Allen is infuenced by everything rom European

ballroom dance music to big-band jazz drumming, indigenous percussion

traditions, and the tradition o modern jazz drumming typied by such

musicians as Art Blakey, Elvin Jones, and Max Roach. Ater playing or years in

the shadows o better-known musicians, Tony Allen is now starting to receive

the worldwide credit he deserves as one o the most dynamic players o the

drum set. “Without Tony Allen, there’d be no Arobeat.” (Fela Anikulapo Kuti)

Ater nearly a decade in which he composed no vocal music at all,

Schumann made a striking return to the genre with the Spanische

Liebeslieder (Love Song Waltzes) song collection, which combines songs

or solo voice with duets and quartets. A generation later, Brahms took

the same instrumentation — vocal quartet plus our-hand piano — andcomposed the Liebeslieder and Neue Liebeslieder Waltzes. These three

works serve as the centerpiece o a program that also includes Brahms’

composition or vocal quartet and piano, perormed by a brilliant quartet o

musicians, including bass-baritone Thomas Quastho, who last appeared at

Since umsLOBBY.org was launched in February 2010, audience membershave let over 400 comments (and counting!) about their UMS experiences.Visitors have engaged with other community members, UMS sta, and artists,including Béla Fleck, The Bad Plus, and Hubbard Street Dance Chicago.

The UMS Lobby will continue to grow during the 10/11 season, expanding theUMS experience by combining online and live components in everything thatUMS does [and giving you a behind-the-scenes look at UMS!]. umsLOBBY.orgis a virtual lobby, accessible year-round, oering multiple streams o activityto engage anyone interested in arts and culture, or in UMS specically. On the

site you’ll nd: A multimdi blg with background and educational inormation on

UMS perormances, guest blogs by UMS artists, ollow-up rom artists thathave been presented by UMS in the past, UMS sta “scouting reports” onpossible artists or uture seasons, other arts links, and much more.

A digitizd histricl rchiv that includes access to UMS’s extraor-dinary 131-year history, including the opportunity to submit your owncomments, memories, and observations about events that you’veattended.

Stris rm ptrs d thrs about the impact UMS has had in ourcommunity — in essence, a “living archive” that will grow with time and
