PAUL TAYLOR

Paul Taylor is the last living member of the pan-theon that created America’s indigenous art form, modern dance. At 80 – an age when most artists’ best work is behind them – Mr. Taylor continues to be acclaimed for the vibrancy, relevance and power of his current dances as well as his classics. As prolific as ever, he offers cogent observations on life’s com-plexities and society’s thorniest issues. He may propel his dancers through space for the sheer beauty of it, or use them to wordlessly illuminate war, spirituality, sexuality, morality and mortality. If, as Balanchine said, there are no mothers-in-law in ballet, there certainly are dysfunctional families, ex-lovers, fallen preachers, rapists, angels and insects in Taylor dance.

In the 1950s, when his work was so cutting-edge that it could send confused audience members flock-ing to the exits, Martha Graham dubbed Mr. Taylor the “naughty boy” of dance. In the ’60s he shocked the cognoscenti by setting his trailblazing movement to music composed 200 years earlier, and inflamed the establishment by lampooning America’s most treasured icons. In the ’70s he put incest center stage and revealed the beast lurking just below humans’ sophisticated veneer. In the ’80s he looked unflinch-ingly at marital rape and intimacy among men at war. In the ’90s he warned against religious zealotry and blind conformity to authority. In the first decade of the new millennium he has condemned Ameri-can imperialism, poked fun at feminism and looked death square in the face. And yet, while his work has largely been iconoclastic, since the very start of his career Mr. Taylor has also made some of the most purely romantic, most astonishingly athletic, and downright funniest dances ever put on stage.

People in cities and towns throughout the world have enjoyed live modern dance performances due largely to the far-reaching tours Mr. Taylor pioneered as a virtuoso dancer in the 1950s. Having made his first dance in 1954, he has amassed a growing collec-tion of 133 dances. He has set movement to music so memorably that for many people it is impossible to hear certain orchestral works and popular songs and not think of his dances. He has influenced doz-ens of men and women who have gone on to create dances or establish their own troupes. He has collabo-rated with such artists as Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Alex Katz, Tharon Musser, Thomas Skelton, Gene Moore, John Rawlings, Wil-liam Ivey Long, Jennifer Tipton and Santo Loquasto. As the subject of the documentary, Dancemaker, and author of the autobiography, Private Domain, and Why I Make Dances, he has shed light on the myster-ies of the creative process as few artists ever have.

Hailed for uncommon musicality and catholic

taste, Mr. Taylor has set dances to Ragtime, Reggae and Rock, Tango, Tin Pan Alley and Barbershop Quartets; works by baroque masters Bach, Boyce and Handel and iconoclasts Feldman, Ligeti and Varése; monotonous time announcements, plaintive loon calls and hysterical laughter. While he has covered a breathtaking range of topics, recurring themes have included the natural world and man’s place within it; love and sexuality in every gender combination; life, death and what may follow; and iconic moments in the history of the nation. His poignant looks at soldiers in battle and those they leave behind caused The New York Times to say in 2009 that he “ranks among the great war poets.”

Mr. Taylor was born in 1930 and grew up in and around Washington, DC. He was a swimmer and student of painting at Syracuse University in the late 1940s until he discovered dance, which he began studying at Juilliard. By 1954 he had assembled a small company of dancers and was making his own works. A commanding performer despite his late start, he joined the Martha Graham Dance Company in 1955 for the first of seven seasons as soloist while continuing to choreograph for his own troupe. In 1959 he danced with New York City Ballet as a guest artist. Having created the slyly funny 3 Epitaphs in 1956, he captivated dancegoers in 1962 with his vir-ile grace in the landmark Aureole, set cheekily not to contemporary music but to a baroque score, as Junction had been the year before. He struck chords again with the apocalyptic Scudorama, intended to be as dark as Aureole was sunny, and the con-troversial Big Bertha. After retiring as a performer in 1974, Mr. Taylor devoted himself fully to chore-ography and masterpieces continued to pour forth, including Esplanade, Cloven Kingdom, Dust, Airs, Mercuric Tidings, Le Sacre du Printemps (The Re-hearsal), Arden Court, Last Look, Musical Offering, Syzygy, Speaking in Tongues, Company B, Eventide, Piazzolla Caldera, Promethean Fire, Banquet of Vul-tures and Beloved Renegade. He remains among the most sought-after choreographers working today, commissioned by ballet companies and presenting organizations the world over.

From its earliest years, the Paul Taylor Dance Company brought modern dance to America’s college campuses and small towns as well as its large cultural centers, and in 1960 the Company made its first in-ternational tour. It has since performed in more than 520 cities in 62 countries. In 1966 the Paul Taylor Dance Foundation was established to help bring Mr. Taylor’s works to the largest possible audience, facili-tate the making of new dances, and preserve his rep-ertoire. Since 1968, when Aureole first entered the repertoire of the Royal Danish Ballet, his works have been licensed for performance by more than 75 com-




panies worldwide. In 1993 Mr. Taylor formed Taylor 2, which brings many of his masterworks to smaller venues around the world. Taylor 2 also teaches mod-ern technique and Taylor style in schools and work-places, at community gatherings, and during annual workshops for pre-professional dancers.

In celebration of the Paul Taylor Dance Com-pany’s 50th Anniversary in 2004-05, his works were performed in all 50 States.

Mr. Taylor has received every important honor given to artists in the United States. In 1992 he was a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors and re-ceived an Emmy Award for Speaking in Tongues, produced by WNET/New York the previous year. He was awarded the National Medal of Arts by Pres-ident Clinton in 1993. In 1995 he received the Algur H. Meadows Award for Excellence in the Arts and was named one of 50 prominent Americans hon-ored in recognition of their outstanding achievement by the Library of Congress’s Office of Scholarly Programs. He is the recipient of three Guggenheim Fellowships and honorary Doctor of Fine Arts de-grees from California Institute of the Arts, Connect-icut College, Duke University, The Juilliard School, Skidmore College, the State University of New York at Purchase, Syracuse University and Adelphi Uni-versity. Awards for lifetime achievement include a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship – often called the “genius award” – and the Samuel H. Scripps Ameri-can Dance Festival Award. Other awards include the New York State Governor’s Arts Award and the New York City Mayor’s Award of Honor for Art and Culture. In 1989 he was elected one of ten honorary American members of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters.

Having been elected to knighthood by the French government as Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 1969 and elevated to Officier in 1984 and Commandeur in 1990, Mr. Taylor was awarded France’s highest honor, the Légion d’Honneur, for ex-ceptional contributions to French culture, in 2000.

Mr. Taylor’s autobiography, originally published by Alfred A. Knopf and re-released by North Point Press and later by the University of Pittsburgh Press, was nominated by the National Book Critics Circle as the most distinguished biography of 1987. Dancemaker, Matthew Diamond’s award-winning, Oscar-nominated feature-length film about Mr. Tay-lor, was hailed by Time as “perhaps the best dance documentary ever.”

PAUL TAYLOR DANCE COMPANY

“The American spirit soars whenever Taylor’s dancers dance.” – San Francisco Chronicle

The Paul Taylor Dance Company, now in its 56th year, is one of the world’s most highly respected and sought-after ensembles.

Dance maker Paul Taylor first presented his cho-reography with five other dancers in Manhattan on May 30, 1954. That modest performance marked the beginning of a half-century of unrivaled creativity, and in the decades that followed, Mr. Taylor became a cultural icon and one of history’s most celebrated artists, hailed as part of the pantheon that created American modern dance.

The Paul Taylor Dance Company and Taylor 2, created in 1993, has traveled the globe many times over, bringing Mr. Taylor’s ever-burgeoning reper-toire to theaters and venues of every size and de-scription in cultural capitals, on college campuses and in rural communities – and often to places modern dance had never been before. The Taylor Company has performed in more than 520 cities in 62 countries, representing the United States at arts festivals in more than 40 countries and touring ex-tensively under the aegis of the U.S. Department of State. In 1997 the Company toured throughout India in celebration of that nation’s 50th Anniversary. Its 1999 engagement in Chile was named the Best Inter-national Dance Event of 1999 by the country’s Art Critics’ Circle. In the summer of 2001 the Company toured in the People’s Republic of China and per-formed in six cities, four of which had never seen American modern dance before. In the spring of 2003 the Company mounted an award-winning four-week, seven-city tour of the United Kingdom. The Company’s performances in China in November 2007 mark its fourth tour there.

While continuing to garner international acclaim, the Paul Taylor Dance Company performs more than half of each touring season in cities throughout the United States. The Company’s New York City Center season in 2005, marking its Anniversary, was attend-ed by more than 25,000 people. In celebration of the Anniversary and 50 years of creativity by one of the most extraordinary artists the world has ever known, the Taylor Foundation presented Mr. Taylor’s works in all 50 States between March 2004 and November 2005. That tour underscored the Taylor Company’s historic role as one of the early touring companies of American modern dance. The 50th Anniversary celebration also featured a quartet of new dances.

Beginning with its first television appearance for the Dance in America series in 1978, the Paul Taylor Dance Company has appeared on PBS in nine differ-ent programs, including the 1991 Emmy Award-win-




ning Speaking in Tongues. and The Wrecker’s Ball -- including Company B, Funny Papers, and A Field of Grass -- which was nominated for an Emmy Award in 1997. In 1999 the PBS American Masters series aired Dancemaker, the Academy Award nominated documentary about Mr. Taylor and his Company. In 2004, PBS aired Acts of Ardor, featuring Black Tuesday and Promethean Fire. Dancemaker is avail-able on DVD.

Mr. Taylor established Taylor 2 in 1993 to ensure that his works could be seen by audiences all over the world without regard to economic or logistical limitations. He worked with longtime colleague Linda Hodes to create a company that could accommodate performance requests, teach classes, and provide community outreach. With six dancers, Taylor 2 is the same size as Mr. Taylor’s original Company. In selecting repertoire for Taylor 2, Mr. Taylor chooses dances that reveal the broad spectrum of his work, sometimes reworking the original version to fit the smaller ensemble. Taylor 2’s engagements are flexible and are customized to meet the needs of each community. They often consist of master classes and lecture/demonstrations in addition to performances that often take place in non-traditional venues as well as in theaters. Former Taylor dancer Ruth Andrien was named Rehearsal Director of Taylor 2 in 2010.

VIENNA BOYS’ CHOIR

Boys have been singing at the court of the Holy Roman Emperor since the early 15th century. In 1498, more than half a millennium ago, Emperor Maximilian I moved his court and court musicians to Vienna. He gave instructions that there were to be six singing boys among his musicians. Historians have settled on 1498 as the foundation date of the Vienna Hofmusikkapelle and - in consequence - the Vienna Boys Choir. Until 1918, the choir sang ex-clusively for the imperial court, at mass, at private concerts and functions, and on state occasions.

Musicians like Heinrich Isaac, Paul Hofhaimer, Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber, Johann Joseph Fux, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Antonio Caldara, Anto-nio Salieri and Anton Bruckner worked with the choir. Composers Jacobus Gallus and Franz Schubert, and the conductors Hans Richter, Felix Mottl, and Clem-ens Krauss were themselves choristers. Brothers Jo-seph and Michael Haydn were members of the choir

of St. Stephen’s Cathedral, and frequently sang with the imperial boys’ choir.

In 1918, after the breakdown of the Habsburg Empire, the Austrian government took over the court opera, its orchestra and the adult singers, but not the boys’ choir. The Vienna Boys Choir owes its survival to the initiative of Josef Schnitt, who became Dean of the Imperial Chapel in 1921. Schnitt established the boys’ choir as a private institution: the former court choir boys became the Wiener Sängerknaben (Vienna Boys Choir), the imperial uniform was re-placed by the sailor suit, then the height of boys’ fashion. Funding was not enough to pay for the boys’ upkeep, and in 1926 the choir started to give concerts outside of the chapel, performing motets, secular works, and - at the boys’ request – children’s operas. The impact was amazing: Within a year, the choir performed in Berlin (where Erich Kleiber con-ducted them), Prague and Zurich. Athens and Riga (1928) followed, then Spain, France, Denmark, Nor-way and Sweden (1929), the United States (1932), Australia (1934) and South America (1936).



PROGRAM NOTES - Vienna Boys’ Choir - December 1, 2010 PROGRAM NOTES - Vienna Boys’ Choir - December 1, 2010

PRESENT:

Today there are around 100 choristers between the ages of ten and fourteen, divided into four tour-ing choirs. The four choirs give around 300 concerts and performances each year in front of almost half a million people. Each group spends nine to eleven weeks of the school year on tour. They visit virtually all European countries, and they are frequent guests in Asia, Australia, and the Americas.

Together with members of the Vienna Philhar-monic Orchestra and the Vienna State Opera Chorus, the Vienna Boys Choir maintains the tradition of the imperial musicians: as Hofmusikkapelle they provide the music for the Sunday Mass in Vienna’s Imperial Chapel, as they have done since 1498. Gerald Wirth took over as the choir’s artistic director in 2001.

REPERTOIRE:

The choir’s repertoire includes everything from medieval to contemporary and experimental music. Motets and lieder for boys’ choir form the core of the touring repertoire, as do the choir’s own arrange-ments of quintessentially Viennese music, waltzes and polkas by Strauss, Lanner, and Lehar.

Both the choir and the Hofmusikkapelle have a long tradition of commissioning new works. Austri-an composers Heinz Kratochwil, Gruber (himself a former chorister), Ernst Krenek and Balduin Sulzer have written works for the choir.

The Vienna Boys Choir performs major choral and symphonic works, sometimes as part of the Hofmusikkapelle, sometimes with other orchestras and men’s choirs. They are regularly asked to supply soloists for large choral and orchestral works, such as Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms, Mahler’s Das kla-gende Lied . In recent years, they have performed with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, the Staatskapelle Berlin, the Oslo Philharmonic and the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Recent guest conductors include Pierre Boulez, Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Mariss Jansons, Zu-bin Mehta, Riccardo Muti (honorary member of the Hofmusikkapelle), Kent Nagano, Seiji Ozawa and Simone Young. Choristers also take part in opera performances at the Vienna State Opera, the Vienna Volksoper, and the Salzburg Festival.

CHILDREN’S OPERAS:

Children’s Operas are an important part of the repertoire: The boys all love to act. The choir started performing operas in the 1920s, beginning with clas-sics such as Mozart’s Bastien und Bastienne, Weber’s Abu Hassan or Haydn’s Der Apotheker. Benjamin Britten wrote the vaudeville The Golden Vanity for the choir, and conducted its premiere at the Alde-burgh Festival in 1967 in the presence of HM The Queen Elizabeth II. In the last decade, the choir has successfully produced a number of new operas. Ger-ald Wirth’s The Journey of the Little Prince and The Tablet of Destinies, an opera based on the Babylo-nian myth of Anzu, and Raoul Gehringer’s Moby-Dick, based on the novel by Herman Melville, were all shown at Vienna’s Musikverein, another work has been commissioned for 2010.

WORLD MUSIC AND CROSS OVER PROjECTS:

Since the 1920s, the choir has collected music from around the world. One of the choir’s goals is to introduce the boys to as many different styles of music as possible. The choir has commissioned a number of world music projects. As Gerald Wirth explains, “We do not claim to play ‘authentic’ world music; we create something from the original sources that is our own. We want to be faithful to the source in the sense that we treat it with respect.” Silk Road is the choir’s third world music project. The colour-ful journey along the old trade route was staged by Rebecca Scheiner, a stage director at the Vienna State Opera, and features songs from Uzbekistan and Chi-na, a qawwali from Pakistan, a ghazal from Iran, and field hollers from Tajikistan, all sung in the original languages. Pirates tells the story of 18th-century pi-rates, using music from Yemen, Madagaskar, the Ca-ribbean, and Latin America. The choristers, who also sing popular music, have contributed to a number of soundtracks for major motion pictures in the USA, Japan, and Europe.



FILM: SILK ROAD – SONGS ALONG THE ROAD AND TIME:

The choir’s Silk Road opera inspired acclaimed di-rector Curt Faudon to make a film about the globe-trotting choristers. For over a year, Faudon followed the boys’ life in Vienna and on the road, filming the boys at work and at play, on and off stage, meeting and working with artists from Central Asia, China, and India. The resulting 90-minute film is a clever blend of fly-on-the wall documentary, road movie, costume drama, and music, with stunning foot-age from all across the world and through time; it is available on DVD and Blu-Ray disc. The unusual, off-beat soundtrack features a cross-section through the choir’s repertoire, with many first recordings. It has the boys singing in Latin, Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, French, Marathi, Maori, Savo Finnish, Tajik, Uyghur, Urdu, Uzbek, and German.

THE CHOIR SCHOOL:

The choir maintains its own school. Almost 250 children study and rehearse in the Augartenpalais, a baroque palace and former imperial hunting lodge in Vienna. Beginning with kindergarten, boys and girls are provided with a complete musical and gen-eral education through the elementary grades. At age ten, the most talented boys are selected to join the choir and enter the choir’s grammar school. All boys are assigned to one of the touring choirs. Academic lessons are taught in small groups. The school has a band, and offers extracurricular activities rang-ing from sports (baseball, basketball, fencing, judo, soccer, skating, swimming, volleyball) to attending (pop) concerts, operas, plays, musicals, and movies. The choristers are also encouraged to create their own projects; a number of them write, act and di-rect short sketches or films. All choir boys live in the choir’s own well-appointed boarding school; two to three boys share a room.

Many of the school’s alumni go on to become pro-fessional musicians, conductors, singers or instrumen-talists, in Vienna and abroad. Almost all continue to sing. There are two male voice ensembles made up en-tirely of former choristers, the Chorus Viennensis and the Imperial Chapel’s Schola Cantorum. All students retain a lifelong commitment to the Arts.

PROGRAM NOTES - Vienna Boys’ Choir - December 1, 2010

DEVELOPMENT AND FUNDING:

The Vienna Boys Choir is a private, not-for-profit organization, which finances itself largely through concerts, recordings, and royalties. A contract be-tween the Republic of Austria and the choir provides further means; and the Ministry of Education and the State’s Art Department help with certain proj-ects, such as the production of new children’s operas. Further development and special projects depend on additional funds.

The POK Pühringer Privatstiftung, based in Vienna’s Palais Coburg is the Vienna Boys Choir’s general sponsor. With their help, the choir’s trustees are currently planning to build an on-campus con-cert hall to facilitate in particular their own opera productions. The new building will incorporate a baroque gatehouse and the old park wall - a unique architectural ensemble.

2004 saw the foundation of the Freunde der Wie-ner Sängerknaben. To find out more about them, vis-it their website at www.freunde-wsk.com. To make a tax-deductable donation in the USA to the American Friends of the Wiener Sängerknaben, please contact Opus 3 Artists, New York, NY.

Gerald Wirth, the choir’s artistic director, received his first musical training as a member of the choir and at the Bruckner Konservatorium in Linz, Aus-tria, where he studied voice, oboe and piano. He has conducted choirs and orchestras in many countries, and has played and sung in a number of ensembles.

His first love is the voice; as is evident from his compositions: he has written two children’s operas, a Mass, motets, and countless arrangements for choirs. He finds much of his inspiration in myths and philo-sophical texts. Many of his works have been per-formed internationally.

In 2001, Gerald Wirth became the artistic director of the Vienna Boys Choir. While he is keenly aware of the choir’s rich tradition, Wirth also explores new ways to create and make music. He has instigated a number of projects involving world music, a cap-pella pop, and film music. Wirth firmly believes that music has a positive influence on every aspect of a personality.

E stablished in 1936 as a not-for-profi t organization, the Charleston Concert Association (CCA) is the

Lowcountry’s oldest and only year-round presenting organization. Through the support of corporate and individual sponsors, patrons and season ticket holders, the CCA produces a program schedule that presents world-class artists in the Charleston area.

The fi rst concert series in the colonies, presented in Charleston in 1762, can be considered an honorable ancestor of the CCA. As part of the Bicentennial Celebration in 1976, the CCA reproduced one of those very early concerts at the Dock Street Theater. At this event,

Charleston was fi rst introduced to the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center – and Charles Wadsworth, who founded the enormously popular Spoleto Festival Chamber Music Series.

Preceding the CCA was the Musical Arts Club, which met at 136 Meeting Street. Prior to the Musical Arts Club was the Charleston Musical Association. The Gaillard Auditorium has been the home stage for the CCA since its opening in 1968. The Charleston Concert Association has now grown into a signifi cant and highly esteemed participant in the local arts community. Having earned a reputation for excellence, the CCA now hosts the world’s foremost masters in the performing arts including the Bolshoi

CHARLESTON CONCERT ASSOCIATION

HISTORY


As we celebrate our 75th Anniversary,

the CCA would like to collect any

memorabilia that you or your family

members may have. Those items may

include concert programs, letters from

the Concert Association, or newspaper

clippings. We are also interested in any

oral or written comments that you would

like to share.

At the conclusion of our 75th year, this

memorabilia will become part of our

history and archived in a repository such

as the Gibbes Museum or the Addlestone

Library at the College of Charleston.

Ballet, Israel Philharmonic, Leontyne Price, Christopher Hogwood, Yo-Yo Ma, Luciano Pavarotti, and Sir Yehudi Menuhin, among many others.

Now in its 75th year, the CCA is always reinventing itself, expanding its scope to include contemporary music and dance – with emphasis on attracting a younger audience. What began as an intimate musical society in the home of Mrs. Martha Laurens Patterson over seventy-fi ve years ago, has now grown into one of the most popular and successful arts organizations in the community.
