Dear Friends,
Welcome to the 2011-12 Season at the Ferst
Center. This marks our 20th year o presenting
outstanding perormances on campus, and in
many ways the artistic line-up refects where
weve been and looks orward to where we aregoing next.
The season eatures a blend o popular
avorites and several artists I am pleased to
share with you or the rst time. Artists we
have cherished or years include Bill Cosby,
Earl Klugh, Pilobolus, David Benoit and Peter
White. Also on the bill is the next generation
o incredible perorming artists already making
big names or themselves: Brasil Guitar
Duo, Jade Simmons, Aszure Barton, Jake
Shimabukuro and Sophie Milman.
In the early part o my career I worked or
a summer perorming arts estival and enjoyed
it so much I want to share that experience with
you. So next April we will initiate a three-year
estival project which will ocus on a dierent
style o Americana music each spring. This rs t
year we celebrate bluegrass music throughperormances, educational opportunities and a
visual art exhibition.
I encourage you to enjoy ree programs
such as Dance Dialogues and Jazz Connect,
which create opportunities or deeper audience
interaction all year. Along with our ree concerts,
these programs are our git to the community
and are open to all.
Cheers,
George Thompson
Director
