Dear Friends,Welcome to the 2007-08 Arts & Lectures Season, featuring a world-class lineup of provocative and exemplary performers and speakers. Each year, we offer the community a diverse roster of events, and this season is no exception.

In addition to my new son Alexander, I am happy to introduce more than 20 new faces and voices to Santa Barbara, including Hugh Masekela, Olympia Dukakis, Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars, Nina Ananiashvili, Salman Rushdie, George Will and Rosanne Cash. Rare artist collaborations will come to Santa Barbara such as the legendary Barbara Cook with opera diva Marilyn Horne, jazz great Chick Corea with vocal wizard Bobby McFerrin and the musical genius Stephen Sondheim with award-winning journalist Frank Rich. Four dance companies—from Vietnam, Canada, India and New York—each featuring live music on stage, make their Santa Barbara debuts. And A&L favorites such as Ira Glass, Anne Lamott, Emerson String Quartet and Pink Martini are back for your enjoyment.

Arts & Lectures also makes a deliberate effort to bring the arts to the community. For 2007-08, we will present seven events at the newly renovated Granada theater beginning in March 2008. We will also continue to present in the historic Arlington Theatre, The Marjorie Luke Theatre, Victoria Hall as well as the Eichheim House in Montecito. We hope you join us at all of these remarkable and unique spaces.

As an audience member, your enjoyment of our series is very important to us. So is your support. You may already know that your donations make our program, commissions, and collaborations possible, but you should also be aware that your contributions support our educational outreach, which includes sharing the performing arts with all communities throughout Santa Barbara.

Pearl Chase Society Music Events Pink Martini“This is rich, hugely approachable music, utterly cosmopolitan yet utterly unpretentious. And it seems to speak to just about everybody… from grade-schoolers to grandmothers to the young and hip and beautiful.” The Washington Post

Pink Martini returns to Santa Barbara after last season’s sold out show! The stylish 12-piece mini-orchestra stirs up more than just 1930s nostalgia with its elegant musicianship and fabulously retro repertoire. Over the last decade, the broad appeal of Pink Martini’s multi-lingual lyrics and swingin’ world rhythms has packed houses across the globe – engaging diverse audiences with a cool concoction of classic cabaret, jazzy instrumentals, and sultry vocals.

Private post-concert reception with Pink Martini for Producers Circle members.

Béla Fleck & the Flecktones featuring Victor Lemonte Wooten, Future Man, and Jeff Coffi n

“What Fleck doesn’t know about the banjo – acoustic or electric, vintage or newfangled – isn’t worth knowing.” The Washington Post

Ever-inventive and uncannily musical, Béla Fleck is often considered the world’s premier banjo player. Recently scoring their second Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Jazz Album for the release Hidden Land, the groundbreaking Béla Fleck & the Flecktones have collaborated with artists as diverse as Sting, Dave Matthews Band, Chick Corea and bassist Edgar Meyer. They continue to explore the myriad possibilities of jazz and bluegrass, while stirring in hints of classical, pop, R&B and soul for a mind-blowing sonic journey that celebrates the evolution of sound.

The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln CenterThursday, November 8 | 8 pm

First United Methodist ChurchDesigned in the Spanish-Renaissance style, First United Methodist was dedicated in 1927 after the 1925 earthquake severely damaged the previous church. Designed by architect Thomas P. Barber and built by contractor Charles Urton, a long-time church member, the sturdy concrete construction with its 85-foot bell tower has sur-vived subsequent earthquakes and has not required seismic retrofi tting. Its stained glass windows from Munich, Germany are priceless works of art today. The church’s excellent acoustics and warm ambiance make it an idyllic setting to enjoy the spiri-tual language of music and The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.

Arts & Lectures is pleased to travel to unique and signifi cant architectural settings to celebrate the musical experience. We are also privileged to partner with the Pearl Chase Society, a group dedicated to preserving historic sites of enduring community value in and around Santa Barbara. Together, we will present exceptional artists in three distinguished Santa Barbara buildings.Please see event listings for artist and concert information.

Cuarteto LatinoamericanoSunday, January 13 | 3 & 5 pm

Eichheim HouseIn 1922, violinist/composer Henry Eichheim selected the famed architect George Washington Smith to design this Montecito home. Eichheim quickly adopted Santa Barbara as his home town, hosting concerts here and throughout the community. The structure boasts classically thick stucco walls, recessed windows and a red tile roof. The back wall of the home, facing the courtyard, features two murals painted by Alfred Ramos Martinez, commissioned by Eichheim and Mary Greenough Smith (G.W. Smith’s widow) in the 1930s. Continuing the musical tradition begun by Eichheim, the historical home is a genuine house of music, perfectly suited to enjoy the vibrant tones of Cuarteto Latinoamericano.

Jonathan Biss, pianoFriday, April 4 | 8 pm

The Marjorie Luke TheatreThe architecture of Santa Barbara Junior High School’s historic showplace theater is notably ranked with that of the Mission and the Santa Barbara Courthouse. It is a classic example of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture with its impres-sively stylized tower, arches, extensive tile work, wrought iron and stone work. The building was constructed in 1931 during the Great Depression by WPA workers – talented artists and craftsmen who were out of work. The Theatre’s proscenium stage is framed by ornate plaster relief cherubs and fl orets, a wood vaulted ceil-ing and wrought-iron chandeliers, a romantic setting to enjoy sonatas masterfully performed by prodigious pianist Jonathan Biss.

For more than three decades, the power of Pilobolus, “the most popular modern dance company in the country” (New York Post), has been a deeply collaborative practice and a unique weight-sharing approach to partnering that explores the limits of dance-theater.

Olympia Dukakis in RoseA Concert Reading

Written by Martin Sherman


“A tour de force! That is surely the term for Olympia Dukakis’ performance in Rose.”The New Yorker

Academy Award-winner Olympia Dukakis brings her West End and Broadway hit Rose to Santa Barbara for an unforgettable evening. Rose, an 80-year-old Jewish woman from a tiny shtetl in the Ukraine, revisits the pivotal places and moments in her courageous life; from war-torn Warsaw to the West Bank, to the borscht belts of post-war Atlantic City and modern Miami Beach. A sharply drawn portrait of a feisty survivor, this remarkable play by Martin Sherman is a timely remembrance of the momentous events that shaped the last century.

Philip GlassÉtudes and Other Work for Solo Piano

“I don’t think any rock band or songwriter brings the kind of innovation to the contemporary music landscape that he does.” The New York Times

Philip Glass has had an extraordinary impact on the musical and intellectual life of his times through his operas, symphonies, and diverse collaborations with artists ranging from Allen Ginsberg to Woody Allen to David Bowie. Widely regarded as the founding father of minimalism, “one of the most infl uential movements of recent times” (The Guardian, London), the Oscar-nominated Glass equally excels in ensemble work and fi lm scoring (Notes on a Scandal). Glass will perform études composed from 1976 to the present in an intimate evening featuring his visionary work for solo acoustic piano.

Stephen Sondheim & Frank RichA Little Night Conversation

West Coast debut!

“[Sondheim] is now the greatest and perhaps best-known artist in the American musical theater.” The New York Times Magazine

“Week in and week out, Rich writes what is surely American journalism’s smartest and most original newspaper column…” Los Angeles Times

Legendary theatrical composer Stephen Sondheim will appear in an on-stage interview with author and New York Times op-ed columnist Frank Rich, one of the shrewdest minds and sharpest pens in journalism. As a composer, Sondheim has made Broadway history contributing original music and lyrics to enduring classics such as Sweeney Todd and West Side Story. As a drama critic, Rich possesses what playwright August Wilson has called a “keen sense of history coupled with an unswerving belief in American culture.” Together they will engage in a rare conversation about Sondheim’s epic career.

For information about a post-event reception with Mr. Sondheim and Mr. Rich, call 893-3449.

Perú NegroSanta Barbara debut!

“Who knew a showcase of Afro-Peruvian cultural traditions could be so much unadulterated fun… imbued with theatrical fl air and charming comic digressions.” The Boston Globe

The offi cial ambassadors of Peruvian culture, Perú Negro will perform its intoxicating mix of traditional and new music celebrating Peru’s rich African heritage. The astonishing group of more than 20 singers, dancers and musicians recreates the folkloric music of black Peru, which was born when Africans were forced into slavery by 16th-century Spanish colonizers and has since blossomed into a vital living art form. Garnering two recent Grammy nominations, the group’s Andean melodies, romantic Spanish violin and pervasive African beats have inspired a fresh generation of Afro-Peruvian grooves.

Laurie AndersonHomeland

Santa Barbara premiere!

“Laurie Anderson is a singer-songwriter of crushing poignancy – a minimalist painter of melancholy moods who addresses universal themes in the vernacular of the commonplace.” Rolling Stone

Hailed as “the reigning performance artist of our time” (Boston Globe), the exceptional writer, singer and musician Laurie Anderson brings her ensemble to Santa Barbara to perform her enigmatic and intelligent new piece Homeland. A combination poem, play and concert, Homeland incorporates the synthetic and the sensuous languages of technology, songwriting and poetry to remark on a rapidly changing 21st-century America and the persistent language of war. At the center of Anderson’s “haunting and timeless” (The New Yorker) work is her own lilting and expressive artist’s voice.

Midori, violin Robert McDonald, piano

“Many soloists today have masterly technique, but few conjure such searing intensity seemingly out of nowhere.” The New York Times

In 1986, Midori stunned a rapt audience with her breathtaking mastery of the violin, bringing the house, the orchestra, and the distinguished conductor, Leonard Bernstein, to their knees and inspiring The New York Times headline: “Girl, 14, Conquers Tanglewood with three violins.” Now, well-established in a career that has spanned nearly every major concert hall and orchestra, Midori continues to capture the adoration of audiences world-wide. Renowned for “spinning a silvery thread of tone” (The Guardian, London), the Avery Fisher Prize-winner will perform with the Busoni International Competition’s Gold Medal-winning pianist Robert McDonald.

Private post-recital reception with Midori and Robert McDonald for Producers Circle Members generously supported by Merrill Lynch’s JWS Group.

Aurélia’s OratorioDirected and designed by Victoria Thierrée Chaplin

Circus Theater


“Touching and funny… a refreshing reminder that the best circus tricks are timeless.” The Independent, London

Aurélia Thierrée is the latest to emerge from a long dynasty of great entertainers. Her sweetly engaging family-friendly circus theater spectacle is a riveting combination of physical theater, comedy, magic and dance — all set to a quirky soundtrack of accordions, chamber music and gypsy jazz. Aurélia’s Oratorio is inspired by the blithe humor and silly antics of European Circuses and imbued with a magical, visual wit that London’s Evening Standard has called, “a breath of softly surreal air, an illusion show that softly turns the world upside down and inside out.”

Arlo GuthrieSolo Reunion Tour - Together at Last

“Guthrie is philosophical in a naturally funny and folksy way and… he always manages to pluck a gem from a lot of dirt.” Los Angeles Times

Delightful folk musician and composer Arlo Guthrie returns to Santa Barbara for a solo evening of seamless musical narrative. Guthrie’s remarkable musical journey has seen him pen 1967’s satirical anti-war protest piece “Alice’s Restaurant,” inspiring an entire generation’s commitment to social activism, followed by an appearance at the seminal Woodstock music festival. Nearly half a decade after his fi rst solo concert, Guthrie will take the stage; revisiting solo performance with what he calls “the songs, the humor, the commitment to keep making the world a better place for everyone.”

An Evening with Andy BorowitzSanta Barbara debut!

“A genuine stand-out.” The Guardian, London

Award-winning humorist, author, television personality and fi lm actor Andy Borowitz is a “Swiftean satirist” (The Wall Street Journal) who revels in lampooning the media and popular culture for their missteps and excesses. Borowitz is the reigning humorist on CNN’s American Morning and is known by millions of NPR listeners as the satirical commentator on Weekend Edition. A former president of The Harvard Lampoon, Borowitz is the author and creator of the daily internet column “The Borowitz Report” and the humorous book The Republican Playbook. At the lecture podium, Borowitz fuses cutting-edge content with on-target humor. An equal opportunity satirist, he delves into some of the most crucial issues of the day: politics, media, entertainment and the mania that sweep the nation.

Bobby McFerrin, Chick Corea and Jack DeJohnettePerforming together for the fi rst time!“McFerrin is a musical phenomenon.” The New York Times

“Corea possesses a virtuoso command of the keyboard.” The Philadelphia Inquirer

“Jazz drumming… has never been truer than in our era’s most expressive talent, Jack DeJohnette.” Jazz Times

Grammy Award-winning vocalist McFerrin joins pioneering keyboardist Corea, who boasts a four-decade career and nearly 50 Grammy nominations, and drumming icon DeJohnette, who is widely regarded as one of jazz’s greatest drummers. For the fi rst time together, these three great musical innovators will perform in what promises to be an evening of improvisational fi reworks.

Eiko & Komawith special guest pianist Margaret Leng Tan

Mourning

West Coast debut!

“Their hypnotic pace drives distractions from your mind, frees it to fl ood with images, etched by these human archetypes.” Dance Magazine

Japanese-born choreographers Eiko & Koma create riveting theater of movement out of stillness, shape, light and sound. Honored for their exquisitely wrought productions, they continue to explore new challenges while bringing their artistry to new environments and audiences. Eiko & Koma are the recipients of Guggenheim and MacArthur Fellowships, the 2004 Samuel H. Scripps Award for lifetime achievement in modern dance and two Bessie Awards. They will perform their original work Mourning, a collaborative celebration of the artists’ idiosyncratic spirits that delves into themes of dislocation, death and remembrance, accompanied by pianist and collaborator Margaret Leng Tan following its New York debut in fall 2007.

Salman Rushdie In Conversation with Pico Iyer


“A glittering novelist - one with startling imagination and intellectual resources, a master of perpetual storytelling.” The New Yorker

Salman Rushdie, one of the most celebrated authors of our time, writes thought-provoking novels in a compelling narrative that blends myth and fantasy with real life. Rushdie is the author of the Booker Prize-winning Midnight’s Children and the provocative book The Satanic Verses, deemed sacrilegious by Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini. His most recently released book, Shalimar the Clown, artfully explores the roots of terrorism and the co-existence of different faiths and cultures. One of today’s most intriguing public intellectuals, Rushdie will discuss his work with esteemed author Pico Iyer (The Global Soul).

Lila DownsBack by popular demand!

“Downs’ voice defi es description. It can be kittenishly breathy, hauntingly deep… smooth as a whispering cloud, or painfully stretched in a minor-laden tone typical of Mexico’s south.” Associated Press

Enchanting singer Lila Downs returns to Santa Barbara after her sold-out performance in 2006! Since skyrocketing into the public eye for “Burn It Blue,” her Oscar-nominated contribution to the Frida soundtrack, Downs has invigorated a new wave of Latino-American music. The Latin Grammy-winner seductively layers the strong undercurrent of emotion behind blues and jazz with honky-tonk swing and romantic boleros. With smoldering passion and “earth and fi re vocals” (The Seattle Times), Downs’ affecting songs burrow deep into the heart and mind, invoking lost loves, legends and struggles to live.

Salvatore Licitra, tenorWarren Jones, piano

“The fi rst super-tenor of the 21st century.” The Miami Herald

In 2002, Salvatore Licitra became an overnight sensation with a performance that Newsday called “the most triumphant Met debut in recent memory.” Returning to Santa Barbara after his sold-out area debut in 2005, the commanding vocalist continues to perform a repertory worthy of “the great Italian tradition” (The New York Times) that encompasses the heroic works of Verdi, Puccini and more. Hailed for his rich tone and viscerally powerful top notes, Licitra will be joined by pianist Warren Jones, who is noted for his fl awless technique and fl uid accompaniment.

Private post-recital reception with Salvatore Licitra and Warren Jones for Producers Circle members.

Mark Morris Dance GroupMark Morris, Artistic Director

“[Morris] is intensely musical, deceptively cerebral, insinuatingly sensual, fabulously funky.” Los Angeles Times

Mark Morris Dance Group makes its long-awaited return to Santa Barbara after two decades with a bevy of outstanding accomplishments in the past year alone – among them its 25th Anniversary and a Gramophone Award for Morris’ commitment to live classical music, a feature of every performance. The Group continues to bring the works of its namesake to life with unparalleled conviction, revealing the depth of Morris’ unsurpassed talents in a seemingly endless display of creativity and masterful dancing. “Our Mozart of modern dance” (The Washington Post), Morris creates remarkable choreography that is among the best.

Mezzo-soprano Marilyn Horne has been widely acclaimed for “her staggering vocal and dramatic range, her commitment to opera’s most demanding roles and her technical virtuosity” (The Washington Post). Silvery-toned soprano Barbara Cook is a Broadway darling and Leonard Bernstein’s muse for the legendary role Cunegonde in Candide. Together, these dazzling divas will perform an “astonishingly moving” (The Boston Phoenix) duet performance.

Co-presented with Music Academy of the West.

Arts & Lectures believes that fostering the creation of new work and facilitating its performance are fundamental to inspired presenting. Therefore, we annually commission an artist to choreograph, compose music or create a theater piece.

In May 2008, Arts & Lectures proudly presents Eiko & Koma’s Mourning (see page 27), with special guest

pianist Margaret Leng Tan; an Arts & Lectures co-commission with the
