All performances take place at Bing Concert Hall, unless otherwise noted.

Our classical recitals will feature violinist Joshua Bell, two di"erent sopranos, Deborah Voigt and Angela Brown, and pianist Richard Goode. The names of these great artists speak for themselves.

Our premieres will include an evening-length work entitled Linked Verse by Stanford composer Jaroslaw Kapuscinski, which will feature #D stereoscopic projection and which we will produce with the Stanford Department of Music. Atlantic Crossing will bring two internationally renowned Bay Area ensembles—Chanticleer and New Century Chamber Orchestra—together for the first time in an exciting musical collaboration.

I am extremely pleased to announce the return of dance to our season. The French choreographer Jérôme Bel will bring us a festival of three full-length pieces, which we will present with the Stanford Dance Division. The acclaimed Brazilian company Grupo Corpo, known for its joyous and sensuous athleticism, will present entirely di"erent but equally satisfying work.

We have renewed our commitment to performances for the entire family. Acclaimed pianist Christopher O’Riley will return with his popular From the Top. Other family events will include a special holiday concert with the San Francisco Boys Chorus and the comic genius of virtuoso vaudevillian Tomá! Kubínek.

A central aspect of our mission is to support the future of the arts. Stanford Live devotes significant resources toward the artistic development of both Stanford students and Peninsula area K–12 students. You may not know that all our performances are available to

Stanford students for only $10 or that thousands of elementary school students attend special performances at almost no cost to them.

It would not be possible to bring the finest performing artists in the world to such an intimate hall without the generous support of our members, our annual donors, and our loyal subscribers. I encourage you to join our family of supporters when making your subscription selections.

The performing arts at Stanford are transforming hearts and minds far beyond our campus. All of us at Stanford Live look forward to sharing these memorable experiences with you this coming season!

Wiley Hausam Executive Director

P.S. In response to a growing chorus of comments we’ve heard from our audience, we will move our evening performance time from 8:00 PM to 7:30 PM (except for Sunday evenings, which will remain at 7:00 PM). We look forward to hearing how well this suits your schedule.

WELCOME TOSTANFORDLIVE !BING CONCERT HALL

Bing Concert Hall is an ideal space for the nuanced, delicate, and complex

textures of the string quartet literature. Next season, we will focus our chamber music program around an exploration of the quartet repertoire. The heart of the chamber music experience at Stanford is the St. Lawrence String Quartet. It also will sponsor a young quartet, the Aeolus, whom we are excited to introduce to you. To these, we will add the unstoppable Kronos and the Takács, one of the world’s preeminent interpreters of Bartók’s string quartets.

Treme, the wildly popular HBO television series famous for its portrayal of New Orleans music and tales of intrepid musicians in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, brings its soundtrack to the Bing, courtesy of the legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band.

Preservation Hall will be joined by Ivan Neville, son of Aaron Neville and leader of Dumpstaphunk; Leo Nocentelli, guitarist from the Meters; and Stanton Moore, drummer of Galactic!

Mariza, vocals / Jose Neto, Portuguese guitar Pedro Jóia, acoustic guitar / Nando Araujo, acoustic bass Vicky Marques, percussionReserved Seating $25 / 36 / 48 / Premium $60

Of both Portuguese and African descent, Mariza has come to be known as the embodiment of modern fado, Lisbon’s emotion-filled folk music. Her soulful voice expresses the essence of this melancholy art form, a song style dating back to the early 19th century and imbued with themes of longing, separation, and reconnection. Mariza reinterprets the classical style of “fado tradicional,” adding her own modern signature for an updated sound. She and her acoustic ensemble convey pure emotion in their tales of the Portuguese sea and sun.

The “diva of world music.”—Guardian

“California-born Jessica Rivera epitomizes the younger,

post-Upshaw generation of American soprano, as much at home

in Golijov, Salonen, and Adams as she is in the conventional

song literature and uncommonly eloquent in all of them.”

The internationally acclaimed French choreographer and conceptual artist Jérôme Bel enjoys a reputation as one of the coolest conceptual dance makers working today. His ironic, antitheatrical productions question the nature of dance and the dividing line between audience and performer. The Show Must Go On features a mix of the finest Bay Area professional dancers with untrained Stanford (students, faculty, and sta") and Silicon Valley “civilians”, each performing to their own classic pop soundtrack via headset.

In this autobiographical solo, we spend an intimate 80 minutes with Andrieux during which he tells us his story and also dances phrases and short sections of the famous ballets and Cunningham choreography that defined his career. This is a compelling look inside a dancer’s life.

Its work combines the sensuality of Afro-Brazilian dance forms and the technical prowess of ballet with a contemporary, highly theatrical sensibility. In Sem Mim, or “Without Me,” dancers embark on a journey of evolution from sea to earth, their movements flowing and organic.

Two internationally renowned Bay Area ensembles join forces for the first time in a unique combination of male chorus and chamber orchestra. It was the 1930s, with the swing of Gershwin and Ellington’s orchestras and close vocal harmonies of the Comedian Harmonists. Atlantic Crossing evokes this intoxicating and dynamic time between the two world wars, imagining a cruise ship traveling between Germany and New York in these years of whirlwind creativity when European composers were migrating to the United States. This exciting program incorporates the music of the 1920s and 1930s, reflecting the complex world after World War I was over and the Jazz Age had begun.Generously supported by Clinton and Mary Gilliland

Angela Brown personifies the ideal American dramatic soprano with her sheer vocal power, luxurious finesse, shimmering, high pianissimos, and a charming personality larger than life. Her highly successful Metropolitan Opera debut in 2004 as Verdi’s Aida sparked rave reviews and spawned her operatic career.
