Los Angeles Master Chorale Announces 54th Season

New works, multimedia presentations, performances of choral masterworks, and an expansive state-wide community singing project that will have global reach comprise the Los Angeles Master Chorale's 54th season announced today by Artistic Director Grant Gershon and President and CEO Jean Davidson.

The 2017/18 season will see the choir present 9 programs in 12 concerts in Walt Disney Concert Hall from September 2017 through June 2018. The Los Angeles Master Chorale is a resident company of The Music Center of Los Angeles and the choir-in-residence at Walt Disney Concert Hall. 2017/18 will be the Master Chorale's 54th season and Gershon's 17th season as the Kiki & David Gindler Artistic Director. Previously a blend of professional and supplemental singers, a significant personnel change in the 2017/18 season will be that the Master Chorale will have 100 fully professional singers, making it among the largest professional chorale ensembles in the world.

"This is a tremendously exciting season for the Los Angeles Master Chorale as we forge new relationships and bring Disney Hall to the world!" said Gershon. "I'm particularly thrilled to share the podium with the legendary María Guinand, our brilliant Swan Family Artist-in-Residence Eric Whitacre, and our fantastically gifted Assistant Conductor Jenny Wong; and to welcome guest artists wild Up and Kevork Mourad. From Bach and Brahms to Ellen Reid and Caroline Shaw, the Master Chorale explores and nurtures the fullest range of choral music imaginable, and our Big Sing California will allow people throughout the Golden State and beyond to sing along with one of the world's great choirs."

The 2017/18 season will be the second presented under President and CEO Jean Davidson who joined the organization in 2015. She said: "Engaging new audiences, especially those with limited access to the arts, is a priority for the Los Angeles Master Chorale and the best way I know to accomplish this goal is through programming. With the Big Sing California we will engage communities in under-served areas in the state, and this group sing will be shared globally through live-streaming. We are also focused on engaging the Venezuelan, Syrian, and Armenian communities next season with our guest artists. And while we will always perform the work of the great masters such as Brahms and Bach, supporting female composers and conductors is also a priority. We are the voice of L.A., and the voice of L.A. is diverse in the broadest sense of the term-age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, economic status-and we hope to reflect this from the stage in not only who we are, but what we sing."

BIG SING CALIFORNIA

The 2017/18 season will further expand beyond Los Angeles culminating in July 2018 with a state-wide shared singing project called Big Sing California. The Los Angeles Master Chorale aims to engage with a broad cross-section of people throughout the state beginning in 2017 and leading up to a concert led by Swan Family Artist-in-Residence Eric Whitacre in Walt Disney Concert Hall in July 2018 that will be live-streamed. Expanding beyond existing choirs and singing groups, it will encourage people of all ages and abilities to find their voice and be part of a group experience, learning new techniques and songs together. No previous singing experience is necessary and the aim of the project is to be open to all.

"When you sing in an ensemble you learn compassion, you learn empathy, you learn discipline, you learn history, you learn focus-all of these things that are essential for every part of your life," said Whitacre. "But with choral music you get the addition of language so you're beginning to sing and think about the great questions of the human mystery: why are we here? What are we doing? What is love? What is death? You start to build an ethical foundation through the art that you're singing. Then, on top of that, there is study after study showing the health and welfare benefits of singing. We now know that just singing together in a group reduces the stress hormone cortisol, it releases endorphins, it causes a sense of joy and euphoria and it creates a physiological bonding chemical between the people in the room."

Participating Big Sing California groups will connect by learning the same pieces of music. A Big Sing California website will be developed and serve as a resource center for Los Angeles Master Chorale-curated materials and online tutorials to guide the participants in learning and rehearsing the program. Participants will be invited to connect with each other through the website and build an online community as the project progresses. On the day of the performance, some participants will attend and sing at Walt Disney Concert Hall while others will watch and sing via a live-stream, allowing for world-wide participation.

A Big Sing L.A. launch event will be held on Saturday, June 24 bringing people together to sing in Grand Park in downtown Los Angeles. This event will be part of the 2017 Chorus America conference being held June 21-24, 2017 and hosted by the Los Angeles Master Chorale and will be led by conductors Grant Gershon, Eric Whitacre, Rollo Dilworth, Josephine Lee, and Francisco Nuñez. Anyone interested in participating in these Big Sing events is invited to register their interest with Adrien Redford, Los Angeles Master Chorale Audience Engagement Coordinator,aredford@lamasterchorale.org.

The Big Sing California is supported by a grant from The James Irvine Foundation, with additional funding provided by the California Arts Council, and the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.

The Big Sing California project is in addition to the Los Angeles Master Chorale's concert season performed in Walt Disney Concert Hall.

DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS

Sunday, October 29, 2017 - 7 pm

Themed around death and celebration, and timed to coincide with the vibrant Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) festivities that take place in Los Angeles over this weekend and also the Getty-led Pacific Standard Time LA/LA initiative, guest conductor María Guinand leads an a cappella program exploring a range of Latin American traditions with works by Mexican, Argentinian, and Cuban composers. Revered in her homeland of Venezuela and renowned worldwide, Guinand made her debut with the Los Angeles Master Chorale in 2010 as a guest conductor at the High School Choir Festival and returned in 2015 to lead a Community Sing event at First Methodist Church in Glendale.

About María Guinand

Always interested in new choral music, she has been involved in projects such as the premieres, performances, and recordings of Osvaldo Golijov's La Pasión según San Marcos and John Adams' A Flowering Tree.

For over three decades, Guinand has been the Associate Conductor and Advisor of Choral Symphonic Performances and Activities for El Sistema, the world-renowned music program in Venezuela.

ISRAEL IN EGYPT

Sunday, February 11, 2018 - 7 pm

With its multi-year Hidden Handel project, Grant Gershon and the Los Angeles Master Chorale committed to presenting Handel's great, but under-presented oratorios in collaboration with leading directors and artists. The project began in 2016 with a performance Alexander's Feast directed by Trevore Ross and continues with this performance of Handel's biblical oratorio Israel in Egypt.

Featuring the most choruses of any of Handel's oratorios, Israel in Egypt chronicles the exodus of the Israelites and the plagues that besieged Egypt, the work's story of human diaspora resonating today. To enhance the themes in the work and to complement the storytelling, the performance will feature dynamic projected artwork by Syrian/Armenian visual artist Kevork Mourad. Using drawing, animation, and film Mourad will also create "spontaneous paintings" in real-time from the stage during the performance. Now based in New York and committed to highlighting the Syrian refugee crisis in his work, Mourad brings a personal perspective to the oratorio's theme of displacement and the entrenched human instinct to return home.

This will be the Los Angeles Master Chorale's first full performance of all three parts of Israel in Egypt. It previously performed parts II and III in 2002 as part of its own concert series with Gershon during his very first season.

Watch Kevork Mourad talk about this project.

About Kevork Mourad

Kevork Mourad was born in 1970 in Kamechli, a town in the upper reaches of Syria. Of Armenian origin, he received his MFA from the Yerevan Institute of Fine Arts in Armenia, and he now lives and works in New York.

With his technique of spontaneous painting, where he shares the stage with musicians-a collaboration in which art and music develop in counterpoint to each other-he has worked with many world class musicians. He is a member, as a visual artist, of Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble, the only non-musician member of the group. Mourad and Silk Road Ensemble clarinetist Kinan Azmeh have presented their 60-minute audio-visual performance Home Within-an impressionistic reflection on the Syrian revolution and its aftermath-at the Kennedy Center and the Brooklyn Museum of Art among other prestigious venues throughout North America and Europe.

REID AND RILEY

Sunday, May 13, 2018 - 7 pm

The Los Angeles Master Chorale presents the world premiere of a significant new choral work, dreams of the new world, by composer Ellen Reid co-commissioned by the Master Chorale and The Choir of Trinity Wall Street (New York). Featuring L.A.'s innovative wild Up ensemble, Reid's new four-movement work is a poetic investigation of the American frontier mentality. Working with librettist Sarah LaBrie and lead researcher Sayd Randle, dreams of the new world's libretto is drawn from interviews conducted by the creative team in Memphis, Houston, and Los Angeles, cities chosen for their history of expansion in addition to personal connections. Reid will workshop the new piece with the UC Irvine Chamber Singers and Director of Choral Activities Seth Houston.

The concert will also feature a performance of Terry Riley's iconic 1964 minimalist work In C performed by wild Up and 32 members of the Los Angeles Master Chorale. The piece, which the composer says can be performed by ensembles of various size and for a varying length of time, has rarely been performed by choral ensembles.

About Ellen Reid

Ellen Reid is a composer and sound artist whose work "brims with canny invention" (LA Weekly). Reid's work is largely collaborative and takes the form of opera, chamber music, electronic pop songs, scores for film and theater, and immersive interactive installations.

A former teacher, Reid has been a lifelong advocate for education. In 2016 Reid and composer Missy Mazzoli co-founded Luna Composition Lab, a mentorship program directed at young self-identified female and gender non-conforming composers, in partnership with Face The Music. Reid also has works in progress with cellist Johannes Moser, Brooklyn Youth Chorus, librettist Royce Vavrek, wild Up, Chromatic, VisionIntoArt, and Beth Morrison Projects. In November 2016 she was an artist-in-residence at National Sawdust in Brooklyn, New York. In 2015, Reid and Sarah LaBrie created three chapters for the acclaimed Hopscotch opera project presented by The Industry.

BRAHMS REQUIEM

Saturday, June 9, 2018 - 2 pm

Sunday, June 10, 2018 - 7 pm

The 2017/18 concert season closes with Brahms' Ein Deutsches Requiem Op. 45 conducted by Gershon. With expansive themes of life, love and death, the Requiem is a pillar of the choral repertoire and has been performed numerous times by the Los Angeles Master Chorale, its last performances in 2013 with Gershon. Other illustrious conductors the Master Chorale has performed this work with have included Roger Wagner, Robert Shaw, Zubin Mehta, Carlo Maria Giulini, André Previn, Paul Salamunovich, and Gustavo Dudamel.

Trinidadian soprano Jeanine De Bique will be the guest soprano. De Bique, who has been described as an artist with "dramatic presence and versatility" by The Washington Post, has previously sung the Brahms Requiem under the baton of the late Lorin Maazel with the Munich Philharmonic and L'Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana. She performed as a soloist in Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with the Santa Barbara Symphony in October 2016, and sang the role of Micaëla in Opera Santa Barbara's Carmen in November. (Baritone soloist to be announced.)

The concerts will open with works by Pulitzer Prize-winning composers, Caroline Shaw and David Lang. Lang's where you go is a rewriting of what he remembers as his favorite part of the biblical Book of Ruth, and the famous lines wherein Ruth tells Naomi that she will stay with her forever. Lang won the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2008 for the little match girl passion that features on the Los Angeles Master Chorale's 2016 recording for Cantaloupe Music paired with Lang's national anthems. Shaw was the youngest-ever recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2013 for her Partita for Eight Voices. Fly Away I will be the first of Shaw's works to be performed by the Master Chorale.
