[New_csc_newsline] Fwd: Coming Up: Masterclass with Cellist Matt Haimovitz & Building Community through Broadcast from Home

Wed May 27 12:45:48 EDT 2020

Concert Singers - here is a great opportunity to learn a bit about the
Broadcast from Home project that we are going to participate in June 4-8.
The composer, Lisa Bielawa, is holding a free online forum about the
project, tomorrow (Thursday) at 4 pm. You can scroll down to the second
event in the email below to see information and how to register. There is
no cost to participate.

The Next Festival of Emerging Artists is sponsoring the forum. The Next
Festival is a summer festival run by my NC colleague, Peter Askim. As you
can imagine, they are not able to hold the festival in the typical way this
summer, so they are doing several of these types of forums.

All the best,
Nathan

*Artist Bio:*
Renowned as a musical pioneer, Grammy-nominated cellist *Matt Haimovitz *is
praised by *The New York Times* as a “ferociously talented cellist who
brings his megawatt sound and uncommon expressive gifts to a vast variety
of styles” and by *The New Yorker *as “remarkable virtuoso” who “never
turns in a predictable performance.” He brings a fresh ear to familiar
repertoire, champions new music, and initiates groundbreaking
collaborations, as well as creating innovative recording projects. In
addition to his relentless touring schedule, Haimovitz mentors an
award-winning studio of young cellists at the Schulich School of Music of
McGill University in Montreal and is now the first-ever John Cage Fellow at
The New School's Mannes School of Music in New York City.

*Thursday, May 28, 4 PM ET Building Community through Broadcast from Home,
presented by Lisa Bielawa*

*Seminar Overview:*
*Broadcast from Home* fosters community during the isolation of the
coronavirus crisis, and will be continuously created through a responsive
and participatory artistic process. Creating a large-scale participatory
project like *Broadcast from Home* under lockdown has brought new insights,
skills and values to my practice. I will share both the how and the why of
this project, with detailed descriptions of how it evolved and what we have
made and learned.
