Ensemble intercontemporain
Conductor Erik Nielsen
The Japanese composer Dai Fujikura and the choreographer/stage designer Saburo Teshigawara have created their opera version of "Solaris", creating a sort of "magic" space of the 21st century.
Opera in four acts, Premiere
Commissioned by the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, Opéra de Lille, Opéra de Lausanne, Ensemble intercontemporain, and IRCAM-Centre Pompidou.
Performance in English, subtitled in French.
Solaris (Lit. "sunny" in Latin), the cult novel by Stanislaw Lem written in 1961, has fascinated film makers from Andreï Tarkovski to the American Steven Soderbergh. The surface of the planet Solaris, entirely covered by an ocean, hosts an intelligent extra-terrestrial life form. Using the vehicle of a science fiction adventure, Lem explores and meditates human behavior, hope, and the fantasies of tomorrow.
Thursday, March 5 and Saturday, 7, 2015, 7:30pm / Théâtre des Champs-Élysées

Unsuk Chin: Alice in Wonderland

BBC Symphony Orchestra
Baldur Brönnimann conductor
Netia Jones director / designer and video artist
with illustrations from Ralph Steadman
Lewis Carroll’s beloved, dreamlike stories are startlingly re-imagined in this UK premiere production of Unsuk Chin’s operatic adaptation of Alice in Wonderland.
A glittering and crazed work by Chin and librettist David Henry Hwang, the riotous exhilaration and jet-black humour of the score meet their match tonight in Netia Jones’s tour de force production.
Celebrated for her innovative multimedia creations, including Britten’s Curlew River at St Giles Cripplegate in 2013, director/designer/video artist Jones realises her vision of the composer’s surreal take on Carroll by combining the darkly imaginative illustrations of gonzo-artist Ralph Steadman with live action, interactive animated projections, eye-popping costumes and choreography.
Please note that this production is not suitable for under-12s.

Total Immersion: Boulez at 90
Barbican Hall, London
Barbican, Silk Street, London EC2
United Kingdom
020 7638 8891
http://www.barbican.org.uk/eticketing
Pierre Boulez is one of the most important voices in post-war European culture. As a composer he has defined the sound of 20th and 21st century music; as conductor he has re-defined the possibilities of Mahler, Wagner and more; as cultural thinker he has shaken up the establishment; and as a teacher he has inspired the next generation. In 2015 we celebrate his 90th year with a BBC Symphony Orchestra Total Immersion day and concerts by the London Symphony Orchestra and the pioneering Ensemble Intercontemporain, founded by Boulez himself in 1976.

A New Sounds Live co-presentation hosted by WNYC’s John Schaefer
Presented by Kaufman Music Center at Merkin Concert Hall
Three of today’s top contemporary composer/performers join forces to build on previous collaborations and premiere a new work. It’s a trio unlike any other – a combination of the effusive, white-hot power of America’s premier string quartet ETHEL raw, emotionally charged picking and pounding of guitarist Kaki King; and complex harmonies and structures of composer/guitarist/violist John King. This eclectic program includes world premieres written both individually and collaboratively, as well as some existing pieces, peppered by guitars, dobros, banjos and ouds.
