SUMMARY:Gifts from Friends: a Fundraising Sale from the Collections of Saito and Boyer
DESCRIPTION:Left to right: Posey Bacopoulos\, Ken Sedberry\, Bruce Winn\, Unknown\, Bruce Winn\, Posey Bacopoulos. Photo: Spencer Ruiz.  \nGifts from Friends: a Fundraising Sale from the Collections of Saito and Boyer\nOpening Reception: Wednesday\, May 1\, 2024 | 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.\nSale on View through May 5\, 2024 \nGreenwich House Pottery is pleased to present Gifts from Friends\, a sale from the collections of Takako (Toni) Saito and Michael Boyer to support the Pottery’s capital campaign. The Pottery’s Shape the Future campaign is fundraising for critical updates and enhancements to GHP’s historic Jones Street building to preserve it for future generations. \nSaito and Boyer met at Greenwich House Pottery in 1971 and became fast friends when a year later—by chance—Boyer rented the apartment next door to Saito’s on Cornelia Street. Saito’s legacy lives on today in our studios in the form of our beloved T1-Sculpture Clay\, which she developed. Boyer was a faculty member at GHP for over 30 years. The two remained dear friends\, and Saito left her collection to Boyer upon her passing. In recognition of the important place GHP has held in both of their hearts\, Boyer has donated a selection of works from their collections to support GHP’s Shape the Future campaign. Many of the available works were collected from renowned artists during their exhibitions or workshops at Greenwich House Pottery over the years\, and include work by Posey Bacopoulos\, Paulus Berensohn\, Fong Chow\, Karen Karnes\, Warren Mackenzie\, and Byron Temple. \n

SUMMARY:Uncharted: Raquel Acevedo Klein & Asher Kurtz
DESCRIPTION:Greenwich House Music School is pleased to present Raquel Acevedo Klein & Asher Kurtz in its annual Uncharted Concert Series\, part of the Baisley Powell Elebash Artists in Residence Program.\nDoors open at 7:30 p.m.\nWebsite / Facebook / Instagram / Bandcamp\n\nRecently named by The Washington Post as a “classical composer and performer to watch in 2022\,” conductor\, vocalist\, instrumentalist\, and visual artist Raquel Acevedo Klein has been described by composer Angélica Negrón as a “force to be reckoned with.” (The Washington Post) With her immense versatility as a musician and composer\, Klein is a highly sought after collaborator in the New York City region and surrounding areas. \nThe upcoming season includes performances with Lincoln Center in collaboration with New Latin Wave for FUTUROS\, New Ideas in Composition (Klein performs a selection of her compositions for voice and electronics); a month-long series of live performances with MoMA in collaboration with Shana Moulton and Nick Hallett for Meta/Physical Therapy\, an opera installation (Klein performs as lead vocalist); the SXSW premiere of Adrianne & The Castle (Klein co-composes the film score with Arcade Fire’s Richard Reed Parry\, and records vocals for the lead actress and underscoring of the film); The Shed inside their Sonic Sphere\, a 65-foot-diameter spherical concert hall suspended in air that features immersive\, 3D sound and light explorations of music (The Shed programs her multichannel electroacoustic vocal motet\, Polyphonic Interlace\, which she also performs live); and the premiere of Unfolding the Universe and song cycle set in VR connecting the scientific breakthroughs of the James Webb Space Telescope to human consciousness (as composer in collaboration with VR artist Ashley Zelinskie and in coordination with NASA). Klein is also recording vocals with Grammy Award-winning vocal octet Roomful of Teeth to accompany the upcoming Ken Burns film Leonardo da Vinci\, scored by Caroline Shaw. Opera Philadelphia has also commissioned Klein to compose her first opera to be premiered in a future season\, which she will perform in as the lead role. \nKlein’s dynamic compositions and electric performances have captured the attention of The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, and The Los Angeles Times. Klein’s conducting credits include the New York Philharmonic\, Roomful of Teeth\, the Grammy Award-winning Brooklyn Youth Chorus\, Beth Morrison Projects\, and the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra. She has premiered vocal works by John Adams\, Philip Glass\, Nico Muhly\, Bryce Dessner\, and Paola Prestini. Klein was born and raised in Brooklyn in a Puerto Rican and Colombian family of visual artists. \nFor her Uncharted performance\, Klein joins guitarist Asher Kurtz in the creation of a body of original music featuring voice\, effects-processing\, electronics\, guitarlele\, analog tape loops\, and baritone guitar\, in a performance that will be divided into two parts. The first half will be dedicated to music that explores our human consciousness and cosmic origins through the James Webb Space Telescope. The Webb is an unparalleled yet tangible lens that enables us to observe our past dating back to the first galaxies. This is the story of how we came to exist\, set to music. Each piece incorporates scientific concepts from the telescope as building blocks for its composition. The second half will be a collection of original pieces spanning a variety of genres\, such as classical\, jazz\, opera\, Arabic music\, electroacoustic music\, songwriting\, and immersive audio experiences. “Much of my work is about audience engagement\,” says Klein. “I’m building stories and music that are meant to help engage empathy for communities or ideas outside of the listeners’ immediate experience. The desire for that sense of connection often draws me into creative collaboration as a composer\, as a vocalist and as an instrumentalist. For my Uncharted performance\, I wanted to offer a sort of charcuterie plate of those connections and to celebrate with some of the colleagues that have joined me on my way.” \n\nThe Uncharted concert series\, now in its 10th year at Greenwich House Music School\, provides a much-needed resource for New York-based musicians to develop original material\, foster new collaborations\, and premiere first-look projects in an intimate concert setting. 100% of all ticket sales go directly to the artist. \nFor all press requests\, including artist or staff interviews\, press tickets or for additional information regarding the history and future of Uncharted\, please contact John Seroff at John@GreenHousePublicity.com.

SUMMARY:A Concert Celebration of German Diez
DESCRIPTION:You’re cordially invited to a special celebration of Maestro German Diez on what would’ve been his 100th birthday (1924 – 2024)! Maestro Diez served as our beloved piano chairperson for over 50 years. This concert will feature performances from German’s former students\, peers\, and current GHMS faculty including Erika Nickrenz\, Antoine Zemor\, Jeni Slotchiver\, Bennett Lerner\, Bruce Wolosoff\, Joan Tower\, and more. \nConcert Info: \nDoors 6:30 pm\, Concert 7 pm\n46 Barrow Street\, NYC\nAll proceeds will benefit Greenwich House Music School. \nTickets: \n$350 – VIP Ticket\n$200 – General Admission\n$50 – Livestream (online only) \nVIP tickets include a pre-concert cocktail party at the little owl from 5:30-6:30 pm and reserved concert seating. \nMaestro German Diez: \nGerman Diez was born in Havana\, Cuba on June 18\, 1924. After graduating with highest honors from the Iranzo Conservatorio de Musica in Havana\, where he won the National Music Award competition for studies in foreign countries in 1945\, he came to the United States to study with Claudio Arrau. He performed in the West Indies\, Cuba\, the United States\, and appeared on many radio and television programs. He began his career as a pedagogue in 1948\, and taught winners of many piano competitions\, such as the prestigious William Kapell Piano Competition and the National Fulbright Awards screening committee. \nMaestro Diez came on board as piano faculty to Greenwich House Music School in 1950 and became Chair of the piano department in 1968. He was also on faculty at Bard College\, SUNY Purchase\, Hunter College\, and the Brooklyn Conservatory. He also assisted in the development of the book “Piano Lessons with Claudio Arrau” by Victoria A. Von Arx. Over the course of his tenure at Greenwich House Music School\, Maestro Diez taught more than 1\,500 students. His influence can be seen in every aspect of the school’s operations\, including the way it gauges student progress through recitals and end-of-year concerts. In 1997 Greenwich House established a fund for the German Diez Piano Scholarship. The scholarships in his name are given on the basis of merit and need to promising piano students. \nSpecial thanks to the the Little Owl\, Mark Rudd and Tracy Dockray\, and the Reflections in Music series for their kind support of this performance.
