MOMIX

Saturday, October 16, 2010
Jones Hall
With puppets, magical lighting, an athletic troupe and an array of vivid costumes at his disposal, Artistic Director Moses Pendleton pays homage to nature with his latest creation, following the rhythms of the New England seasons. Flora and fauna, all in human form, come to life, express themselves and exit life’s stage metaphorically. Pendleton’s choreography is a welcome respite from the technologically constructed civilization around us. It is easy to see why audiences have embraced this beautifully symbolic dance through the seasons.

Ella
8 p.m. Thursday, February 17, 2011 &
Friday, February 18, 2011
Cullen Theater, Wortham Center
Fitzgerald was one of the most important vocalists of the 20th century. Legendary crooners like Crosby, Sinatra and Mel Torme all said she was the very best. Now, in Ella, myth, memory and the beautiful voice of Tina Fabrique conspire to tell a poignant, personal story from the heart of “The First Lady of Song.”
It’s 1966, and the fabled songstress is preparing for one of the most important concerts of her career. As she jams with the musicians, including famed trumpeter Louis Armstrong, Ella reflects on her life, her secrets and her love of music. Fabrique captures the artist’s emotion like no one else can, giving us an intimate glimpse of what must’ve been inside, and then wooing us with more than a dozen of her most famous hits, including “A Tisket, A Tasket,” “How High the Moon,” “That Old Black Magic” and “They Can’t Take That Away from Me.” We’re sure you’ll fall in love all over again with the magic and soul of Ella Fitzgerald.

ScrapArtsMusic
7:30 p.m. Friday, February 25, 2011
Cullen Theater, Wortham Center
Recycling rocks! Sure, there are plenty of people touting eco- and economic benefits. But Gregory Kozak and the members of ScrapArtsMusic have made it an art form; a couple of art forms, actually. A couple of art forms, actually. Fashioned from industrial scrap and offbeat shells, this group’s collection of nearly 150 original, one-of-a-kind instruments looks like it would be at home in a post-Apocalyptic gallery showing. Led by Kozak and his team of virtuoso drummers, ScrapArtsMusic puts on a percussive production consisting of intricate rhythms, raw energy, athletic chorepgraphy and the greenest – not to mention the most inventive – reuse of materials on stage today. Transcending language and culture, ScrapArtsMusic is wildly theatrical and thoroughly entertaining for adults and kids alike. Oh, and it’s good for the environment.

Doc Severinsen & El Ritmo de la Vida Jazz Ensemble
8 p.m. Friday, May 6, 2011
Jones Hall
In 2006, with retirement on his mind, Doc Severinsen, the longtime bandleader of The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, moved to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. And then he heard classical guitarist Gil Gutierrez and violinist Pedro Cartas play. Well, so much for retirement. The fashionable and funny Severinsen can still blow the trumpet like very few others, and his stage presence is unmatched. Together with the world-class talent of Gutierrez and Cartas, these three have put together an innovative and exciting program. Latino music with a European flair, the music and the experience have universal appeal. El Ritmo de la Vida means “the rhythm of life,” and audiences everywhere are feeling it and loving it. You won’t want to miss this performance, as part of our Cinco de Mayo celebration.
