Demonby Anton RubinsteinRuns through Friday, December 31, 2021UPSTREAMING2018, Sosnoff Theater, SummerScape Rubinstein’s operatic masterpiece is based on a poem depicting the isolation and despair of a fallen angel. Premiered to great acclaim in 1871, Demon received its first fully staged U.S. performances at Bard in 2018.

OresteiaComposer in Context: Sergey TaneyevRuns through Friday, December 31, 2021UPSTREAMINGBard SummerScape Opera and the Bard Music Festival have become synonymous with a new kind of concert experience, one that provides a “rich web of context” (New York Times) for a full appreciation of each composer’s inspirations, significance, and legacy. This week, UPSTREAMING illuminates the world of Russian composer Sergey Taneyev (1856–1915). A highly gifted pianist and composer, Taneyev was a protégé and champion of Tchaikovsky’s, serving as soloist in early performances of the older composer’s piano concertos. Taneyev was one of Russia’s most influential music theorists, teaching for nearly three decades at the Moscow Conservatory, where his students included Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, and Glière; Stravinsky later recalled how highly he valued Taneyev’s treatise on counterpoint, calling it “one of the best books of its kind.” Yet in striving to synthesize counterpoint with folksong, he developed a distinct compositional voice that looked forward to Stravinsky himself.

EuryantheComposer in Context: Carl Maria von WeberRuns through Friday, December 31, 2021UPSTREAMINGBard SummerScape Opera and the Bard Music Festival have become synonymous with a new kind of concert experience, one that provides a “rich web of context” (New York Times) for a full appreciation of each composer’s inspirations, significance, and legacy. This week, UPSTREAMING illuminates the work of German Romantic composer Carl Maria von Weber (1786–1826), featuring:
Carl Maria von Weber’s short life was marked by many lows—frequent illnesses, an arrest on embezzlement and other charges—but he also became one of the most influential composers of the early 19th century whose prodigious gifts as a composer, pianist, conductor, and writer bring to mind Mozart. The premiere of Der Freischütz in 1821, an opera that immediately captured the imagination of audiences in Europe and beyond, was a transformative event in the history of Romanticism and helped to usher in a new sensibility in music. He did not have a comparable success in the remaining five years of his life, although the overtures to his later Euryanthe and Oberon became repertory standards. In these operas, and in less familiar compositions, his masterful orchestration and compelling evocation of mood became models for composers from Meyerbeer to Wagner, Liszt, Berlioz, Glinka, and Hindemith.

The Wreckersby Ethel SmythRuns through Friday, December 31, 2021UPSTREAMINGThis engrossing program encompasses varied works exploring religion and spirituality through the lens of female composers: Dame Ethel Smyth’s The Wreckers, staged at Bard in 2015, animates a moral drama about social justice and personal courage, while Lili Boulanger’s Psalm 130 “Du fond de l'abîme” (1917) offers a deeply personal requiem dedicated to her father. Lera Auerbach’s Violin Concerto No. 3, “De Profundis” (2015) with Vadim Repin rounds out the program. Featuring:

Closer to Life: Drawings and Works on Paper in the Marieluise Hessel Collection
Runs through Sunday, October 17, 2021
12–6 pm
CCS GalleriesCCS Bard celebrates its 30th anniversary with Closer to Life, an exhibition of over forty artists of drawings and works on paper from the Marieluise Hessel Collection.
The exhibition of over 75 drawings and works on paper spans more than four decades of collecting by philanthropist, Marieluise Hessel, who co-founded the Center for Curatorial Studies in 1990. Closer to Life tracks a lifetime of collecting that spans periods of Hessel’s life spent in Germany, Mexico and the United States. Accompanied by a fully illustrated catalog that documents the entire collection of more than 300 works on paper, the exhibition presents highlights that reverberate with questions of gender, sexuality, race and politics often through personal expression and individual concerns. Revisiting different artistic periods and contexts, the exhibition draws out both contrasts and comparisons between artists, modes of representation and the continuing vitality of drawing (and paper) as an artistic medium.
The museum is open from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Wednesday through Monday, closed on Tuesdays.Sponsored by: Center for Curatorial Studies.

UNIVERSES’ original plays include Slanguage, (included in the anthology, The Fire This Time, African American Plays for the 21st Century, TCG), Ameriville, The Ride, The Denver Project, One Shot in the Lotus Position, Blue Suite, Live from the Edge, Party People (performed at The Public Theater in New York City in 2016), and AmericUS, which premiered at Cincinnati Playhouse, 2019-2020.

Impostor Syndrome:
Notes on Writing and Asian American Identity
Hua Hsu, Associate Professor of English and American Studies, Vassar College and Staff Writer, The New Yorker
Tuesday, September 21, 2021
5–6:30 pm
Campus Center, Weis CinemaA consideration of how various Asian American writers and artists have wrestled with questions of authority and imposture, from thirties Chinatown authors to the first generations of authors who worked under the banner of "Asian American literature" in the sixties, from contemporary manifestations of "impostor syndrome" (wherein individuals doubt their own authority--a condition psychologists have deemed unusually prevalent among Asian American students) to my own work on memoir.
Hua Hsu is an Associate Professor of English and American Studies at Vassar College, and a Staff Writer at the New Yorker. His first book, A Floating Chinaman: Fantasy and Failure Across the Pacific, was published in 2015 by Harvard University Press. In 2022, Doubleday will publish Stay True, a memoir. He is currently working on an essay collection about identity and imposture called Impostor Syndrome. He serves on the boards of the Asian American Writers' Workshop and Critical Minded, an initiative to support cultural critics of color.Sponsored by: American and Indigenous Studies Program; Asian Studies Program; Dean of the College; Literature Program.
