TĹŚN launched its 2021–22 season with three programs at the Fisher Center at Bard in September and early October, which included the premiere of Brahmsiana by conductor/composer Leonard Slatkin, who made his debut with TĹŚN performing works by Cindy McTee and Mussorgsky; and music director Leon Bostein conducting Dawson’s Negro Folk Symphony, Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 7, Strauss’ Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks, and Bruckner’s Symphony No. 5. Sunday, October 31, 2021 at 3 PM Rose Theater at Jazz at Lincoln Center Carlos Miguel Prieto, conductor Solange Merdinian, mezzo-soprano Messiaen: Le tombeau resplendissant (The Resplendent Tomb) Debussy: La Mer (The Sea) Falla: El Sombrero de Tres Picos (The Three-Cornered Hat) JosĂ© Pablo Moncayo: Huapango |
The diverse program features French, Mexican, and Spanish composers, including Messiaen’s Le tombeau resplendissant, which he described as a type of epitaph in four main sections and was written when he was only 24. The next work is Debussy’s milestone, impressionistic interpretation of La Mer (The Sea) with its three movements that he preferred to call “symphonic sketches.” Manuel de Falla’s music to the ballet El Sombrero de Tres Picos was commissioned by Sergei Diaghilev and premiered in 1919. The soloist in this work, Armenian-American mezzo-soprano Solange Merdinian, is a 2009 graduate of Bard Conservatory's Graduate Vocal Arts Program, and co-founder and co-artistic director of the non-profit organization New Docta and the New Docta International Festival in Argentina. She won the 2019 Pro Musicis Competition, completed a four-year world tour of Einstein on the Beach with the Philip Glass Ensemble, and has performed at Madison Square Garden and Carnegie Hall. Closing the program is Mexican composer/conductor JosĂ© Pablo Moncayo’s Huapango. Moncayo was commissioned by Carlos Chávez to write a piece based on the folkloric music of the Veracruz area. Closely associated with Mexican nationalism, the resulting piece remains one of his most popular works. Tickets priced at $25–$50 are available online at jazz.org, by calling CenterCharge at 212.721.6500, or at the Jazz at Lincoln Center box office at Broadway & 60th, Ground Floor. Ticket holders need to comply with the venue’s health and safety requirements, which can be found here.

Announce
TROUBLE IN MIND
TICKETING PARTNERSHIP WITH WBLS-FM
300 TICKETS AVAILABLE
FOR ALL PREVIEW PERFORMANCES AT $19.57
COMMEMORATING THE YEAR THIS PLAY WAS
INTENDED TO DEBUT ON BROADWAY
The Broadway premiere of Trouble in Mind by Alice Childress, is partnering with radio station 107.5 WBLS-FM, the nation’s most recognizable Black radio station, offering 300 tickets at $19.57 to every preview performance in every section of the theater.
This special offer reflects the year Childress’ play was originally intended to make its Broadway premiere in 1957. But that premiere never came to be because this play – written by a Black female playwright – about racism and progress in the American theater, was ignored and snubbed from having its planned Broadway debut. Now, with this history-referenced and affordable price point, Roundabout Theatre Company in collaboration with WBLS, strives to broaden and provide greater accessibility to anyone that wants to experience a live theatrical production on Broadway while also honoring Childress’ memory and the legacy of others who came before her and continue the fight.
The $19.57 ticket price will be available for performances beginning Friday, October 29 through Wednesday, November 17, subject to availability, while inventory lasts. To access this offer, please visit WBLSTrouble.org. Additionally, anyone who has purchased tickets for preview performances already, may request a price adjustment or donate the balance of their ticket to Roundabout Theatre Company and support programs including The Refocus Project which aims to transform the American theatre canon.
In addition to WBLS, Roundabout Theatre Company is also partnering with a variety of print and online community-based media outlets to ensure access and exposure throughout the run of the play.
*********************************************************************
The event will be hosted on Zoom on Friday, October 29th at 3:30 pm ET and 3:30 pm PT.
3:30pm ET and 3:30pm PT (for West Coast families).
