SUMMARY:Hamlet
DESCRIPTION:Prior to purchasing tickets please review our COVID-19 Safety Measures and Policies.\nPurchasing tickets in advance is STRONGLY encouraged. Due to distanced seating in the theatre\, capacity is limited and walk-ups might not be able to be accommodated. \nWhen Australian composer Brett Dean’s Hamlet had its world premiere at the Glyndebourne Festival in 2017\, The Guardian declared\, “New opera doesn’t often get to sound this good … Shakespeare offers a gauntlet to composers that shouldn’t always be picked up\, but Dean’s Hamlet rises to the challenge.” On June 4\, this riveting contemporary masterpiece appears live in cinemas\, with Neil Armfield\, who directed the work’s premiere\, bringing his acclaimed staging to the Met. Many of the original cast members have followed\, including tenor Allan Clayton in the title role. Nicholas Carter makes his Met debut conducting a remarkable ensemble\, which also features soprano Brenda Rae as Ophelia\, mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly as Gertrude\, baritone Rod Gilfry as Claudius\, and bass-baritone John Relyea the ghost of Hamlet’s father.

SUMMARY:TAJ MAHAL - Livestream
DESCRIPTION:Composer\, multi-instrumentalist\, vocalist\, multi-GRAMMY® winner\, multi-Blues Music Award winner\, Blues Hall of Fame member and Americana Music Association’s Lifetime Achievement award recipient TAJ MAHAL streaming LIVE to the comforts of your own home from the UC Theatre stage in Berkeley\, CA.  This will be Taj’s first ever livestream performance! \nTaj is a towering musical figure — a legend who transcended the blues not by leaving them behind\, but by revealing their magnificent scope to the world. Quantifying the 77- year-old’s significance is impossible\, but people try anyway. A 2017 Grammy win for TajMo\, Taj’s collaboration with Keb’ Mo’\, brought his Grammy tally to three wins and 14 nominations\, and underscored his undiminished relevance more than 50 years after his solo debut. Blues Hall of Fame membership\, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association\, and other honors punctuate his résumé. Taj appreciates the accolades\, but his motivation lies elsewhere. “I just want to be able to make the music that I’m hearing come to me — and that’s what I did\,” Taj says. “When I say\, ‘I did\,’ I’m not coming from the ego. The music comes from somewhere. You’re just the conduit it comes through. You’re there to receive the gift.”

SUMMARY:POSTPONED - Edda Glass and Max Hatt
DESCRIPTION:Max Hatt / Edda Glass have “an incomparable spook” (Nashville Scene) and “a unique sound” (Larry Groce\, NPR)\, comprised of Glass’s unmistakable voice and Hatt’s lyrical guitar. Originally based in Montana\, their award-winning original music and unique interpretations of American and Brazilian standards have taken them all the way to New York City’s Lincoln Center\, DC’s Kennedy Center\, NPR Mountain Stage\, Sundance Film Fest and Wilco’s Solid Sound Festival. Praised for her “impeccable vocal command” (PopMatters) and compared to a gamut of singers from Astrud Gilberto to Billie Holiday\, Glass’s voice is ultimately “one of a kind…you cannot confuse her with another artist” (New York Theatre Guide). Hatt’s equally distinctive guitar work combines the harmonic innovations of jazz with the melodic resonance of folk\, creating music that’s “subtly poignant\, elegantly funky\, and haunting without trying to be” (Nels Cline\, Wilco). Together\, Max Hatt / Edda Glass evoke a world that stretches from the beaches of Rio de Janeiro to the prairies of the American west\, telling stories of little people on great plains\, and leaving audiences with a feeling both light and deep.

SUMMARY:POSTPONED - Songwriters By The Sea
DESCRIPTION:Distinguished NJ Songwriters Joe Rapolla and Joe D’Urso are back this year hosting the celebrated Songwriters by the Sea series at the Lauren K. Woods Theatre. What once started in a small coffee shop as an area for local songwriters has now grown into a series that features some of the top songwriters in the country. This year\, the show features special guest artists Tom Chapin and Jen Chapin with an intro set by George Wurzbach. The show will also feature Monmouth University student openers. \nIn a career that spans six decades\, 26 albums and three GRAMMY awards\, Hudson Valley Troubadour Tom Chapin has covered an incredible amount of creative ground. In addition to his work as a recording artist and concert performer\, Chapin has acted on Broadway\, as well as working extensively in television\, radio and film. As a music-maker\, the multi-talented singer/songwriter/guitarist has maintained two long and productive parallel careers\, both as a highly respected contemporary folk artist and as a pioneer in the field of children’s music. Chapin has established a reputation for insightful\, heartfelt songcraft and effortlessly charismatic live performances. Chapin’s infectious songs\, sterling musicianship and personal warmth consistently shine through\, whether he’s performing on record or in a concert hall\, an outdoor festival\, a school\, in front of a symphony orchestra or in an intimate coffeehouse. The New York Times called Chapin “one of the great personalities in contemporary folk music.” \nJen Chapin has been celebrated for writing “brilliant soulfully poetic urban folk music” (NPR) for almost two decades\, beginning with her debut\, Open Wide\, in 2002. Nurtured in and around NYC by a large family of artists\, writers\, and musicians\, Jen’s “observant\, lyrically deft\, politically aware and emotionally intuitive” (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel) songwriting features both her “extraordinary voice” (De krenten uit de pop\, The Netherlands) and “astonishing jazz band” (popmatters). As much as an artistic legacy\, the roots of Jen’s upbringing have inspired her “potent\, jazzy\, layered folk” (Newsday) songs and a lifetime of passionate activism\, through ongoing work with WhyHunger (founded by her late father Harry Chapin)\, and teaching high school global history in Brooklyn. She has performed on stage with Bruce Springsteen\, on bills with Aimee Mann\, Bruce Hornsby\, and The Neville Brothers\, and her rendition of Van Morrison’s “Into The Mystic” was featured in an episode of the SyFy TV series “Defiance”. Jen Chapin’s 2013 release Reckoning\, produced and engineered by five-time GRAMMY© Winner Kevin Killen (U2\, Elvis Costello\, Kate Bush) was named among the best Americana albums of that year by Examiner.com and awarded First Prize\, Lyrics category by the USA Songwriting Competition (for the song “Go Away”). Her new trio album “Desert or Sea” was released in summer 2019. \nSponsored by the Leon Hess Business School\nAll proceeds benefit the Music Industry Endowed Scholarship

SUMMARY:42nd Street – The Musical
DESCRIPTION:One of Broadway’s most classic and beloved tales\, 42nd Street\, comes cinema screens in the largest-ever production of the breathtaking musical.  The musical\, set in 1933\, tells the story of Peggy Sawyer\, a talented young performer with stars in her eyes who gets her big break on Broadway. \nPeggy arrives to New York City from her hometown of Allentown\, Pennsylvania and her talent catches the eye of legendary Broadway director Julian Marsh. She gets a spot in the chorus of the musical-within-the-musical\, Pretty Lady. Dorothy Brock\, the classic Broadway diva and star of the show\, takes a dislike to the new girl. When Dorothy is injured\, Pretty Lady looks like it will have to close\, unless a new girl talented enough to lead the show can be found — someone like Peggy Sawyer!) \nFilmed in 2018 at London’s Theatre Royal the production is directed by the original author of the show\, Mark Bramble. This eye-watering extravaganza is full of crowd-pleasing tap dances\, popular musical theatre standards (“Lullaby of Broadway”\, “We’re in the Money (the gold digger’s song)\, “42nd Street” and more)\, and show-stopping ensemble production numbers.

SUMMARY:William Close and the Earth Harp Collective
DESCRIPTION:Concurrently primitive and futuristic\, The Earth Harp incorporates sculpting\, architecture and sound design\, standing at the crossroads of music and art. The Earth Harp was built and developed by William Close\, a New York native and alumni at the Art Institute of Chicago. William performs as part of The Earth Harp Collective – a team of musicians\, dancers\, aerialists and artists. \nWhile studying at the Institute\, Close realized in order to succeed he had to do something that no one else had done. An avid musician who played in garage bands as a teenager\, he started concocting then building his own instruments. His background as a sailor served as inspiration for the use of natural sounds – the wind whipping the sails\, the sound of the rigs flapping and being pulled tight. \n“I’ve always seen and heard the world as an instrument\,” says Close. “Just hearing nature’s tones inspires me.” \nThe body of The Earth Harp rests on the stage\, while the strings travel over the audience\, attaching to the back of the theatre\, concert hall and/or festival ground\, turning every space into an instrument. By using violin rosin covered gloves along the strings\, the Earth Harp’s bowed tones and overlapping ripple effect offers a dramatic cathedral-like sound effect. \nClose’s celebrated Earth Harp earned him a finalist slot on NBC’s America’s Got Talent and was recently named by the World Record Academy as creating and holding the record for the world’s largest stringed instrument. Close has designed at least two permanent Earth Harp installations\, one as part of Cirque du Soleil’s show KA at the MGM Las Vegas\, the other as part of a 1\,300-seat theater aboard the Royal Caribbean International’s newest ship\, Quantum of the Seas. He has brought his Earth Harp to iconic venues like Rome’s Coliseum\, Washington\, DC’s Kennedy Center\, New York’s Lincoln Center\, Seattle’s Space Needle\, Shanghai’s Grand Theater\, Sao Paulo’s Theatro Muncipal\, Qatar’s Dhow Harbour\, as well as major U.S. festivals like Lollapalooza\, Coachella\, Bumbershoot\, Burning Man and Lighting in a Bottle. With an interest in soundtrack work\, Close has also recorded music for Game Of Thrones composer Ramin Djawadi for Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim. \n“I love the idea of these expansive\, grand-scale\, but still user-friendly experiences\,” he says. \nFor Close and his Earth Harp\, the sky is literally no limit

SUMMARY:Pat Metheny Side-Eye w/ James Francies & Marcus Gilmore
DESCRIPTION:Pat Metheny is launching a new playing environment called “Side-Eye” for this upcoming season. \nPat explains “I wanted to create an ongoing setting to feature a rotating cast of new and upcoming musicians who have particularly caught my interest along the way.” \nPat continues “From my earliest days in Kansas City onward\, I was the beneficiary of so many older musicians giving me a platform to develop my thing through the prism of their experience and the particular demands of what their music implied. I have been feeling like I wanted to have a specific platform to focus on some of the many younger musicians I have enjoyed recently who I have felt some kind of a kinship with.” \n“I hear regularly from new players on the scene who have professed an influence from my records and tunes and I often invite them up to my house to play. Very often\, it is really natural and organic to the music to play with them\, they have literally grown up with it. I find myself inspired by how they deal with the musical challenges that come with the territory of some of those older tunes\, and at the same time I find myself intrigued with the possibilities of what might be possible in writing new music just for them. This band setting is what that will be all about.”

SUMMARY:Songwriters by the Sea
DESCRIPTION:Distinguished NJ Songwriters Joe Rapolla and Joe D’Urso are back this year hosting the celebrated Songwriters by the Sea series at the Lauren K. Woods Theatre. What once started in a small coffee shop as an area for local songwriters has now grown into a series that features some of the top songwriters in the country. This year\, the show features special guest artists Jeffrey Gaines and ERYN with an intro set by Mark Geary. The show will also feature Monmouth University student openers: Max Adolf and Kelli Misenheimer. \nThroughout his two-and-a-half-decade recording career\, Jeffrey Gaines has maintained an impressive standard for soul-searching\, introspective lyrics and catchy\, uplifting melodies. Since bursting on the scene with his self-titled 1992 debut album\, the charismatic singer-songwriter-guitarist has built a beloved body of recordings that’s won him a large and deeply devoted international fan base. Now\, after an extended absence from the recording studio\, Gaines returns with Alright\, his first Omnivore Recordings release and his first set of new studio material since 2003’s Toward the Sun.
