Dear Friends,

Spring is my favorite season here in Boulder. Where else can you ski in the morning, garden in the afternoon and enjoy a live performance in the evening? The weather may be unpredictable, but the richness of the arts in our community is consistently outstanding.

As a patron of CU Presents, you are already familiar with the incredible variety of arts experiences on the CU-Boulder campus. This spring we continue our stellar season, including an enchanting production of the opera Hansel and Gretel, a professional theatrical production of Ray Bradbury’s classic Fahrenheit 451, spectacular chamber

From the Executive Director

Warm regards,

Joan McLean Braun

music from the Takács Quartet, as well as dozens of free performances featuring the up-and-coming students and talented faculty of the College of Music and the Department of Theater & Dance.

This spring, we’re also a proud supporter of the inaugural Boulder Arts Week celebration from March 28 to April 6. This citywide event represents the fi rst large-scale, inclusive celebration of our community’s vibrant arts and cultural offerings. Among the exciting offerings will be theater, dance and music performances, art walks, exhibitions, artist demonstrations and much more.

And of course, with its host of rich artistic and cultural offerings, CU-Boulder will be a big part of Boulder Arts Week. The campus will feature exhibits at the CU Art Museum, a jazz showcase from the College of Music, a comic update of Plautus’ classical Roman play, The Rope, and to top it all off, a sizzling concert by the Eddie Palmieri Salsa Orchestra in Macky on Saturday, April 5.

In other words, we think this is going to be a fantastic beginning for a new Boulder tradition. You can learn more at cupresents.org and boulderartsweek.org.

We hope you’ll join us for this ongoing celebration of the arts at CU and in beautiful Boulder this spring.

Be a part of the inaugural

Boulder Arts WeekMarch 28–April 6

This citywide event will highlight Boulder’s distinguished arts and cultural programming and will include art walks, First Friday, exhibitions, performances,

dance, music, theater, artist demonstrations, lectures, and symposia.

Before the Overture This highly-acclaimed musical revue is a celebration of America’s greatest living composer!

Music byStephen Joshua Sondheim (born March 22, 1930) is an American composer and lyricist known for his immense contributions to musical theatre for over 50 years. He is the winner of an

composer and lyricist) A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, Sunday in the Park with George and Into the Woods. He also wrote the lyrics for West Side Story and Gypsy.

Sondheim has written material for movies, including the 1981 Warren Beatty film Reds, for which he contributed the song “Goodbye For Now”. He also wrote five songs for the 1990 movie Dick Tracy, including “Sooner or Later (I Always Get My Man)” which won the Academy Award for Best Song.

He was president of the Dramatists Guild from 1973 to 1981. In celebration of his 80th birthday, the former Henry Miller’s Theatre was renamed the Stephen Sondheim Theatre on September 15, 2010, and the BBC Proms staged a concert in his honor. Cameron Mackintosh has described Sondheim as “possibly the greatest lyricist ever.”

—from Wikipedia

Academy Award, eight Tony Awards (more than any other composer) including the Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre, eight Grammy Awards, a Pulitzer Prize and the Laurence Olivier Award. Described by Frank Rich of the New York Times as “now the greatest and perhaps best-known artist in the American musical theater,” his most famous works include (as

SynopsisSide By Side By Sondheim is a dazzling collection of songs by Broadway’s musical master, Stephen Sondheim.

Pacific Overtures. This exciting production also features the classics he wrote with musical theater giants Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne and Richard Rodgers - West Side Story, Gypsy and Do I Hear a Waltz? You’ll be treated to these and more in this musical feast!

From the Stage Director Leigh Holman

When I was in graduate school at Eastman, I had the opportunity to take a semester-long class in the music of Stephen Sondheim. It was then that I was turned on to the absolute depth, breadth and brilliance of his music and lyrics. For a long while, he had been the mysterious genius to me. Who was this person that created Follies, Company and collaborated with Broadway greats such as Leonard Bernstein and Jule Styne?

His personal and artistic life is much more accessible to Sondheim fanatics now, but in our modern age, the 84-year old-is possibly best known for Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd, Assassins and Saturday in the Park with George. In this production, we take the opportunity to reach back to the year 1976 and the previous years in Sondheim’s creative life.

From the Music Director Joshua Horsch

Set in his New York apartment in the mid 1970’s, we’ve turned this retrospective of Sondheim’s early compositions and lyric writing into an additional opportunity for our student performers to learn more about the man and his friends. Each of Sondheim’s “friends” take on aspects of some of music history’s most important mid-20th century Broadway heavy-hitters.

You are also one of the guests at Stevie’s apartment, too, so make a Harvey Wallbanger, pull on your bellbottoms and join us for a night on the couch side by side by Sondheim.

In 1986, the London theater critic Michael Billington saluted Stephen Sondheim as “the greatest living American composer after Copland.” This extraordinary praise will be strongly supported by the diverse and beautiful music featured in Side By Side By Sondheim. Featuring work from roughly the first half of Sondheim’s career, Side By Side contains a mixture of well known favorites, more obscure pieces, and songs that didn’t make the final cut for Sondheim’s Broadway shows.

Sondheim’s musical influences are quite diverse and range from Rachmaninoff to Ravel. A lesser known, but estraordinarily important, influence on Sondheim’s development was his studies in New York with composer Milton Babbit. Although Babbit may have seemed to be an odd choice as a teacher for Sondheim, his teaching had a lasting influence on Sondheim’s control of musical form and the structural foundations of theater composition.

In this production, Sondheim’s compositional mastery will be on full display. From the frenetic energy of Another Hundred People to the beautiful simplicity of Anyone Can Whistle, Sondheim’s music will take us on a journey through the various aspects of the human experience. Thank you for coming and enjoy the show.

JOYFUL NOTES!
