At UMS, we believe it can. In our 136th season, we continue to showcase traditional performances alongside contemporary artists for an offering that is unlike anything available in the Midwest. UMS grew from a group of local members of the University and townspeople in the 1870s who gathered together for the study of HandelÃs Messiah. Led by Professor Henry Simmons Frieze and conducted by Professor Calvin Cady, the group assumed the name The Choral Union. Many Choral Union members were also affiliated with the University, and the University Musical Society was established soon after in December 1880.
Since that first season, UMS has expanded greatly and we now present the very best from a wide spectrum of the performing arts: internationally renowned recitalists and orchestras, dance and chamber ensembles, jazz and global music performers, and contemporary stagework and classical theater. Through educational programming, the commissioning of new works, youth programs, artist residencies, and collaborative projects, we continue to strengthen our reputation for artistic distinction and innovation.

PLEASE C ONSIDER THE F OLL O WING:
Turn off cell phones and electronic devices. We all know how terrible it is when a phone rings during a performance. It breaks that special bond between a performer and the audience. Illuminated screens on phones are also a visual distraction in a darkened theater.
Our volunteer ushers are invaluable. They will show you to your seat, give you a program, help solve any problems, answer questions, and welcome you to the experience. Please do not hesitate to ask them for help.
Wear what you want to the performance à this is Ann Arbor, after all! If you feel inspired to dress in some way related to the show, go for it. Express your own creativity.
Unwrapping candies and cough drops before the performance begins cuts down on disruptive noise while the performance is in progress.
Think about whether it is necessary to wear your favorite perfume to the performance. Chances are that the folks sitting around you may appreciate an unscented experience.
The Good News: most of our performance spaces have world-class acoustics. The Bad News: that means that when you cough or sneeze you make an especially clear statement to fellow audience members and performers alike. Feel free to ask an usher for cough drops when you arrive at a UMS Choral Union Series event and please consider bringing cough drops with you to our other events. ItÃs noisy even if you cover your mouth!
Thankfully, we manage to keep last-minute changes to a minimum, but please remember that all artists and programs are subject to change at a momentÃs notice.
Programs with larger print are available. Ask an usher.
We make every effort to begin performances on time. The actual start time of a performance always reflects a combination of considerations. Late seating is not guaranteed. If you arrive after a performance has begun, we will seat you if there is an appropriate late seating break in the program. We work together with the artists to determine late seating breaks that will not disrupt their performance or the experience of the audience.

NOW THAT YOUÃRE IN YOUR SEATÃ
The sonatas of Franck and Ravel à two of the most beloved works in the French violin repertory à are a study in contrasts. They were written 40 years apart, so if you were born in Paris in the 1860s, you might conceivably have attended both world premieres, in 1886 and 1927, respectively. However, a lot had happened in those four decades (a world war, among other things), and the Romantic passion of Franck is light-years away from RavelÃs blues.
In general, Ravel was no great fan of FranckÃs. Perhaps the only thing they would have agreed on was the universality of Johann Sebastian Bach. Therefore it is fitting for the recital to open with a sonata by Bach à not that an excuse is necessary.
Sonata for Violin and Keyboard in G Major, BWV 1019 (ca. 1725)
J. S. Bach Born March 21, 1685 in Eisenach, Germany Died July 28, 1750 in Leipzig
UMS premiere: This sonata has never been performed on UMS recital.

Second performance of J.S. BachÃs St. John Passion, BWV 245 at St. Thomas Church, Leipzig
BachÃs six sona tas for violin and harpsichord (BWV 1014Ã1019) are the earliest duo sonatas in the true sense of the word, where both instruments are fully equal in importance. We donÃt know exactly when they were composed; the earliest manuscript source we have dates from around 1725, two years after Bach moved to Leipzig. It is possible, however, that the sonatas go back to the KÂthen period (1717Ã1723).
The first five sonatas in the set were all in four movements, but Bach wanted to try something different in the last piece, challenging himself with a problem that took him some time to resolve to his own satisfaction. The sonata exists in no fewer than three different versions that differ significantly from one another: Bach deleted or replaced entire movements in the course of a revision process over a period of several years (the definitive version may not have been completed until some time in the 1740s). The first version had as many as six movements, two of them in dance rhythms à effectively combining the sonata with the suite. Later Bach deleted the dance movements and devised a symmetrical five-movement form, but the last movement was identical to the first. Finally, he wrote two brand-new movements for the definitive version (movements 3 and 5), one of which à the central ÃAllegroà à is, most surprisingly, scored for harpsichord alone.
The five movements of the sonata are arranged in a fast-slow-fast-slow.fast pattern. The opening ÃAllegroà is a perpetual motion where all three voices (violin, keyboard right hand, and left hand) are exceptionally agile in the manner of a three-part Ãsuper-invention.à A brief ÃLargoà in a characteristic dotted rhythm leads directly into the keyboard solo, whose structural outline comes very close to a classical sonata form. After an ÃAdagioà à another three-part invention with a lavishly embellished melodic line
à the piece concludes with a playful romp that combines fugal structure with A-B-A form. In short, this is an exceptional work by any standard, in which Bach displayed all his compositional virtuosity.
In 1774, C.P.E. Bach sent his copy of the sonatas to Johann Nikolaus Forkel, who was working on the first biography of Johann
ITZHAK PERLMAN
Sebastian at the time. The package was accompanied by these remarkable words:
[They] are among the best works of my dear departed father. They still sound excellent and give me much joy, though they date back more than 50 years. They contain some Adagii that could not be written in a more singable manner today. Since they are badly worn, you will be so kind as to use them with great care.
Sonata for Violin and Piano in A Major (1886)
CÂsar Franck Born December 10, 1822 in Liege, Belgium Died November 8, 1890 in Paris
UMS premiere: Fritz Kreisler, January 1922 in Hill Auditorium

For many years, CÂsar Franck worked as an organist at Sainte-Clotilde, which was not one of ParisÃs most prestigious churches. His father had destined him for the career of a traveling piano virtuoso  la Franz Liszt. These dreams, however, did not come true, and Franck had to settle for a less than glamorous existence. His first major break did not come until he was 50; in 1872, he was appointed to the Paris Conservatoire as a professor of organ. But even that did not necessarily mean success as a composer. His large-scale oratorios and other sacred works failed to make an impression. It was only during the last decade of his life that he wrote the series of masterpieces (including the Violin Sonata, the Symphony, and the String Quartet) for which he is remembered to this day.
The Violin Sonata was written in 1886, as a wedding present for the great violinist EugÂne YsaÃe (1858Ã1931), like Franck a native of Liege, Belgium. The first public performance was given by YsaÃe and pianist LÂontine Bordes-PÂne in Brussels on December 16, 1886, at a concert devoted to FranckÃs works. The Sonata had an enormous success. The director of the Brussels Conservatoire congratulated the composer with the words: ÃYou have transformed chamber music: thanks to you a new vision of the future has been revealed to our eyes.Ã
The director was not exaggerating. FranckÃs only contribution to the solo violin literature was also a unique achievement in that it introduced into chamber music certain techniques never previously used in that medium. Inspired by LisztÃs symphonic poems, Franck linked the four movements of the Sonata together by a network of thematic recurrences. The characters of the themes are sometimes fundamentally transformed in this process. Franck also used counterpoint more extensively than most Romantic composers à in part because, as an organ player, he was deeply immersed in the music of J.S. Bach. Moreover, Franck had been touched by the style of Richard Wagner, who had died in 1883 but was still the most controversial modern composer in Europe. In the Violin Sonata, Franck repeatedly used a variant of the famous ÃTristanà chord. He combined all these influences, however, with a boundless melodic invention all his own.
T h e S o n a t a h a s a n u n u s u a l movement sequence. In most sonatas, the longest and weightiest movement comes at the beginning. In the Franck Sonata, this movement stands in second place, preceded by a dreamy ÃAllegretto ben moderate.à The passionate second movement is in the key of d minor that was often used to depict tempestuous emotions. The third movement is a ÃRecitativo-Fantasiaà that, in what was an extraordinary move in 1886, entirely dispenses with the idea of a main tonal center. The key changes constantly as the violin plays two unaccompanied cadenzas, separated by a nostalgic recollection of the first movementÃs opening melody on the piano. The movement continues with an Ãariaà for violin that is in turn lyrical and dramatic, with a molto lento e mesto (very slow and sad) ending. Finally, the fourth movement crowns the Sonata with a, real tour de force: its initial melody is played by the two instruments in canon à that is, the melodic lines are the same, with the violin starting one measure after the piano. The remaining themes come from the third movement, turning the Ãariaà into a major dramatic outburst. A recapitulation of the canon theme and a short, exuberant coda ends this great sonata.

It is not universally known that Ravel wrote not one but two violin sonatas. An early sonata in one movement, from RavelÃs student days, was long forgotten and published for the first time in 1975, the centenary year of the composerÃs birth. Yet although this work has now been available for a quarter of a century, most everyone still refers to the familiar masterpiece from 1927 as Ãtheà Ravel sonata for violin and piano.
Incidentally, these two works mark the beginning and the end, respectively, of RavelÃs chamber-music output. They were also played for the first time by the same violinist, Georges Enescu à in 1897 a 16-year-old prodigy and RavelÃs fellow student at the Paris Conservatoire, and in 1927 a celebrated violinist and composer dividing his time between his native Romania and the French capital.
EnescuÃs most famous violin student, Yehudi Menuhin, was present as a boy of 11 when Ravel first showed Enescu his new sonata in 1927. As Menuhin later recalled in his autobiography Unfinished Journey, he was having a lesson with his teacher when,
Maurice Ravel suddenly burst into our midst, the ink still drying on a piano.and-violin sonata which he had brought along.Ã Enescu, chivalrous man as he was, craved my indulgence...then, with Ravel at the piano, sight-read the complex work, pausing now and then for elucidation. Ravel would have let matters rest there, but Enescu suggested that they have one more run-through, whereupon he laid the manuscript aside and played the entire work from memory.
The sonata became universally famous (and, in some quarters, infamous) for its central movement, ÃBlues.à Certainly no one had ever included a blues in a violin sonata before, and Ravel didnÃt endear himself to conservative critics by this move. Yet he had been fascinated by jazz and blues for the better part of a decade and, unlike the conservative critics, he did not think that American vernacular music was incompatible with the European classical tradition. A few years before the sonata, he had composed the opera LÃenfant et les sortilÂges (The Child and the Enchantments), in which the teapot sang a ragtime and the china cup a foxtrot. In the ÃBluesà movement of the sonata, Ravel gave a perfect rendition of the typical melodic and harmonic turns of the blues, while at the same time remaining French through and through à a real stylistic miracle.
But the jazz influence is by no means restricted to this movement. The opening ÃAllegretto,Ã which opens a graceful melody played by the pianoÃs right hand, without accompaniment, contains a second motif, in which a single note is repeated in a striking rhythmic pattern. One commentator described this as Ãa mischievously percussive little figure from the same ragtime background as
ARTISTS
DebussyÃs Minstrels.Ã The development of these two distinct musical ideas is kept fairly simple throughout. Towards the end of the movement a soaring violin melody is superimposed on the materials heard previously, to help return the music to the idyllic state of the beginning.
On the other side of the ÃBluesà movement is a finale in perpetual motion that brings back some motifs from earlier movements such as the ragtime-like figure from the ÃAllegrettoà and one of the characteristic licks from the ÃBlues.à The uninterrupted 16th-notes of the violin start in a restricted melodic range, but they soon expand to include wider and wider arpeggios and higher and higher positions on the instrument. The energy constantly increases all the way to the end.

Beloved for his charm and humanity as well as his talent, he is treasured by audiences throughout the world who respond not only to his remarkable artistry, but also to his irrepressible joy for making music.
Born in Israel in 1945, Mr. Perlman was propelled to national recognition with an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1958. He won the prestigious Leventritt Competition in 1964, which led to a burgeoning worldwide career. Since then, Itzhak Perlman has appeared as violin soloist with every major orchestra and in recitals and festivals around the world.
Mr. Perlman has further delighted a udiences thro ugh his frequen t appearances on the conductorÃs podium. He has performed as conductor with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, Boston Symphony, National Symphony, San Francisco Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, and the sym phony orchestras of St. Louis, Detroit, Dallas, Houston, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Montreal, and Toronto, as well as at the Ravinia and Tanglewood festivals. Internationally, Mr. Perlman has conducted the Berlin Philharmonic, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, London Philharmonic, English Chamber Orchestra, and the Israel Philharmonic.
The current season takes Mr. Perlman to both new and familiar major centers around the world. This fall, he performs opening-gala concerts with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Gustavo
ITZHAK PERLMAN
Dudamel in a tribute to John Williams, with the National Arts Centre Orchestra of Ottawa and Pinchas Zukerman, and with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and Jaap van Zweden. Mr. Perlman continues to celebrate the rich tradition of Jewish and klezmer music this season with a 20th-anniversary return of his popular In the FiddlerÃs House program in a much-anticipated appearance at Carnegie Hall in March 2015.
Further to his engagements as violinist and conductor, Mr. Perlman is increasingly making more speaking appearances. Recent and upcoming e n g a g e m e n t s i n c l u d i n g t h e S a l k Institute in San Diego on the centennial anniversary of Dr. SalkÃs birth, Orlando at Rollins College, Greensboro at Guilford College, Palm Beach at the Society of the Four Arts, and Chicago with the Jewish United Fund.
In 2003, the John F. Kennedy C e n t e r f o r t h e P e r f o r m i n g A r t s granted Mr. Perlman a Kennedy Center Honor celebrating his distinguished achievements and contributions to the cultural and educational life of the US. He has performed multiple times at the White House, most recently in 2012 for Israeli President and Presidential Medal of Freedom honoree Shimon Peres; and at a State Dinner in 2007 for Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh. Mr. Perlman was honored to take part in the Inauguration of President Obama in 2009, premiering a piece written for the occasion by John Williams alongside cellist Yo-Yo Ma, clarinetist Anthony McGill, and pianist Gabriela Montero.
He proudly possesses four Emmy Awards and 15 Grammy Awards. He performed at the 2006 Academy Awards and at The Juilliard School Centennial gala, broadcast nationally on Live from Lincoln Center. One of Mr. PerlmanÃs proudest achievements is his collaboration with film score composer John Williams in Steven SpielbergÃs Academy Award-winning film SchindlerÃs List, in which he performed the violin solos.
Mr. Perlman devotes considerable time to education, both in his participation each summer in the Perlman Music Program and his teaching at the Juilliard School, where he holds the Dorothy Richard Starling Foundation Chair. He was awarded an honorary doctorate and a centennial medal on the occasion of JuilliardÃs 100th commencement ceremony in 2005.

The String Quartet in f minor, Op. 95 (or ÃQuartetto serioso,à as Beethoven himself called it) was written at the end of BeethovenÃs extremely prolific Ãsecond period.à It was his last string quartet before the magnificent set of late quartets written in the last years of his life. It sums up, in extremely concise form, most of the qualities of the Ãheroicà second period: robust force, melodic poignancy, formal concentration, abrupt interruptions, bold key changes, and an irresistible rhythmic drive.
All four movements of the Quartet in f minor are built of melodic gestures of an astonishing simplicity à one might almost call it bluntness. The unison figure that opens the piece à repeated, in typical Beethovenian fashion, a half-step higher à is only one of many examples. That dramatic gesture sets the stage for a first movement of uncommon emotional intensity. The second movement is in D Major, a key very distant from the original f minor à Beethoven never chose a more remote key relationship between movements than he did here. Starting with a mysterious, unaccompanied scale, the movement continues with a lyrical melody followed by a fugue, and has an open ending leading directly into the scherzo. The latter is based on a single motif consisting of a scale, heard both in descending and ascending form. The slow movementÃs D Major is revisited in the quiet and expressive Trio, which moves in equal long notes with accompanying flourishes in the first violin. The finale proceeds from an introductory ÃLarghetto espressivoà through a passionate ÃAllegretto agitatoà to the extremely fast coda, in which the tonality suddenly changes from f minor to F Major and the Ãseriosoà character gives way to cheerfulness, even humor, for the few remaining moments. (The sequence of events in this last movement runs remarkably parallel to BeethovenÃs "Egmont" Overture, written in the same year 1810, and also consisting of a slow introduction and passionate "Allegro" in f minor, followed by an exultant coda in F Major.)

String Quartet No. 5, Op. 126 (2014)
Lowell Liebermann Born February 22, 1961 in New York City
World Premiere
String Quartet No. 5, Op. 126 was commissioned by Music Accord for the Emerson String Quartet, to whom the work is dedicated. It is such an honor (and not an unintimidating one!) to write for an ensemble that has been, through their many recordings, such an iconic presence in my own musical development.
This Quartet, like much of my instrumental music, has no extra-musical program à it is as absolute and abstract as music can be à yet, at the same time, I have no doubt that my mindset while composing the piece and its resultant overriding elegiac tone was at least partly influenced by any number of depressing/ terrifying events of the kind with which we are all bombarded daily, in what seems more and more like a world gone mad.
The workÃs mysterious opening, marked Limpido (still), introduces a number of motives which are heard and developed throughout the Quartet. Structurally, the Quartet is in one arc-like symmetrical movement consisting of two mostly slow sections flanking a fast section whose structure is, in and of itself, symmetrical. If we think of that central fast section as being akin to a scherzo and trio, then the reprise of the scherzo section is actually an intervallic inversion of its first statement, while the trio section divides at its midpoint, the second half being a mirror image of the first half.

ShostakovichÃs Third Quartet was written in 1946, one year after the end of World War II. It begins with a humorous, almost flippant melody that sets the tone for a light-hearted movement full of wit and charm, although not devoid of a few slightly harsher accents, especially in the strongly contrapuntal development section. The real clouds donÃt start gathering until the second movement. The simple broken triads of the viola, in unchanging quarter-notes, sound rather menacing from the outset, as the accompaniment to a chromatic theme in the first violin. By the time all four instruments have entered, the mood is one of intense nervousness, manifested by the second theme that grows out of a palpitating staccato motif, played extremely softly by the entire group.
The third movement is one of ShostakovichÃs Ãbrutalà scherzos; its melodic material unfolds over a set of Ãangryà rhythmic ostinatos (repeated figures). A more playful second theme, introduced by the viola, functions as the trio (middle section). The recapitulation is intensified by added contrapuntal imitation and harmonies that are even more astringent that they were the first time.
The fourth movement is a deeply tragic ÃAdagio,Ã written in the form of a passacaglia (variations upon an unchanging bass theme). Its pathos-filled melody is first presented in a powerful unison by second violin, viola, and cello; it is later repeated by the first violin, softly, like a lament. With the final repeat of the theme, played by the viola with only the sparsest of accompaniments in the cello, we reach the lowest depths of despair.
The finale is the longest and most complex movement of the quartet. It opens with an enigmatic cello melody punctuated by the pizzicato (plucked) notes of the viola. This theme à gently lilting but filled with chromatic tension
à is developed at length, joined by a beautifully singing second melody and a humorous third one, which recalls the first movement. Yet at the climactic point the tragic lament melody of the fourth movement returns with devastating power. After this outburst, the humorous theme reappears, but in the minor mode instead of major, losing much of its cheerfulness. And the lilting first theme ends up as a solitary adagio melody for first violin, reaching the instrumentÃs highest register in a subdued pianissimo as the other instruments play a single F Major chord held for a full 26 measures.
In the Third Quartet, Shostakovich managed to reverse completely the traditional Ãdarkness-to-lightà sequence so often found in classical music. Moving from a cheerful opening to four movements of increasing seriousness and drama, the work strongly suggests that for Shostakovich in 1946, happiness was a very fragile emotion. Even though the war was over, the memory of past suffering was not about to go away easily, and laughter could turn into tears at any moment.

ARTISTS
T
he EMERSON STRING QUARTET has an unparalleled list of achievements over three decades: more than 30 acclaimed recordings, nine Grammys (including two for ÃBest Classical AlbumÃ), three Gramophone Awards, the Avery Fisher Prize, Musical AmericaÃs ÃEnsemble of the Yearà and collaborations with many of the greatest artists of our time.
The arrival of Paul Watkins in 2013 has had a profound effect on the Emerson Quartet. Mr. Watkins, a distinguished soloist, award-winning conductor, and devoted chamber musician, joined the ensemble in its 37th season, and his dedication and enthusiasm have infused the Quartet with a warm, rich tone and a palpable joy in the collaborative process. The reconfigured group has been greeted with impressive critical and public accolades.
The QuartetÃs summer 2014 season began with engagements in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and a pair of concerts in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Following a tour of Japan, the Quartet performed at the Ravinia, Tanglewood, Chamber Music Northwest, Aspen, Domaine Forget, Toronto, Austin, Norfolk, Cape Cod, and Mostly Mozart festivals. In a season of over 80 quartet performances, mingled with the Quartet membersà individual artistic commitments, Emerson highlights feature numerous concerts on both coasts and throughout North America. In October, Paul Watkins performs with the Emerson Quartet for the first time in Carnegie Hall. The program includes the Schumann Piano Quintet with acclaimed pianist and colleague Yefim Bronfman. Multiple tours of Europe comprise dates in Austria, Ireland, Switzerland, France, Germany, and the UK. The Quartet continues its series at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC for its 35th season, and, in May, is presented by colleagues David Finckel and Wu Han for the two final season concerts at Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in Alice Tully Hall. Guest artists Colin Carr and Paul Neubauer join the Emerson in a program that also includes the New York premiere of Lowell LiebermannÃs String Quartet No. 5, commissioned by a consortium of presenters, including UMS, through Music Accord.
As an exclusive artist for Sony Classical, the Emerson recently released Journeys, its second CD on that label, featuring TchaikovskyÃs Souvenir de Florence and SchoenbergÃs Verklaerte Nacht. Future recordings are planned with Mr. Watkins.
Formed in 1976 and based in New York City, the Emerson was one of the first quartets formed with two violinists alternating in the first chair position. In 2002, the Quartet began to stand for most of its concerts, with the cellist seated on a riser.
The Emerson Quartet took its name from the American poet and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson and is Quartet.in-Residence at Stony Brook University. In January of 2015, the Quartet will receive the Richard J. Bogomolny National Service Award, Chamber Music AmericaÃs highest honor, in recognition of its significant and lasting contribution to the chamber music field.

KISS AND CRY
DIRECTOR'S NOTE
A
bout 10 years ago, after a week of improvisation and filming hands dancing on a table, the form and language of Kiss & Cry came to life. We created a short scene for a cabaret evening. From this starting point came the idea to develop the piece into a full-length performance that would combine our two worlds: dance and cinema.
Ten y ears la ter w e star ted improvising once again, working with friends from dance and movies, creating a collective experience to which everyone contributed their own special skills. There were three, four, five of us à then more.
The challenge was: is it possible to make a feature film on the kitchen table? And is it possible to create a dance performance with just a couple of hands? In the beginning we worked on the table, using anything we could find in the house: our childrenÃs toys, dollsà houses, tiny plastic figurines, sand, earth, water, milk, our tortoise, cotton wool, cardboard boxes, sticky tape, and two bare hands. With these miscellaneous items we came up with a series of short, unrelated scenes. We carried on experimenting, ending up with a stage littered with tracks, cables, pulleys and projectors, just like a miniature film studio. The camera shows on the screen what is too small to be seen by the human eye and, conversely, the eye sees what the camera cannot see, the hors-champ à that is, what is off-camera or out of range.
Hands became the storyÃs main protagonists, and the story à written by Jaco Van Dormael and novelist Thomas Gunzig à alongside the ongoing improvisation work, gradually became the bittersweet tale of GisÂle and her five lovers (like the five fingers of a human hand), a story of love, loss, disappearance, regret, and recovery.
Depending on where we play, the interpretation and resonance is very different. In Santiago de Chile, Beirut, and Seoul itÃs been seen almost as a political piece, referring to the victims of war and totalitarian regimes in which people have vanished without trace. In other places the audience is simply touched by the notions of true love, loneliness, and regret. Kiss & Cry tells a story, and at the same time reveals the mechanics of how the story is brought to life. Strangely, the more we show that all is fake, the more the spectator believes and the deeper the emotion.

ICHéLE ANNE DE MEY
(Brussels, 1959) is a Belgian
choreographer who studied at Mudra, the school founded by Maurice BÂjart in Brussels, from 1976Ã1979. She took contemporary dance in a new direction with her early choreographies: Pass Simple (1981) and the duets Ballatum (1984), and Face  Face (1986). At the same time, she worked with Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker for six years on the creation and interpretation of several of her choreographies, namely Fase (1982), Rosas danst Rosas (1983), ElenaÃs Aria (1984), and Ottone, ottone (1988).
Although special consideration is always given to the relationship between dance and music, the choreographic structure of MichÂle Anne De MeyÃs creations cultivates a strong theatrical content and places the dancer in a specific and innovative relationship between the stage and the audience. In 1990, she founded her own company and created Sinfonia Eroica. Fifteen more creations followed which met with international acclaim, among them Raining Dogs (2002), Utopie (2001), Katamenia (1997), Pulcinella (1994), Love Sonnets (1994), ChÂteaux en Espagne (1991), and Cahier (1995). Her teaching contributions have also been significant (in Amsterdam, at INSAS in Brussels, CNDC in Angers, and Âcole en Couleurs).
For three years, she worked with the children at Âcole en Couleurs on the elaboration of Sacre en Couleurs, a creation presented on the occasion of Br ux elles/Br ussel 2000. Her choreographic work has been the starting point for several films, such as Love Sonnets and 21 Âtudes  danser by Thierry de Mey and Face  Face by Eric Pauwels. Using the power of music to create her choreographic universe, she has worked with renowned composers Thierry de Mey, Robert Wyatt, and Jonathan Harvey. For several years, she has been working in close collaboration with artists including Simon Siegmann, StÂphane Olivier, and GrÂgory Grosjean.
In June 2006 she recreated one of her seminal pieces from the 1990s à Sinfonia Eroica à for nine dancers. This has gone on to be performed more than 100 times across the world. In December 2007 she created P.L.U.G, a show all about the mechanics of mating. MichÂle Anne presented Koma, a solo for a female dancer, during the Made in Korea Festival staged by BOZAR in June 2009. This solo is one of a series of four, with the other three by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Arco Renz, and Thomas Hauert. Neige opened the Charleroi Danses Biennale in November 2009 before going on tour. For the VIA festival in March 2011, she worked with Jaco Van Dormael and in a group comprising Gregory Grosjean, Thomas Gunzig, Julien Lambert, Nicolas Olivier, and Sylvie Oliv on Kiss & Cry, a highly original and ambitious show confronting film, dance, words, theater, and brilliant DIY. She presented her latest work Lamento in May 2012, a solo created for and performed by the dancer Gabriella Iacono based on MonteverdiÃs Lamento dÃArianna.

He has written and directed several fictional short films and documentaries à Maedeli-La-Breche (1980), Stade (1981), LÃimitateur (1982), Sortie de secours (1983), E pericoloso sporgersi (1984), and De Boot (1985) à before going on to write and direct three feature-length films: Toto the Hero (1991) with Michel Bouquet, which won a CamÂra dÃor award at the Cannes Film Festival; The Eighth Day with Pascal Duquenne and Daniel Auteuil (1996), which won the ÃBest Actorà prize (ex aequo) at Cannes; and Mr. Nobody (2009) with Jared Leto, Sarah Polley, Diane Kruger, and Lin Dan Pham, which won a prize at the Venice Film Festival and three prizes at the Magrittes awards ceremony (ÃBest Film,à ÃBest Director,à and ÃBest Original ScreenplayÃ), as well as the Audience Prize at the European Film Awards.
Jaco Van Dormael has also directed for theater, including Est-ce quÃon ne pourrait pas sÃaimer un peu? with Eric De Staerke. In 2012 he directed his first opera, Stradella by CÂsar Franck, to mark the reopening of the OpÂra Royal de Wallonie in LiÂge. In the dreamy atmosphere of his productions, Jaco Van Dormael explores the power of the imagination and the contribution of childhood. In under 30 years he has developed a poetic and ambitious world of his own with non.linear narrative forms. He lives with the choreographer MichÂle Anne De Mey and has two daughters, Alice and Juliette. His brother Pierre Van Dormael (1952Ã2008) was a composer and jazz guitarist.
After studying at the Conservatoire National SupÂrieur de Paris, GRÂGORY GR O SJEAN ( co-choreogr a ph y, NanoDanses) pursued a career in classical dance with various companies in Spain, Belgium, Scotland, and Japan. In 2001, he joined MichÂle Anne De Mey, working with her on six new works as a dancer and artistic adviser. These include Utopie, Raining Dogs, and 12 easy waltzes in a duet with MichÂle Anne and, most recently, the collective creation Kiss & Cry.
SYLVIE OLIVÂ (set designer) is a set creator for film and stage. Her career began in theater as assistant to the stage designer Dominique Pichou in 1987, before moving to film in 1990 with sets for Christian VincentÃs film La discrÂte. She recently designed the sets for RÂgis RoinsartÃs first film, Populaire, earning herself a CÂsar nomination in 2013. She won the award for the best set design at the 66th Venice Film Festival in 2009 for Jaco Van DormaelÃs most recent film, Mr Nobody.
She has also worked as a set designer on the collective creation Kiss & Cry. Most recently, she created the sets for Guillaume de GallienneÃs film Les GarÂons et Guillaume  table. Sylvie Oliv created the set for Neige by the choreographer MichÂle Anne De Mey and for the ballet Le Corsaire by Kader Belarb, as well as for the play La Fausse Suivante directed by Lambert Wilson.
Her career has taken her to New York, Montreal, Berlin, and Brussels. Alongside her established work, she has also been heavily involved in working in contemporary dance and experimental performing arts.
After studying painting at the 75 in the early 1990s, NICOLAS OLIVIER (lighting design) trained in set design and stage direction at INFAC. Meeting the stage director Daniel Scahaise in 1993 marked a crucial turning point in his career, with Mr. Scahaise steering him towards lighting. Between 1993 and 1999 he gained experience as a lighting operator, honing his skills. Notable collaborations include Pascale
KISS AND CRY
Vyvere, Pierre Aucaigne (Momo), Toots Thielemans, and Stephane Steeman.
From 1999Ã2013, he was initially the lighting designer and then the stage manager at Charleroi Danses. During this period, he worked closely with FrÂdÂric Flamand, Wim Vandekeybus, Mossoux-BontÂ, MichÂle Anne De Mey, and Jaco Van Dormael on shows including Kiss & Cry and Neige.
Now freelance, he is part of the Groupe Entorse which creates hybrid pieces, dances, music, and lighting. Notable lighting designs include CÂsar FranckÃs opera Stradella staged by Jaco Van Dormael for the reopening of the OpÂra Royal de Wallonie.
In theater he has collaborated on David StrosbergÃs Lettre  Cassandre and on Les 1001 nuits directed by Dominique Serron. In another genre entirely, his stage design and lighting are to be used on tour by LiÂge-based rock group My Little Cheap Dictaphone.
Nicolas OlivierÃs lighting designs are more like architectural constructions than set designs in the strict sense. He continually demonstrates his interest in the encounter between bodies, dance, voice, video, architecture, and various performing arts disciplines.
THOMAS GUNZIG (texts, script) was born in Brussels in 1970 and graduated with a degree in political science (international relations). He embarked on his writing career with a collection of short stories entitled Situation instable penchant vers le mois dÃaoÂt which won the City of Brussels student writerÃs prize in 1994. This was the first of many publications and literary awards. His writing has since diversified, from short stories to a novel (Mort dÃun parfait bilingue, Rossel Prize 2001) and from radio fiction to a book for young people (Nom de code: Superpouvoir, 2005), by way of musical theater (Belle  mourir, staged at Le Public in 1999). He also worked with Jaco Van Dormael, Harry Clevens, and ComÂs on a film adaptation of the comic strip Silence in 2006. His works have been adapted for the stage in France and Belgium.
In 2008, he trod the boards himself for the first time in his own play, Les Origines de la vie, which he directed with Isabelle Wery. His Spiderman has also been adapted for the screen by Christophe Peri in a Jan Kounen production. His books have been translated into several languages, including German, Russian, Italian, and Czech.
Mr. Gunzig regularly runs writing workshops and gives lectures in Belgium and abroad. He also teaches classes on literature at the Ecole Nationale SupÂrieure des Arts Visuels (La Cambre) and on storytelling at the Institut SupÂrieur Saint-Luc in Brussels. He puts a great deal of effort into supporting writers within SCAM (the Civil Society of Multimedia Authors) and was elected its vice president in 2007.
Thomas Gunzig has also become something of a media personality: he is a columnist for various newspapers and magazines, his voice has been heard for five years on RTBFÃs radio waves in Jeu des Dictionnaires, and now, on Matin PremiÂre, he paints a picture of the dayÃs guest in his Caf SerrÂ.
JULIEN LAMBERT (camera) was born in 1983 in Normandy, a place that has definitely shaped his particular taste for landscapes with changing light. It is also steeped in a modern history which has left a lasting mark. The humane approach he takes to his work is associated as much with the way he collaborates with and learns from his colleagues as it is with the kind of commitment demanded by the work of a cameraman. Specializing early on in images, Mr. Lambert learned his craft at INSAS in Brussels, a place where he encountered his peers working in different art forms: fictional and documentary film, dance, the performing arts, and music. Like any good craftsman, he refined his tools by taking them apart; for him nothing could be more natural than understanding a camera down to its tiniest detail. However, for Julien, the basic essentials are elsewhere: they can be found in the journey you take getting there.
A
n o f f -s h o o t o f t h e f o r m e r Ballet Royal de Wallonie, the CHOREOGRAPHIC CENTRE OF THE WALL ONIA-BR U SSELS FEDERATION has taken a radical turn towards contemporary creation.
FrÂdÂric Flamand, its director from 1991Ã2004, made it a leading institution on an international scale. It has been run by Vincent Thirion, General Manager and Artistic Director, since 2006. The Centre has three associate artists: MichÂle Anne De Mey, Thierry De Mey, and Pierre Droulers. This new management formed the framework for an open project à a broad association of artists with an interdisciplinary dimension à centered on artistic work shared with choreographers and artists not only from the French-speaking community but also from the international scene, while maintaining continuous audience engagement.
While the creative work of the three associate artists/directors lies at the heart of the activity of CHARLEROI DANSES , the Centre offers custom-made residencies in accordance with the specific requirements of the artists. The activities of Charleroi Danses take place in Les Âcuries of Charleroi and at La Raffinerie in Brussels: including the production and touring of the work of the artists/directors and residents and the programming of various events such as the dance Biennale.
Charleroi Danses offers a year-round Training Program for professional dancers in the form of classes and workshops and organizes master classes and Ãlaboratory spacesà led by the various creative artists of the Centre. In collaboration with the schools, Charleroi Danses has also set up a program of artistic workshops under the aegis of the
D.A.S. (Dispositif dÃAccrochage Scolaire) in Brussels as well as a series of interventions for dance appreciation with the schools of the Hainaut region of Belgium.
UMS welcomes Charleroi Danses, Belgium as the company makes its UMS debut this week.
