MEMBER CONNECTIONS - WTTW Chicago Public...

2 MAY 2016

Dear Member,

WTTW and WFMT have always synonymous with exceptional local content, and this month, we are proud to bring you an especially impressive array of options – everything from three new installments of our own homegrown national music series Soundstage to an acclaimed play from Albany Park Theater Project and Goodman Theatre; thought-provoking documentaries about the city’s Cabrini Green housing project and a secret WWII training exercise on Lake Michigan; an innovative film created

by a 12-year-old local filmmaker; and a new local series, The Interview Show with Mark Bazer (wttw.com/interviewshow).

This month on WTTW11 and wttw.com, there is something for everyone, including American Masters profiles of Janis Joplin and the Highwaymen; a new season of Genealogy Roadshow; That Bites!, a 12-year-old’s treatise on what it’s like to live with food allergies; a revealing series, Genius, hosted by renowned physicist (and genius) Stephen Hawking; all-new webisodes of Chat, Please! with David Manilow; the return of and final season with Kenneth Branagh as the brooding Swedish detective Wallander and the continuation of our popular Saturday night mysteries; and two important Independent Lens specials with town halls on gun violence in America. We close out the month with a new local documentary, Heroes on Deck:

World War II on Lake Michigan, about fighter pilots training on carriers near Chicago and the efforts being made to raise and restore their aircraft; and two annual mainstays: the National Memorial Day Concert and this year’s National Geographic Bee, both from Washington, DC. Remember that you can catch these on WTTW11, at wttw.com/video, and via the PBS video app.

On 98.7WFMT and wfmt.com, we herald Lyric Opera of Chicago with a month-opening broadcast of the company’s latest foray into the world of Rodgers & Hammerstein, The King and I. Then we’ll be starting our Saturday rebroadcasts of productions from the 2015-16 season; during May, enjoy The Marriage of Figaro, the new Bel Canto, and La Cenerentola. Stellar pianist Jeremy Denk performs live for WFMT from the Gilmore International Keyboard Festival an eclectic recital ranging from Beethoven to ragtime. We’ll welcome the Spektral Quartet and Civitas to Live from WFMT, and also present live Impromptus with the chamber musicians of Midsummer’s Music Festival and with pianist Marc-André Hamelin. At wfmt.com, you can also find the latest classical music and fine arts news stories, such as the announcement of this year’s Richard Tucker Award winner and our annual celebration of Major League Baseball’s Opening Day, plus a variety of interviews with visiting singers, conductors, and instrumentalists, illuminating lists, quizzes and contests, and more. Listen anywhere and anytime.

On behalf of WTTW and WFMT, thank you for choosing us, and for your continuing support. We couldn’t do it without you.

Sincerely,

Dan SchmidtPresident & CEO

This special Cornerstones of Rock concert is a nostalgic celebra-tion of the local “garage bands” that rose to national prominence in the 1960s and ’70s, and remain favorites today with their sing-along hits. This special shines a spotlight on the local groups from the

Chicago area who defined this era as they rose through the teen clubs all the way to national prominence.

Come see them live in a concert featuring The Ides of March, The Buckinghams, The New Colony Six with Bruce Mattey and Ray Graffia, The Cryan’ Shames, and more!

Each pair of tickets comes with the Cornerstones of Rock DVD/CD as a bonus! To purchase tickets, please visit wttw.com/events.

70 Acres in Chicago: Cabrini Green ScreeningWTTW, in partnership with the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events presents a FREE screening

of the documentary film 70 Acres in Chicago: Cabrini Green.Home to thousands, misunderstood by millions, Cabrini Green

once towered over Chicago’s most valuable neighborhoods. A loom-ing reminder of inequal-ity and poverty, Cabrini’s high-rises were demol-ished and an African-American community cleared to make room for another social experi-ment: mixed-income neighborhoods. Shot

over the course of 20 years, this film documents this upheaval, from the razing of the first buildings in 1995, to the clashes in the mixed-income neighborhoods a decade later. 70 Acres in Chicago tells the volatile story of this hotly contested patch of land, while looking unflinchingly at race, class, and who has the right to live in the city.

Immediately following the screening there will be a panel discussion with questions and comments from the audience. To reserve your spot, visit wttw.com/events.

2-for-1 Tickets to The Woman in Black

The Saint Sebastian Players (SSP) conclude their 35th season with Susan Hill’s acclaimed ghost story The Woman in Black. A lawyer, obsessed with a curse that he believes has been cast over him and his family by the spectre of a Woman in Black, engages a skeptical young ac-tor to help him tell his terrifying story and exor-cise the fear that grips his soul. It all begins in-nocently enough, but then, as they reach further into his darkest memories, they find themselves caught up in a world of eerie marshes and moaning winds. Stephen Mallatratt’s ingenious stage adaptation, a brilliantly successful study in atmosphere, illusion, and controlled horror, has been running in London for more than 25 years.

Performances of The Woman in Black take place April 29-May 22, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm and Sundays at 2:00 pm at St. Bonaventure, 1625 W. Diversey, at Marshfield just west of Ashland, in Chicago. Free parking is available in two lots. WTTW members may purchase two full-price tickets for the price of one, subject to availability, to any performance by emailing [email protected] and mentioning WTTW.

Great Performances: Broadway Musicals – A Jewish LegacyA throw-away joke in the blockbuster Monty Python musical Spamalot may say it best, albeit bluntly: “You won’t make it on Broadway if you don’t have any Jews.” The line is funny, but there is also more than a little truth in it. In this special, Michael Kantor focuses in on this central question: what exactly is it that is so “Jewish” about Broadway?


Nature: Meet the CoywolfThe coywolf, a mixture of western coyote and eastern wolf, is a remarkable new hybrid carnivore that is taking over territories once roamed by wolves and slipping unnoticed into our cities. Its appearance is very recent – within the last 90 years – in evolutionary terms, a blip in time. Tag along as scientists study this new top predator, tracking it from the wilderness of Ontario’s Algonquin Park, through parking lots, alleys, and backyards in Toronto, all the way to the streets of New York City.

10:00 Genius by Stephen Hawking: Why Are We Here? (Part 4 of 6) Stephen sets three ordinary people a truly mind-bending challenge: Can they work out why they exist at all?


70 Acres in Chicago: Cabrini GreenFor 70 years, there stood a Chicago public housing community known as Cabrini Green, which once towered over Chicago’s most valuable neighborhoods. Cabrini’s high-rises were demolished, and an African-American community cleared to make room for another social experiment: mixed-income neighborhoods. Shot over the course of 20 years, the film documents this upheaval, from the razing of the first buildings in 1995 to the clashes in the mixed-income neighborhoods a decade later.

Lyric Presents The King and IRodgers and Hammerstein’s classic tale of an English schoolteacher and a Siamese king comes to Lyric Opera as the grand finale to the 2015-16 season. Kate Baldwin stars as Anna, the teacher who comes to an exotic Asian palace to teach the royal children and becomes involved with the life of the entire court, and Paolo Montalban portrays the conflicted king, loyal to tradition but longing to modernize his family and his country. The relationship between the two is portrayed with both sensitivity and honesty. The show’s memorable songs include Shall We Dance, Something Wonderful, We Kiss in A Shadow, and Hello Young Lovers. Join WFMT for a broadcast of this Broadway smash.

Jeremy Denk Live from the Gilmore FestivalIn addition to being an award-winning pianist – MacArthur Fellow, 2014 Avery Fisher Prize, 2014 Musical America Instrumentalist of the Year – Jeremy Denk is a composer, a writer on music and, since last year, an artistic partner of the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. His recordings of works by Bach, Beethoven, and Ives have won widespread recognition too. He’s an upcoming guest at the Gilmore International Keyboard Festival, and will perform live from Gilmore over WFMT and wfmt.com. His recital program, also being presented at Carnegie Hall, could be taken as a kind of definition of the word eclectic: a Bach suite, a Beethoven sonata, and fantasies by Haydn and Schubert make up its standard-repertory elements. He’ll also perform music by William Byrd originally written for the Renaissance keyboard instrument called a virginal, two canons by Conlon Nancarrow, a Wagner arrangement by Donald Lambert, and a whole group of ragtime pieces by Joplin, Bolcom, Hindemith, Stravinsky, and Ives.

Tuesday, May 3, 7:00 pm

Peter Van De Graaff’s Hidden Gems“As someone,” says WFMT host Peter Van De Graaff, “who is always interested in answering the question ‘What else is out there?’ – I have long been attracted to the undiscovered. During May I’ll share with WFMT listeners what I consider to be some of the best and most interesting of my discoveries. Enjoy!” On weekday mornings in May, Carl Grapentine will welcome Peter to introduce little-known but fascinating pieces, beginning with Charles Alkan’s Studies in the Minor Keys for solo piano (May 2) and ending with Norwegian composer Johan Svendsen’s Symphony #2 (May 31). In between, Peter will offer a suite from Rameau’s comic ballet Platée (May 9); a symphony by Muzio Clementi, better known for keyboard music (May 13); and a quintet for piano and strings by Reynaldo Hahn, better known for songs (May 25). Join Peter to hear what he so aptly calls “hidden gems.”
