NEW YORK –– Juilliard announces a dynamic fall season of music, dance, and drama performances, celebrating the students’ return to the stage and welcoming fully vaccinated public audiences. Performances for the fall semester in Alice Tully Hall begin on October 14 and tickets go on sale starting Friday, October 1. Public performances in the Irene Diamond Building, including free and non-ticketed events such as recitals, begin on October 13. Ticketed events in the Irene Diamond Building begin on October 24, and tickets will go on sale in mid-October.

“The past year and a half has shown us – more than ever – how vitally important the arts are to the human experience,” Juilliard President Damian Woetzel said. “Throughout this time the commitment to artistic innovation and creativity shown by our students and faculty has propelled us forward no matter what the challenges. Juilliard never stopped and we are ready for this exhilarating moment of reconnection. We have all missed the energy of our live audiences, and we can’t wait to share our many performances of music, dance, and drama with our New York community, as we continue to expand our connections with audiences around the world through Juilliard LIVE.”

MILESTONE ANNIVERSARIES IN 2021-22
Juilliard celebrates several milestone anniversaries this season. The Juilliard String Quartet—Areta  Zhulla, Ronald Copes, Roger Tapping, and Astrid Schween—celebrates its 75th anniversary as the school’s quartet in residence; Juilliard Dance, directed by Alicia Graf Mack, founded in 1951 turns 70; Juilliard Jazz, directed by Wynton Marsalis, founded in 2001, turns 20; and the Music Advancement Program (MAP), directed by Anthony McGill, which serves students from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in the classical music field, marks its 30th year. Additional programming in celebration of these anniversaries will be announced.

2021-22 CREATIVE ASSOCIATES
Joining an expanding group of Creative Associates who have ongoing ties to the school, Juilliard welcomes 2021-22 Creative Associates Claire Chase, Barbara Hannigan, Nathalie Joachim, Jennifer Koh, Caili Quan, and Conrad Tao. Additional artists as well as publicly available events for the 2021-22 academic year will be announced in the coming months. The Creative Associates program, a president’s initiative created in 2018 by Damian Woetzel, brings to Juilliard artists in residence whose work exemplifies collaborative and interdisciplinary innovation. Each Creative Associate spends time at Juilliard engaging with the Juilliard community as well as with fellow Creative Associates through workshops, performances, coachings, public discussions, and other special projects. Building on the rich history of Juilliard’s composers, choreographers, and playwrights, the Creative Associates program affirms that creative practice is an essential part of the educational excellence that is the hallmark of Juilliard and champions the unique opportunity for interdisciplinary work between Juilliard’s divisions of music, dance, and drama. Detailed information on the Creative Associates and a growing library of past collaborative projects with Juilliard students are available online.

FALL SEASON OVERVIEW

Music Division
The Music Division, under the direction of its new Dean and Director, David Serkin Ludwig, encompasses orchestra, vocal arts, historical performance, jazz, chamber music, new music, conducting and composition.

The Juilliard Orchestra will perform in a number of programs this fall at Alice Tully Hall and in the Peter Jay Sharp Theater. The season opened with a program of Haydn and Stravinsky conducted by newly named Creative Associate Barbara Hannigan, an excerpt of which is available on demand. Additional performances this fall include guest conductor Xian Zhang leading works by Qigang Chen, Rachmaninoff, and Rimsky-Korsakov (October 25), guest conductor Sir Antonio Pappano conducting works by Coleridge-Taylor, Walton, and Strauss (November 15), and John Adams leading works by Reich, Bartók, and Sibelius (November 22). The season also includes an appearance by the conductorless ensemble Juilliard Chamber Orchestra, performing works by Joan Tower, Haydn, and Mendelssohn (December 9).

Juilliard’s media gallery includes on-demand Juilliard Orchestra performances conducted by David Robertson, Jeffrey Milarsky, Xian Zhang, and David Chan. Of special note is Of Thee I Sing | An Expansion of Charles Ives’ Variations on “America," co-created by David Robertson, director of conducting studies and distinguished visiting faculty, and Creative Associate Kurt Crowley and released for Independence Day in 2021. “Of Thee I Sing” brought together over 100 Juilliard musicians, forming a virtual orchestra of those studying at the Lincoln Center campus along with their fellow students located around the world.

Juilliard’s Ellen and James S. Marcus Institute for Vocal Arts, led by Brian Zeger, artistic director, announces its fall season of live opera and vocal arts performances. A major event this fall is the New York staged premiere of Luigi Rossi’s L’Orfeo with Juilliard415, conducted by Avi Stein and directed by Mary Birnbaum, on November 10, 12, and 14, in Juilliard’s Peter Jay Sharp Theater. Juilliard Songfest will be presented on December 6, at 7:30pm, in Alice Tully Hall, in a program curated and performed by Zeger with Juilliard singers. Additionally this year, renowned opera singers and distinguished visiting faculty members mezzo-soprano Denyce Graves and tenor Lawrence Brownlee will continue their coaching work with Juilliard singers. Vocal Arts students gave several performances last year which are now available on demand, most notably Handel’s Teseo, directed by Stephen Wadsworth with Gary Thor Wedow conducting Juilliard415 and Juilliard singers. A short documentary, Toward Handel’s Teseo, which outlines the lengths taken by the school to fully produce an opera in pandemic conditions is also available. Additional Vocal Arts performances from last year will be released on demand this fall.

Led by Robert Mealy, artistic director, the Historical Performance department is the school’s graduate-level, full tuition scholarship program for early music. Its primary period-instrument ensemble, Juilliard415, will be working with early music specialists Masaaki Suzuki (October 16), Pablo Heras-Casado (November 6), and Rachel Podger (December 5). Additionally, Juilliard415 will collaborate on the above-mentioned New York staged premiere of Luigi Rossi’s L’Orfeo, conducted by Avi Stein (November 10, 12, and 14). Over the past year, Historical Performance students performed in a number of programs that are now available on demand, including "Chaconne," composed by David Belkovsky (MM ‘20), a collaborative project with faculty, remote and in-person students, and guest secondary school students; Madness and Enchantment: Music of 17th Century England, led by conductor and violin Rachel Podger; Kristian Bezuidenhout Conducts Juilliard415, and Juilliard415 presents “Le Monde Galant,” conducted by Nicholas McGegan.

Juilliard Jazz was established as part of the Music Division in 2001 as “an important sign of the maturation of American culture and a reflection of Juilliard’s growth in music education,” according to trumpet alumnus and composer Wynton Marsalis, director. Also led by Aaron Flagg, chair and associate director, Juilliard Jazz has developed into one of the most exciting and innovative jazz programs in the country. The program combines serious study of the history and traditions of Jazz with unparalleled professional performance opportunities designed to immerse students in New York’s thriving jazz environment. To mark the 20th anniversary year of the program, Juilliard Jazz will be hosting alumni panel discussions, gatherings and concerts featuring alumni compositions. The Juilliard Jazz Orchestra will center music by the alumni in Standards Revisited: Celebrating the Legacy of Juilliard Jazz featuring guest conductors and alumni Ryan Keberle (AD ’03), Jennifer Krupa (AD ’03), and Brandon Lee (MM ’07) (Saturday, October 30, at 7:30pm in Alice Tully Hall). Performances from the past year available on-demand are the Jelly Roll Morton Ensemble performing The Music of Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and the Juilliard Jazz Orchestra in The Music of Bill Challis, Don Redman and Eddie Durham.

In a highlight of the fall Chamber Music season, the Juilliard String Quartet will celebrate its 75th anniversary season with a fall performance featuring two new works co-commissioned by Juilliard and the ensemble from German composer Jörg Widmann, who was commissioned to write two quartets to premiere this season alongside late quartets by Beethoven (Tuesday, November 30, 7:30pm, Alice Tully Hall). This performance is presented as part of the Daniel Saidenberg Faculty Recital Series which also includes a performance by the American Brass Quintet, another resident ensemble, which will present a program including the premiere of Don York’s complete Quarantine Quintet, composed in 2021 (Tuesday, November 9, 7:30pm, Paul Hall). A faculty recital in the series will be presented by violinist Catherine Cho, violist Hsin-Yun Huang, cellist Natasha Brofsky, and pianist Robert McDonald (Tuesday, October 12, 2021, 7:30pm, Paul Hall). The inaugural Gerschen Cohen Memorial Recital will feature violinist Stella Chen (Wednesday, November 10, 7:30pm, Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall), and the Leo B. Ruiz Memorial Recital will feature cellist Sophia Bacelar (Wednesday, December 8, 7:30pm, Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall).

Juilliard will continue to livestream student recitals for the public on its website. Typically there are more than 400 student recitals including students from both the college and preparatory divisions.

Juilliard presents numerous contemporary music performances this fall, including the New Juilliard Ensemble (NJE), conducted by Joel Sachs; AXIOM, conducted by Jeffrey Milarsky; and the Juilliard Percussion Ensemble, directed by Daniel Druckman. NJE celebrates the diversity of today’s music, focusing primarily on repertory of the last decade and presenting international composers who write in the most varied styles. On Monday, November 8 at 7:30pm, Sachs will lead the NJE in New York premieres by Roberto Sierra, Gabriela Ortiz, and other works. AXIOM, led by music director Jeffrey Milarsky and dedicated to performing the masterworks of the 20th and 21st centuries, performs three free concerts each year. This fall, Milarsky will lead AXIOM in a free performance featuring works by Pierre Boulez, Alvin Singleton, and Olivier Messiaen on October 29 at 7:30pm in Alice Tully Hall. The Juilliard Percussion Ensemble performs an all-Steven Mackey program on Saturday, November 20, at 7:30pm in Peter Jay Sharp Theater.

Juilliard Dance
The Dance Division at Juilliard celebrates its 70th anniversary this season. Established in 1951 under the leadership of founding director Martha Hill, it pioneered equal instruction in both modern and ballet techniques, and established the pattern of educating the future leaders of the dance world. Now under the direction of Alicia Graf Mack, dean and director, assisted by Mario Alberto Zambrano, associate director, Juilliard Dance encompasses ballet, modern, and contemporary dance forms, and opportunities to learn from faculty and guest teachers and choreographers of the highest level, and to create new work.

The season opens with Choreographers and Composers, an annual interdisciplinary project in which dance division students are paired with students from Juilliard’s composition department to collaborate on a set of new works (November 19 at 6pm and 9pm and November 20 at 3pm and 7:30pm in the Willson Theater). The cornerstone of the fall season is New Dances: Edition 2021 featuring four world-premiere dances by innovative choreographers Creative Associate Caili Quan (first-year class); Rena Butler (second-year class); alumnus Norbert De La Cruz III (third-year class); and Justin Peck (fourth-year class). New Dances performances take place December 8-10, at 7:30pm; December 11, at 2pm and 7:30pm; and December 12, at 3pm; all in Juilliard’s Peter Jay Sharp Theater.

Last year, Juilliard Dance produced both Choreographers and Composers (Program A and Program B) and New Dances for a digital audience, and these stunning collaborations are currently available on demand along with a growing body of work created both remotely and in person over the past year, available through Juilliard’s Media Gallery.

Juilliard Drama
The Drama Division, under the direction of Evan Yionoulis, Richard Rodgers dean and director, joined by newly appointed associate director Derrick Sanders, presents fully staged productions showcasing Juilliard’s graduating acting students (Group 51). This fall season’s productions include God’s Ear by playwriting alumna Jenny Schwartz, directed by Jackson Gay (October 7-10); Stick Fly by Lydia R. Diamond, directed by Derrick Sanders (November 5-8); and Indecent by Paula Vogel, directed by Maggie Burrows (December 10-13). During the past academic year, students created a significant body of work, much of it captured on film. Six of last year’s productions will have a limited screening release later in the fall.

Preparatory Division
Under the direction of Weston Sprott, dean, the Preparatory Division encompasses Juilliard’s Pre-College program and the Music Advancement Program (MAP), led by Anthony McGill, artistic director. Celebrating its 30th anniversary this season, MAP is a program for intermediate and advanced music students from New York City’s five boroughs and the tristate area who demonstrate a commitment to artistic excellence. The program actively seeks students from diverse backgrounds underrepresented in the classical music field and is committed to enrolling the most talented and deserving students regardless of their financial background.

This year, MAP welcomes flutist and composer Valerie Coleman for a year-long residency through American Composers Forum (ACF) and its BandQuest commission and residency program. During the 2021-22 school year, Coleman will work with the young musicians of MAP in a residency that will include workshops, conversations, performances, chamber coachings, and full ensemble collaboration. A culminating piece, co-created by Coleman with the MAP students, will receive its world premiere in New York City in April, 2022. Additional MAP performances this fall include the MAP Chamber Music concert on December 11, at 5:30pm, Paul Hall, and the MAP Chorus concert in December on a date that will be announced later.

The Pre-College program is a comprehensive conservatory-style music program for students 8–18 years old who exhibit the talent, potential and ambition to pursue serious music study at the college level. Adam Glaser will conduct the Pre-College Orchestra in works by Valerie Coleman, Bernstein, Nielsen, and Gershwin on November 20, at 7:30pm, Alice Tully Hall; Nico Olarte-Hayes will conduct the Pre-College String Orchestra on December 18, at 4:30pm, Peter Jay Sharp Theater in works by Anna Clyne, Respighi, Vivaldi, and Prokofiev; and Glaser will conduct the Pre-College Symphony in works by Coleridge-Taylor, Kodály, Turina, and Schumann (December 18, at 7:30pm, Peter Jay Sharp Theater). Preparatory Division students and faculty frequently give recitals, which are available to stream through the performance calendar.

Students from both Pre-College and MAP participated in Village, a new work for percussion ensemble commissioned from composer Kendall Williams for the Preparatory Division and the Washington Heights and Inwood Music Community Charter School (WHIN) that began as an opportunity to connect and resulted in the creation of a new community of artists of various ages and across disciplines. You can watch the resulting performance of Village, which also featured original choreography created and performed by Dance Division students, and see a short making-of documentary about it here.
