SUMMARY:Myra Melford's Fire & Water Quintet at the Cy Twombly Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Myra Melford’s Fire & Water Quintet\nat the Cy Twombly Gallery\nTwo performances: 5:30PM and 7:30PM. Seating is limited and will be on a first-come\, first-served basis.\nCo-Presented by The Menil Collection and Nameless Sound\nMyra Melford is the epitome of an artist who balances composition with improvisation and blends them into a seamless flow of creative impulses and diverse influences. She exemplifies the boundary-pushing and vital form that contemporary jazz continues to be.\nA recipient of many awards and accolades (Fulbright Scholarship\, Guggenheim Fellowship\, Alpert Award in the Arts\, numerous placements in the Downbeat polls)\, the intensely dynamic pianist consistently surrounds herself in ensembles of equals – improviser/composers who are as virtuosic and creatively boundless as she is. Her Fire & Water Quintet is no exception. It features Melford in the company of some of contemporary jazz’s most vibrant creators and instrumentalists: Mary Halvorson (guitar)\, Ingrid Laubrock (saxophones)\, Lesley Mok (drums\, percussion)\, and Tomeka Reid (cello). The quintet is named after a set of drawings by the renowned artist Cy Twombly. Their debut album is a suite of pieces representing the first installment of Melford’s extensive multi-part tribute to the artist.\n“I read that when Twombly was a young artist\, one of the things he did to train himself was to turn out all the lights at night and draw in the dark\,” she recalls. “He was interested in what it felt like to make the line more than what it looked like\, and that seemed like an apt metaphor for how I play the piano. For me\, it’s all about the gesture and the energy. Of course\, there’s a sound to it\, but it’s almost as if the sound is the information I get after the impulse to make a gesture.” – Myra Melford\nNameless Sound’s presentation of Myra Melford’s Fire & Water Quintet is supported through a Chamber Music America Presenter Consortium for Jazz grant in collaboration with Epistrophy Arts\nand The New Quorum.\nA component of the Doris Duke Jazz Ensembles Project\, Presenter Consortium for Jazz is funded by the Doris Duke Foundation.

SUMMARY:Beyond Broadway Series: Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age
DESCRIPTION:In Alan Cumming Is Not Acting His Age\, he covers all the bases: sex\, death and bacchanalia\, with a set list as eclectic as the man himself. Songs from Cabaret authors Kander and Ebb blend with contemporary favourites and even a self-penned paean against plastic surgery. ‘I am literally the only person on American TV who has not had botox!’ he quips. He also discusses the effects of gravity\, the time the mum from the Brady Bunch punched him\, and what his dog taught him about the quality of life.

SUMMARY:Beetlejuice
DESCRIPTION:He earned his stripes on Broadway… now the ghost-with-the-most is coming to Austin.\nIt’s showtime! Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film\, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz\, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. With an irreverent book\, an astonishing set\, and a score that’s out of this Netherworld\, BEETLEJUICE is “SCREAMINGLY GOOD FUN!” (Variety). And under its uproarious surface (six feet under\, to be exact)\, it’s a remarkably touching show about family\, love\, and making the most of every Day-O!\nBeetlejuice contains strong language\, mature references\, and a lot of the crazy\, inappropriate stuff you would expect from a deranged demon. Recommended for ages 13 and up.\nPresented by the Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center
