SUMMARY:Music From Warm Places
DESCRIPTION:The Concord Band presents Music From Warm Places on Saturday\, March 8\, 2025\, 7:00 PM at the 51 Walden Performing Arts Center in Concord MA. Under the baton of Music Director James O’Dell\, the program includes captivating works by Lewis Buckley\, Nubia Jaime-Donjuan\, Shelly Hanson\, Terry White and Óscar Navarro. \nA highlight of the program is the Concerto for Clarinet and Wind Band by Spanish composer Óscar Navarro\, masterfully performed by Acton resident Jerry Vabulas\, an outstanding soloist and member of the Concord Band since 2012. Jerry has also soloed with Leominster Colonial Band\, the Fitchburg Military Band\, the Carlisle Chamber Orchestra\, the Lowell Philharmonic Orchestra and the Lincoln-Sudbury Civic Orchestra. Navarro’s composition displays the full range and virtuosity of the clarinet\, along with extended delicate pianissimos and an irresistible touch of jazz. \nJaime-Donjuan’s four-movement Little Mexican Suite is based on traditional Mexican musical genres. Each movement is inspired by a species of tree native to Mexico that has touched the composer’s life. Volver A La Montaña (Return to the Mountain)\, by Shelly Hanson\, is based on the folk music of the Quechua people of Ecuador\, Peru and Bolivia. Terry White’s Fantasia Latina\, a composition commissioned by percussionist Neil Tischler that premiered in March 2020\, is based on four Latin dance styles—tango\, danzon\, songo and samba—and is full of unexpected rhythmic and harmonic twists. Con Sabor Español (With a Spanish Flavor)\, composed by the MetWinds’ former director\, Lew Buckley\, also features numerous rhythmic and time changes. \nThe evening also features a special guest performance by the distinguished Area 9 Saxophone Quartet playing Saxophone Quartet by Venezuelan composer and pianist Aldemaro Romero. Area 9 is a Boston-based ensemble committed to performing rich\, diverse\, and ever growing chamber music repertoire for saxophone. \nAdmission is free to the public; donations of $20 are requested. The Concord Band serves the Concord community and surrounding towns. Additional information about the Concord Band can be found at www.concordband.org

SUMMARY:Concord250 Event: Umbrella Arts: "Where We Belong"
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous Theater-Maker’s Journey Grapples with Geographic Borders and\nCultural Legacies in a Universal Search for Belonging \nFebruary 28- March 23\, 2025 TICKETS \nUmbrella Arts\, Black Box Theater \nBy Madeline Sayet\, Directed by Tara Moses \nThe Umbrella Stage Company is thrilled to mount the New England Premiere of Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet’s ground-breaking one-woman show\, Where We Belong.\nPerformed for the first time by an artist other than Sayet herself\, it is helmed by fellow\nIndigenous director and playwright Tara Moses and stars GiGi Buddie. This brand new staging in\nConcord\, MA during the Semiquincentennial of the beginning of the American Revolution raises\ntimely questions of whose histories are told\, how\, by whom\, and in what language. \nWith great humor\, insight\, and imaginative storytelling\, the autobiographical play weaves\ntogether Indigenous history\, Shakespeare\, cultural legacy\, the power of language\, and legend. It\nrecounts Sayet’s 2015 journey to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare in the shadow of the\nBrexit vote. Moving between nations that have failed to reckon with their ongoing roles in\ncolonialism\, she grapples with what it means to remain or leave her own home as a Mohegan\,\nbut discovers comfort in mirroring the footsteps of her ancestors who traveled to England in the\n1700s. \n“Madeline’s story is uniquely personal\, but universally relatable. Following the completion of\nthe original tour with Madeline at the center\,” says Brian Boruta\, Umbrella Stage Producing\nArtistic Director\, “we wanted to explore how the play could evolve\, be adapted for other\nperformers\, and reveal a continuing relevance for future productions and new audiences. Sayet\noriginally developed the play in partnership with Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in\nassociation with The Folger Shakespeare Library\, and is engaged with the Umbrella team on this\nnext evolution. \nThe show runs Feb. 28-Mar. 23 (press opening Sunday Mar. 2\, 3:00PM)\, including a special\nStudent Group Matinee Wed. Mar. 12 at 4PM\, and select performances will feature engagement\nopportunities.\n● Dinner & A Show packages are available for all Thursday night performances\n● Talk Backs scheduled following performances on March 12\, 16 and 20\n● Childcare with art activities for youth ages 5-12 is available through The Umbrella’s Kid\nCare program for parents interested in attending the March 16 matinee\nPlanned community engagement activities will also highlight art and experiences of Concord’s\nnative Nipmuc and Massachusett tribes\, including a concurrent gallery exhibition of work by\nNipmuc photographer Scott Strong Hawk Foster.\nThe Umbrella is ADA accessible\, a proud partner in the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s EBT\nCard-to-Culture program\, and provides free parking and free admission to its visual arts\ngalleries. See https://TheUmbrellaArts.org/WWB for more information. \nSpecial Note to Press: We ask our friends in the press to please respect the request to avoid\nreproducing Mohegan language words in their coverage\, including those in the script\, as this is a\nlanguage under active reconstruction and reclamation. \n  \nABOUT MADELINE SAYET\nMadeline Sayet is a member of the Mohegan Tribe in Connecticut\, where she was raised on a\ncombination of traditional Mohegan stories and Shakespeare. Both of which have influenced\nher work as a playwright and director.\nShe has been named a Forbes 30 Under 30 in Hollywood & Entertainment\, a NCAIED Native\nAmerican 40 Under 40\, a TED Fellow\, MIT Media Lab Director’s Fellow\, and a recipient of the\nWhite House Champion of Change Award from President Obama.

SUMMARY:Concord250 Event: Where We Belong\, New England Premiere!
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous Theater-Maker’s Journey Grapples with Geographic Borders and\nCultural Legacies in a Universal Search for Belonging \nFebruary 28- March 23\, 2025 \nUmbrella Arts\, Black Box Theater \nBy Madeline Sayet\, Directed by Tara Moses \nThe Umbrella Stage Company is thrilled to mount the New England Premiere of Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet’s ground-breaking one-woman show\, Where We Belong.\nPerformed for the first time by an artist other than Sayet herself\, it is helmed by fellow\nIndigenous director and playwright Tara Moses and stars GiGi Buddie. This brand new staging in\nConcord\, MA during the Semiquincentennial of the beginning of the American Revolution raises\ntimely questions of whose histories are told\, how\, by whom\, and in what language. \nWith great humor\, insight\, and imaginative storytelling\, the autobiographical play weaves\ntogether Indigenous history\, Shakespeare\, cultural legacy\, the power of language\, and legend. It\nrecounts Sayet’s 2015 journey to England to pursue a PhD in Shakespeare in the shadow of the\nBrexit vote. Moving between nations that have failed to reckon with their ongoing roles in\ncolonialism\, she grapples with what it means to remain or leave her own home as a Mohegan\,\nbut discovers comfort in mirroring the footsteps of her ancestors who traveled to England in the\n1700s. \n“Madeline’s story is uniquely personal\, but universally relatable. Following the completion of\nthe original tour with Madeline at the center\,” says Brian Boruta\, Umbrella Stage Producing\nArtistic Director\, “we wanted to explore how the play could evolve\, be adapted for other\nperformers\, and reveal a continuing relevance for future productions and new audiences. Sayet\noriginally developed the play in partnership with Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in\nassociation with The Folger Shakespeare Library\, and is engaged with the Umbrella team on this\nnext evolution. \nThe show runs Feb. 28-Mar. 23 (press opening Sunday Mar. 2\, 3:00PM)\, including a special\nStudent Group Matinee Wed. Mar. 12 at 4PM\, and select performances will feature engagement\nopportunities.\n● Dinner & A Show packages are available for all Thursday night performances\n● Talk Backs scheduled following performances on March 12\, 16 and 20\n● Childcare with art activities for youth ages 5-12 is available through The Umbrella’s Kid\nCare program for parents interested in attending the March 16 matinee\nPlanned community engagement activities will also highlight art and experiences of Concord’s\nnative Nipmuc and Massachusett tribes\, including a concurrent gallery exhibition of work by\nNipmuc photographer Scott Strong Hawk Foster.\nThe Umbrella is ADA accessible\, a proud partner in the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s EBT\nCard-to-Culture program\, and provides free parking and free admission to its visual arts\ngalleries. See https://TheUmbrellaArts.org/WWB for more information. \nSpecial Note to Press: We ask our friends in the press to please respect the request to avoid\nreproducing Mohegan language words in their coverage\, including those in the script\, as this is a\nlanguage under active reconstruction and reclamation. \n  \nABOUT MADELINE SAYET\nMadeline Sayet is a member of the Mohegan Tribe in Connecticut\, where she was raised on a\ncombination of traditional Mohegan stories and Shakespeare. Both of which have influenced\nher work as a playwright and director.\nShe has been named a Forbes 30 Under 30 in Hollywood & Entertainment\, a NCAIED Native\nAmerican 40 Under 40\, a TED Fellow\, MIT Media Lab Director’s Fellow\, and a recipient of the\nWhite House Champion of Change Award from President Obama.
