SUMMARY:"On Instinct" - New Work by Ashley Gottlieb
DESCRIPTION:“On Instinct” is an exhibition of new work by Reno-based artist Ashley Gottlieb. \nThe exhibition will run from November 4 to December 31\, 2023 at the South Valleys Library Art Gallery in Reno\, NV. \nThe public is invited to an artist reception on Wednesday\, November 15 from 5:30-6:30 pm at the South Valleys Library. \nLearn more at the show at https://www.ashleygottlieb.com/portfolio-1/oninstinct \nContact the artist with inquires at hello@ashleygottlieb.com \nArtist Statement for “On Instinct”: \n“On Instinct” is a collection of artworks developed using an automatic drawing technique that allows my primal urge to create freewheeling\, nonsensical shapes to run wild\, all while continuing to take a thoughtful approach to uncover the composition’s balance through color. What results is a personal journey of instinctual shape-making combined with audacious color palettes\, forming unexpected and energetic arrangements. \nThis series emerged as a response to frustration within the initial stages of my creative process for my next series. I had been grappling with a self-imposed expectation that my work needed more polish or less “strangeness\,” which only led to creative pressure and overthinking every decision. This led to a painful sketching process and rather boring compositions. I decided to stop forcing square pegs into round holes and instead followed my gut to sketch something from a natural state of flow. What transpired was exhilarating – playfulness\, movement\, energy\, and an elusive balance among the diverse shapes\, all while suggesting a hint of instability. These traits\, in conjunction with color\, remain at the heart of my ongoing artistic exploration and ignite my inner creativity. \nIn addition to my exploration of shape\, balance and color\, I aim to transport the viewer to an alternate realm\, one that is uniquely personal to each individual. While I have no specific realm in mind\, I envision it as a joyful and playful space. In many ways\, the artworks in “On Instinct” serve as psychological association tests. I invite you to embark on a personal journey when viewing each piece. Where does it take you? What do you see? Don’t overthink it. Just go with your instinct.

SUMMARY:Reno Jazz Orchestra to Present Ellington\, Shakespeare in Such Sweet Thunder Concert
DESCRIPTION:Shakespearian actors will join the Reno Jazz Orchestra to perform the music of Duke Ellington’s “Such Sweet Thunder” concert on November 11 and 12\, 2023\, at the Good Luck Macbeth Theater in Reno\, Nevada. David A. Brennan\, DMA\, will be the Guest Music Director\, and the Reno Jazz Orchestra’s Jazz Workshop students will open the show. \nDuring the concerts\, the Orchestra will perform works by Remy Le Boeuf\, Les Hooper and Gordon Goodwin\, capped by a performance of Duke Ellington’s suite\, “Such Sweet Thunder.” The concerts will be infused with professional actors performing excerpts from plays and sonnets written by William Shakespeare. \nGuest Music Director David A. Brennan\, DMA\, is the first of four candidates for the permanent position of RJO Music Director who will be conducting the Orchestra over the next five months.\nTickets are $35 for adults and $10 for students. For details\, visit RenoJazzOrchestra.org or call (775) 372-6160. \n“Inspired by the works of Shakespeare\, Duke and co-writer Billy Strayhorn captured heroic\, comedic and tragic moments in a jazz suite\,” said Chuck Reider\, Reno Jazz Orchestra Board President. “Producing this program was a labor of love as much of the music had to be transcribed from recordings and partial sketches provided by the Smithsonian Institute. It’s a wonder to hear Shakespeare’s words followed by Ellington’s expression of those words: truly magical.” \nRJO Tribute to Jim Kidder for Lifelong Support of the Arts\, Education \nThe Orchestra presented a similar show in 2011 on the Nevada Museum of Art’s rooftop.\nThe idea to combine the music of Ellington and sonnets of Shakespeare was the idea of Jim Kidder\, a former Orchestra Board member and lifelong supporter of the arts and education.\nThroughout Kidder’s college years\, career and retired years\, Kidder was and continues to be an exemplary leader and supporter of education and the arts. \n“We will be dedicating the return of Such Sweet Thunder to the stage on behalf of Jim\,” said Reider.\nA pre-concert Reception to honor Kidder will be held on November 11 at the theater beginning at 6:00 p.m. Tickets are $50 (which include appetizers\, beverages and a concert ticket) and are available at RenoJazzOrchestra.org. \nThe Orchestra is collecting tributes from the general public to share with Kidder. Acknowledgments can be posted through the Orchestra’s website. \nHis unparalleled list of contributions includes decades as a leader and mentor. \nAfter settling in Reno\, Kidder’s boundless passion for the arts found him volunteering countless hours with the City of Reno Commission on Arts and Culture\, Order of DeMolay Legion of Honor\, Pack PAWS Board of Directors\, Reno Chamber Orchestra Board of Directors\, Reno Jazz Orchestra Advisory Board\, Reno Philharmonic Association Board of Trustees\, Reno Pops Orchestra Advisory Board\, and the University of Nevada\, Reno\, College of Liberal Arts & School of the Arts Advisory Board. \nKidder also served as the facilitator for developing strategic plans for the National Judicial College\, the Greater Reno Balloon Race\, the Reno Philharmonic Association and the Reno Pops Orchestra.\nHe was on Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center Foundation Board of Trustees and is an active Tahoe-Pyramid Trail Board of Directors member. \nHis contributions to life in the Truckee Meadows extend to many organizations\, to hundreds of blood donations\, and attendance at thousands of musical\, theatrical and sporting events. Supporting him\, Mary Ann Kidder is Jim’s lifelong partner and has made her own myriad contributions. \nAbout the Reno Jazz Orchestra \nThe Reno Jazz Orchestra is a 17-piece contemporary big band in Northern Nevada. The band was formed in 1997 by musicians who performed with acts such as Frank Sinatra\, Sammy Davis Jr. and Natalie Cole in the casino showroom orchestras.

SUMMARY:Performing Arts Series presents Krakauer & Tagg’s Square Peg Throwdown
DESCRIPTION:The Performing Arts Series presents Krakauer & Tagg’s Square Peg Throwdown — a good vibes explosion that is everything we need today. Spearheaded by David Krakauer and pro-ducer Kathleen Tagg\, Square Peg Throwdown showcases an international crew of high octane musicians. Square Peg Throwdown’s influences are global\, but the sound they create collec-tively has produced something uniquely their own. Familiar dance forms such as Polka or Square Dance never sounded this way before\, with hand drumming\, propulsive electronic beats\, lyrics calling for catharsis and positivity\, deep grooves and Krakauer’s wailing clarinet crying out for us to join together\, celebrate and feel the power in our aliveness. “Ebullient clarinet wizard” (Time Out NY) Krakauer is the Godfather to Tagg’s quirky keys & production\, Iranian dynamo Martin Shamoonpour’s hand drumming\, jazz guru Jerome Harris’ driving bass\, rapper Sarah MK’s trenchant rhymes & oud- and guitar-meister Yoshie Fruchter’s sinuous lines. In addition\, Jeremy Flower and Selwa Abd (aka Bergsonist) produced beats to round out the sound for layering with the live performance.
