April 30–May 3, 2015
LITfest April 27-May 1
Welcome to ARTS FIRST 2015, Harvard’s annual spring celebration of student and faculty creativity. We’re excited to bring you this four-day festival of performing and visual arts, which showcases the extraordinary range of artistic activity across the campus.
This year’s festival includes a stunning lineup of student and faculty works at a variety of venues including the beautiful open-air Plaza and the gloriously re-opened Harvard Art Museums. Highlights include LITfest, Arts Medal recipient Damian Woetzel, the Harvard Civil War Project, jazz compositions and improvisation from the class of Vijay Iyer, the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra performing
Dvořák under the baton of Maestro Federico Cortese, Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake like you’ve never seen it before and a Spring Forward storytelling lineup that will culminate in Aaron Copland’s Appalachian Spring. You can read about all of these and more in this guide.
Our goal is, as ever, to give our students and the greater Cambridge-Boston community the opportunity to experience the arts – as practitioners and audience members – during this concentrated annual extravaganza. Harvard’s year-round commitment to the arts is ever growing and includes the debut of a concentration in theater, dance and media, the expanded Harvard Ed Portal with a performance space and, with the renovation of Quincy and Leverett Houses, additional performance and art-making spaces.
This is a truly creative time to be at Harvard. And ARTS FIRST is our testament to the talent and promise of the arts in all our lives and in our world. We hope you have a wonderful time seeing art and making art with us this weekend.

HARVARD ARTS MEDAL CEREMONY
Damian Woetzel MPA '07, Dancer and Arts Leader Hosted by President Drew Gilpin Faust Conversation moderated by John Lithgow '67Thursday, April 30, 4 pm
Farkas HallAdmission free and open to the public, tickets required (limit two per person); available through the Harvard Box Office beginning April 21 for Harvard affiliates and April 23 for the public.
During more than two decades at New York City Ballet, Damian Woetzel was a virtuoso dancer who made the most complex moves look fun and, with his own stellar work, made an immense contribution to the world of dance. "Woetzel is power blasting through different orbits at once," wrote Dance Magazine. "The style, ebullience, clarity and commitment he showed onstage as a dancer at New York City Ballet has completely transferred to his activities offstage and behind the scenes."
A graduate of Harvard Kennedy School of Government and director of the Aspen Institute Arts Program and Harman Eisner Artist in Residence Program, Woetzel aims to further the value of the arts in society, focusing on education, social justice, economics and diplomacy.
“I always look for options that yield something unexpected,” Woetzel said in The New York Times. “What I crave is to get into these unique venues and make something that really hasn’t been done before, where people are without a net, and you have no idea what is going to happen. It’s the same for me, whether it’s the education work I do or the programming. That’s how you live. You participate. You take risks.”
Woetzel serves on the Kennedy Center Honors Artists Committee and the Knight Foundation National Arts Advisory Committee. He was a member of the Harvard University Task Force on the Arts, and he is on President Obama’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities.
The Harvard Arts Medal is given each year to a distinguished Harvard or Radcliffe graduate or faculty member who has achieved excellence in the arts and has made a contribution through the arts to education or the public good.

HARVARD CIVIL WAR PROJECT Harvard Civil War Project is a multidisciplinary arts and academic series—including concerts, theatrical performances, panels, lectures, public art, exhibitions, gallery talks, academic coursework and public conversations presented by more than 10 Harvard affiliated departments—addressing the impact and meaning of America’s historic conflict.
The greatest crisis in our nation’s history, the American Civil War still reverberates today. This historical watershed, its aftermath and its contemporary resonances are the focus of HCWP, which was inspired by the National Civil War Project and the 150th anniversary of the war’s conclusion.
“The Harvard Civil War Project draws on the remarkable academic and creative strengths that exist across the University to consider the significance, past and present of a great milestone in American history,” said Drew Gilpin Faust, president of Harvard University and a historian of the Civil War and the American South. “It supports new insight into our nation's experience of the war and advances the still-unfinished work of creating a more perfect union.”
Throughout the spring, HCWP participants have explored the complex, contested meanings and outcomes of the war. The events during ARTS FIRST continue the discussion.

Deep WoundsMonday-Friday 10 am-6 pm, Saturday-Sunday 12-6 pm
An explorer of the “soul” in technology, artist Brian Knep has created a large-scale digital/video installation that weds this pursuit with psychological inquiry. Deep Wounds draws on the architectural and historical context of Memorial Hall—built to honor Harvard alumni who fought for the Union in the American Civil War—to consider the universal and complex challenges of conflict, transgression and reconciliation. Commissioned by the Office for the Arts Public Art Program, Deep Wounds is free and open to the public. Runs through Thursday, May 7; closed April 19.Memorial Hall, 45 Quincy St.
Memory’s Keeping: David Lang’s Battle HymnsHarvard Dance Project (Jill Johnson, Artistic Director), Harvard-Radcliffe Collegium Musicum (Andrew Clark, Conductor) and Boston Children’s Chorus (Anthony Trecek-King, Artistic Director) Saturday 8 pm This New England premiere of Battle Hymns by the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer David Lang is a collage of texts about war: a speech of Abraham Lincoln, parlor songs of Stephen Foster and a soldier’s letter to his wife. The performance also features the premiere of a new work from Harvard’s inaugural student choral composition competition: a setting of Oliver Wendell Holmes’ Hymn, written for the Memorial Hall cornerstone laying ceremony in 1870. Sanders Theatre, Memorial Hall, 45 Quincy St. Tickets: Harvard Box Office, Smith Center, 1340 Massachusetts Ave. 617.496.2222 | boxoffice.harvard.edu
A Heartrending Cry: Dona Nobis Pacem by Ralph Vaughan WilliamsHarvard-Radcliffe Chorus (Edward Elwyn Jones, Artistic Director) Sunday 4 pm Vaughan Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem, written in 1936, made an uplifting plea for peace and sounded a fervent warning at a time when Europe was moving toward another catastrophic war. Three Walt Whitman poems are framed by words from the Latin Mass, the Old Testament and John Bright’s famous House of Commons speech during the Crimean War. The concert also includes William Schuman’s A Free Song, which was awarded the first Pulitzer Prize in music in 1943. Sanders Theatre, Memorial Hall, 45 Quincy St. Tickets: Harvard Box Office
