Annual Report 2012–13

Lincoln Center 1

Summer at Lincoln Center attracted tens of thousands of people to Damrosch Park for magical nights under the stars.

This initiative leverages the knowledge and experience of our professional staff to advise clients on the establishment and operation of performing arts centers around the world. Our first major consulting project has been successfully completed in Tianjin, China, leading to new clients in many other parts of the world, and opening additional new opportunities for international artistic exchange.

While reaching out in new directions, we remain committed to producing and presenting the very best performing arts. That commitment was gloriously in evidence during the 2012–2013 season. Classical favorites and cutting-edge contemporary performances brought large and enthusiastic audiences to our concert halls and public spaces. You can enjoy season highlights on the pages that follow.

The season also found us preparing for an important transition in our leadership. At the end of January 2014, Reynold Levy will step down after serving nearly 12 years as president. Jed Bernstein, a dynamic, entrepreneurial arts executive, theater producer and arts educator, will become Lincoln Center’s ninth president. We know you will join us in welcoming Jed to his new role.

He will be taking the reins of an institution that is financially sound and creatively thriving. Institutions do not reach that kind of status independently, and Lincoln Center’s vibrancy reflects the support of our committed friends. We want to thank you for placing your confidence in us and for your generous support as we have continued to expand the ways we deliver on our mission. We also want to express our appreciation to the City of New York, which remains our leading public sector champion and has helped us broaden our scope as a civic asset for this great city.

Together, our patrons, artists, board members, neighbors and friends make up the Lincoln Center community. We look forward to what this community can accomplish in the years ahead.

Katherine Farley Reynold LevyChair President

Jed Bernstein, will succeed Reynold Levy as Lincoln Center‘s new

president in January 2014.

Jed is a native New Yorker with a lifetime passion for the arts,

and extensive experience in producing, arts administration and

education, fundraising, and the use of digital platforms to expand

the reach of the performing arts. For the past seven years, Jed was

president of Above the Title Entertainment, a theater/television

production company and marketing consultancy. As an independent

Broadway producer, he received a Tony Award for the revival of

Hair, and most recently produced Driving Miss Daisy on Broadway,

the West End, and in Australia. Since 2011 he has simultaneously

played a central role in the financial and creative restructuring and

renovation of the iconic Bucks County Playhouse, where he served

as producing director.

As president of the Broadway League for 11 years, he led more than

500 members nationally, a role that required a collaborative style

of leadership. His work on digital platforms included the launches

of the Internet Broadway Database, the number-one theatrical

industry data resource, and TonyAwards.com. During his 15 years

in the marketing and advertising industry, Jed led creative teams

and worked closely with corporate clients such as IBM, American

Express, and Seagrams. He has been a successful fundraiser for his

many theatrical productions, for the Broadway League, and for the

Bucks County Playhouse.

Now that the transformation of the Lincoln Center campus is complete, there is a natural inclination to look back with pride and gratitude to the friends who made this multi-year, $1.2 billion project a reality.

From the stunning architecture of the redesigned Alice Tully Hall, to the visitor services and community resources offered at the David Rubenstein Atrium and the serenity of inviting green spaces, the campus reaffirms our role as the world’s leading center for the performing arts and arts education. It also makes Lincoln Center a welcoming visitor destination.

Buoyed by critical praise and public enthusiasm for the revitalized campus, the logical question is “What’s next?” How do we continue to build on Lincoln Center's unwavering mission of providing the finest performing arts to the widest possible audience?

One way is through the expansion of arts education and community engagement, areas that have been integral parts of Lincoln Center from the very beginning. Lincoln Center Education (LCE) is moving forward with a number of new programs, some bringing more New York City children to Lincoln Center and others bringing Lincoln Center to more City schools. Arts in the Middle, for example, is a pilot program where LCE partners with six middle schools that previously had little or no arts education.We have deepened our work with educators across the U.S. and in other countries while continuing to develop programs at home on our New York campus. LCE’s arts-based approach to learning also has led to the creation of six public charter high schools in the Bronx and Brooklyn, with plans for 12 additional charter high schools citywide through our partnership with the New York City Department of Education and New Visions for Public Schools.

Creative digital initiatives increasingly connect 21st century audiences with Lincoln Center’s creative energy. This summer we launched an online video portal accessible through the Lincoln Center website that streams live performances and provides access to online videos, including interviews with Lincoln Center artists. Live From Lincoln Center, our popular public television performance series, has been expanded and is now hosted by multiple Tony Award–winner Audra McDonald, a frequent Lincoln Center performer.

The development of new business initiatives consistent with our mission is helping to reinforce Lincoln Center’s strong financial position. Lincoln Center Global, the worldwide consulting practice we established several years ago, has grown significantly.

Enthusiastic fans leapt from their seats for American Songbook’s Tom Morello: The Nightwatchman.

Live performance is at the heart of Lincoln Center, and the

2012–13 season hummed with the excitement of superb

programming on a resplendent, reimagined campus.

A highlight of the Great Performers season was the New

York premiere of John Adams’s The Gospel According to the Other Mary with the Los Angeles Philharmonic led by a fiery

Gustavo Dudamel. Keyboard enthusiasts were treated to

virtuoso recitals by Jean-Yves Thibaudet and András Schiff,

and baritone Simon Keenlyside thrilled audiences in the title

role of Berg’s opera Wozzeck.

Broadway stars Kristin Chenoweth and legendary singer/

songwriter Valerie Simpson headlined a glowing American

Songbook season in The Allen Room. This year, the program

expanded to an adventurous new series of intimate concerts

in the Stanley H. Kaplan Penthouse.

The White Light Festival explored the human body as a vehicle

for transcendence with dance premieres from London’s Akram

Khan Company and Ireland’s Fabulous Beast Dance Theatre.

The roster of global artistry included choirs from Latvia and

Georgia as well as repertoire from Mahler to Arvo Pärt. Post-

concert White Light Lounges, where concertgoers mingle and

greet the artists, returned as part of the White Light experience.

Summer at Lincoln Center began with the outdoor dance

party Midsummer Night Swing marking its 25th anniversary

of live music under the stars. For three weeks, top bands from

New York and around the world called thousands of joyful feet

to dance in Damrosch Park. Tango, salsa, and swing were all

part of the revelry, featuring Wynton Marsalis, Arturo O’Farrill,

and the wildly popular Silent Discos, where music can only be

heard through the dancers’ headphones.

The Mostly Mozart Festival’s Renée and Robert Belfer Music

Director Louis Langrée hosted a spectacular lineup of artists,

from renowned pianist Emanuel Ax to violinist and rising star

Isabelle Faust. Continuing the Festival’s broad exploration

of its namesake genius, this year spotlighted Mozart’s

influence on the music of Beethoven, surveyed contemporary

composers with the International Contemporary Ensemble,

and presented such quintessential Mozart evenings as an

inventively staged concert version of Le nozze di Figaro with

the Budapest Festival Orchestra under the baton and direction

of Iván Fischer.

Lincoln Center Festival’s extraordinary international lineup of

multidisciplinary events unfolded in six venues both on and off

campus, with 62 performances by artists and ensembles from

10 countries. In addition to director Chen Shi-Zheng’s fantastical

production of a Chinese folktale, Monkey: Journey to the West, there were concerts by Sinead O’Connor, John Zorn and the

Mongolian band Hanggai; the North American premiere of

Complicite’s theater work Shun-Kin; and the American premiere

of Stockhausen’s seminal Michaels Reise um die Erde.

In July and August, Lincoln Center Out of Doors filled our

plazas with more than 100 free performances of music, dance,

theater, and commissioned works, including a world premiere

from Mark Dendy Dance & Theater Projects, three New York

debuts as part of Festival au Désert: Caravan for Peace, and a

special week-long Kronos Quartet at 40 anniversary celebration.

An expanded Live From Lincoln Center television series on

PBS welcomed the incomparable five-time Tony-winner Audra

McDonald as its new host, reaching millions of viewers with

enhanced digital platforms. The New York Philharmonic

Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Carousel, earning Emmy®

nominations, a star-studded New Year’s Eve tribute to Marvin

Hamlisch, and legendary artists including Itzhak Perlman and

Joshua Groban were among the outstanding offerings from our

stages broadcast on Live From Lincoln Center.


“ A triumphant realization of a challenging work…For sheer productions values, Michaels Reise is arresting as anything you will see in an opera house.” —New York Times

Trumpeter Marco Blaauw (Michael) and basset horn player Nicola Jürgenson (Eve) in the North American premiere of Stockhausen’s spectacular Michaels Reise um die Erde at Lincoln Center Festival.

Performance Season


“ A remarkable production…A highlight not just of the Mostly Mozart Festival, but also of the opera season in New York.” —New York Times

Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra gave the Mostly Mozart premiere of Le nozze di Figaro in a jubilant staged concert performance.


“ Monkey: Journey to the West—a dazzling collision of Chinese folklore, spiritual instruction and ethno-digital pop music.“

—Rolling Stone

Green Lotus Maidens spun their plates in “Paradise” for the finale of Monkey: Journey to the West at Lincoln Center Festival.


“ An extraordinary piece of dance theater that manages to be both seamless entertainment and a rich insight into Irish culture.” —Irish Times

Traditional Irish music and passionate contemporary dance shared the stage in Fabulous Beast Dance Theatre’s lively production of Rian during the White Light Festival.


“ The crowd reflects the city in age, ethnicity, size, skill level, personality and fashion sense. There are singles and couples, paired-up strangers and circles of friends. Different bands attract different crowds, so each night has its own character and energy, but there’s always a miscellany, a cross-section of New York mingling to music.”

—New York Times

The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis made a joyful noise at the opening of Midsummer Night Swing.


“ Langrée sustained compelling passion. His attentive players [the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra] responded with gutsy bravura.” —Financial Times

Renée and Robert Belfer Music Director Louis Langrée led nine concerts with the Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra on the Festival’s specially-constructed stage in Avery Fisher Hall.


“ Alban Berg’s compact shocker of an opera is about cruelty and despair, but the Philharmonic's concert performance…was a celebratory event. Rare as it is to experience the score in the flesh, it’s rarer still to hear it done with such a volatile mixture of vitriol and love.” —New York Magazine

Simon Keenlyside (right) starred in the title role of Wozzeck, with Joshua Ellicott (left) as Andres and Esa-Pekka Salonen conducting the Philharmonia Orchestra for Lincoln Center’s Great Performers.


“ There’s a good reason that Panamanian singer, songwriter and bandleader Rubén Blades is one of salsa’s most durable icons: Simply put, few other performers can speak to your mind, touch your heart quite so reliably…as this brilliant performer does.”

—Time Out New York

Latin superstar and nine-time Grammy Award–winner Rubén Blades thrilled the crowds at a free Lincoln Center Out of Doors concert.

22 Lincoln Center

“ More than half a century of American social history is embodied in the warm, earthy voice of the great R&B gospel singer Mavis Staples, who appeared at The Allen Room on Thursday evening as part of Lincoln Center’s American Songbook series.”

—New York Times

At Lincoln Center’s American Songbook, Mavis Staples—one of the 100 greatest singers of all time (Rolling Stone)—rocked the house at a sold-out concert in The Allen Room.

Founded in 1975 as Lincoln Center Institute for the Arts in Education, LCE enriches the lives of students, educators, and lifelong learners through opportunities for engagement with the highest-quality arts on the stage, in the classroom, digitally, and within the community.

In three decades of offering unparalleled school and community partnerships, professional development workshops, consulting services, and its very own repertory, LCE’s work has reached more than 20 million students, teachers, school administrators, parents, community members, teaching artists, pre-service teachers, university professors, and artists in New York City and around the world. Four key LCE programs include:

Lincoln Center 27

Fun and learning combined: the Meet the Artist School Series engaged thousands of young people in specially created programs offering personal interaction with artists and live performance.

Education and community engagement are vital elements of Lincoln Center’s mission, and the 2012–13 season witnessed a significant number of new programs in these areas.

Lincoln Center Institute (LCI), our educational cornerstone, welcomed Russell Granet as its new Executive Director in 2012. Following his arrival, Lincoln Center’s many educational activities were consolidated as the Lincoln Center Education (LCE) family of programs. LCE initiatives include such projects as the Arts in the Middle pilot, which takes the arts to underserved City middle schools; an LCE-CUNY Learning Lab for teacher candidates; the establishment of a Lincoln Center Arts Teacher Award in conjunction with the New York City Department of Education; and a teaching artist certification program.

Also under the LCE umbrella is Lincoln Center Local, which took 15 performances to seven Queens libraries reaching thousands of neighborhood residents in 2012–13, and live-streamed viewing parties in 21 Queens and Brooklyn locations this past summer. The Meet the Artist School Series hosted more than 15,000 students and introduced a student artist continued partnership with The Juilliard School. Lincoln Center Institute continues its valued work in the schools with teaching artists, and is expanding its thought leadership in arts education.

The David Rubenstein Atrium visitors center greeted its 1 millionth visitor this year, and added two more programs to its wide-ranging free performance series. The first Poet-Linc saw teenagers from all five boroughs compete in a lively poetry slam. Their works were published in Lincoln Center’s first-ever poetry book, Poet-Linc. JustFilms at AtriumFlix, a monthly series of film screenings and interviews with

filmmakers like John Sayles and Mira Nair, was also launched in partnership with the Ford Foundation and presented in collaborationwith the Film Society of Lincoln Center. And weekly Target® Free Thursdays and monthly Meet the Artist Saturdays performances reached more than 22,000 people.

More free programming took place with Young Music Makers in the spring, when school ensembles from across the nation performed on our plazas, and continued with world-class Lincoln Center Out of Doors performances in July and August for hundreds of thousands of people. The Atrium’s Zucker Box Office continues to make the best of the performing arts available at discounted prices.

An exciting Lincoln Center Digital initiative took a giant step on the path to making Lincoln Center a digital destination for performing arts content. In July 2013, a video portal viewable at LincolnCenter.org/watch was launched, offering access to video interviews with and performances by renowned Lincoln Center artists. The video portal also features on-demand excerpts from our flagship Live From Lincoln Center television series and includes such live-stream events as the recent all-star Lincoln Center Out of Doors Red Hot + FELA LIVE! concert.

Lincoln Center’s Programs and Services for People with Disabilities (PSPD) remains dedicated to ensuring that the campus is accessible to guests with physical disability. In 2013, PSPD reached more than 6,000 disabled children and adults with live performances through the combined efforts of its Community Engagement and Family Passport Programs, in addition to providing nearly 120,000 Large Print and Braille programs for audiences.

On October 7 and 8, 2014, Lincoln Center’s White Light

Festival will present Sir Simon Rattle and the Berliner

Philharmoniker in Peter Sellars’s staged production of Bach’s

St. Matthew Passion, one of the masterworks of Western

sacred music. For these extraordinary performances, a stage

and seating installation modeled on the 1500-seat Berliner

Philharmoniker concert hall will be constructed inside the Park

Avenue Armory’s Drill Hall. It was the unique configuration

of the Philharmonie, where the audience surrounds the
