Acoustic Music Series presents: South Asian Classical Music Society of Chicago Livestream 

Dates Available: October 9 - October 11, 2022

Live Showtime: 6PM on October 9

About: 

South Asian Classical Music Society of Chicago debuts at Epiphany while commencing its tenth season presenting Hindustani and Carnatic classical and light classical music and featuring top acts by visiting artists as well as fine local performers. In collaboration with local teachers, SACMS also puts on annual programs of student musicians of these sparkling and highly developed genres. In honor of the 2022 Year of Chicago Dance, today’s program at Epiphany also features classical Indian dance.

Oindrila Roy Mallick is a well-known dancer among the younger generation of Bharatanatyam dancers. Trained initially under late Guru K. P.P Thampi from the age of five. Oindrila honed her dance skills further under Legendary Guru Khagendra Nath Barman, one of the most senior disciples of Guru Rukmini Devi Arundale, Founder of unique “Kalakshetra” Style (Bharataatyam).From 2011 she started leaning under the guidance of Guru Abhoy Pal of kalamandalam Style. So Oindrla's dance reflects the cumulative richness of her learning experience. Her passion remains deeply rooted in classical dance. As a Bharatnatyam dancer Oindrila’s Hallmark remains in her ability to captivate her audience by bringing forth the inherent beauty and contemporaneity of the ancient genre.

Bansuri (keyless bamboo north Indian transverse flute) player, Lyon Leifer, learned initially in a five-year residency in India under master musician and flutemaker, Devendra Murdeshwar, and subsequently as feasible until the master’s passing in 2000. Encouraged by his Guruji to perform raga music at an early date, Lyon’s performances draw rave reviews and requests to perform in numerous venues. The Indian Express has called him “One of the world’s leading bansuri exponents.”

Indranil Mallick, tabla, a leading Kolkata-based player among the maturing set and prominent disciple of Pt. Swapan Chaudhury, is already well-known as both accompanist and soloist. He is a winner of multiple awards and appears at major conferences in India and locations all around Europe and North America.

SACMS gratefully acknowledges support for this program of both Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events and the Illinois Arts Council Agency.

TRIODA:

During famous TV show “The X Factor” everyone could see very creative and talented music band Trioda. They represented themselves from the best side during this show. Boys showed there perfect voice trio in new Ukrainian-patriotic music. People saw and wish that these voices should introduce our country on international stages. During the Revolution of Dignity band presented their own song “Stand up, Ukraine”. This patriotic song people heard on Independence Square and on all national radio stations. Group members always support Ukrainian nation. Their songs full of love to their country, hope to have a peace, and support to everyone. In 2014 when the war began Trioda started to give concerts on front line for our military. On that time people were collected money for army. Boys wasn’t on the side too,so they provided volunteer activity. Trioda band gives many concerts till this day and helps military like that. In 2016 band did their first videoclip and presented it to everyone on M2 music Chanel. Shortly country saw first album “The soul of Ukrainian nation”. This music album boys dedicated to diaspora that helps military all the time. We can say that Trioda is etno-pop group. But musicians emphasize that their art is music of mood and music of soul. Second CD “Your world” is big,assured and courageous step ahead. Boys gave many energies to make new music form. That’s why they grew up very professionally. Musicians think that exactly that kind and style of music characterize them and their age. They are three young boys and they want to sing more light music. Trioda also has students favorite song “Student life” that was written during students period. Also song “Winter”, “Your world”, “Money”, “Kitten” are always making people’s mood better. Once, during Christmas time, when band had volunteer tour, boys were giving concerts in ancient church. It was unforgettable because beautiful voices that sounded perfect they combined with acoustic guitar. Just then Trioda felt new idea for project “At home on Christmas”. That’s why Trioda had a tour to Italy, Spain, Poland, Germany. In 2019-2020 band presented video-tale “At home on Christmas”. There are five Christmas songs in modern rearranging that are combine with beautiful video scene with Ukrainian style life similar that we have in every house.

Finally, I can say that Trioda is very interesting and popular band that has big professional experience and doesn’t stop on their music development.

About: 

The Ursa Ensemble will reunite after a Pandemic-long hiatus for a concert benefiting abortion rights groups.  All of the ensemble’s profit from this event will be donated to groups like the Midwest Access Coalition and the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice.  In the wake of Roe V. Wade, we are excited to use our music-making to support healthcare for all.

Rather than determining a concert order in advance, we are leaving this program up to chance…kinda like what happens when you set a playlist to “shuffle”.  Thus, we are having a Shuffle Concert!  However, we are leaving the concert order in the hands of our audience.  You, the listeners, get to choose what comes next!  Isn’t it great to have a choice?  We will be raffling the opportunity to call the next tune.  Each general admission ticket comes with 10 raffle tickets.  You can purchase additional tickets for $1 each.  If your number is called, you pick the next selection.

All works on this program have been composed by Women Composers.  Some are living, some are dead, and some are jazz composers!  This is an evening to celebrate the strides women have made in a field where they have historically been silenced or excluded. 

Ursa Ensemble members will be joined by a stunning line-up of our friends!  Joining us as guest artists will be:  Pianists Rick Ferguson, Jonathan Hannau, Marianne Parker, and Lara Driscoll; Vocalists Callandra Youngleson and Katherine Petersen, and reed-players Matt Shevitz and Richard Brasseale!

Acoustic Music Series presents: Ursa Ensemble and Friends: Fewer Dahlias 3.0 Livestream 

Dates Available: October 16 - October 18, 2022

Live Showtime: 7PM on October 16

About: 

The Ursa Ensemble is a Chicago-based chamber music ensemble that seeks to present uncommon music to our audiences in unique ways, in unconventional places, and with individual interpretations.  The Ursa ensemble has performed at a variety of locations across the Midwest including Constellation Chicago, Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park, The Green Mill Jazz Lounge, DePaul University School of Music, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Indiana University South Bend, the DANK Haus, Tavern of Fine Arts, The Musical Offering, Uncommon Ground, PianoForte Studios, and the Narloch Piano Studio.  They have been highlighted in festivals such as Chicago Artists Month, The Ravenswood Art Walk, Narlochpolooza, and the Thirsty Ears Festival.  For the 2019-2020 season, Ursa Ensemble has the honor of being Ensemble in Residence at the Musical Offering in Evanston, Illinois. 

Ursa Ensemble members are fiercely dedicated to making complex music less intimidating, but still deeply moving, to the uninitiated listener.  Their flagship Collaboration in Concert (CIC) series gives listeners the opportunity to create an art piece under the tutelage of a professional painter, poet, author, photographer, or other artist, while gaining direction from the ensemble’s live music. CIC events have led the Ursas into all sorts of arenas, allowing them to work with and perform for an extremely diverse audience: elementary school students at Catalyst Circle Rock Charter School in Chicago’s low-income, Austin neighborhood; college students at Harold Washington College in Chicago’s Loop; young writers-in-the-making at 826CHI; even trendy bar-hoppers at the Tavern of Fine Arts in St. Louis.   Past CIC events have involved collaborations with artists in a wide range of expertises, including photographer Michael Schoeneweis, author Michael San Gabino, printmaker Sarah Adams, painter Lewis Achenbach, and painter Melanie Brown.

With the instrumentation of Clarinet, Violin, and Cello, Ursa Ensemble enjoys exploring and arranging a vast repertoire spanning thousands of years, from the Renaissance to present day. The Ursa Ensemble is also committed to furthering the impact and longevity of classical music by actively commissioning and performing new works.  They have premiered works by composers such as Pierce Gradone, Jonathan Hannau, Jordan Jenkins, and Jeff Kowalkowski, all of which were written specifically for the ensemble.

The Ursa Ensemble consists of some of the best young musicians in the Chicago area, all of whom are dedicated performers and artist-teachers. Praised for her “gleaming tone and Hollywood glamor,” violinist Rachel Brown is the Associate Principal Second Violin of the South Bend Symphony Orchestra, and has given over a dozen world premieres of contemporary solo and ensemble works.  She is the Chair of the Music Department at the Chicago Academy for the Arts, and also teaches at The Musical Offering.  Described as “alluring” by the Wall Street Journal, cellist Veronica Nettles focuses on performance in classical chamber music (she was a founding member of the Kaia String quartet) and world music collaborations (she is a member of a Cuban Charangas ensemble).  Also, she  maintains a private studio at the DePaul University Community Music Division.  Joe Sanchez, clarinetist, is a founding member of the Vandoren Sponsored Lake Effect Clarinet Quartet, and he can be heard regularly with a cross continental spread of orchestras, ranging from Las Vegas to Kalamazoo!

About: 

From being nearly killed in a car accident that left him paralyzed for almost a year; to collaborating with Wiz Khalifa, garnering millions of views, and touring across the country independently; Torrian Ball shows us that you can truly do anything you put your mind to, no matter what cards you’re dealt.

Torrian Ball is fearless in his pursuit to push the limits of creative expression. His honest lyricism combined with intoxicating delivery creates songs that hit with razor sharp precision, empowering women, discussing relationships, and various other subjects.

The Midwest MC entered the hip-hop game at the young age of 14 when he was discovered by Chicago Hip Hop legend, Twista, who offered him a spot on his tour after witnessing him rap during a contest that was being held between opening acts at one of his shows. But after a tragic car accident at age 16, Torrian was paralyzed for almost a year, which left him battling depression and unsure of where his life was headed. Once he recovered, he used this setback to fuel his hustle toward chasing his dreams in the entertainment industry and making a full comeback.

His debut single “Wings” was released in 2014 and featured the international Taylor Gang General, Wiz Khalifa. This opened up many doors and allowed him to garner international attention.

In 2015 he headlined his first Positive Vibes tour throughout the midwest. Torrian routed, booked, and ran the entire tour by himself, selling out the hometown show entirely. During this same time period, he suffered a tremendous amount of loss of loved ones close to him. With the passing of his grandfather to diabetes, his little brother to a fatal car accident, and his mother to an overdose, he has endured pain and loss that would cause most to shut down entirely.

While battling depression, he chose to make major changes in his life. He chose to begin to share his story with his fans as a means to uplift and empower them.

In 2018 he went on to release his first project “Vibes Don’t Lie” - the lead single “Jungle” is now his most streamed song to date. Since then, he’s collaborated with a slew of notable artists including Do or Die, Saba, GLC, and Grammy nominated producers Da Internz. He has performed hundreds of shows across the country, from hitting the stage at SXSW, to Vitamin Water/Fader Magazine’s Uncapped Live Series, to opening for artists such as 2 Chainz, T-Pain, Chief Keef, Twista, Chance The Rapper, Lil Durk, Omarion, Trina, Common, and many more.

Now, with 189K+ monthly listeners, multiple viral videos, and a diehard tribe of fans that proudly go by “the vibe tribe”, Torrian has only just begun to hit the milestones he’s after.

Freddie Dixon is the embodiment of the Chicago Blues. The 2nd son of the world-famous 7th Son, Willie Dixon, Freddie has been surrounded by the Blues since the day he was born. His father is a blues legend as a song writer, producer, and musician. Willie was at the helm at Chess Records for many of the sides cut in the 1950’s, 1960’s and into the 1970’s.

About: 

Barry And The Fountains is an eclectic Alternative Soul act with Deep Soul roots, a distinct literary voice, and a haunting, subtle edge. Brought together in 2017 by Barry Jean Fontenot, a Louisiana-born singer-songwriter and community organizer, the group quickly became a fixture of the Chicago DIY scene, and developed a reputation for their raw, soulful sound, calling to mind such artists as Charles Bradley and Otis Redding, as well as the calm boldness of their lyrical style. From R&B adaptations of Romantic poems to Rock Operas about Sumerian legends, Barry And The Fountains don’t mess around when it comes to synthesizing their diverse influences into a style all their own.
