GOD GLIMMER - a world premiere
the Berger Performing Arts Center
1200 W. Speedway Blvd Tucson, AZ
This performance marks Harry Clark's debut as writer, musician and actor. In Harry's own words:
"In the music world we have doublers, instrumentalists who play two or more instruments on a high level. Almost always the doubling is compatible-clarinet and sax, violin and viola, that sort of thing. The most unusual doubler I ever met was a bassoonist: we were performing the Schubert Octet together. During a break he received a call and accepted a wedding jo b on harp! A bassoon-harp doubler, wonderful.
As far as I know I am the only cellist-playwright doubler.
I know of one banjoist-playwright doubler-Steve Martin. Johannes Brahms called his doubling, pianist and composer the amphibian life-life on water and land.
To date, my doubling seems mostly natural, each discipline supporting the other in tangible and intangible ways. That's a good thing."
Today's marks Harry's debut as a "tripler".
Directing the production is Troy Hollar, who will also direct the world premiere of LISZTIAN LOVES.
Troy began his working career as a stage director and producer in New York. In nearly a decade, he directed or produced more than 60 plays and live events. He managed theaters including Workhouse, the award-winning Soho Rep, and Malaparte, where he produced new plays with Artistic Director Ethan Hawke. Troy remains active in the entertainment industry, continuing to produce live events and, as as a partner in H2C Films, film and digital video content. He serves on the board of directors of the Vail Film Festival.
In 2008, Troy founded Rights Forward, an initiative that is using the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a catalyst for global engagement in learning, observing, and enforcing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its related treaties and conventions. Rights Forward brings together human rights organizations and concerned and passionate global citizens on a unified web platform to promote basic human rights and freedoms through education and advocacy.
A native Michigander, Troy holds a B.A. in history from the University of Michigan, and remains a devoted fan of Sleeping Bear Dunes, the Detroit Tigers, The Lake Effect, and the Nick Adams stories. He lives in Brooklyn, NY, and Tucson, AZ, with his wife, Katherine Pew, a writer and yoga instructor, and their children, Everett and Greta.
A pre - concert chat by Sanda Schuldmann is included in the price of the ticket and starts at 2:30p.m.

André Watts and Michael York, April 3, 2011
Two giants in today's performing arts world collaborating for the first time, and you shall be witness to this momentous event.
Amazingly enough, we still have tickets available!
We just heard Mr. Watts performing an all Liszt program at the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, and let me tell you, it was beyond formidable.
And to think that you will have this amazing opportunity to be up close and personal in the midst of this kind of artistry being created right here in the Old Pueblo, is what we call a blessing.
Please get your tickets now and do not miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity.
You will be glad you did.
