2 JULY 2017
Dear Member,
This month, we are excited to bring you the premiere of a wonderful cross-platform special: A Weekend
in Havana with Geoffrey Baer. This colorful documentary, filmed last December in Cuba, was truly a labor
of love for us. We hope you’ll feel the same after watching this eye-opening look at the history, architecture,
and culture of this “old city trying to find its place in the modern world,” a land off limits to Americans for
decades. Visit wttw.com/weekendinhavana for a mobile tour of the city – in text, sound, images, and Virtual
Reality video – that will truly illuminate this unique and mysterious place. Take
side trips to Hemingway’s Cuba, see how Cuban cigars are made, learn the secret
to the perfect mojito, explore baseball in Cuba, and view a timeline of U.S./Cuba
relations. And we give you a peek inside Geoffrey Baer’s travel journal for his
favorite photos and memories from the trip.
On WTTW11, beat the July heat with the annual favorite A Capitol Fourth, live
from Washington, DC; an array of gripping British dramas on Sunday evenings,
including Michael Palin in Remember Me; a trek through Central America with
actor/comedian Stephen Fry; a new weekly music and conversation series filmed
in our own Grainger Studio, The Experience with Dedry Jones; more delicious
installments of The Great British Baking Show; several intrepid excursions to
observe animal life in the wild, including Wild Alaska Live, a three-night event
with the Kratt Brothers; and a fun tour, with host Kira Cook, of possibly the best-known “island without cars,”
Michigan’s Mackinac Island.
This month on wttw.com’s Playlist, meet young architect Daniel de la Regata, one of Geoffrey Baer’s local
guides in Weekend in Havana, as he discusses the historic buildings of Cuba. Dive into the wild world of
nature photography with Joel Sartore, who documents near-extinct species in Rare: Creatures of the Photo
Ark. Catch up on episodes of My Mother and Other Strangers and Grantchester with weekly recaps. And relive
the thrill of Chicago’s long-defunct Riverview Park (that closed 50 years ago) with an archival Chicago Stories.
WFMT is front and center at the Grant Park Music Festival for four more live concerts this month, including
the annual Fourth of July Salute led by Christopher Bell. This special, hosted by Dave Schwan, will mark the
grand finale of a whole day of American music. We’re also featuring music from the 2017 Ravinia Festival on
Monday evenings, and from the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival on Thursdays. And the American Opera
Series brings you more productions on Saturday afternoons from Lyric Opera of Chicago, plus Verdi’s Macbeth
starring Placido Domingo from the Los Angeles Opera.
On wfmt.com, look for Facebook Live events from the Grant Park Music Festival! We’ll take you backstage
to meet the performers, out on the Great Lawn, and inside audience picnic baskets! This month, you will also
find a compendium of the best classical music to complement the cuisine at your next cookout. And as the
KAIA String Quartet completes its musical journey through Latin America on the air and online, discover one
of Argentina’s most beloved performance traditions – tango – in a video that’s fun for all ages.
Enjoy the summer and thanks for your support!
Sincerely,
Dan Schmidt

An Evening with Ken Burns and Lynn Novick: The Vietnam WarYou’re invited to an exclusive event with Ken Burns and his directing and producing partner Lynn Novick – and to be among the first to preview and discuss their
new 10-part film The Vietnam War.During this very special evening, Burns – who has said this film is “without a doubt the most ambitious project he has ever undertaken” – and Novick will discuss
the “making of,” show excerpts, and answer your questions. Their landmark work together includes Prohibition, The War, Baseball, and The Civil War, which the New York Times said cemented Burns’ place as “the most accom-plished documentary filmmaker of his generation.”
In an immersive narrative, Burns and Novick tell the epic story of the Vietnam War as it has never before been told on film. The Vietnam War features testimony from almost 100 witnesses, including many Americans who fought in the war and others who opposed it, as well as Vietnamese combatants and civilians from both the winning and losing sides. Ten years in the making, the series brings the war and the chaotic epoch it encompassed viscerally to life.
Seats for this exclusive event are going very quickly so reserve your spot right away. Visit wttw.com/events to purchase $25 tickets for $15.
WTTW is proud to partner with the Auditorium Theatre on this special event.

Join us for a free screening and discussion about The Arab Americans, the untold story of almost 200 years of the contributions those who came to the United States from the Middle East, North Africa, and the Gulf
have made to the American fabric.
This film vividly paints a portrait of the Arab-American immigrant experience through the stories of people who, like all Americans, im-migrated in pursuit of the American Dream, including Senator George Mitchell, Jamie Farr, General John Abizaid, Anthony Shadid, Helen Thomas, and more.
With historical immigration patterns as background, the film explores the personal stories of Arab Americans and how they have contributed to the collective American experience.

As an Independence Day special, he presents Esta Tierra Es Mi Tierra – the title is a riff on the famous Woody Guthrie song – to share music about the immigrants’ journeys.

More from the Milwaukee SymphonyWFMT is happy to present another season of broadcast concerts by the Milwaukee Symphony, led by music director Edo de Waart and guest conductors. The series leads off with an all-American program of Adams, William Schuman, Copland, and Gershwin. Later in the series we’ll hear a two-week Brahms symphony cycle conducted by de Waart, a Vaughan Williams-Beethoven program led by Carlos Kalmar, Orli Shaham playing Bartok’s Piano Concerto #3, concertmaster Frank Almond playing The Red Violin by John Corigliano, and Walton’s Henry V: A Shakespeare Scenario with the MSO Chorus and Milwaukee Children’s Choir. The Milwaukee Symphony performs on a regular basis throughout the state of Wisconsin, and is noted for its innovative outreach and education programs, including Meet the Music, Post-Concert Talkbacks, and MSO Stars of Tomorrow. It has presented world and U.S. premieres of works by John Adams and Philip Glass among several other contemporary composers, and was the first U.S. orchestra to offer live recordings via iTunes.

Live from Grant ParkChicago native Fawzi Haimor comes to his Grant Park Music Festival conducting debut from recent engagements with the New Zealand Symphony and the Indianapolis Symphony, in addition to having served as resident conductor of the Pittsburgh Symphony. Other engagements have taken him all over the U.S. and to Europe and Japan. Haimor was educated in the Middle East and San Francisco, and studied violin at Indiana University. His program with the Grant Park Orchestra will open with Ramal by the Syrian-American composer Kareem Roustom, which was commissioned and premiered in 2014 by Daniel Barenboim and the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra. Roustom has also written on commission for the Kronos Quartet and a number of other U.S. orchestral and chamber groups, and has been recognized for his film music with an Emmy nomination.

In the Spotlight
Stephen Hough and Carlos Kalmar at Grant ParkHough is one of the best-known concert pianists in the world, having performed on myriad major stages as a recitalist and concerto soloist. The British artist’s recordings have been honored with Grammy nominations and Gramophone awards; he’s also a composer, notably of a cello concerto for Steven Isserlis, and masses performed in London at both Westminster Abbey and Westminster Cathedral. Hough writes and blogs about both music and theology, and teaches at conservatories in London and Manchester. (And he’s come out in favor of short concerts, saying that all classical performances should be 80 minutes or less.) Hough will return to the Grant Park Music Festival to play Brahms’ Piano Concerto #1 under the baton of Carlos Kalmar. We think of Kalmar as the artistic director and principal conductor of the GPMF, a musician the city welcomes back each summer; he’s also in his 14th season as music director of the Oregon Symphony, with which he’s made Grammy-nominated recordings and appeared on tour in 2011 at Carnegie Hall as part of the Spring for Music Festival. Kalmar also made recent debuts as a guest conductor with the Boston Symphony, San Francisco Symphony, and Chicago Symphony. Paired with Brahms concerto at Grant Park will be Zoltan Kodaly’s Dances of Galanta and some Brahms Hungarian Dances.

Los Angeles OperaWFMT is pleased to present a five-week series of performances from the Los Angeles Opera, starting in late July. The company is led by general director Placido Domingo and music director James Conlon. Domingo, for years one of the world’s leading operatic tenors, has turned in recent seasons to baritone roles; his interpretation of the title role of Verdi’s Macbeth leads off the LA series. He’s joined by soprano Ekaterina Semenchuk as Lady Macbeth and baritone Ildebrando D’Arcangelo as Banquo, with Conlon conducting. Future broadcasts will feature Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffmann with Vittorio Grigolo in the title role, and from the company’s 2015 season, a Figaro Trilogy: The Barber of Seville, The Marriage of Figaro, and by John Corigliano, The Ghosts of Versailles.
