Meow Meow is a postmodern cabaret “phenomenon … an international siren, a comedienne extraordinaire, and a creator of beautiful mayhem” (Broadway World). As part of Carnegie Hall’s Fall of the Weimar Republic festival, she presents a thought-provoking and wildly entertaining salute to the Republic’s notable “wild women”—both fictional and real—including vamps and “new women,” sirens and “poor girls,” Anita Berber, Lotte Lenya, Valeska Gert, Blandine Ebinger, Margo Lion, Claire Waldoff, Marlene Dietrich, and more. Like Meow Meow, these were women of many talents—composers, singers, dancers, poets, actors, sociopolitical influencers, and revolutionaries. In this cabaret-style program, Meow Meow channels the era’s urgent blend of art, entertainment, and winking social commentary.

Experience the New York premiere of Ted Hearne’s Dorothea, a Carnegie Hall co-commissioned song cycle by an artist “among the most adventurous creative forces in contemporary music today” (The Nation). These direct and poignant songs color the pathos-ridden, darkly funny work of poet Dorothea Lasky with rhapsodic textures, a synth-pop veneer, and charismatic duets with Hearne and acclaimed vocalist and electronic artist Eliza Bagg.

Musical Journalism: Continuing a Legacy through the Flute.
This is a concert inspired by Adam W. Sadberry’s late grandfather and unsung hero of the Civil Rights Movement, L. Alex Wilson. Wilson’s work as an editor and journalist changed the world through covering pivotal Civil Rights events including the lynching of Emmett Till, the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the desegregation of Central High School by the Little Rock 9, the last of which played a part in Wilson’s transformation into a martyr. In this concert, Adam intertwines articles that he collected from the archives of the Tri-State Defender, Wilson’s newspaper in Memphis, TN, with music and dance that contextualizes the humanity and inhumanity of the stories.
