SUMMARY:Steve Lands: Rearranging the Planets
DESCRIPTION:Creative Assembly Cohort member Steve Lands presents Rearranging the Planets\, a musical performance reinterpreting composer Gustav Holst’s influential orchestral suite The Planets. \nWith his original composition\, which premiered at NOMA in February\, Lands uses Holst’s work as a jumping off point to explore the varied relationships civilizations have had to the heavens over time. While Holst structured his suite—which premiered at the Queen’s Hall in London in 1918—around the Solar System and its Greco-Roman mythological namesakes\, Rearranging the Planets casts a broader net to consider how societies around the world have looked to the stars. In the words of planetary scientist Carl Sagan\, “We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.” \nFeaturing Shea Pierre; Alfred Jordan\, Jr.; Xavier Molina; Max Moran; John Maestas; Amari Ansari; Rex Gregory; and Amber Matthews. With additional credits to Francis Wong\, Camille Lenain\, Meghan Stewart\, and Amina Scott. \nPerformances take place in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts on Friday\, September 9\, and Saturday\, September 10\, at 8 pm. \nTickets are $30 | $25 for members \nBuy Tickets \n  \n\n\nPerformance Credits and Performer Bios\n\n\n\n\nSteve Lands\nHailing from the city of Baton Rouge\, Louisiana\, Steve Lands has been swaying stages\, clubs\, bars\, museums\, houses-of-worship\, and studios the world over for more than a decade now. He’s got the kind of skill that can only be gained from working with great artists from all walks of life. His experience ranges from shows with R&B/gospel Grammy winner PJ Morton; doing festivals with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band; and tours through Europe with Swiss pianist and composer Florian Favre to studio sessions with the Black Keys; jamming in DC with Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters; playing in big bands with Ellis\, Jason\, Branford\, and Delfeayo Marsalis; and doing a tribute to David Bowie with Arcade Fire. Courage and care are his motivations for music and he’s got more than enough of both to give you a sonic fantasy.\n\n\n\n\nShea Pierre\nA native of New Orleans\, Louisiana\, Shea Pierre started his musical journey at the age of 4. He joined his family’s gospel group\, the Williams Sisters\, and began playing for various churches in the New Orleans area. He later attended the prestigious New Orleans Center of Creative Arts\, where he studied with Michael Pellera\, Chris Severin\, Ellis Marsalis\, and Jason Marsalis. While in high school\, he toured parts of South Africa with the Batiste Brothers Band from New Orleans. Shea is a 2014 graduate of Oberlin Conservatory of Music\, where he studied jazz piano with Dan Wall. He continues to travel and engage in different projects throughout the Midwest.\n\n\n\n\nAlfred Jordan Jr.\nBorn in New Orleans in 1993\, Alfred Jordan Jr.’s parents noticed the gift that was on their son. Growing up in church\, gospel music played a huge part in molding him as a drummer. Alfred’s skill sprouted\, awarding him a full scholarship to attend Berklee College of Music graduating with a B.A. Alfred’s love for music turned into his profession\, landing his gig as the current drummer for Big Sam’s Funky Nation and has also been fortunate to work with Donald Harrison\, Christian Scott\, Nicholas Payton\, Kent Jordan as well as his collective projects NwaSoul Project and Bignatiouss. Alfred is forever grateful knowing this is “for the love of music.”\n\n\n\n\nXavier Molina\nWe have watched Xavier Molina grow as an artist since 2006 when he first picked up the trumpet. Xavier has blossomed into a singer/songwriter\, drummer and trumpeter with a heart dedicated to making great music. Xavier has played with several independent bands in the New Orleans\, Atlanta and Alabama areas\, and never ceases to amaze the audiences anywhere.\n\n\n\n\nMax Moran\nMax Moran is a Louisiana born musician and composer who has become a first-call bassist across several genres in New Orleans’ thriving music scene.

Performing since the age of thirteen\, Max Moran spent over ten years as the bassist of jazz master Donald Harrison and has also shared the stage with artists such as Davell Crawford\, Leo Nocentelli (The Meters)\, Bernie Worrell (Parliament/ Funkadelic)\, and Grammy nominees Christian Scott and Jamison Ross.\n\n\n\n\nJohn Maestas\nGuitarist John Maestas was born in Albuquerque\, New Mexico and is now based in New Orleans. He started his career first as a sideman to many inspiring contemporary young artists performing original music\, while also accompanying and learning from New Orleans legacy artists who keep the traditions of their city’s music alive and thriving. He has become known as a versatile music producer working in studios writing\, recording & performing songs for world-class artists including Christian Scott\, Nicholas Payton\, Jamison Ross\, Wendell Brunious\, MonoNeon\, John “Papa” Gros\, Elzhi\, Nesby Phips\, Fiend and many others. In 2016 he co founded the independent record label Bubble Bath Records with 3 other friends that helps to educate\, elevate & empower over twenty young artists who need support in navigating the music industry. “The Dream Catcher”\, the debut album from Maestas’ alt-rock band Juan Tigre\, is music inspired by the iconic high desert imagery of New Mexico and imbued with the expansive folklore of the Southwest.\n\n\n\n\nAmari Ansari\nAmari Ansari brings a fresh voice to the saxophone. The son of a gospel pianist\, the Alabama native credits his earliest interest in music to southern gospel and the late Alabama jazz educator Dr. Frank Adams Sr. Upon moving to New Orleans in 2009\, he was the recipient of the University of New Orleans’ Ellis Marsalis Jazz Scholarship where he would go on to graduate with a Master’s Degree in Music. This introduction to the Marsalis family led him to meet NEA Jazz Master Delfeayo Marsalis\, eventually becoming a long time member of the Marsalis led band the Uptown Jazz Orchestra. With his feature on Marsalis’ 2019 release\, Jazz Party \, Downbeat Magazine called Amari’s style\, “Hank Crawford meets Maceo Parker.”\n\n\n\n\nFrancis Wong\nFrancis Wong grew up in the New Orleans area and escaped into art from a young age. He attended the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts and attended the University of New Orleans studying fine art and film. Hurricane Katrina interrupted his college education but educated him on so much more in life. His work is influenced by the magical realness of life in New Orleans and Southeastern Louisiana. Through mixed media paintings\, music and video\,he uses art to help heal ancestral trauma and PTSD. His work is a unique hybrid of his Chinese heritage and his Southern and American upbringing.  Francis has Exhibited all over Louisiana\, NYC\, and Oakland\, California.\n\n\n\n\nCamille Lenain\nCamille Farrah Lenain is a French-Algerian documentary and portrait photographer who grew up in Paris\, studied Photography at l’ESA in Brussels and at ICP in New York City (virtual).

Born in San Pedro Sula\, Ríos began to study violin at the age of seven\, and he continued his musical studies at the Victor Lopez School of Music and Tiradientes College. He is a graduate of Francisco Morazon University in music. He has recorded three albums and performed as a soloist and with an orchestra around the world.

Bodoma was born in La Ceiba\, and at the age of thirteen\, he traveled to San Pedro Sula to study. He became interested in Garifuna cultural activities and began composing in the rhythms and style of Garifuna cultural traditions. In 2007\, he met Latin jazz composer Patrice Fisher\, and they started an ongoing collaboration involving Honduran\, Garifuna\, and New Orleans-based musicians. \nPatrice Fisher and Arpa\nLatin jazz harpist Patrice Fisher favors the music of Brazil and Cuba\, saying that\, not only is the harp “comfortable” harmonically with the music\, but that she herself is drawn to the rhythmic complexities and syncopations: “that’s what makes you want to dance.” Fisher is a graduate of Tulane University and the University of New Orleans. She lives in New Orleans\, where she has been composing and performing since the 1980s. She has also appeared at local and international jazz festivals with her group Arpa\, in locations such as Germany\, Brazil\, Mexico\, and Guatemala. \nMariachi Jalisco\nEl Mariachi Jalisco was started in Baton Rouge in 2010 as the first mariachi group in the state of Louisiana. Eider Martinez and other group members decided to revive the Mariachi Jalisco Havana Cuba\, a musical group that they had in their native Cuba. All the members have over ten years of experience in this genre of traditional Mexican music and are graduates of various musical conservatories. They have performed ten times at the International Mariachi Festival in Guadalajara\, and made various television appearances which have been broadcast throughout Latin America and the United States. \nMexico Y Sus Raíces\nMexico Y Sus Raíces is a Mexican folkloric dance group that shows the beauty of local dances in Jalisco\, Mexico\, through music and colorful mariachi costumes. \n\nAbout Ecos Latinos\nEcos Latinos is a monthly performance series featuring Hispanic musicians\, poets\, dancers\, and visual artists—both local and international—at schools\, hospitals\, libraries\, and festivals in Louisiana.

S. Eliot\, and Ezra Pound as well as artists Pablo Picasso\, Henri Matisse\, and Man Ray\, and speaks of the twilight of the Paris belle epoque. \n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

Isabel Wilkerson compares this epic migration to the migrations of other peoples in history. With stunning historical detail\, she tells this story through the lives of three unique individuals: Ida Mae Gladney\, who in 1937 left sharecropping and prejudice in Mississippi for Chicago\, where she achieved quiet blue-collar success; sharp and quick-tempered George Starling\, who in 1945 fled Florida for Harlem\, where he endangered his job fighting for civil rights; and Robert Foster\, who left Louisiana in 1953 to pursue a medical career\, and became the personal physician to Ray Charles. \nWilkerson brilliantly captures their first treacherous and exhausting cross-country trips by car and train\, and how they changed the cities with southern food\, faith\, and culture. Both a riveting microcosm and a major assessment\, The Warmth of Other Suns is a superb account of an “unrecognized immigration” within our own land. \n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

SUMMARY:Virtual Book Club Discussion: The Warmth of Other Suns
DESCRIPTION:The NOMA Book Club meets monthly to discuss fiction and nonfiction books related to art in NOMA’s collection and exhibitions. It is an informal group open to anyone on a month-to-month basis. You do not have to attend every meeting or read every book! In addition to monthly virtual book discussions\, the Book Club meets periodically in person for curatorial programs related to the book selections. \nBooks are selected in advance and planned for the entire year according to the exhibition schedule. Participants are expected to procure their own copy of the selected titles. Most of the titles are available for purchase in store at the NOMA Museum Shop. \nFor more information on the NOMA Book Club please contact NOMA’s Curator of Education\, Tracy Kennan\, at tkennan@noma.org or (504) 658-4113. \nRegister Now \nOctober 2022\nVirtual Book Discussion Group | Thursday\, October 27\, 12 PM\n\n\n\nThe Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America’s Great Migration by Isabel Wilkerson\n2010\, Random House\, ISBN: 978-0679444329 \nFrom 1915 to 1970\, this exodus of almost six million people changed the face of America. Isabel Wilkerson compares this epic migration to the migrations of other peoples in history. With stunning historical detail\, she tells this story through the lives of three unique individuals: Ida Mae Gladney\, who in 1937 left sharecropping and prejudice in Mississippi for Chicago\, where she achieved quiet blue-collar success; sharp and quick-tempered George Starling\, who in 1945 fled Florida for Harlem\, where he endangered his job fighting for civil rights; and Robert Foster\, who left Louisiana in 1953 to pursue a medical career\, and became the personal physician to Ray Charles. \nWilkerson brilliantly captures their first treacherous and exhausting cross-country trips by car and train\, and how they changed the cities with southern food\, faith\, and culture. Both a riveting microcosm and a major assessment\, The Warmth of Other Suns is a superb account of an “unrecognized immigration” within our own land. \n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

SUMMARY:Free Screening: City of a Million Dreams
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, November 20\, in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts for a screening of the acclaimed documentary City of a Million Dreams. The film\, based on the book of the same name by Jason Berry\, explores New Orleans’s jazz funerals and second lines. \nFollowing the film screening\, attendees will have the opportunity to hear from the filmmakers and ask questions during a panel discussion. \nFree with museum admission. \nGet Tickets Now \n\nAbout the Film\nFamous the world over\, jazz funerals have origins shrouded in mystery. Filmed over twenty-two years\, City of a Million Dreams explores race relations at a tearing time in American society. Burial traditions train a lens on the unique and resilient culture of New Orleans. City of a Million Dreams draws from the 2018 book of the same title by Jason Berry. \nDeb Cotton\, an African American and observant Jew\, leaves “hard-hearted Hollywood” for New Orleans\, and becomes a chronicler of the parading clubs spawned by 19th century burial societies. Her zeal for the city grows as she becomes a blogger for Gambit Weekly\, adopting the handle “Big Red Cotton.” As Deb explores her adopted culture\, Dr. Michael White\, a prolific clarinetist and New Orleans native\, plays “the widow’s wail” on his clarinet\, a cry of lamentation in the funeral marches. \nWhite’s transcendent music also includes joyous peals for the soul’s cutting-loose\, which happens when the band leaves the cemetery\, followed by dancers in what New Orleanians call “the second line.” Risen in the ranks of brass bands\, White\, too\, is on a journey of self-discovery\, seeking clues about his ancestor who played at the dawn of jazz. White says of jazz funerals: “For someone dealing with American racism and trying to figure out your place in this life…you can be transformed into another world that really sets you free.” \nLearn More \n\n                           \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The City of New Orleans; First Horizon; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

In reflections that range from the creation of Turtle Island to the forces that threaten its flourishing today\, she circles toward a central argument: that the awakening of ecological consciousness requires the acknowledgment and celebration of our reciprocal relationship with the rest of the living world. For only when we can hear the languages of other beings will we be capable of understanding the generosity of the earth\, and learn to give our own gifts in return. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.
