Song from the Uproar: An Interview with Missy Mazzoli and Royce Vavrek.
Abigail Fischer and Now Ensemble and Aaron Roche performed SFTU at Le Poisson Rouge, Dec 2012
Song from the Uproar originally premiered at The Kitchen in Feb 2012 and was reprised at Le Poisson Rouge this past December with the NOW Ensemble and Abigail Fischer. Aaron Roche also performed and video was shown from Stephen Taylor. The narrative of SFTU revolves around Isabelle Eberhardt, a gender defying Swiss explorer and journalist who kept extensive diaries of her extraordinary lifestyle in the 1800s. In the early 1900s she moved to Algeria where she wore the garb of men and called herself, Si Mahmoud Essadi. She married an Algerian solider, and was eventually killed by a flood in 1904, after an early assassination attempt. Creator Missy Mazzoli and librettist Royce Vavrek were interviewed about the project below.

The 22 Playlist #4 (The Wax and The Wane), October 12th, 2012.

It’s that time of year for the annual sky parade of seasons. That old October moon, the waltz of the crisping breeze, the knits come out, the land shells over. There is a quiet, a spark of rebellion, and finally the familiar settling in. This playlist, we focus on the subduing of the season, the last breath of fall and both the goodness and the bad that the cold weather brings. We take to the skies with Sky-Pony and Gram Rabbit, ride the rails with Rusty Belle, Jef Brown, and Christopher Paul Stelling. We bundle up with June Humor, take in the golden hour with Matt Alber, dance with Inez Lightfoot, lay it down with the Dive Bar Dukes, and ponder the heavens with Jacob Garchik.
