ABOUT YUNGCHEN LHAMO
Signed to Peter Gabriel’s Real World Records in 1996, World-acclaimed, award-winning Yungchen Lhamo has sung in more than 80 countries on all five continents. In June, she was presented with the prestigious 2026 Distinguished Artist Award by her home city of Kingston, New York. She has previously won the Australian Recording Industry Award for ‘Best World Music Album’ and Songlines ‘Best Asia &amp; Pacific Album’ in the UK 2025 (<a href="https://www.yungchenlhamo.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.yungchenlhamo.com</a>).

ABOUT ONE DROP OF KINDNESS
The One Drop of Kindness Foundation was created by Yungchen Lhamo as a non-profit foundation in 2004. Through carefully selected projects, the Foundation seeks to bring specific material support and healing inspiration to distressed communities within the USA and in other countries (<a href="https://www.onedropofkindness.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.onedropofkindness.org</a>).

ABOUT LA MAMA
La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club is dedicated to the artist and all aspects of the theatre. La MaMa's 65th Season, ONENESS, focuses on creating solidarity and community, exploring ways to build connections for cross-sector coalition and invites artists, activists, organizers and community members into the creative process. We build audiences that are integral to the creative process. Our local and global community members who gather in our physical, digital, and hybrid spaces to see new work, are often the first audience for that work. La MaMa believes art is a force for change.


QUOTES ABOUT YUNGCHEN’S WORK
“Yungchen sings like an unearthly creature. Her voice has the power to stop time and makes everything else in the world fall away. Her voice transports you.” – Natalie Merchant

“Yungchen joined our Real World Records label in 1996. The label was founded in 1989 to provide gifted musicians from around the world with access to state-of-the-art recording facilities, with the aim of bringing the music of the world to the world. We were lucky to work with Yungchen’s wonderful voice and music, which encapsulate the spirit, understanding and compassion of Tibetan culture.” – Peter Gabriel

“Her voice is astonishing in range, rich in vibration, and filled with a rare kind of beauty that uplifts, restores, and stays with you long after the last note. Lhamo’s seventh album, One Drop of Kindness, is a glorious reminder and golden encouragement for us to do precisely that.” – Neal Copperman, AMP Concerts

“Lhamo’s voice is not only beautiful, but strong. Her phrasing, control and depth of emotion are unsurpassed. This, combined with her purity and poignancy, will enchant and impress any listener." - Leslie Holmes, Denver Advocate

“I truly believe that voice has a vibrational energy to connect, empower, heal, and transform all human beings." - Yungchen Lhamo

92NY

Home — the place where you were held, and where you return to begin again. With The Good News Suite, Johnnie Cruise Mercer draws on his upbringing in the Black Baptist church to create a work rooted in memory, ritual, and shared experience. Inspired by Bible scriptures passed down through childhood, these choreographies are crafted to guide communities through grief, and toward the possibility of release.
No two performances are the same. The Good News Suite shifts in response to each space and the people who gather there, taking shape as both performance and communal experience. At 92NY, Mercer premieres The Unforced Rhythms of Grace, a captivating new ensemble work for Black movement and vocal artists, grounded in contemporary gospel music and built from deeply embodied testimony, rhythm, and collective energy. Each night will feature guest artists from across New York’s Black dance community.
Mercer also shares a new version of his ever-evolving solo work, Mercies of a Butterfly.
A former 92NY Harkness Artist in Residence and 2022 Mainstage Artist, Mercer returns home to the stage where so many of the great artists of American modern dance found a sense of belonging while they expanded what dance can hold, and who it is for. The experiences he creates are immersive and shared, erasing the borders between the performers and audiences; experiences Dance Enthusiast describes as “tenderly moving and immensely rewarding … leaving the theater feeling full, and above all, revived.”
This performance is part of the Harkness Mainstage Series’ Home season, exploring how dance maps the shifting terrain of home, identity, and belonging, and the borders – visible and invisible – that shape us.

Seussical™ – Theatre Young Audiences is a fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza! Tony-winners, Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty have lovingly brought to life all of our favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, lazy Mayzie and a little boy with a big imagination – Jojo.
The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many “thinks.” Horton faces a double challenge – not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant.
Music by STEPHEN FLAHERTY Lyrics by LYNN AHRENS Book by LYNN AHRENS and STEPHEN FLAHERTY Co-Conceived by LYNN AHRENS, STEPHEN FLAHERTY, and ERIC IDLE Based on the Works of DR. SEUSS Directed and Choreographed by Megan Doyle
Seussical™ – Theatre Young Audiences is recommended for ages 6 and older, with a run time of 75 minutes, no intermission.
Seussical™ – Theatre Young Audiences is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. <a href="https://www.mtishows.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">www.mtishows.com</a>

Zankel Hall

Experience a remarkable musical rediscovery at Carnegie Hall.
On Thursday, November 12 at 7:30 PM, Jason Tramm and the MidAtlantic Philharmonic Orchestra present the world premiere of Teodor Doré’s new orchestration of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Suite in D Minor.
Composed in 1891 while Rachmaninoff was a student at the Moscow Conservatory, the Suite survives through a piano manuscript; its original orchestral score remains missing. Doré’s new orchestration, created with the endorsement of the Rachmaninoff family, offers a rare opportunity to hear this early work brought to life by a full orchestra.
Presented by Renaissance-21, the evening celebrates the movement’s American launch with a program combining classical favorites and contemporary premieres, including Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1 and Rachmaninoff’s beloved Vocalise.
Tramm returns for his third Carnegie Hall performance, joined by guest conductor Olsi Qinami and an international roster of featured artists.
Join us for an evening of musical discovery in Zankel Hall.
