Both\nGrammy-nominated artists\, pianist Alfredo Rodríguez and percussionist\nPedrito Martinez are best known for their individual work\, but began\nworking together on Alfredo’s 2012 album Invasion Parade. Since that\ninitial recording sess ion\, these Cuban jazz musicians have occasionally\nperformed together as a duo\, leaving audiences mesmerized by their fearless\nand virtuosic play ing. Each artist brings a different approach to the\ncollaboration. A prot égé of Quincy Jones\, Alfredo was schooled in the\nrigorous classical co nservatories of Havana. His artistry is informed as\nmuch by Bach and Stra vinsky as it is by his Afro Cuban and jazz roots.\nPedrito’s musical tra ining came from the streets of the Cayo Hueso\nneighborhood of Old Havana. He has performed with Sting\, Paul Simon and\nWynton Marsalis. Together t hese two master musicians will take the audience\nto a level of jazz the l ikes of which has never been seen in Sun\nValley.
In additi on to contributions from Center members we\nwould like to acknowledge the generosity of this seasons sponsors Scott\nMiley Roofing / Scott Miley and Jane Rosen and our housing sponsor\, Wood\nRiver Inn. Also thanks to Joyc e Friedman whose gift supporting the in\nschool residencies what made in m emory of Norman Friedman and Robin Leavitt\nand Terry Friedlander for gene rously underwriting tickets for Blaine County\nstudents.

A work of\nresurrected living history\, Dawson City: Frozen Time is transportive in a\nmanner fe w films—non-fiction or otherwise—achieve. Director Bill\nMorrison uses clips from hundreds of highly combustible nitrate\nsilent-movie reels tha t were unearthed in the Yukon River outpost of Dawson\nCity in 1978\, as w ell as archival photos and on-screen text\, to present a\nghostly history lesson about northern Canada’s turn-of-the-century gold\nrush\, and of D awson City itself.
From the fires that frequently\nburned it to the ground\, to the indigenous populations that were pushed\naside by settler s\, to the Hollywood and business luminaries that once lived\nthere (inclu ding Donald’s Trump’s grandfather\, who began his fortune\nwith a brot hel)\, it’s an awe-inspiring sweeping study. Morrison further\nconjures a sense of the past—and of life’s impermanence—through\nexpert monta ges of long-forgotten silent dramas and comedies. Set to Alex\nSomers’ g orgeous\, melancholy score\, those faded\, corrupted\nblack-and-white imag es feel like echoes from a distant era\, here lovingly\nresurrected so tha t they might live again.
