To the BAM Family: BAM continues to thrive and connect with our artists, audience, and community. None of this would be possible without the action and incredible support from so many. We want to acknowledge the partnership and support of the City of New York and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg; the New York City Council speaker Christine C. Quinn and Cultural Committee Chairman Domenic M. Recchia Jr.; Councilmember Letitia James; the Council’s Brooklyn delegation; Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz; and the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, Kate D. Levin, Commissioner. The Altria Group, Inc. provided support with steadfast sponsorship of the Next Wave Festival. In addition, we acknowledge Bloomberg, Inc. for its increased commitment as presenting sponsor of the 2006 Spring Season. I especially want to give thanks to donors of all levels for their generosity—your enthusiasm for the things we do at BAM and your ongoing generous support demonstrates a vote of confidence in the work being presented. Two new sources of leadership support must be recognized. In 2005, BAM secured a multi-year matching contribution of $5 million from an anonymous donor. We expect this wonderful gift will encourage new operating and endowment commitments. In 2004, aided by Congressman Major R. Owens and the Brooklyn Delegation of the U.S. House of Representatives, BAM Education & Humanities received significant funding for youth initiatives from the US Department of Justice. Additionally, Senator Charles E. Schumer and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton were instrumental in securing new funding for BAM from the US Department of Education.

We will be celebrating some significant milestones in the next few years. Our signature Next Wave Festival will celebrate its 25th year in 2007. It seems like yesterday that we introduced this wonderful festival to New York! Moreover, we are proud to say that planning is already underway for the celebration of BAM’s 150th birthday in 2011. As we look toward that unique event, we are planning efforts to double our endowment to well over $100 million. Strengthening the endowment is essential—great institutions are built on great endowments, providing the security and stability that permits risk-taking. I thank BAM Endowment Trust Board Chair Irwin Lainoff and his fellow trustees for wisely investing funds for BAM’s future. I am saddened to report the loss of Board member Evelyn Ortner, who passed away on September 19, 2006. Evelyn was a loyal friend of BAM—a Board member for 31 years and president of the Friends of BAM in that program’s infancy. We will miss her dearly. I also thank my fellow members on the BAM Board of Trustees for their valued leadership. I welcome the new members who have joined since July 2004: Steven G. Felsher, Jeanne Donovan Fisher, Barry M. Fox, G. Penn Holsenbeck, William Josephson (Honorary Trustee), Karen B. Peetz, Jakob Trollbäck, William Warren, Claire Wood, and Andrew Zolli. I offer the departing members thanks for their tremendous work: Hyatt Bass, Norman Buchan, Kenneth V. Handal, James E. Kelly, Sarah G. Miller, Steven J. Nulty, and John Tamberlane. As you read the report, I know you’ll feel the BAM spirit. We can’t do it without all of you. Thank you. See you at BAM.

Alan H. Fishman Chairman

Dear Friends, BAM continues to be a positive force in making Brooklyn the most vital borough in the city. We are vigorously developing programs that reflect New York City as it is today—with a focus on diversity, community, urban energy, and on endeavors that strengthen this institution. We are deeply tuned in to global performance, presenting 56 productions and artists from 25 countries in 2004—2006. In addition, we are avidly developing our cinema program. BAM Rose Cinemas has been remarkably successful, attracting larger audiences every year. And we’ve fully integrated the cinema business—open 365 days a year, with the youngest audiences and least expensive tickets—into BAM’s overall operations. The addition of cinemas to our program has helped us make great strides toward BAM’s goal to be the pre-eminent cultural institution of the 21st century. Sundance Institute at BAM, inaugurated in 2006, broadened the BAMcinématek program, now in its eighth year. Attracting more than 10,000 visitors, the series—films, Q&As, concerts, and other programs—generated tremendous excitement, bringing to Brooklyn a microcosm of Sundance Institute, which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2006. It also provided a chance for many new people, particularly Brooklynites, to visit BAM. We’d like to acknowledge the efforts of trustees Jonathan Rose and Jeanne Donovan Fisher toward realizing this exciting partnership, and at Sundance, Robert Redford, Ken Brecher, and John Cooper. Over the past two years, the Harvey Theater and the Howard Gilman Opera House have seen some of the most iconic performers of our time, including Vanessa Redgrave, Lynn Redgrave, Isabelle Huppert, George Clinton, and Cate Blanchett. We are privileged to have these incredibly talented artists grace our stages. In addition, we feted the 25th anniversary of the Mark Morris Dance Group with a month of events. We welcomed many community partners in programs such as the New York Korean Film Festival, NewFest, Afro-Punk, the African Film Festival, and at BAMcafé, featuring a slate of terrific artist/neighbor musicians. With Eat, Drink & Be Literary, a unique dinner and a reading program established with our colleagues at the National Book Foundation, we have succeeded in our goal to build a community around literature, as we’ve done with cinema and the performing arts. An ongoing series of BAMart exhibitions has made visual art a regular element of our programs. These programs offer many reasons to visit, feel connected to, and be a vital part of the institution. And while there are many changes happening in Brooklyn —residential growth, new building and development—we hope that our neighbors who have regularly visited BAM will continue to do so as we welcome newcomers with open arms. Looking ahead, we’re focused on growing the endowment to ensure that BAM is secure in perpetuity and will continue to provide a home for important work and community initiatives. Renovations continue apace to enhance and improve on our beautiful and historic home. We’d like to acknowledge support from City Council Speaker Christine Quinn and welcome her aboard; Dominic Recchia, Chair of the Committee of Cultural Affairs for the City Council, who has been a valued champion; City Council Member Letitia James; Mayor Michael Bloomberg; and Kate D. Levin, Commissioner of Cultural Affairs. We recognize with gratitude the Brooklyn State Assembly and State Senate delegation led by Assemblyman Joseph R. Lentol, and we bid retiring Congressman Major Owens a farewell and thanks. And of course we extend our heartfelt gratitude to BAM’s Board of Trustees and staff for their tireless work.

2004 True to Next Wave tradition, the 2004 Festival offered many transformative theatrical moments. Two gifted directors made memorable US debuts—Thomas Ostermeier, with a searingly physical Nora (A Doll’s House), and Poland’s Krzysztof Warlikowski, who directed TR Warszawa in a haunting production of The Dybbuk. Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch once again packed houses, this time with Fur die Kinder, von gestern, heute und morgen, and Ralph Lemon capped The Geography Trilogy with Come 5

home Charley Patton, couched with rich personal history. Intrepid composers Michael Gordon, David Lang, and Julia Wolfe collaborated on Lost Objects, and dance world pioneer David Gordon directed and performed in a stirring interpretation of Ionesco’s The Chairs. Robert Wilson and Bernice Johnson Reagon created a visually and aurally sumptuous production of The Temptation of St. Anthony, and Belgium’s Needcompany, led by Jan Lauwers, thrilled and provoked audiences with Isabella’s room.

The Next Wave Festival is celebrated for assembling remarkable performances from the world over. In the 2005 Festival, Orion set a galaxy of international musical stars onstage with native New Yorker Philip Glass, whose Symphonies 6 & 8 were performed later in the season by Bruckner Orchestra Linz. Audiences were treated to eye-popping spectacles in Tall Horse, which boasted a life-sized giraffe puppet (Handspring & Sogolon Puppet Companies), and Bright Abyss, featuring the physical brilliance of cirque nouveau performer extraordinaire, James Thiérrée. Theater ranged from The Winter’s Tale, a bawdy, gregarious male-cast rendition by Watermill Theatre/

Propeller; to Michael Thalheimer’s jolting, incisive production of Emilia Galotti; to Sarah Kane’s 4.48 Psychose, a laser-intense tour de force starring Isabelle Huppert. Batsheva Dance Company performed Ohad Naharin’s Mamootot, a study of personal and distant encounters. The National Ballet of China performed film director Zhang Yimou’s visually sumptuous ballet, Raise the Red Lantern. In Impromptus, Sasha Waltz created a dreamlike dance on shifting planes to Schubert; and Wally Cardona, in his BAM debut, disassembled a forest and used it to build a staircase in the Bessie Awardwinning Everywhere.

Theater in the 2005 and 2006 Spring Seasons included Matthew Bourne’s mod, stylish Play Without Words, which dismantled conventions with a story told through movement and clever tripled roles. Laurie Anderson cast a spell with The End of the Moon, an intimate musical and anecdotal meditation on time. Two productions marked Henrik Ibsen’s centenary: Robert Wilson’s resplendent Peer Gynt by the National Theatre of Bergen and the Norwegian Theatre of Oslo, Norway; and Hedda Gabler by the Sydney Theatre Company, starring Cate Blanchett and Hugo Weaving. Theatre Royal Bath, under the direction of Sir Peter Hall, brought As You Like It featuring Rebecca Hall; and The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, starring Lynn Redgrave. Another Redgrave—Vanessa—harrowingly embodied Hecuba in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s production of a new translation by Tony Harrison.

Les Arts Florissants, led by Maestro William Christie and directed by Luc Bondy, performed an arresting production of Handel’s Hercules. Patti Smith gave one of the year’s most talked-about performances in a 20th anniversary concert rendition of her album, Horses. Jonathan Miller’s beloved informal rendition of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion returned for its third and final run at BAM to enthusiastic sold-out houses. Songs

Dance

Mark Morris Dance Group performed in both Spring seasons, marking its 25th anniversary in 2006 with a no-holdsbarred Month of Mark jubilee that filled BAM’s halls, from mainstage to cinema. DanceAfrica fulfilled audiences’ eager expectations, spotlighting a variety of the world’s finest African and African American troupes, from Peru to Brooklyn. Two Canadian companies paid visits: La La La Human Steps performed Édouard Lock’s adrenalized, mesmerizing Amelia, and the National Ballet of Canada brought James Kudelka’s intriguing interpretation of the Pied Piper, The Contract. William Forsythe’s new Germany-based troupe, The Forsythe Company, transformed the opera house into a dance/theater laboratory with Kammer/Kammer.

In May 2006, BAM embarked on one of its most ambitious partnerships ever: Sundance Institute at BAM. In development for nearly two years, this program combined screenings of films direct from the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, new music from Sundance Institute Labs, screenplay readings, and Days of Process workshops, all designed to give audiences a view into the creative process behind Sundance Institute. Over 10,000 people attended, with numerous sold-out programs in the cinemas. This series featured 40 events over an eleven-day period, utilizing virtually every space in the Peter Jay Sharp Building. The opening night screening of Little Miss Sunshine was a star-studded affair with Robert Redford introducing the evening. Filmmakers and artists were on hand to share their experiences and work with audiences, including John Waters, Audra MacDonald, Mos Def, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, and Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney.

Spring Time Fresh by The Clayton Brothers

BAMart presents visual art exhibitions and conducts special projects as a unique fundraising tool for BAM. Each season work by a selected artist graces the cover of the BAMbill house program. The sales of these donated works benefit BAM’s programming. In the 2005 and 2006 seasons, with assistance from trustee David Ramsey, BAMart proudly presented covers featuring donated artworks by Kojo Griffin, Peter Schuyff, Mary Heilmann, and the Clayton Brothers. Special and limited edition BAMart offerings include Roy Lichtenstein’s print, This Must Be The Place. An essential part of BAMart’s mission is to reach out to local artists working in Brooklyn’s vibrant arts community. In that spirit, BAMart presented NextNext Visual Art during the 2004 and 2005 Next Wave. Curated by Dan Cameron of the New Museum of Contemporary Art, NextNext installs art throughout the Peter Jay Sharp Building and Harvey Theater. These exhibitions of around a dozen emerging Brooklyn artists include site-specific projects.

In June 2005 and May 2006, BAMart presented the first and second annual BAMart Silent Auctions. Each auction presented over 100 works of contemporary art in the Dorothy W. Levitt Lobby and Natman Room. Included works ranged from pieces by internationally known artists to young, emerging, and Brooklynbased artists. During the 2005 Spring Season, BAMart collaborated with South of the Navy Yard Artists, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Brooklyn artists. The result was Project Diversity, a borough-wide show curated by trustee Danny Simmons, linking large and small art venues to present a wide array of Brooklyn artists. BAMart greatly expanded its slate of exhibitions during the 2006 Spring Season, bringing six different shows to the Natman Room. These included work by BAM staff, photography by the collective Kamoinge, Inc. work in celebration of Brooklyn Jewish Heritage Month, photography by women transitioning out of Rikers Island, and sculpture, sound, and video from a citywide exhibition celebrating the World Cup, entitled The Beautiful Game.

Special series included NextNext, Sista Factory, Black Rock Coalition, the Steinhardt Jewish Heritage Festival, a Mark Morris-curated lineup, Sundance Institute at BAM, and others. Many Brooklyn artists performed on their home turf, providing a strong neighborhood presence in a geographically diverse panoply of artists.

Community Programs

BAM expanded the breadth and reach of its community programs, adding to a popular roster of free events. BAM Rhythm & Blues Festival at MetroTech—free lunchtime concerts —showcased favorites such as Odetta, The Neville Brothers, and new talent like Raul Midón. With the CityParks Foundation, BAM brought live music to relaxed park settings in Fort Greene and Bedford-Stuyvesant. The annual Brooklyn Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. continued to draw highly regarded guest speakers, entertainers, and capacity crowds to remember the civil rights leader. Other continuing programs include the BAM BOO! Halloween block party, DanceAfrica events, and the BAM Ticket Assistance Program, which distributes free tickets to BAM performances. Senior Cinema—screenings of classic films plus popcorn and soda, for senior citizens—has become an extremely popular series. BAM organized convivial receptions around mainstage programs, inviting community leaders to meet, greet, and partake of refreshments from local restaurateurs; BAM also hosted receptions for free screenings and other events. In addition to hosting community groups’ functions, BAM offered discounts on space rental rates for neighbors. In conjunction with Eat, Drink & Be Literary, BAM ran book drives to harvest books for organizations advocating literacy. BAM administered grants to five orgranizations helping at-risk youths in Brooklyn, and provided space for the Brooklyn Music and Art Program.

BAM’s Department of Education & Humanities is dedicated to bringing the excitement of the arts to young people through its Education programs and to increasing BAM’s adult audiences’ appreciation of the work on stage and in the cinemas through its Humanities programs. In its Education programs, BAM’s goal is to offer students the same caliber of groundbreaking, challenging work from around the world that it provides for adults, inspiring young audiences with curricula that address important artistic, social, and political issues. Each year BAM serves about 150 schools and 20,000 students, teachers, and parents. The Department brings an innovative series of performances, films, and arts residencies to students in several different programs: Generation BAM for high school students, kaBAM (kids at BAM) for elementary and junior high students, BAMfamily performances, and the BAMkids Film Festival. Performances include programs designed especially for student audiences, as well as student matinees of BAM Next Wave Festival and Spring Season programs. BAM also offers a Screening program, featuring films that focus on historical or social issues, followed by discussions with individuals having expertise related to the film. Every film or performance is accompanied by an in-school pre-show preparation workshop and a teacher’s study guide. BAM also offers workshop-based artist-in-residence programs. These include Shakespeare Teaches Students, designed to make Shakespeare come alive for students; Shakespeare Teaches Teachers, for teachers to develop a curriculum on Shakespeare; Dancing into the Future, master classes led by acclaimed dancers and choreographers; and the Young Critics Institute and the new Young Film Critics, after-school programs for high school students about writing criticism. The Department also presents an annual student matinee by the visiting DanceAfrica company, preceded by residencies in music and dance (AfricanDanceBeat and AfricanMusicBeat). Brooklyn Reads is a literacy and arts initiative in which students learn to read, write, and perform their own poetry. An innovative program was added in spring 2006—Court Room Drama, an after-school theater and visual arts program for students interested in the criminal justice system. This program, a collaboration with Youth Courts, encourages young people to examine the justice system creatively and critically, while simultaneously developing their artistic and decision-making skills. In spring 2006, the Department also celebrated the tenth anniversary of its partnership with the Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation, in which BAM provides a humanities curriculum on the arts and culture of the visiting DanceAfrica ensemble to students who then perform on stage with the company in BAM’s annual DanceAfrica program and create an African Sculpture Garden at BAM. The Department also presents Humanities programs surrounding the Next Wave Festival and Spring Season, including the BAMdialogue series and BAMtalks, which join BAM artists in discussion with critics, scholars, and audience members. A new program was added in 2005 in partnership with the National Book Awards—the highly successful Eat, Drink & Be Literary series, featuring dinner and readings by acclaimed authors such as Joyce Carol Oates, Walter Mosley, Jonathan Lethem, and Jhumpa Lahiri. BAM was fortunate to have the late acclaimed playwright, Wendy Wasserstein, as the inaugural moderator for the series. 25

Capital Projects In summer of 2006, BAM successfully completed an $11.1 million capital campaign, known as “Infrastructure 2005.” The project, designed by Martin Kapell and Sheldon Catarino of Studio A/WASA and managed by Mike Mirisola and Scott Brugge of Greyhawk North America, focused on a number of much-needed improvements to BAM’s performance venues. The Howard Gilman Opera House received a new HVAC system, new pit lift flooring, repairs to the stage ceiling and roofs, upgraded fire curtain and pit lift mechanics, new sound system, and a comprehensive ceiling restoration. In the Lepercq Space, the floor and sub-flooring were replaced. And at the Harvey Theater, a new fly system was installed, in addition to an HVAC replacement and general roof repairs. The next phase includes a glass canopy, designed by Hugh Hardy of H3 Hardy Collaboration Architecture as part of the exterior restoration. The 130-foot-long undulating glass canopy will project roughly eighteen feet from the building’s façade and will be composed of 67 fritted structural glass panels supported by stainless steel tubing. This project also includes new exterior lighting under the canopy and new fiber optic lighting illuminating the building’s newly restored cornice. The BAM building, owned by the City of New York, received funding for these projects through the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs with support from the New York City Council and Brooklyn Borough President. To top it all off, in 2006, BAM was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of its profound influence on American culture.

Howard Gilman Opera House

Campaign for BAM is the term BAM uses to describe its comprehensive, consolidated effort to raise funds for all of its ongoing needsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;annual operating expenses, permanent endowment, and capital initiatives (including renovations and construction). By combining all of its fundraising drives under one â&#x20AC;&#x153;Campaign for BAMâ&#x20AC;? umbrella, BAM maximizes the efficiency and effectiveness of its outreach to donors. The BAM Endowment Campaign raises money for a permanent endowment. The assets of this endowment are invested prudently in order to ensure steady growth and dependable income for Brooklyn Academy of Music for many generations to come. Gifts to the BAM Endowment Campaign must be designated as such, and are never commingled with other BAM funds. The BAM Endowment is carefully monitored and nurtured by a special affiliate organization called the BAM Endowment Trust.

To the BAM Family: I was elected chair of the BAM Endowment Board of Trustees in 2005 and succeeded the visionary Dick Fisher, who led that Board from its inception in 1992 until his untimely death in 2004. I must express my deepest thanks to my fellow trustees on the BET Board—Susan L. Baker, Henry Christensen III, Dinyar S. Devitre, Alan H. Fishman, Elizabeth Holtzman, James I. McLaren, BET Board Vice Chair Norman Peck, R. Edward Spilka, and Nora Ann Wallace—for all their support and for their input on investment issues. Suffice it to say it is still a roller coaster ride in the market, but we tried both to increase the value and safeguard BAM’s endowment through our investment strategy. Over the two-year period from July 1, 2004 to June 30, 2006, the endowment earned 14.3%; the total net assets of the endowment were $57,343,739 as of June 30, 2006. As a result of investment earnings, the BAM Endowment Trust was able to make income distributions to BAM—$1,320,000 in FY2005 and $1,820,188 in FY2006—to benefit BAM programming and operations. In each case, the distribution covered 4.7 to 5.7% respectively of the operating budget, which is a big help in these challenging economic times. Irwin Lainoff

Thus, our primary goals for the endowment are to continue growth through investment returns, to preserve capital through prudent investment allocations, and to significantly raise the endowment corpus through new gifts benefiting our campaign. As BAM Board Chairman Alan Fishman stated in his letter, further strengthening our endowment is critical to the success and future of BAM. Endowment fundraising has always been a great challenge for BAM, in part due to its significant annual operating fundraising goals, and partly because BAM’s endowment is only fourteen years old. Let me give you a brief recap of the endowment’s history at BAM. The Campaign for BAM was initiated in 1992 to create Brooklyn Academy of Music’s first endowment. Phase One (1992—1995) established a $12 million nucleus that provided BAM with a basic financial foundation and supported operations through annual distribution of interest income. Phase Two (1996—2000) was a comprehensive effort combining operating, endowment, institutional development, and building renovation needs into one unified campaign, which built the endowment to $20 million. Phase Three (2001—2006) aimed to double the endowment—a goal that was successfully achieved and surpassed through leadership grants and gifts from The Peter Jay Sharp Foundation, Richard B. Fisher and Jeanne Donovan Fisher, and matching gifts from BAM trustees, foundations, corporations, and individuals. BAM is now planning Phase Four (2007—2011) of The Campaign for BAM, the endowment goal of which would be to double our endowment again to reach the $100 million level and better ensure BAM’s financial stability and secure BAM’s programming for the 21st century and beyond. I hope you will join me in achieving our ambitious goals for the future of BAM.

BAM celebrates!

Apart from the stages, BAM always finds a reason to celebrate—an opening night, a new series, a benefit gala, to welcome a very special guest. Recently, celebrations include Karen Brooks Hopkins’ appointment to the New York State Board of Regents; Joseph V. Melillo’s honorary OBE award for his outstanding commitment to British performing arts in America; and the completion of the main building’s gorgeous restoration was feted with a look-alike cake created by BAM neighbor Cake Man Raven.

Photos (clockwise from above) by Elena Olivo unless otherwise noted: BAMcafé; Joseph V. Melillo receiving an OBE from UK Ambassador Sir David Manning, photo by Greg E. Mathieson/MAI; BAM cake baked by Cake Man Raven; DanceAfrica Artistic Dir. Chuck Davis and friend; Sundance Institute at BAM opening night (L-R: Sundance Institute Exec. Dir. Ken Brecher, Little Miss Sunshine dirs. Jonathan Dayton/Valerie Faris with actress Abigail Breslin, Karen Brooks Hopkins, Sundance Institute Pres./Founder Robert Redford, Joseph V. Melillo); Hedda Gabler reception (L-R: director Robyn Nevin, Karen Brooks Hopkins, actress Cate Blanchett, Joseph V. Melillo); 2005 Brooklyn Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (L-R: Karen Brooks Hopkins, US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, entertainer Melba Moore, Brooklyn Borough Pres. Marty Markowitz, Medgar Evers College Pres. Dr. Edison O. Jackson).
