Center for the Arts taking a hipper line By Tony Cagala
ESCONDIDO — The upcoming 2015-16 season at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido might look and even sound a little hipper than its traditional programming of years past. The San Diego Symphony makes its return to the Center in the new season, but this time with a twist — performing with Ben Folds. Also, Swedish indie folk singer José González will be performing with yMusic, a six-member instrumental ensemble. It’s part of the Center’s approach to try and attract a younger audience, explained Executive Director Jerry Van Leeuwen. The Center, which operates on 26-show season business model, is working under the guidelines of creating a mix of programming, Van Leeuwen explained, so that there would be at least one thing that everyone would say
they’d want to see. Van Leeuwen has left that to booking agent Bruce Labadie, now in his second year of solidifying the Center’s programming. It’s about putting out a lot of offers and seeing what happens, Labadie said of getting the season’s line up together. Labadie, a Santa Cruz resident is also the artistic and festival director of the San Jose Jazz Fest. “I think landing Ben Folds is good,” Labadie said. “If we can draw an audience to symphonic music and also draw a younger audience to see Ben Folds, it’s a reason for success.” Labadie found that country does well at the Center, and so they were able to bring in Vince Gill with his side project The Time Jumpers. Van Leeuwen said he was surprised that they were able to get the TEN TURN TO ART CENTER ON 18
