\u201cIt is particularly appropriate for this to be happening at Juilliard, whose students come from all over the country and across the world, each bringing their own histories and traditions with them,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n
Also collaborating with Hannigan are Grammy winner Rhiannon Giddens and dancer\/choreographer Michelle Dorrance.<\/p>\n
Other composers\u2019 works that will be heard during the evening include John Luther Adams, Paul Simon and Bach.<\/p>\n
In an interview this week with Forbes.com, Grammy Award-winning soprano and conductor Hannigan, who grew up in Nova Scotia, Canada, and currently lives in Finistere, on the northwest coast of France, said, \u201cIt’s interesting for me because I left my home province when I was 17 and I left Canada when I was 23 or 24. And I’ve been a foreigner, which is funny because my name Barbara, it means foreigner, you know, from \u2018barbarian.\u2019 \u2029And I have been a foreigner, whether it was the 20 years I spent in Holland or the last 10 years that I’ve spent in France, so more than half my life, I’ve been away from home. And I was I was talking to the Juilliard kids yesterday about that, what it’s like to live on foreign soil. \u2029And no matter how how long you’ve lived there or how many friends you have or whatever roots you’ve put down, you’re still from away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Juilliard president Damian Woetzel said \u201cDeparting\u201d also was inspired by \u201cthe idea of having such a global community, and how in so many ways what we can do together is so much more than what we can each do individually.\u201d<\/p>\n
The program will focus on \u201ctradition and innovation,\u201d he added, noting that the fall festival is \u201cmeant to be a gateway to the rest of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n
