I 'm delighted to welcome you to this UMS per formance in my role as Chair of the UMS Board of Directors. I am honored to serve UMS, one of the oldest arts presenting organizations in the country, now in its 133rd season. I serve along with the 34 elected and ex-officio members of the Board whose names appear on page /14 of this program book. Indeed, UMS has more than 750 volunteers, each providing critical services that contribute to UMS's excellence, including members of the Senate, Advisory Committee, UMS Choral Union, Usher Corps, Teacher Advisory Commit tee, and our UMS National Council and Corporate Council. FROM THE UMS BOARD CHAIR The mission of UMS is "to inspire and en rich communities by connecting audiences and artists in uncommon and engaging experiences." In pursuing this mission, we have developed a reputation far beyond southeastern Michigan. The scope of our presentations extends beyond music to include dance and theater. In the fall season we were entertained with Gate Theatre Dublin performing Beckett, the amazing artistry of Yuja Wang, mesmerizing movement by Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan, and the sounds of A Night in Treme—something for every taste and interest. This winter, we will have the oppor tunity to enjoy a range of performances by artists including the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, as well as rare preview performances of Einstein on the Beach, and a multi-concert residency with the San Francisco Symphony and Michael Tilson Thomas. We also welcome you to help us conclude our season on Sunday, April is 22, 2012 in Hill Auditorium for the Ford Honors Program, which will honor Joshua Bell and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Please open your mind and your soul to these and other simi lar opportunities. Speaking of heart-warming opportunities, UMS continues to be committed to creating op portunities for younger audi ences to have cultural expe riences. We provide heavily discounted tickets to students as well as arrange and sup port special performances for students in K-12 programs. If you ever have the opportunity to attend a UMS youth per formance, please arrange to do so. The students express deep and inspiring impressions of a wider world for which they are most appreciative. We are in the "experience" business. I thank you for attending this performance, and I invite you to attend more UMS performances this sea son and to support UMS by making a gift. Your support will help UMS continue not only its out standing presentations but also its award-winning educational programs for people of all ages. There are many ways to contribute to UMS. You'll find more information throughout this program book and on our website at www.ums.org. Sincerely, David J. Herzig Chair, UMS Board of Directors
