2 SEPTEMBER 2020

Dear Member,

As all of us face this uniquely challenging year, WTTW News has been out report-ing from the neighborhoods, talking with residents who are sharing their stories.

This coverage has illuminated how the COVID-19 crisis disproportionately affects Black and Latino communi-ties in Chicago, and it is moments like these that compel us to sharpen our focus on how we use our public media platform to serve our diverse community.

This month, we will launch Chicago Tonight: Latino Voices and Chicago Tonight: Black Voices, two additions to our news and public affairs lineup and an extension of WTTW’s flagship news show. The VOICES series will provide thoughtful and accurate coverage of current events to inform and engage the public, and create op-portunities for real conversation. Each week, Latino

Voices and Black Voices will offer a mix of analysis and features on a wide range of topics, including arts and life, entrepreneurship and innovation, and equity and justice across the sectors of our society and in the Black and Latino communities in Chicago.

And, as the upcoming election will have a profound impact on Chicago area residents, don’t miss Frontline: The Choice – Trump vs. Biden. Meet the renowned producer-director-writer of this definitive biographical documentary, Michael Kirk, on page 4.

WFMT will celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by featuring works by Spanish and Latin-American composers and musicians throughout September and October, including Heitor Villa-Lobos, Alfredo Rolando Ortiz, and Guadalupe Trigo. And don’t miss the legendary soprano Leontyne Price’s performance of Manuel de Falla’s El Amor Brujo with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Impromptu’s visit with the award-winning Catalyst Quartet, a group that advocates for diversity and inclu-sion in classical music. On wfmt.com, explore Chicago’s rich cultural landscape as we talk to some of the city’s best Latin music and performing arts groups including Mariachi Herencia de México and Sones de México.

As always, thank you for your continuing support of WTTW and WFMT.

Sincerely,

Sandra Cordova MicekPresident & CEO

From the President & CEO

4 SEPTEMBER 2020

Michael Kirk is a veteran Frontline producer who has made scores of political docu-mentaries, including four installments of Frontline’s election-year fixture The Choice. In The Choice 2020: Trump vs. Biden, which premieres Tuesday, September 22 at 9:00 pm, Kirk and his team offer portraits of the two major-party presidential candidates in an effort to understand how they might govern in the next four years.

This interview has been edited and condensed.

WTTW: At the beginning of this year, you told WTTW that, “It’s a precipice moment. This is really the most important political year coming that I have ever experienced, in all these years of reporting.” Do you still believe that, especially now that the country is experiencing numerous crises—the COVID-19 pandemic, an economic depression, and a reckoning with racial injustice?

MICHAEL KIRK: It’s a very, very, very complicated time. The pandemic and the racial reckoning that are overtaking our nation simultaneously have become parts of the political calculus. Who could have predicted them? And the way that they’ve altered

I think we have made eight other films that more or less always land around Trump. We know him and his policy and presi-dential sense. So the challenge was, do we make a film about the Trump pres-idency? Or do we stick to our guns, that this film is really about the life method of the two men who would be president?

Now that we know so much about Trump, we wanted to find out where he gets his life method from. Is it real? Is it artifice? Is it a strategy? How much of it is alterable by circumstances? Does the man make the times or do the times make the man? There

is a philosophy at work there that I think needs to be revealed.

The thing about Joe Biden that emerges from all of his political biography and his personal biography is the extent to which there really isn’t an identifiable ideology in there. Finding Joe Biden’s politics is a case of finding Joe Biden the man in crit-ical political moments and personal mo-ments where you see who he is. We wanted to know, why is he running, in what has to be the ugliest time to run for president? Where does that come from?

the potential reelection of Donald Trump is fascinating to try to speculate about and think about and report on.

If Trump wins reelection, all of the things that have been set in motion will come true. Many Americans might like that. Many other Americans will be horrified. But whatever happens, a lot more is now known about Trump’s ability as a presi-dent, and as a leader, and a lot more has become clear about where a second term would land.

WTTW: How are the crises facing this country affecting how you frame The Choice 2020: Trump vs. Biden?

KIRK: We decided that we would still use the method of The Choice, which is the idea that personality is destiny. If you want to look closely at the character of the two men who are asking to be President of the United States at this perilous time, there has never been a better time for political biography.

So we’ve found essentially eight crisis moments in each of their lives, with the notion that, in looking at those, how they approach them, and what pulls through from those moments to now, we can offer a prediction about how they’ll be as presi-dent in what is maybe the most crisis-filled period of our history since the Depression and World War II.

WTTW: This is the fifth The Choice docu-mentary you’ve made. Are there ways in which this one seems different?

KIRK: None of them are the same. You know so much more about incumbents after a term in office than you did before. This one is an interesting challenge be-cause of Trump. Not only did we make The Choice four years ago about him, but

2020 SEPTEMBER 5

Biden is offering this message of “The world is on its heels. We do not need anoth-er level of fighting: Bernie [Sanders], [Eliz-abeth] Warren, the fighters, the changers. We’ve got a huge crisis on our hands. Maybe what we need is a grief counselor.”

The election is probably going to be very close. So if it really comes down to that, maybe people want to know who it is that they might change sides for.

WTTW: What do you see as the stakes in this election?

KIRK: I think there is a real assault in America on knowledge-based institutions by people who firmly believe they’re right: the press, universities, science, in some cases, law and justice, civil rights institu-tions. The crisis points it out. It’s an assault on truth.

And this is not a commercial for Joe Biden, because all politicians assail and assault and try to undermine and control things. But something is afoot in America. A lot of people on both sides who I talk to un-derstand that they are in a struggle for: whose truth is it? Is it Mitch McConnell’s truth? Is it Nancy Pelosi’s truth? Is it your truth? Is it a suburban working mother who is now a teacher full time with her children’s truth?

And the press has a big responsibility for the problem, and a responsibility to fix the problem. And all of that is in play in this election, because when you talk about getting rid of the administrative state, or draining the swamp, or reinsti-tuting the rule of law, what everybody’s arguing about is the truth, and which truth is it. That’s why I think it’s a precipice moment. The differences between the two parties are very stark on this point.

If you want to look closely at the character of the two men who are asking to be

President of the United States at this perilous time, there

has never been a better time for political biography.

From the CSO’s Archives: Maestro’s ChoiceThe Ukrainian-born pianist Emil Gilels (1916-1985) had an extensive performing career in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe before his first U.S. appearance. In 1966, he returned to perform Beethoven’s Emperor Concerto with the Chicago Symphony under Jean Martinon, the climax of the first September edition of this series curated for WFMT by Riccardo Muti. Also hear Brahms’ Tragic Overture conducted by Frederick Stock. The following week, Muti conducts the rarely performed Lélio: Return to Life by Berlioz, a work for narrator, chorus, and orchestra, narrated by actor Gérard Depardieu. Finally, hear Pierre Boulez conducting Stravinsky’s complete ballet Pulcinella, while Bernard Haitink continues the orchestra’s Richard Strauss connection with Ein Heldenleben, from 2009 and 2008 respectively.

Music of the Baroque EncoreEnjoy these past performances by Music of the Baroque. Highlights include a Haydn-Mozart concert conducted by music director Jane Glover with pianist Imogen Cooper, a former student of Alfred Brendel. Glover is also on the podium for Mendelssohn’s Elijah, which reveals in its inspiration and structure the composer’s reverence for the works of Bach and Handel; bass-baritone Eric Owens portrays Elijah. Carl Grapentine narrates The Grand Tour, a 2019 concert led by Harry Bicket that follows an aristocratic English traveler of the 18th century through the major musical capitals of Europe. For The Family Bach, first presented in 2016, Glover combines works by Johann Sebastian with those of three of his sons. And to conclude the month, hear Pulpit and Playhouse under the direction of MOB’s principal guest conductor, Nicholas Kraemer – the concert includes an early Handel work, the psalm setting Dixit Dominus.

Wednesdays 8:00 pm

In the Spotlight

Operatic Classics from the Royal Opera House Covent GardenFirst up in this series is Beethoven’s Fidelio, starring Jonas Kaufmann as Florestan and conducted by Sir Antonio Pappano. The production, from last winter, also featured Norwegian-born soprano Lise Davidsen making her role debut as the title character. Then, from 2019, Mozart’s Don Giovanni stars bass-baritone Erwin Schrott in the title role and bass Roberto Tagliavini as his servant Leporello. Some have singled out this work as Mozart’s greatest opera, combining comic elements with romance, plus satirical, yet pointed, commentary on the victimization of women. Hartmut Haenchen conducts.

Voices from the SilenceIn 2003, Riccardo Muti’s Ravenna Festival commissioned a work from the late Italian film and concert-music composer Ennio Morricone (1928-2020). Voices from the Silence is presented in memory of the victims of September 11, 2001, though the dedication also pays tribute to the worldwide victims of racism, terrorism, and ethnic persecution. In addition to the chorus and orchestra, this moving piece features a narrator and pre-recorded African music; the text is by the South African poet Richard Moore Rive, who was murdered for his anti-apartheid activism. Join WFMT for this performance by the CSO from 2014.

In the Spotlight

From Opera SouthwestIn March 2019, Opera Southwest presented the first performance of Richard Wagner’s Lohengrin ever mounted in the state of New Mexico. Tenor Corey Bix sang Lohengrin, the Swan Knight from the sacred company of Knights of the Holy Grail, and soprano Michelle Johnson portrayed Elsa, the rightful Duchess of Brabant, accused of murdering her brother until Lohengrin arrives to defend her. Sean Anderson and Claudia Chapa portray Telramund and Ortrud, who seek to overthrow Elsa and rule Brabant themselves. Set in early medieval times, Lohengrin uses a libretto by Wagner himself that draws on ancient Germanic legends. Anthony Barrese is the conductor.

Last winter, he performed Ophelia’s Tears, the world premiere of a commission from the French composer Nicolas Bacri, in which the solo instrument is a bass clarinet. The piece tells the sad story of Ophelia in Shakespeare’s Hamlet, from her rejection by the title character through her suicide. The program opens with Riccardo Muti conducting Beethoven’s Symphony No. 2 and ends with the famous Beethoven Fifth.
