(New York, May 9, 2018)—The Met announced today the programming for its next MetLiveArts performance series and Artist in Residence, the powerhouse soprano Julia Bullock. Throughout 2018–19, leading artists will connect the Museum’s exhibitions and individual works of art to a collective human narrative through original commissions and site-specific performances.
Artist in Residence Julia Bullock has created five programs that will be presented throughout the year. Her residency will include collaborations with renowned guest performers and will draw on the lives, legacies, and words of Josephine Baker, Langston Hughes, and Thornton Dial, among others.
The 2018–19 season also features a new artist residency focusing specifically on The Met Cloisters. The historical performance ensemble Sonnambula will invigorate the location’s medieval galleries through a series of concerts that bring a contemporary sensibility to the group’s historically informed performances. During their residency at The Met Cloisters, Sonnambula will perform with world-renowned artists, including the renaissance wind ensemble Piffaro, lute virtuoso Esteban La Rotta, and author and photographer Teju Cole.
“MetLiveArts commissions powerful artists to explore the Museum’s collection and create relevant, thought-provoking performances,” said Daniel H. Weiss, President and CEO of The Met. “This upcoming season of programming will connect our three locations with a broad and diverse audience, creating new pathways for engagement with our exhibitions and encyclopedic collection and exhibitions.”
Among the season’s other highlights are a new evening-length work by Cécile McLorin Salvant—the first ever written by this leading jazz vocalist; a world premiere by New York City Ballet dancer and choreographer Silas Farley set to spirituals and songs by current inmates at San Quentin State Prison; a collaboration between the South Bronx’s It’s Showtime NYC! and The Met’s Department of Arms and Armor leading to dance performances in the Arms and Armor Court that are inspired by the collection; and a durational work at The Met Breuer by artist Oliver Beer, who has created a sound installation (on view for seven weeks) featuring a range of vessels spanning centuries that will be activated in performances by musicians.
“The Met has always been a place for artists, and MetLiveArts continues and strengthens that tradition by collaborating with living artists,” said Limor Tomer, General Manager of Live Arts. “Julia Bullock, Silas Farley, Suzanne Bocanegra, and It’s Showtime NYC! have been working closely with our curators and conservators for months. Out of this intense incubation process, these new works will not only bring new interpretations, connections, and clarity but will also change us as practitioners.”
Performances will be both ticketed and free with Museum admission, and Bring the Kids for $1 tickets are available for almost every performance.
2018–19 MetLiveArts Artist in Residence: Julia Bullock
The vocalist Julia Bullock will craft a season of compelling, transcendent performances that bring to light some of world culture’s hidden and suppressed narratives through considering ways in which to give voice to objects and stories that have been made silent.
This “exceptional singer of the new generation” (The New York Times), hailed as “opulent and glorious” by Opera News, brings her rich and resonant soprano vocals—which have been garnering raves around the world—as well as her social consciousness and activism as an artist, to The Met collection.
“Social constructs not only impact the art that is made, but they directly influence how art is presented and for whom it is preserved,” said Julia Bullock. “The MetLiveArts team and The Met’s curatorial staff are currently filled with a conscious group of individuals who understand how creative voices can influence one another when put in close proximity. So to be given space to consider the art and history of The Met, and the opportunity to more deeply explore what The Met represents and communicates to the world, to New York, and to me personally, has been a great privilege.”

Capturing each vessel’s unique sound with a small microphone, Beer invites a diverse group of musicians to work with his Vessel Orchestra installation as a pan-historical, pan-cultural musical instrument, bridging geographic and chronological divides.
Free with Museum admission.

Mahler and the Feminine Ideal
Sunday, September 30, 2 p.m.
Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder and the artwork of Klimt, Schiele, and Picasso
In the early 1900s, artists across all genres were obsessed with the image of the feminine, depicting women as elevated aspirations for redemption and as objects of lust. Mahler was no exception. Kindertotenlieder evokes the idealization of the family and the reality of his life with his infamous wife, Alma.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Obsession: Nudes by Klimt, Schiele, and Picasso from the Scofield Thayer Collection, on view at The Met Breuer, July 3–October 7, 2018.
Chopin, Delacroix and the Romantic Impulse
Sunday, November 18, 2 p.m.
Chopin’s Variations on “Là ci darem la mano,” Berlioz’s Waverley Overture, and the artwork of Delacroix
Delacroix, a contemporary of Berlioz, was passionate about music. In his later years, he became close to Chopin and developed a fascination with Mozart. The romantic impulse embodied in their art can be seen through the prism of two radically different but equally innovative strategies depicting beauty and the sublime.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Delacroix, on view at The Met Fifth Avenue, September 17, 2018–January 6, 2019.
Abstraction in Music and Art
Sunday, May 19, 2019, 2 p.m.
Webern’s Six Pieces for Orchestra, Feldman’s Orchestra (NY Premiere), and the artwork of the Abstract Expressionists
Painters have often been inspired by music as the ultimate abstract art form. Musical abstraction started with the radical modernist Anton Webern, who freed the form from the conventions of late Romanticism. At the height of the Abstract Expressionist movement, experimental composer Morton Feldman mirrored the painters and took his inspiration from their art.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Epic Abstraction: Pollock to Herrera, on view at The Met Breuer, opening November 27, 2018.
