SUMMARY:Exhibition:  The Mortal Apparatus — Photographs of Flowers & Cityscapes by Chris Fiore
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents The Mortal Apparatus\, an exhibition of photographs of fading flowers and cityscapes by Chris Fiore. A mix of color and b&w\, the photographs are all clearly digitally manipulated and highlight the artificiality and intentionality of the photographic act. The images call attention to the often overlooked beauty that can be found in decaying objects\, natural and man-made\, suggesting how our minds look for signs of the eternal in the ephemeral and create new layers of meaning. Ultimately\, these works invite us to consider how our thoughts touch and re-make everything we look upon. \nThe exhibition opens on September 14\, 2017 and will remain on view until November 30\, 2017. An Opening Reception with the artist will take place on Friday\, September 22\, 2017 from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. \nIn conjunction with the exhibition\, two free evenings of screenings of film/video work by the artist will take place on October 13 (“Goodman” and “The Red Umbrella Diaries”) and on November 10 (world premiere of “The Ken Stones:  Miami” and A(DE)SCENT”) from 7:30 – 10 pm. Seating for these screenings is limited and available on a first come\, first serve basis. \nArtist’s Exhibition Statement: \nFrom time immemorial the nature of what we value most has been defined in human terms; our families\, our villages\, our rulers\, our religions\, have defined us in ways intrinsic to our nature as people\, as father\, mother\, sister\, brother\, friend\, and neighbor\, etc. We lived in a world of barter and local currencies defined by our communities and shared needs. \nThen the industrial revolution introduced a new set of values as we had an entirely new thing to measure ourselves against: the ubiquitous machine. Mechanical things that could weave\, move\, and manufacture faster than any human began to shape the lives of millions of people who moved from farms and villages to the cities (massive machines themselves) in search of factory work. This shaping of our lives by technology and factory work has since enveloped the world and affects every aspect of our lives. \nWilling or not\, we are supplicants to the mechanical and the cybernetic. From the moment our parents sat us down in front of a screen\, be it a television\, tablet\, or phone\, automation has literally shaped our minds\, our perception of reality\, and in turn\, what we value. We are no longer strictly human and the velocity of our technologies make us less so every day. In short\, we are already cyborgs. \nArtist Statement \nThe camera is my favorite machine. To me\, the camera has transcended its nature as a mechanical device and has become something verging on a magic instrument. Capable of capturing the fleeting and the ephemeral\, of freezing light and stopping time\, of making the intimate public\, of telling profound truths and fascinating lies\, of imbuing meaning into the mundane and transforming the precious into the mechanical\, the camera is a collective third eye that has shaped the perceptions of a species. \nArtist Profile: \nFilmmaker\, writer\, and artist Chris Fiore\, born 1959 in Norfolk\, Virginia\, received his BFA from Antioch College in 1984. In the late 80’s he was one of the founders of the Zone\, a artist collective occupying an abandoned warehouse at 104 South 4th St\, in Williamsburg\, Brooklyn. Fiore showed at the East Village’s KOAP gallery in the early 90’s and in 1995 directed the underground documentary Trip and Go Naked\, winner of the Excellence in Sexual Theater award at Arlene’s Grocery Picture Show. He went on to direct the feature documentary Backstage for Miramax\, a behind the scenes look at Jay Z’s Hard Knock Life Tour. The film had a profitable run in theaters and is still occasionally in rotation on the Showtime network 17 years after it was made. Fiore has also directed documentaries on the making of the Victoria’s Secret Christmas Catalog\, the band Paramore\, as well as two prime time specials for Fox Television. His most recent documentary\, Goodwoman\, tells the story of Debra Goodman\, an activist brutally arrested for filming the NYPD. Featured in several film festivals\, Goodwoman won the Grand Jury Award at the 2016 LA Film Invasion film festival. He’s currently directing a documentary and web series on artist Ken Hiratsuka. \nFiore’s first feature film script\, The Utopia Virus\, finished in the top ten of the 2005 Final Draft Big Break screenwriting contest. He also wrote the Wassup Obama ad\, described by Salon.com as one of the most creative of the 2008 presidential campaign and winner of a Cannes Lion. He’s currently working on a series of film treatments for a Beijing based production company. \nFiore’s film work has directly influenced his art over the years\, in his use of appropriated imagery\, presentation of sequential images\, and in the cinematically dynamic composition of his mosaic photography. Fiore is represented by the Ethan Pettit Gallery. \nWebsites: \nchrisfiore.nyc\ngoodwomanmovie.com\nthekenstones.com\nabillionbeautifuldays.com \nArt Resume \nEducation: \nBachelor of Fine Arts\, Antioch College\, Yellow Springs\, Ohio\, 1984. \nOne Person Show \n1991 Space Case Gallery\, P.S. 122: NYC \nGuest Artist: \n2017 Nobuko Tsuruta\, 12 Years\, Tenri Gallery\, NYC \nGroup Shows : \n2015 Spring Salon\, Ethan Pettit Gallery\, Brooklyn \n2015 Morphopolis\, Ethan Pettit Gallery\, Brooklyn \n2007 Sun Pictures to Megapixels\, WAH Art Center\, Brooklyn \n2004 Projekt30 : Juried online group show \n1999 triad: an observation of artist/friendship triangles\, Vibrant Gallery\, NYC \n1999 CG ART\, KOAP Gallery\, NYC \n1997 Trip\, Gallery T.Y.K-Two\, Tokyo\, Japan \n1997 Future in 3D\, KOAP Gallery\, NYC \n1996 Cupid\, KOAP Gallery\, NYC \n1995 Blood in the Heart\, KOAP Gallery\, NYC \n1990 Possible Photography\, Ward Nasse Gallery\, NYC \n1990 Epoche Sex Salon\, Epoche Gallery\, Williamsburg\, Brooklyn \n1989 The Gridlock Exhibit\, Minor Injury Gallery\, Williamsburg\, Brooklyn \n1988 CyberFunk\, The Zone\, Williamsburg\, Brooklyn \n1987 The Zone Show\, The Zone\, Williamsburg\, Brooklyn

SUMMARY:Exhibition:  Paintings by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida
DESCRIPTION:CRS presents “The Only Person in the Vast World! Practice Accessing Vital Source Through Art\,” an exhibition of acrylic paintings on burlap by Yoshihiro Youkee Nishida that explores the relationship between materials and between materials and artist. The exhibition will be on view from December 4\, 2017 – February 6\, 2018. \nThink of the painted object dancing. In this art series the painting and the burlap are dancing together as one object in space. The painting and the burlap exist in a symbiotic relationship with each other. Without both together the art would not exist. The confluence of energy\, like the Dance of Shiva\, is the cause of creation. A reciprocity exists between the materials\, textures\, colors\, paint and media used in this series. One might say this of the materials of any art works; here\, the artist asks us to focus on it and enter into relationship with the energies of the materials. We might feel some life force in the materials\, some sense of their participation in the creation\, of their volition even\, and of the artist’s gratitude. We might feel as if the artist is collaborating with the materials\, and that we\, by meditating on this\, join in the relationship. \nMaterials: Burlap\, Acrylic paint marker\, Acrylic \nArtist Statment: \n“Art de Genki” is the name I have given to my art. It means Art through Vital Energy. My approach to art changed after moving to New York City and working full time as a gardener. Previously I was a full time artist working inside a studio. Now I am a part time artist. As a gardener in Battery Park City Parks\, I work outside in all seasons and in all weather conditions. Since 2006\, from April through October on weekends and holidays I create chalk drawings in the park. This is one of my major forms of Art. The park itself has become my studio and the pavement is my canvas. \nI am very aware of Nature all around me:  sky\, river\, clouds\, trees\, plants\, flowers\, animals\, and many people. I sense the energy of the world around me. \nWhile creating my drawings in public I feel that I am also a performance artist as people are watching my creative process. I am also observing myself drawing. Yet while I am drawing I am not so much aware of the chalk\, the pavement or the movement of my hands. More deeply\, I am open to the Vital Energy flowing through me and around me. I am practicing deeply and delivering my energy over my art. Art has become my Spiritual Practice. \nBIO: \nYoukee was born in Kyoto\, Japan. After receiving a law degree from Kwansei Gakuin University\, he decided to pursue his true passion – art – which brought him to the United States. He has completed MFA programs in printmaking and lithography at the Otis Art Institute and Cranbrook Academy of Art\, and currently lives in New York. \nHis solo shows over the past 20 years have included exhibitions at the following venues: \n\n2004 Gallery MOMO in Tokyo\, Japan\n2004 Osaka Sogo Design School in Osaka\, Japan\n1999 Maruka Moko Show Room in Hiroshima\, Japan\n1998 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1998 Pinpoint Art Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1997 Kumamoto Pref. Art Museum in Kumamoto\, Japan\n1997 Osaka Contemporary Art Center in Osaka\, Japan\n1996 LA FONTE Gallery in Utsunomiya\, Tochigi\, Japan\n1994 OJAI Center For The Arts\, Ojai\, Calif.\n1991 Dentsu AD Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 HALS Gallery in Tokyo\, Japan\n1990 TOSO Show Room in Tokyo\, Japan\n1986 ARTSPACE INC. Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1986 MM SHINO Gallery in Los Angeles\, Calif.\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n1984 ATHEN Gallery in Tokyo in Japan\n\nHe is often found creating art at Battery Park City Park on sunny days. \nYoukee’s complete resume can be read at CRS. His “soul profile” is below: \nWhen I was a student on the way home from my part time job one day\, I felt I would be a person to be alone with myself looking up over the sky! What did I mean by that? I just let it go without thinking deeper for a long time. After graduating from college\, I started studying art in Los Angeles. Then I moved to New York. As a street artist here after releasing myself from a limited studio to the open space in the park\, the Sun\, Wind\, Rain\, trees\, flowers\, birds\, all other nature\, including wild animals\, tourists\, walkers\, joggers\, in all other people and nature\, I continue drawing my paintings there patiently…. noticing and observing myself alone in such an environment…. \nAlas……this is “The Only person (being myself\, without anyone nor family) in the vast world!”\nNow I understood. \nBeing myself and being in the present moment by observing everything around me and my soul…from this comes oneness with the universe\, nothing needed! Just Be! \nhttp://www.artdegenki.com

DESCRIPTION:CRS invites you to an intimate afternoon of music and meditation with concert pianist\, music therapist and Hug Music Founder Kana Kamitsubo Markovic and CRS Founder Yasuko Kasaki. Kana magically weaves our visualizations into her music\, improvisationally creating rich tapestries of sounds with emotional depth and breadth to compliment her own haunting compositions. In Kana’s work\, listening and playing\, process and performance are one. Exquisitely attuning herself to the conversation between her deepest impulses and our own\, she allows her spirit to translate this dance of giving and receiving into music in which we can all recognize ourselves. \nThe event will take place in the award-winning White Room at CRS on Sunday\, December 17 from 2 – 3;30 pm. Tickets are $30 at the door and $25 through 12/16 online\, by phone (212-677-8621)\, and at the door. \nhttp://www.hugmusicny.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/kana-impro-twinkle-spider-oyasumi.mp3\nKana Kamitsubo is a pianist trained in classical & jazz\, a board-certified music therapist\, as well as a founder/owner of Hug Music\, a music school located in Queens. She began her piano study by the age of three. During her childhood\, she spent most of the time playing her piano by improvising and composing. Her favorite thing was to reflect the energy around her (energy of her home\, family\, people who visited her) on her improvisation and she would improvise endlessly without knowing it was a very special talent she was given. As her piano study became more serious\, she stopped playing freely but started to focus on “what others would think is good” by following her piano teachers’ advise. At 19 years old\, she felt extremely detached from music and struggled. \nThen\, she decided to study jazz piano. At 20 years old\, she met her piano teacher\, Takeshi\, who told her\, “Listen to the music inside of you first\, and strike the keys to play the melody you just heard.” He taught the importance of being authentic in the music and following where the music wants to go instead of thinking what to play. In order to fully understand his words and also master this\, Kana started to record herself at every single opportunity (practicing\, rehearsal\, performances)\, listening to the recordings\, and taking notes on what she was feeling/thinking when she played and how it affected her music. After years of doing this practice\, she has concluded that when ego takes over\, the music loses its life; when she listens to the spirit and plays music with it\, the music spreads love and she is able to connect with others. This has become her philosophy as a musician. \nAt age 25\, she was awarded a Berklee World Scholarship and moved to Boston to further study piano performance and music therapy. There\, her approach was validated when\, as a music therapy student\, she began working with individuals with disabilities. She cultivated her clinical skills based on her philosophy and was recognized by Berklee College of Music for demonstrating extraordinary therapeutic musical skills. As a result\, she received numerous awards\, and afterward was hired by Berklee to help develop their “Clinical Music Improvisation” curriculum. \nAs a licensed clinician\, she has worked with diverse populations including children with special needs and has developed her own method that has been proven to be effective for children with autism spectrum disorder. While she works as an active music therapist\, she also composes and performs with her husband as an acoustic duo unit called Yagull. The past few years\, Kana started to study A Course in Miracles (ACIM) with Yasuko Kasaki and Naoko Ono. Kana has discovered that the process of improvising (listening to the music inside of her mind and then striking the keys to play the music she heard) mirrors ACIM’s direction to listen to our inner voice. \nYasuko Kasaki strongly advised Kana to perform for others more actively. Kana further cultivates her spirituality and musicality and realized that creating music with others (by reflecting the energy around her) is a very special ability she has been given. Now Kana knows that she wants to devote her life to sharing it. \nhttp://www.hugmusicny.com \nhttp://www.yagull.com

SUMMARY:Prayer for Amara: Sound Meditation + Whirling
DESCRIPTION:Dear friends of CRS and the Williams family\, \nCRS invites you to join us for our monthly sound and movement meditation. We gather to remember the divine strength within ourselves and to support the family of Kenji and Sayoko Williams’ five-year-old daughter\, Amara\, who is growing up with a brain tumor and all the challenges that presents. Our minds will join with Amara’s prayer circle of hundreds of people around the world. \nFollowing a crystal singing bowl meditation (CRS healer Miyoko Satoh) and prayer circle (CRS Founder Yasuko Kasaki)\, we’ll whirl together with live percussion by Saco Yasuma\, Senko Nishimura\, and friends. Whirling is a devotional dance practice that Amara’s mother\, performing artist Lale Sayoko\, has been exploring as a way of uniting her dance practice with her prayers for her daughter. No experience is necessary. \nThe participation fee is $20 with advanced registration and $25 on Dec 21. 50% of the proceeds go to the Williams family. \nThrough whirling\, we learn to trust ourselves to go off balance\, to be dizzy\, to surrender control as we give ourselves over to prayer and connect with a greater power\, the still center within\, around which we turn\, that we may share our divine strength and bear witness to the divinity in others. \nIf you are quiet and in a state of prayer when you Turn\, offering everything of yourself to God\, then when your body is spinning\, there is a completely still point in the center… The heavens respond; and all the invisible kingdoms join in the dance. But the world does not understand. They think we Turn in order to go into some sort of trance. It is true that sometimes we do go into that state you call ecstasy\, but that is only when we know and experience at the same time. We do not Turn for ourselves. We turn around in the way we do so that the Light of God may descend upon the earth. As you act as a conduit in the Turn\, the light comes through the right hand\, and the left hand brings it into this world… We turn for God and for the world\, and it is the most beautiful thing you can imagine. — Mevlevi Shaikh Suleyman Hyatt Dede \nAbout Lale Sayoko \nLale was one of the founding members of Japan’s famous Samanyolu professional bellydance group\, and has since developed her own solo career touring with UK’s Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers on a 44 city tour of the UK\, to Turkey’s Baba Zula\, to New York’s Bella Gaia multimedia Earth from Space journey show. Appearing in Japanese and American magazines and newspapers\, Lale aspires for dance to be a powerful communicator though traditional technique and spiritual embodiment. She has lately been studying Sufi dance with Rana Gorgani.\nhttp://www.lalesayoko.com

It is true that sometimes we do go into that state you call ecstasy\, but that is only when we know and experience at the same time. We do not Turn for ourselves. We turn around in the way we do so that the Light of God may descend upon the earth. As you act as a conduit in the Turn\, the light comes through the right hand\, and the left hand brings it into this world… We turn for God and for the world\, and it is the most beautiful thing you can imagine. — Mevlevi Shaikh Suleyman Hyatt Dede \nAbout Lale Sayoko \nLale was one of the founding members of Japan’s famous Samanyolu professional bellydance group\, and has since developed her own solo career touring with UK’s Mugenkyo Taiko Drummers on a 44 city tour of the UK\, to Turkey’s Baba Zula\, to New York’s Bella Gaia multimedia Earth from Space journey show. Appearing in Japanese and American magazines and newspapers\, Lale aspires for dance to be a powerful communicator though traditional technique and spiritual embodiment. She has lately been studying Sufi dance with Rana Gorgani.\nhttp://www.lalesayoko.com

SUMMARY:CRS Healing Circle:  Prayer\, Sound Meditation + Whirling
DESCRIPTION:CRS invites you to join us for our monthly healing circle. We gather to meditate\, drum\, sing\, dance\, pray and remember the divine strength within ourselves. We also support the family of Kenji and Sayoko Williams’ five-year-old daughter\, Amara\, who is growing up with a brain tumor and all the challenges that presents. Our minds will join with Amara’s prayer circle of hundreds of people around the world. \nPlease feel free to bring your frame drum\, rattle\, flute\, whistle\, chimes\, singing bowl\, or other instrument. You don’t need to be experienced. Together\, we will learn to listen to one another and express ourselves and find Oneness of intention. \nThe participation fee is $20 with advanced registration and $25 on Jan 18. \nThrough whirling\, we learn to trust ourselves to go off balance\, to be dizzy\, to surrender control as we give ourselves over to prayer and connect with a greater power\, the still center within\, around which we turn\, that we may share our divine strength and bear witness to the divinity in others. \nIf you are quiet and in a state of prayer when you Turn\, offering everything of yourself to God\, then when your body is spinning\, there is a completely still point in the center… The heavens respond; and all the invisible kingdoms join in the dance.

SUMMARY:Four Seasons in NY:  Gems of Japanese Music & Tea Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:CRS & Mar Creation\, Inc. invite you to discover traditional Japanese music by the acclaimed koto and shamisen player and singer Yoko Reikano Kimura\, followed by a rare tea ceremony by Souheki Mori (tea master at Tea Whisk and Setsugekka). After the ceremony\, matcha tea by Setsugekka and beautiful Japanese seasonal sweets prepared by Rin NYC will be served.  \nThe next concert will take place on Friday\, January 19\, 2018 at 7 pm at CRS. Tickets are $40 and include the tea ceremony and delicious wagashi (sweets). Seating is limited and advanced purchased (online\, by phone 212-677-8621\, or in person at CRS) is encouraged. \nKimura will perform four classical pieces\, including Chanoyu Ondo – The Lead of Tea Ceremony\, while Mori leads Shin-no-gyou daisu temae (真之行台子点前)\, one of the most formal and elaborate styles of tea serving that is very rarely shared in New York. There will also be a surprise musical guest! \nMUSICAL PROGRAM \nKokin-sho for solo jiuta sangen (composed by Seiho Kineya)\nRokudan no Shirabe (composed by Yatsuhashi-kengyo)\nChanoyu Ondo – The Lead of Tea Ceremony – (composed by Yaezaki-kengyo)\nSpring Sea (composed by Michio Miyagi) \n“…Yoko Reikano Kimura\, playing the shamisen and singing\, is superb….” — New York Times \n“…Kimura’s performance on the solo shamisen was quite stunning. An elegant refined presence perfectly poised\, she played with precision\, beauty and the utmost confidence….” — San Francisco Examiner \nAfter many centuries\, the brilliance of traditional Japanese music is still being passed on to the present day. Come and experience the sounds of koto and shamisen and enjoy the taste of the four seasons here in New York. This concert series will feature each season’s representative traditional works along with the colorful and delicate Japanese style confectionaries. \nThis will be the second concert of Volume 3 of this seasonal series of music concerts called Four Seasons in New York — Gems of Japanese Music. The subsequent concerts in this season are planned for April 1 and Aug 12 of 2018 at 4 pm. \n\nEach season is expressed through ingredients. Spring traditionally begins with sakura (cherry blossoms)\, broccoli rabe\, strawberries and raspberries\, followed by elderflower\, rose\, edamame and sansho (Japanese pepper) in summer. As autumn approaches we’ll pick chrysanthemum\, apples\, grapes\, chestnuts and hazelnuts; and yuzu and kumquats in winter…. Even within one season\, the taste and the form change gradually from hashiri through nagori. \nmochi Rin / Bite-sized mochi dessert made with organic bean paste\, seasonally fruits and flowers in NY. \nWe present a new type of mochi that doesn’t quite exist in Japan\, by infusing New York’s locally-sourced ingredients into Japan’s popular traditional dessert —the stuffed mochi rounds\, such as daifuku and sakura-mochi — and mixing in rin\, the element of restrained grace.  http://www.rin-nyc.com \n  \n  \nMore about Yoko Reikano Kimura \nAs a frequent soloist and collaborator\, Japanese born Koto/Shamisen performer and singer Yoko Reikano Kimura has performed in NYC\, Chicago\, Tokyo\, Kyoto and many other cities\, featuring a wide-ranging repertoire from classical Japanese music to improvisational pieces.

SUMMARY:Monthly Workshop Series: Saturdays\, Self-Care & Sisterhood
DESCRIPTION:“More women cry\, loudly or silently\, every fraction of every moment\, in every town of every country\, than anyone–man or woman–realizes. We cry for our children\, our lovers\, our parents\, and ourselves.\nWe cry in shame because we feel no right to cry\, and we cry in peace because we feel it’s time we did cry. We cry for the world. Yet we think we cry alone. \nWe feel that no one hears\, that there is no listening that matters. And we must all listen now.” \n– Marianne Williamson \nThis monthly workshop series is for the woman who refuses to brave these socially\, racially\, politically\, and economically trying times alone. It is for the woman who desires an overhaul and transformation of her relationship to wellbeing\, as it relates to the myriad of stressors that overcome us\, as both individuals and within the context of being in community. These workshops will explore a definition of self-care that does not require putting off your wellbeing until a holiday break\, nor does it require a membership at an expensive yoga studio. Together we will begin an inquiry into perceiving ourselves and our communities as resources to tap for resilience and wellbeing moment to moment and day by day. You will gain lasting practical tools to make self-care an integrated and powerful support for your life. Through yoga\, mindfulness\, journaling\, partner work\, and group discussion\, the creation of a powerful and playful sister circle\, and occasional guest facilitators\, you will unearth answers to these questions and more: \nHow does my breath support my physiological wellbeing? \nWhat forms of movement\, exercise and nourishment does my body need to feel balanced and healthy so that I can feel at home in my own skin? \nHow do I find time to slow down\, restore myself and avoid burnout? \nHow can I transform my busy mind into an ally? \nHow do I get better at aligning my intentions with actionable steps and the realization of my dream of a life I love? \nHow do I create emotional\, physical and mental balance so that I can sustain the demands of my partner\, my family\, my profession\, and the social and emotional challenges of the times AND maintain my wellbeing? \nHow do I create community around my self-care efforts so that I am supported by those with like intentions on an ongoing basis? \nWhat brings me joy and how do I infuse play back into my life? \nWeek 1 – Saturday\, January 27\, 11-2pm: Creating Community & Exploring Wellbeing Toolkit Essentials* \nNOTE: All workshops in this monthly series are appropriate for participants of ALL levels of yoga and mindfulness experience. \nCost:\nEarly bird rate by January 20: $45\nAfter January 20: $60 \nTo register\, click here:\nhttp://crystalmccrearyyoga.com/schedule/workshops/\n \nFor more details\, please email cmccrearyyoga@gmail.com\, or register today because space is limited!

SUMMARY:Concert:  Megumi Saruhashi Quartet —  Arabian Fairies
DESCRIPTION:Boarder-crossing violinist Megumi Saruhashi presents “From the Music Room in the Inner Space – Arabian Fairies\,” an evening of her original compositions in the award-winning White Room at CRS on Saturday 1/27/18 from 7 – 8:30 pm. Joining her are Alon Nechushtan on piano\, Brian Prunka on oud\, and Dan Kurfirst on percussion. Tickets are $25 and are available online at https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3231800. \n Megumi Saruhashi’s music is ignited by a wide range of influences\, including Arabic music\, jazz\, classical\, tango\, gospel\, minimalism and many more. Focusing on the intersections and connections between music and the soul\, Saruhashi uses her musical training to form new and unexpected alliances between musical genres. Believing herself to be a conduit that synthesizes the musical and spiritual realms\, Saruhashi refers to herself as a “hollow bone.” She strives to draw out the consciousness of listeners and connect on a deeply spiritual level that cuts across cultural and sonic barriers. \n“My ability to flow between different musical genres and cultures means I have the skill to create a musical alchemy. Responding to the whispers of the internal world of spirit\, I draw this into the present moment. Being able to be a hollow bone – a flute of the music of God – and share that music that I receive from the source and to be able to share that with the world is my passion. I’m a transmitter of God\, as all of us are.” — Megumi Saruhashi \nMegumi is a native of Japan and currently resides in Brooklyn. She has performed in almost every corner of the world from Carnegie Hall to Lebanon and for audiences as large as 60\,000. Every year she travels to the Middle East to provide musical workshops and concerts at refugee camps\, and her work has been featured on ABC\, CBS\, and Fox News. http://www.megumisaruhashi.com \nAlon Nechushtan’s music adventures has brought him to various far corners of the globe such as the Yokohama ‘Rejoicing Sounds’ Festival in Japan with his contemporary orchestral compositions\, The Manila Cultural Center of the Arts\, with his Clarinet Concerto for the Philippines Philharmonic Orchestra\, The Sao-Paolo Brazil Jewish Music Festival with his groove based Quintet Talat\, Toronto and Montreal with his words beyond Jazz Trio and Tel Aviv New Music Biannale with his Compositions for Large Ensemble. A resident of New York City\, Alon has performed in venues such as Carnegie Hall\, Jazz @ Lincoln Center\, Central Park Summer Stage\, The Blue Note Jazz Club and the Kennedy Center with his projects as a band leader of various groups or as an in demand sideman. In October 2015 the Kennedy Center comissioned from Alon Nechushtan a new piece for Billy Strayhorn Centennial Celebration\, followed by a Far East tour in China and Phillipines\, along with Jazz Festivals in Belo Horizonte-Brazil\, Israel. In 2017 the Smithsonian Museum in Washington\, D.C commissioned from Alon Nechushtan a new program of Thelonious Monk’s less known compositions. All About Jazz magazine called him “A fantastic pianist-composerwith abundant chemistry and boundless eclectisism”\, while DownBeat Magazine  recognizes “A talent to watch\, with a surfeit of ideas\, an unbridled spirit and bold\,two-fisted sense of Architecture.” http://musicalon.com \nPrior to moving to Brooklyn in 2003\, Brian Prunka was living and performing in New Orleans\, where he spent his musically formative years honing his musical skills immersed in the jazz community. While his background was in traditional and modern jazz\, as well as the rock and blues music of his teenage years\, Brian has always found himself drawn to a wide range of music without regard to boundaries\, national or otherwise. In the late 90s\, fate introduced him to the oud\, and he had an instant and profound connection with this storied instrument. A chance conversation led him to begin studying with the renowned virtuoso Simon Shaheen and ultimately to becoming involved in the Arabic music community as well. He has sought over the years to find ways to bring together the essential characteristics of all the music he loves through both his improvisational style and his many diverse compositions. These days equally proficient on both guitar and oud\, Brian composes and performs jazz and middle-eastern influenced music with his own projects (such as the Near East River Ensemble) and with musicians such as Michael Bates and Simon Shaheen. He currently performs with Nashaz\, Sharq Attack\, Zikrayat\, the Bil Afrah Project and others. He has performed throughout the U.S. and internationally with Simon Shaheen\, Michael Bates\, Ravish Momin\, the New York Arabic Orchestra\, The Vancouver International Orchestra\, Zikrayat\, The Near East River Ensemble\, and others. In addition to national and international events\, he has performed in New York at The Stone\, Tonic\, the Knitting Factory\, the River to River Festival\, Symphony Space\, Alwan for the Arts\, Trinity Church\, Rooftop Films\, Bronx River Arts Center\, Bethlehem MusikFest\, the Abode of the Message\, and CBGBs\, among others. He has received grants from the Brooklyn Arts Council and NY Dept. of Cultural Affairs\, and was an instructor in oud and Arabic music theory at Simon Shaheen’s Arabic Music Retreat from 2012-2014.Brian Prunka currently performs on D’angelico and Gibson guitars and Fender amplifiers. http://www.brianprunka.com \nDan Kurfirst is an NYC based percussionist\, composer and improviser. Born and raised in Brooklyn\, NY\, his music is a product of his good fortune to have been brought up amongst people of all different cultures and master practitioners of varying musical styles. He has formally studied the Drumset with Nasheet Waits\, Tariq Snare and Gregg Bendian. He has studied percussion under the tutelage of Shane Shanahan and Hakan Kaya. He has performed extensively in the New York City world music and improvised music scenes for years and has performed with various groups throughout Europe\, India and the Middle East. The beautiful human beings that he has had the pleasure to work with are too numerous to list in total\, but some of them are: Gabriel Marin\, Matt Darriau\, Brandon Terzic\, Adam Rudolph\, Daniel Carter\, Ras Moshe\, Daro Behroozi\, Kane Mathis\, Brian Prunka\, Abraham Mennen and Ben Cohen. Dan leads Spheric Sound Unit\, a group dedicated to exploring cultural syncretism through music. He also co-leads Ensemble Fanaa\, a trio which explores the intersection between African American\, North African and Middle Eastern musical traditions. He recently worked as Musical Director for the Childrens Museum of Manhattan’s America To Zanzibar exhibit\, helping to develop a touchscreen application for the “A Children to explore music of the Islamic world from India to Egypt to Indonesia. http://dankurfirstmusic.com
