MUSIC
ON SUNDAY, JUNE 21, FROM 11 IN THE MORNING
he streets are alive
with the sound of music! UNTIL 10 AT NIGHT, musicians of all ages and musical
Make Music New York, described by city
officials as “ONE OF THE LARGEST
MUSICAL EVENTS IN THE
CITY’S HISTORY,”
is back for a third year
of free concerts in public
spaces throughout the
five boroughs of New York
City, all on the first day
of summer. MMNY takes
place simultaneously with
similar festivities in more
than 300 cities around the
world — a global celebration
of music making!
persuasions — from hip hop to opera, Latin jazz to punk
rock — will perform on streets, sidewalks, stoops, plazas,
cemeteries, parks and gardens. Says The New York Times,
“You might hear a string quartet on one block and a
mariachi band on the next.” Featured performers include
jazz pianist RANDY WESTON, French tennis player-turnedpop star YANNICK NOAH, ARTURO O’FARRILL’S AFRO-LATIN
JAZZ ORCHESTRA, and punk legends REAGAN YOUTH.
This year, MMNY introduces MASS APPEAL, bringing
together hundreds of musicians to play pieces written for
single types of instruments, from accordions to bagpipes,
ukuleles to violins. Read all about it on the next page!

in your neighborhood. Or visit

THREE EXCITING
FOR 2009, MMNY INTRODUCES
NEW WAYS TO JOIN THE JUNE 21ST FESTIVAL.
Mass Appeal: Twenty-two groups of musicians that play the same
instrument will band together at venues across the City to perform
massive pieces arranged especially for them. From accordions to veenas,
saxophones to guitars, anyone can bring their own instrument along and join in.
Mass Appeal events are marked throughout the program, in the same
color as this box. If you are a musician and you’d like to join the band, visit
WWW.MAKEMUSICNY.ORG/MASSAPPEAL for full details on what to do.
musical Handshake: At the end of the day, these Mass Appeal
“tribes” will gather in Central Park to share a “Musical Handshake” –
a way for diverse instruments to greet each other, and begin improvisational
conversations. This year’s handshake was written by singer/harpist
ELISSA WEISS, who based the motif on a birdsong she heard last summer.
Say hello to your fellow musicians with this:

musical Instrument Petting Zoo: MMNY and THE TIMES
SQUARE ALLIANCE will close Music Row (W. 48th Street between 6th and
7th Avenues) for a Musical Instrument Petting Zoo. Music stores on the
block will set up drum sets, keyboards, guitars, woodwinds, brass, and strings
on the street, for passersby to listen to, learn about, and test drive. Professional
musicians will stop by to give short lessons throughout the day. All musicians
and non-musicians are welcome. 12 – 6 pm.

PUNK ISLAND ’09
CBGB may be gone, but the spirit of NYC punk is alive
and kicking hard.
See for yourself at the 2nd annual PUNK ISLAND,
Sunday, June 21 on Governors Island, when Make
Music New York transforms the ordinarily quiet
outpost into a punk/hardcore paradise.
Over 70 bands will appear on twelve stages scattered
around the island, as free ferries transport revelers from the Battery
Maritime Building at the tip of Lower Manhattan to Governors Island.
Just like the rest of Make Music New York, all performances are outdoors and
completely free.
Punk Island begins at 11 am and ends at 5 pm sharp. Ferries leave every 30 minutes from
the Battery Maritime Terminal, adjacent to the Staten Island Ferry in Lower Manhattan.
Take the 1 train to South Ferry Station, or the R train to Whitehall St. Station. The ferry
to Governors Island is free. No alcoholic beverages, pets, or weapons are permitted.
