OPENING JUNE 29 Michael Moore’s SICKO "We are the richest country in the world. We spend more on health care than any other country. Yet we have the worst health care in the Western world. Come on. We can do better than this." - Michael Moore Following on the heels of his Palm d'Or winning FAHRENHEIT 9/11 and his Oscar® winning film BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Moore's new documentary sets out to investigate the American healthcare system. Sticking to his tried-and-true one-man approach, Moore sheds light on the complicated medical affairs of individuals and local communities. This might hurt a little. ***** AFI SILVER GENERAL INFORMATION • Tickets for all shows may be purchased in person at the AFI Silver Box Office (301.495.6700), online (no Fee!) at www.AFI.com/Silver or at the ticket kiosk in the historic lobby. • Tickets & Prices: Tickets are $9.25 general admission and $7.50 for AFI Members, students with valid I.D., children (12 and under) and seniors (65 and over), unless otherwise noted.

The Forgotten Baroque: Masterworks from the Seventeenth Century JENNIFER ELLIS KAMPANI, soprano BARBARA HOLLINSHEAD, alto TONY BOUTTÉ, tenor SUMNER THOMPSON, bass DANIEL ABRAHAM, conductor Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber: Stabat Mater (modern première) Salamon Rossi: Motets and Psalms from Hashirim Asher Lish’lomo (“The Songs of Solomon”) Giacomo Carissimi: Historia di Jephte In this very special concert, The Bach Sinfonia will present the modern premiere of Biber’s Stabat Mater. Daniel Abraham, Sinfonia’s music and artistic director, has edited the composition from manuscripts that survive in Salzburg where Biber was Kapellmeisterfrom 1684 until his death in 1704. The concert also offers the rare opportunity to hear Rossi’s radiant polyphonic Hebrew motets and psalm settings from Hashirim Asher Lish'omo(1623), his important offering of choral compositions for the standard Jewish liturgy. Carissimi’s beautiful oratorio, one of the first pieces in its genre, depicts the story of Jephte, who pledges to sacrifice his only child as an offering for victory in battle. The dramatic musical imagery of Jephte and his daughter’s plight includes battle scenes, songs of triumph, painful parting, and a final, stirring, mournful chorus filled with anguish and lament.

The Other Water Music DANIEL ABRAHAM, conductor Johann Sebastian Bach: Sinfonia from Am abend aber desselbigen Sabbats, BWV 42 Georg Philipp Telemann: works from Tafelmusik,Production II: Concerto for three violins in F Major Quartet for two flutes, bassoon and continuo in D minor Telemann: Water Music As endearing as the famous counterpart by Handel, Telemann’s Water Musicportrays the ebb and flow of the tides on Hamburg’s Elbe River, the sea-goddess Thetis, a lovesick Neptune, a playful Triton, and the gentle Zephyr breezes. Paired with selections from Tafelmusik (“Table Music”), perhaps Telemann’s most famous work, and a grand sinfonia by Bach in celebration of his 333th Birthday, this performance will be a delight for concertgoers.
