A double bass rests back stage during a break in a rehearsal of Symphony Silicon Valley
This is a photograph from my ongoing project related to classical music performing groups and the musicians who belong to them. It falls into a category I have mentioned before, namely photographs of people and things that happen to turn up in the small areas of interesting backstage light that I have discovered. As I have worked several venues over the past two years I have gotten to know many things about them intimately, and one of those things is the location of the many little unexpected pools of interesting light. Sometimes I "stalk" those spots, just waiting for someone or something to happen there, and I always check them as I walk around the theater with my camera.
This is, obviously, a visually simple image—just a double bass lying on its side during a break in a rehearsal. (I was attracted by the contrast between the warm colors and interesting textures of the instrument and the "industrial" surroundings with their signs of heavy use and even minor damage.) From my point of view, however, it could lead to thoughts of a whole range of other things. I'm fascinated by what an instrument is and what it isn't. Instruments, musical and otherwise, are often remarkable things in that they allow us to do things that we can't otherwise do with our minds and bodies alone. The instruments of classical (and many other types of) music are fundamentally pretty simple things and often the result of some really "primitive" technologies, yet they are remarkably adapted to the purposes for which they are intended, generally as a result of a long and complex evolutionary process. But in the end, I would argue that even the most beautiful and sophisticated instrument is no more than a tool, and the really interesting things are how the tool is used by a person or persons to produce something far more meaningful and interesting than the instrument itself.

Still trying to make up my mind on a 100 project but thought I better start shooting again before I forget how.
Noce is a new Jazz club that opened downtown. Loved the feel of the backstage door. I'll probably revisit this later at night.

This full-line Macy's was opened as Bamberger's in 1969 in The Nanuet Mall (now known as The Shops at Nanuet) Last year, several departments were re-shuffled on the top level, creating space for a Macy's Backstage store which opened in April. On 3 sides, the store is branded as Macy's (with brown 1980's Macy's signs) and on one side, it is branded "Macy's Backstage".
-------------
The store was opened as Bamberger's in 1969, one of two department stores (along with Sears) which anchored The Nanuet Mall in Nanuet, NY. The mall was a smaller enclosed mall which served the growing Rockland County, NY and Bergen County, NJ suburbs, located Northwest of New York City. It had a basic design, with Bamberger's at one end and Sears at the other with a strip of stores in-between.
The store became Macy's in 1986 and with little competition in the immediate area, it was very successful. In the mid-1990's, a Stern's was added to the mall (later Boscov's). Shortly thereafter, construction of the massive Palisades Center Mall was announced 3 miles away, and when the mall opened, the Nanuet Mall suffered.
In 2006, the Filene's at The Palisades Center mall became Macy's and plans were announced to de-mall the Nanuet Mall and demolish the Stern's/Boscov's.
The Shops at Nanuet opened in 2013. It is basically the old mall, with a street built in-between the 2 anchor stores in the same spot where the old mall was located. A Fairway Market has been built on the site of the old Stern's/Boscov's store.
Update: This Macy's closed in early 2019; Sears closed in 2018 and Fairway Market closed in 2020.
