Biographies Jeremy Denk, piano Jeremy Denk has established himself as one of America s most thoughtprovoking, multi-faceted, and compelling artists. He has appeared as soloist with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the symphony orchestras of Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, and London. He regularly gives recitals in New York, Washington, Boston, Philadelphia, and throughout the United States. This season includes a return to Carnegie Hall in recital, as part of a 13-city tour of the U.S., as well as a performance of Bach s complete set of six keyboard concertos in a single evening with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Upcoming engagements include tours with the Australian Chamber Orchestra, the San Francisco Symphony, and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Denk is known for his original and insightful writing on music, praised by Alex Ross for its arresting sensitivity and wit. Denk s writing has appeared in the New Yorker, New Republic, and on the front page of the New York Times Book Review. His website think denk, recounting his experiences of touring, performing, and practicing, was recently selected for inclusion in the Library of Congress Web Archives. Denk looks forward to performing and curating as music director of the 2014 Ojai Music Festival, for which he is also composing the libretto to a semi-satirical opera. In 2012, Denk made his debut as a Nonesuch Records artist with a pairing of masterpieces old and new: Beethoven s final piano sonata and selected György Ligeti Etudes. The disc was named one of the best discs of 2012 by the New Yorker, NPR, and the Washington Post. Later this year, Denk will release a recording of Bach s Goldberg Variations. He has a long-standing attachment to the music of American visionary Charles Ives, and his recording of Ives s two Piano Sonatas was selected for many best of the year lists. Last season, Denk was invited by Michael Tilson Thomas to appear as a soloist in the San Francisco Symphony s American Mavericks festival, and he recorded Henry Cowell s piano concerto with the orchestra. He has cultivated relationships with many living composers, and has several commissioning projects currently in progress. Denk has toured frequently with violinist Joshua Bell, and their album French Impressions was recently released on the Sony Classical label, winning the 2012 Echo Klassik award. He also regularly collaborates with cellist Steven Isserlis. He has appeared at numerous festivals, including the Italian and American Spoleto Festivals, and the Santa Fe Chamber Music, Verbier, Ravinia, Tanglewood, Aspen, and Mostly Mozart Festivals. He lives in New York City, and his web site and blog are at jeremydenk.net. 21C Media Group, June 2013

Michael Alexander, conductor Michael Alexander is the Director of Orchestras and Interim Director of the School of Music at Kennesaw State University and serves as the Music Director of the Georgia Symphony Orchestra. Active as a guest conductor, he has conducted in Europe, Australia and at various places in the United States, including performances with the Central Wisconsin Symphony Orchestra, Illinois Valley Symphony Orchestra, the Maikop Symphony Orchestra and the Novgorod String Orchestra in Russia, the Bacau and Ploiesti Philharmonic in Romania, and the Catania Music Festival in Italy. In the summer of 2004 and 2009, he served as Music Director for the Madison Savoyards Opera Company. He has also appeared as a guest conductor four times with the Summer Music Clinic Orchestra at the University of Wisconsin and with the 2003-2006 Maud-Powell Music Festival Orchestra in LaSalle, IL. In March 2010, he conducted the 11-12 Georgia All-State Orchestra, and in the summer of 2011, was a guest conductor at the Highlands Music Festival. Under his leadership, the Georgia Symphony has presented critically acclaimed performances and has seen enormous growth. During his eight year tenure, GYSO has added to its core of professional musicians, removed all debt it was under, expanded its budget, and created a comprehensive youth orchestra and chorus program with approximately 400 students from across the region. In the summer of 2003, Dr. Alexander completed his Doctor of Musical Arts Degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in orchestral conducting. Prior to his current appointments, he has served on the faculties at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, and Ripon College. Dr. Alexander began the orchestra program at Kennesaw State University and under his direction the KSU Orchestra has performed at the 2009 Georgia Music Educators Association Annual In-Service, hosted and performed at the 2010 College Orchestra Directors Association National Conference, and completed a three concert tour of Beijing and Xian, China in January of 2011.
