3. Bio Ezio Bosso
EZIO BOSSO Direttore stabile e Artistico della StradivariFestival Chamber Orchestra, Sony Classical International Artist dal 2016, a Febbraio 2018 è stato nominato Steinway Artist. Ezio Bosso è inoltre Testimone e Ambasciatore internazionale dell’Associazione Mozart14, eredità ufficiale dei principi sociali ed educativi del Maestro Claudio Abbado, diretta con dedizione dalla figlia Alessandra: una conferma dell’impegno didattico e sociale del maestro Bosso, che dunque si sviluppa non solo nella sua intensa attività di divulgazione, sempre ribadita anche nell’attività concertistica, nell’impegno costante ad aprire, dove possibile, tutte le prove orchestrali o cameristiche - primo direttore a farlo - e nelle sue lezioni aperte a tutti, ma anche nell’attività svolta con Opera Pia Barolo e Medicina a Misura di Donna a Torino. Ezio Bosso è stato il testimone ufficiale della Festa Europea Della Musica per il 2018 e l’unico italiano invitato al Parlamento Europeo per una storica riflessione sullo stato della cultura europea. Direttore d’orchestra e compositore, Ezio Bosso ha ricominciato una più intensa attività concertistica solo dalla seconda metà del 2015. Un percorso in crescendo che nel ’16, dopo aver portato oltre 100.000 spettatori nei migliori teatri con il suo recital per solo pianoforte considerata ormai la tournée di musica classica più importante della storia italiana, lo vede oggi reduce da una lunga serie di trionfi alla testa di alcune delle migliori orchestre italiane e internazionali nella riconquistata veste di direttore d’orchestra, -

For Immediate Release: April 10, 2018 Media
For immediate release: April 10, 2018 Media Contact: Jessica Moore, 970-925-7175, [email protected] ASPEN SANTA FE BALLET ANNOUNCES 2018 SUMMER PERFORMANCE SERIES IN ASPEN, CO Performances by Hubbard Street Dance Chicago & Pilobolus World Premiere Ballet by Bryan Arias • Company Premiere of Alexander Ekman’s Tuplet With multiple company premieres and performances by two popular guest companies, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet brings a strong line-up to Aspen for the 2018 summer season. Aspen Santa Fe Ballet opens the summer with a one-night-only performance that features a world premiere by Bryan Arias, a company premiere of Alexander Ekman’s Tuplet, and the return of Jiri Kylian’s Sleepless (July 7). Formerly a dancer with Nederlands Dans Theater and Kidd Pivot, Bryan Arias is rapidly emerging as an in-demand choreographic voice, receiving the 2017 Princess Grace Choreography Fellowship Award. To date, the majority of this Puerto-Rican born, New York native’s work has taken place in Europe and ASFB is thrilled to be among the very first companies in the United States to commission a new ballet. Swedish choreographer Alexander Ekman’s Tuplet is a swift, pulsating, eighteen-minute tour- de-force that explores the question, what is rhythm? Utilizing a score that employs the dancers’ bodies as percussion instruments, the soundscape is integrated with jazz and original electronic music. The composition bounces back and forth between the live body sounds of the dancers and the recorded score in combinations of irrational rhythms and groupings, to stunning visual and aural effect. In collaboration with the Aspen Music Festival & School, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet presents a two-night encore of this winter’s milestone collaborative project with award-winning pianist Joyce Yang (Aug. -
