  • Sharon Robinson Is Recognized Worldwide As a Consummate Artist and One of the Most Outstanding Musicians of Our Time
    Winner of the Avery Fisher Recital Award, the Piatigorsky Memorial Award, the Pro Musicis Award, and a GRAMMY Nominee, cellist Sharon Robinson is recognized worldwide as a consummate artist and one of the most outstanding musicians of our time. Whether as a recitalist, soloist with orchestra, or member of the world-famous Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio, critics, audiences and fellow musicians respond to what the Indianapolis Star has called “A cellist who has simply been given the soul of Caruso.” Her guest appearances with orchestras include the Philadelphia and Min- nesota Orchestras, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, GUEST ARTIST Dallas, Houston, National, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and San Francisco Symphonies, and in Europe, the London Symphony, Helsinki Philharmonic, Zürich’s Tonhalle Orchestra, and the English, Scottish, and Franz Lizst Chamber Orchestras. SHARON ROBINSON Revered for her chamber music performances, Sharon Robinson co-founded the Kalichstein-Laredo-Robinson Trio thirty-eight years ago. She collaborated with Rudolf Serkin and Alexander Schneider at the Malboro Music Festival and has appeared with some of the musical giants of our time, including Isaac Stern, Leon Fleisher, Rudolf Firkušný, Yo-Yo Ma, Engene Istomin, Itzhak Perlman, Jean-Pierre Rampal, Mstislav Rostropovich, Pinchas Zukerman, André Watts, Emanuel Ax, Yefim Bronfman, and the Emerson, Guarneri, Miami, Juilliard, Orion, and Tokyo Quartets. Committed to the music of our time, Sharon Robinson works closely with many of today’s leading composers, including Richard Danielpour, Katherine Hoover, Leon Kirchner, David Ludwig, Arvo Pärt, André Previn, Ned Rorem, Stanley Silverman, Andy Stein, Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, and Joan Tower. She is admired for consortium building, putting together multiple presenters as co- comissioners of both chamber music works and concertos with orchestra.

She has written five works for members of the legendary ensemble over the years, and the trio, joined by guest artists, have recorded three of them for their latest CD, titled Passionate Diversions – A Celebration of Ellen Taaffe Zwilich: Trio for Piano, Violin, and Cello (1987); Septet for Piano Trio and String Quartet (2008), with the Miami String Quartet; and Quintet for Violin, Viola, Cello, Contrabass, and Piano (2010), with violist Michael Tree and contrabassist Harold Robinson.

  • Interview with David Alan Miller
    The Classical Beat By Stephen Dankner INTERVIEW WITH MAESTRO DAVID ALAN MILLER Looking as if a few choice, slightly seedy blocks were snatched up from Greenwich Village and plunked down in Albany’s central city district, Lark Street is a fascinating, hip place. With a row of laid-back watering holes, eateries and latte dens, it was a good place to sit down for awhile with David Alan Miller, the conductor and Music Director of the Albany Symphony Orchestra over a cup of coffee. Miller is a young and energetic man, charming and likeable, irrepressible and ardent. He has the same messianic zeal that Leonard Bernstein had – a mission to convince you of his love for music – all kinds of it – and to prove to you, through the force of his high strung but always cheerful personality, that classical music is really important – it’s not just entertainment or an indulgence for an elite class of sedate listeners. No, it’s absolutely necessary. Listen to him for just a few minutes and you’ll be convinced; I have rarely encountered a more articulate spokesman for the cause. Miller has a talent for speaking off the cuff; his knowledge of music history and the full repertoire of classical music enable him to fire off facts, figures and opinions at his popular pre-concert conversations. It’s clear that audiences love him, judging by the filled seats for the talks one hour before the ASO concerts. Right about now he’s thinking seriously about next season. All orchestras have to schedule their programs at least a year in advance.

I began a tradition of featuring faculty soloists as well as winners of the annual student Concerto Competition, now with an award offered by Olivas Music, providing the orchestra the opportunity to perform significant concerto literature as well as learning the art of accompanying. In 2012, I developed a new chamber orchestra called the “UTEP Virtuosi” focusing on significant string orchestra repertoire. I initiated a concert featuring music in movies and for stage in which that music is presented and integrated via multimedia with lectures and video. It has become the capstone event for the year featuring the artistry of faculty soloists and comments per classical music used in movies and music composed exclusively for that medium. Each year six performances are scheduled. Repertoire for each year covers all eras and styles.
