Oregon Mozart Players | 317 Goodpasture Island Rd, Ste A, Eugene, OR 97401 | 541-345-6648 | oregonmozartplayers.org Kelly Kuo Artistic Director & Conductor Praised by the Cincinnati Enquirer as “a leader of exceptional musical gifts, who has a clear technique on the podium and an impressive rapport with audiences,” Maestro Kelly Kuo brings a dynamic versatility and nuance to a diverse repertoire, which includes over 90 operas and an expansive symphonic repertoire as well. Recent operatic engagements include Lyric Opera of Chicago, Seattle Opera, Cincinnati Opera, Indianapolis Opera, Kentucky Opera, Anchorage Opera, and the Janiec Opera Company of the Brevard Music Center. In 2008, Maestro Kuo became the first conductor of Asian descent to lead a performance at the Lyric Opera of Chicago, making his company debut with Porgy and Bess. He has since returned to lead the Chicago premiere of Charlie Parker’s Yardbird and performances featuring artists of the Ryan Opera Center. Upcoming engagements include company debuts with Carmen for Opera Orlando, Don Giovanni for Opera Columbus, and concerts with the Reno Chamber Orchestra and Sunriver Music Festival. Regarding Maestro Kuo’s conducting of Charlie Parker’s Yardbird for the Lyric Opera of Chicago and Seattle Opera, the Chicago Sun Times stated, “Conductor Kelly Kuo and his small but superb orchestra are a seamless match for the singers,” and Bachtrack wrote, “Debuting conductor Kelly Kuo skillfully handled the well- selected 24-piece ensemble in the enormously complex score.” Of his production of Macbeth at Anchorage Opera, the Anchorage Daily news noted, “Top honors should probably go to conductor Kelly Kuo. The sound… was full and taut as Kuo brought out the drama and lyricism. The orchestra played with robust enthusiasm and accuracy.” And of his La traviata for Kentucky Opera, critics stated, “Conductor Kelly Kuo led the Louisville Orchestra Friday with considerable verve, and no shortage of idiomatic delicacy…the sound was balanced and quite full.” Maestro Kuo also led critically praised new productions of Philip Glass’ Galileo Galilei for both Madison Opera and Cincinnati Opera and has served as Music Director and Conductor of the Butler Opera Center at The University of Texas at Austin and on the conducting staff of Santa Fe Opera. World premieres conducted by Maestro Kuo include chamber orchestrations for Jake Heggie’s At the Statue of Venus and Daniel Catán’s La hija de Rappaccini, in addition to the premiere of Daron Hagen’s A Woman in Morocco. As Artistic Director of Oregon Mozart Players, Maestro Kuo recently extended his contract through 2024, having “transformed this chamber group into...a band of professional, enthusiastic, and superior musicians, playing confidently as one unit” (The Register Guard). Recent symphonic engagements have included concerts with Memphis Symphony Orchestra, Malta Philharmonic Orchestra, Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, Lexington Philharmonic, and Ballet Fantastique. Maestro Kuo also curated and conducted the Cincinnati Chamber Orchestra’s inaugural Summermusik festival as Interim Music Director. Maestro Kuo has collaborated with such soloists as Cho-Liang Lin, Mark Kosower, David Shifrin, Mary Dunleavy, Bion Tsang, Anton Nel, Bella Hristova, Inbal Segev, and Elizabeth Rowe. An Oregon native and recipient of a Solti Foundation U.S. Career Assistant Award for young conductors, Kuo continues to concertize as a keyboardist as the only pianist to have studied with two pupils of the Russian virtuoso Vladimir Horowitz. He is the resident pianist for the Zenith Chamber Music Festival and regularly performs recitals with the Kasarah Trio. Maestro Kuo holds a master’s degree in piano performance from the Manhattan School of Music and is an alumnus of the Houston Grand Opera Studio.

  • Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati
    Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati FRANCESCO GESUALDI Accordion Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583 -1643) If we think of the theatre as a place in which audiences not only perceive with their eyes and ears, but also their deeper feelings, then the work presented in this recording Dal II Libro di Toccate is in many respects theatrical. The explanation lies in the fact that one of Francesco 1. Toccata I 4’42 Gesualdi’s particular gifts as a performer is his ability to produce sounds that conjure 2. Toccata II 4’44 up the action underlying the music, and indeed evoke the spaces in which the events 3. Toccata III, da sonarsi alla Levatione 8’51 take place. This is particularly noteworthy when performance is actually separated 4. Toccata IV, da sonarsi alla Levatione 6’58 from the reality of visualization. 5. Toccata VIII, di Durezze e Ligature 5’01 The synaesthetic experience underlying vision and visionary perception is arguably one of the fundamental ingredients of the “Second Practice”, or stile moderno, which Dal I Libro di Toccate aimed at engaging the feelings of the listener. This art was essential to the evocative 6. Partite sopra l'Aria della Romanesca (1–14) 21’49 power of Frescobaldi’s music. In his performance Francesco Gesualdi establishes a particular spatial and temporal Carlo Gesualdo (1566–1613) universe in which the constraints of absolute formal rigour are reconciled with 7. Canzon francese del Principe 6’40 freedom of accentuation and vital breath, so as to invest each execution with the immediacy of originality. In this ability to renew with each rendering, Gesualdi’s Alessandro Solbiati (1956) playing speaks for the way wonderment can forge the essential relationship between 8.

He received a degree from the Lodz Conservatory, while he also got his doctoral degree in law from the University of Warsaw. Tansman preferred to call himself a Polish composer, although his music was highly influenced by neoclassical and French composers; two mentors in particular impacted his music indefinitely- Maurice Ravel and Igor Stravinsky. Although Tansman's music was not as popular as most famous composers, his solo piano performances were sought after internationally. Written in 1952, the Sonatine for Bassoon and Piano is a precise example of how his music combines both neoclassical and French elements of music.
