Conservatory Artist Series
As a child, Lifschitz became irresistibly attracted to the piano, playing by ear and improvising with total absorption for hours on end. At age 17, his interpretation of Bach's Goldberg Variations led The New York Times to acclaim the performance as "the most powerful pianistic interpretation since Glenn Gould's." Lifschitz is also performing in the Friends of Chamber Music's 2012 Bach Festival, and will give master classes at the Conservatory.

McCoy has recorded the often surprising and abstract effects of shadows, animated by such phenomena as wind and the passage of the sun, on various surfaces from locations as varied asJapan, Italy, and Kansas City. Carl will create an accompanying soundscape performed by live musicians for a simultaneous projection of several of these videos. Carl’s piece will have an open form that will guide the performers in their interpretation and response to the visual imagery. The resulting is a sound is both controlled and improvised.

Opera
Carlisle Floyd has created a distinctively American idiom for opera, drawing on national folk and religious music traditions. His nine music theatre works combine penetrating social commentary with acute psychological insight. Floyd writes his own librettos, in which he has treated such themes as the aftermath of the Civil War, the Great Depression, and rural fundamentalism. Susannah (1955), his best-known opera, has entered the permanent repertory with countless productions in the United States and a growing number in Europe. Other operas include Of Mice and Men (1969) and The Passion of Jonathan Wade (1962, rev. 1989).

Violinist Jennifer Koh has earned a world-wide reputation for being unique in her generation for bringing her probing intellectual acuity to contemporary and traditional repertoire in equal measure, and is beloved by audiences and critics alike for her consummate musicianship and the daring passion of her performances. Koh is committed to exploring connections between the pieces she plays, searching for similarities of voice among composers, as well as within the works of a single composer. Accordingly, her programs often present rare and revealing juxtapositions, offering works by composers as divergent as Mozart and Ligeti, Schubert and Saariaho.
