Elena Klionsky made her first appearance in Lincoln Center in New York as a high school student with the National Music Week orchestra conducted by Julius Grossman. Ms. Klionsky made her recital debut in New York to a sold-out audience in the Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall. She made her professional orchestral Debut performing for fifteen thousand people on the same bill as Itzhak Perlman with the Chattanooga Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Vakhtang Jordania. Her solo recitals, orchestral appearances, and TV and radio performances have taken her across the United States to Canada and Mexico, through Western Europe to Southeast Asia and to her native Russia, where she performed with leading orchestras including Moscow State Symphony, St. Petersburg Camerata, Ural Philharmonic Orchestra and Russian Federal Orchestra. Ms. Klionsky was the first foreigner ever to open the annual "Moscow Stars" Festival in the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory. Visit her at http://elenaklionsky.com/.
Photos of Ms. Klionsky are available at http://elenaklionsky.com/press.html.
Now in its tenth season, The New Juilliard Ensemble performs works from the contemporary musical literature, usually featuring music that is no more than 10 years old. A large part of the repertory has been composed for the New Juilliard Ensemble - as of last season, 44 compositions, perhaps 20% of the total programming. At the end of this season, the Ensemble will have performed fifty-five world premieres, seventy U.S. premieres, and twenty-eight New York premieres. These new pieces have come all over the world, including, Argentina, Bolivia, Israel, the Philippines, Uzbekistan, many European countries, and the United States.
