What we also have to find is justice.                                ~Rigoberta Menchu Paul Freeman Thursday, 08 March 2007 Maestro Paul Freeman begins his 20th season as Music Director of the Chicago Sinfonietta, a post he has held since his founding of the orchestra in 1987. Born in Richmond, Virginia, Maestro Freeman has established himself as one of America's leading conductors. In 1996, he was appointed music director and chief conductor of the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in Prague, a position he holds simultaneously with his Chicago Sinfonietta post. From 1979 to 1989, he served as music director of the Victoria Symphony in Canada, principal guest conductor of the Helsinki Philharmonic in Finland, associate conductor of the Dallas and Detroit Symphony Orchestras, and music director of the Opera Theatre of Rochester, New York. A recipient of the Mahler Award for the European Union of Arts, Freeman is in constant demand as a guest conductor, having led more than 100 orchestras in over 30 countries. As one of America's most successful recording conductors, he has approximately 200 releases to his credit. His nine-LP series tracing the history of Black symphonic composers from 1750 to the present garnered a great deal of attention on the Columbia label in the mid-1970s. In collaboration with pianist Derek Han, he has recorded all the piano concertos of Mozart (nine CDs with the London Philharmonic), Haydn (two CDs with the English Chamber Orchestra) and Beethoven (three CDs with the Berlin Symphony). Freeman has been involved in more than a dozen televised orchestra productions in North American and Europe. He has been nominated for two Emmy Awards and has received rave reviews for his recordings. The December 2000 issue of Fanfare magazine proclaimed Maestro Freeman "one of the finest conductors which our nation has produced." Dr. Freeman received his Ph.D. from Eastman School of Music and studied on a US Fulbright Grant in Berlin. He has garnered a number of awards, including the top prize in the Mitropoulos International Conducting Competition and honorary doctorate degrees from Dominican and Loyola Universities. In 2005, Maestro Freeman was designated a HistoryMaker, having been nominated by the DuSable Museum of African American History, for his outstanding contributions to African American life, history, and culture. Maestro Freeman's talent was summarized in the following quotation from Robert Marsh, longtime music critic for the Chicago Sun-Times: "Freeman conducts performances which are remarkable for their beauty and communicative force. He brings the sound of the Chicago Sinfonietta to the heights of angels."   Provided by Chicago Sinfonietta   < Prev   Next > [ Back ]       © 2012 myrtlehart.org Joomla! is Free Software released under the GNU/GPL License.
