She's got the fingers and the personality - and, at least here, the haut-est couture." – Scott Cantrell, Dallas Morning News At the age of twenty-three, Yeol Eum Son's highly versatile and accomplished performances earned her a silver medal at the Thirteenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. Already considered among the most important artists of her generation in South Korea, she has performed there with almost every notable orchestra, and has been a featured soloist with the New York Philharmonic on several occasions, most recently as part of the orchestra's historic visit to Seoul. Read full bio. The September 30th program will feature the following pieces: - J. S. Bach, Partita No.6 in E minor BWV 830 (20') - Barber, Sonata for Piano, Op. 26 (20') - Debussy, Preludes Book I No.3-8 (20') - Chopin, Waltz No.9 in A-flat major, Op.69 No.1 Waltz No.11 in G-flat major, Op.70 No.1 Waltz No.5 in A-flat major, Op.42 - Scriabin, Etudes, Op.8, Nos.10, 11, 12 (9') KATE WEARE COMPANY Wednesday, October 7. 7:30pm Main Theatre $26- $10 "…(her) dances are so smart and so well executed and full of stimulating invitations for thought…” John Rockwell,The New York Times Weare, one of New York’s most creative young choreographers will launch the Keene State College Redfern Arts Center’s dance season on Wednesday, October 7 at 7:30 p.m. Kate Weare Company will bring two of their latest works to the Redfern- Lean-To, which premiered at the Bates Dance Festival this summer, and Bridge of Sighs, which was co-commissioned by Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival and premiered at the Pillow in summer 2008. In Lean-To Kurt Perschke’s 20-foot-tall arcing set hovers over the dancers and is actively transformed by Brian Jones’s lighting from menace to shelter. The collaborative elements of Lean-To layer upon each other to accumulate meaning, ultimately offering a dynamic and sensitive look at issues of inter-dependence and integration. The title of Bridge of Sighs refers to the bridge of the same name in Venice, Italy, a world-famous symbol of romantic love. However, centuries ago the view from the Bridge of Sighs was the last one convicts saw before being locked up in the Doge’s prisons. This quartet for two women and two men looks at the instincts – both reckless and wise – that drive us toward love. Debora Jowitt of The Village Voice wrote, "Note to self: Try not to miss any performances by Kate Weare Company. While joining the fervent applause for the premiere of Bridge of Sighs at Jacob’s Pillow, I’m thinking: ‘This is what I’ve been craving.’" Weare, originally from California, has since presented work in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, London, Belgrade, and Vienna. Since moving to New York in 2000, she has twice been commissioned by Dance Theater Workshop and presented work at Joyce Soho, Danspace at St. Mark’s Church, The Kitchen, DancemOpolitan at Joe’s Pub, The 92nd St. Y, The Puffin Room, and New York University’s Frederick Loewe Theater. She recently was described by The New York Times as, "defining the next generation of dance makers."
