Out-of-the-box management, PR, and project planning for visionary artists and institutions
According to the Denver Post, “There are outdoor concerts and then there are concerts in the outdoors. The Moab Music Festival is an event that has perfectly combined music with the surrounding landscape and invites guests to come along for one-of-a-kind performances.”
“Piccinini’s flute playing combines an intensely communicative performance with a powerfully magnetic stage presence, and a global perspective that informs her work.”says MiamiArtZine in advance of her gala opening concert of the MPIMC 2019 session.
“On Saturday, November 3rd, 2018, we were treated to a truly spiritual and breathtaking performance by Music from Copland House,” raves Jordi Faxon of Peninsula Reviews. “The performers received a well-deserved standing ovation, and audience members were left with a thoroughly refreshed soul and reawakened spirit. This concert was nothing if not unforgettable, and has truly left me with a reinvigorated passion for music itself.”
Marina Piccinini performed and recorded Kernis’s new flute concerto with Leonard Slatkin and the Peabody Orchestra. The Baltimore Sun said “In addition to the brilliant, prismatic writing for the flute, Kernis provides a multilayered orchestral fabric that includes, to delectable effect, a mandolin. Piccinini, who performed the concerto’s premiere last year with Slatkin and the Detroit Symphony, met the work’s thorny technical demands on this occasion with her usual aplomb.”
PBS NewsHour commented “the walls of stone serve as one of the most breathtaking amphitheaters in the world,” about some of the Moab Music Festival’s “venues.”
The Saint Louis Symphony performed Kernis’s musica celestis, which KDHX radio called “a work of transcendent beauty,” saying “The title translates as “heavenly music” and to my ears it fully lives up to that title, building from a quiet opening to an ecstatic peak before fading out in the highest reaches of the strings, as though ascending to heaven.”
