Electric Earth Concerts presents Emely Phelps, pianist and Jazimina MacNeil, mezzo-soprano
Please join the EEC community for a special holiday kick-off concert on Sunday, December 2, 2018 at 3pm at Reynolds Hall in Peterborough, NH.
Electric Earth Concerts is delighted to announce its annual Gala fundraising afternoon, celebrating the end of our 7th season and looking ahead to season 8! Emely Phelps, pianist, will play an hour-long recital curated for our EEC audience, with a special performance by mezzo-soprano Jazimina MacNeil. Holiday snacks and our yearly Prosecco toast will follow.
Emely Phelps has been praised by the Boston Globe for her "fleet, energetic and bright-toned playing." She has appeared in recital at the Mansion at Strathmore Hall, Meredith College, and Glen Eyrie, and has made concerto appearances with the National Symphony Orchestra and the Washington Metropolitan Philharmonic. Emely studied with Marjorie Lee and Carole Kriewaldt before receiving her Bachelor of Music and Master of Music degrees as a student of Julian Martin at the Juilliard School. While at Juilliard, she was awarded the John Erskine Prize for scholastic and artistic achievement. She most recently studied with Vivian Hornik Weilerstein at New England Conservatory, receiving a Graduate Diploma in 2013. She has previously attended Kneisel Hall, the International Holland Music Sessions, Four Seasons Winter Workshop, Banff Chamber Music Residency, and Banff Piano Master Class. She was previously on the piano faculty of The Geneva Conservatory of Music in Manhattan and currently maintains a private studio in Boston.
Hailed as "clearly a singer to watch" by the New York Times and "fulminant" by the Berliner Morgenpost, Jazimina MacNeil's recent and upcoming performances include Mahler's Second Symphony at Carnegie Hall with the New York Youth Symphony, the roles of Anna in Kurt Weill's The Seven Deadly Sins at the Tanglewood Music Festival, Subdominant in Steven Stucky's new opera The Classical Style with the Aspen Music Festival, Kate in Britten's Owen Wingrave, Rinaldo in Handel's Rinaldo, Siebel in Faust, Carolina in Hans Werner Henze's Elegy for Young Lovers, Idamente in Idomeneo, and Carmen in Peter Brook's adaptation of Le Tragedie de Carmen with the Curtis Opera Theater.
