Patrons must sit in their assigned seat.\n\n\n\nFace Coverings\nFace coverings that cover the nose and mouth are strongly encouraged\, but not required\, while inside the performance hall. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nThe 1841 Bösendorfer grand piano\nThe 1841 Bösendorfer grand piano represents the piano builder’s craft in the era when Chopin\, Mendelssohn\, Schumann\, and Liszt were at the height of their powers. Restored by Edward Swenson of Trumansburg\, New York\, it is an early example of the work of the Viennese builder Ignaz Bösendorfer (1794-1859)\, whose firm\, founded in 1828\, still makes some of the world’s finest pianos. An expanded and strengthened descendent of the Classical-era fortepianos played by Mozart and Haydn\, it is similar to the pianos Beethoven knew during his later years. It has a range of six and a half octaves with 81 keys of ivory and ebony\, leather-covered hammers attached directly to the keys\, parallel stringing throughout the scale\, and pedals for lifting the dampers and shifting the keyboard (una corda). The case\, veneered in ash\, supports the tension of the strings without the assistance of an iron plate. The sound delivers clarity\, variety of color\, and the sweetness of tone for which Bösendorfer was particularly esteemed. \nAndrew Willis\, fortepiano\nPianist Andrew Willis explores the historical development of keyboard instruments and their performance practice\, maintaining a commitment to the study\, performance\, and teaching of the widest possible range of repertoire. Keenly interested in the history of the piano\, he contributes frequently to conferences\, festivals\, and concert series.

As Covington Distinguished Professor of Music in the UNC Greensboro School of Music\, Willis teaches performance on instruments ranging from harpsichord to modern piano.

For the Albany\, Bridge\, Claves\, Centaur\, and CRI labels he has recorded solo and ensemble music of three centuries on pianos linked historically to the chosen repertoire. Willis received the DMA in Historical Performance from Cornell University\, where he studied fortepiano with\nMalcolm Bilson\, the MM in Accompanying and Chamber Music from Temple University under George Sementovsky and Lambert Orkis\, and the BM in Piano from The Curtis Institute of Music\, where his mentor was Mieczyslaw Horszowski. \nRobert Bracey\, tenor\nRobert Bracey has performed throughout the United States and made appearances in Canada\, Russia\, Europe\, India\, and Japan.

He performs in venues such as Glinka Hall in St. Petersburg\, Trinity Wall St.\, Freiburg’s Ensemblehaus\, and Weill Recital Hall. Together with pianist and duo partner Mimi Solomon\, Nicholas created the project “Unraveling Beethoven\,” a cycle of all ten violin sonatas combined with response works from composers Tonia Ko\, Jesse Jones\, Robert Honstein\, D.K.

Patrons must sit in their assigned seat.\n\n\n\nFace Coverings\nFace coverings that cover the nose and mouth are strongly encouraged\, but not required\, while inside the performance hall. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nFlutist and pedagogue\, Erika Boysen\, is a leading innovator within interdisciplinary performance. Particularly known for her uniquely evocative collaborations including movement\, singing and acting\, Boysen uses these forms of creative expression both in performance and as a method for teaching artistic concepts. For her demonstrative expertise and virtuosic performance\, she has been invited to Asia\, Australia\, Central America\, Europe\, and to over a dozen US states to perform in recitals\, teach master classes\, and lead creative workshops. \nActive on all fronts\, recent highlights include: solo and chamber performances in Shanghai\, China\, guest artist appearances at the Flutes by the Sea Workshop in California\, and Anatomy of Sound Workshop in Michigan. Additionally\, Boysen recently released the video mobile app\, Moving Sound\, that features newly commissioned solo works for the singing\, speaking\, moving flutist by composers: David Biedenbender\, Mark Engebretson\, and Jane Rigler. The app\, available for download on apple and android devices\, includes a moving score\, interviews with composers and behind-the-scenes footage from the recording process. \nWhenever possible\, Dr. Boysen believes in combining the power of music\, movement\, and theater to create. To this end\, she has performed theatrically inclined work by composer Kate Soper\, fully choreographed interpretations of existing work from composers such as Toru Takemitsu\, and entirely new works from composers such as Jane Rigler. In combination with performances in multiple years of the National Flute Association Convention\, these highlights have earned Boysen international recognition\, including features on The Flute View and Flute Talk and requests to conduct workshops and masterclasses in universities and festivals across the world. \nAs a “seated” performer\, Erika also takes the stage frequently as a chamber musician. Though she regularly performs in a number of chamber ensembles\, most decorated has been her role in the Four Corners Ensemble (4CE)\, a sextet of flute\, clarinet\, violin\, viola\, cello and piano dedicated to international collaboration. Recent 4CE performances have included recitals in Carnegie Hall\, Shanghai Conservatory\, Qingdao University of Science and Technology\, and at the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland\, where Boysen premiered flute concerto The Dryad by composer Shuying Li. Other previous and forthcoming performances with chamber groups include the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble\, Eighth Blackbird\, Seen/Heard Trio\, and COLLAPSS. \nIn addition to her primary position as Assistant Professor of Flute at UNCG\, Boysen has had other faculty positions of note. She served on the faculty of Interlochen’s Arts Camp and Arts Academy as well as the Atlantic Music Festival in Maine. \nA native of Iowa\, Erika Boysen is based in Greensboro\, North Carolina. She received her Doctorate of Musical Arts from the University of Michigan\, where her dissertation recitals featured collaborations with spoken word\, dance\, and visual art. Further education comes from the New England Conservatory and University of North Carolina School of the Arts. She is grateful to her former teachers\, who include Amy Porter\, Paula Robison\, Dr. Tadeu Coelho\, Dr. Kimberly Helton\, and Mark Sparks.
