About the event

From the earliest moments in history, music has been a direct reflection of nature and its surroundings. So much so, even our beloved composer Claude Debussy once said, “music is the expression of the movement of the waters, the play of curves described by changing breezes." With guest musicians from the esteemed CMS Lincoln Center, Kallos presents an all French program of harp chamber music. Composers Debussy, Françaix, Roussel, and Tournier take us on a scenic journey of the pastoral and naturesque settings of 20th century rural France.

ARTIST

Bridget Kibbey, harp

Called the "Yo-Yo Ma of the harp," by Vogue’s Senior Editor Corey Seymour, harpist Bridget Kibbey “… makes it seems as though he instrument had been waiting all its life to explode with the energetic figures and gorgeous colors she was getting from it [The New York Times].” With the harp as her muse, Kibbey is in demand for her virtuosic and soulful performances —excavating centuries of music as a soloist and alongside today’s top performing artists — from the French Belle Époque, to the Baroque, to Persian Modes, to Latin Jazz traditions and beyond.

Sooyun Kim, flute

Praised as “a rare virtuoso of the flute” by Libération, Sooyun Kim has established herself as one of the rare flute soloists on the classical music scene. A winner of the Georg Solti Foundation Career Grant, she has received numerous international awards and prizes including the third prize at the ARD International Flute Competition. Kim plays a rare 18-karat gold flute specially made for her by Verne Q. Powell Flutes.

Kate Arndt, violin

Violinist Kate Arndt, from Boston, Massachusetts is currently pursuing her Doctor of Musical Arts degree under Ani Kavafian. Kate holds Masters degrees from Yale in both Music and Musical Arts and completed her undergraduate studies at New England Conservatory of Music under Miriam Fried. Kate has performed as a featured soloist with several orchestras, at venues such as Boston’s Symphony Hall, Fordham University and New England Conservatory’s Jordan Hall.

Tanner Menees, viola

Born in Orange, CA in 1993, Violist Tanner Menees is forging an enviable career as a chamber musician. Menees has performed as a soloist with the Colburn Orchestra under maestro Thierry Fischer and with Symphony New Hampshire. Menees is featured in Mike Grittani’s video, Dreaming of Boccherini, shot in Guarneri Hall as part of the NEXUS Chamber Music Festival in 2019.

Christine J. Lee, cello

Praised for her inexhaustible curiosity, Christine is one of most versatile artists of her generation who performs extensively as a soloist and a chamber musician. She is the first prizewinner of the International Isang Yun Competition and a top laureate of the Queen Elisabeth Competition among her numerous competition victories.
