Judith Lynn Stillman, internationally renowned pianist, composer, artistic director, and filmmaker, has been hailed by the press as “an artistic visionary” and as “a consummate artist," by Wynton Marsalis (with whom she recorded a Billboard Top Ten Sony album). Winner of countless awards, she has performed worldwide including at Marlboro, Tanglewood, Aspen, Voice of Music (Israel), and Ravel Academy (France), while also teaching at prestigious conservatories from Prague to Beijing. She is currently the Artist in Residence and Professor of Music at Rhode Island College. She brings to Sevenars exciting trios and duos with sought-after musicians Rachel Braude (flutist), member of the Grammy-winning Boston Modern Orchestra Project, and Charles Dimmick, violinist known for his "stellar performances” and "technical and artistic virtuosity” (Portland Press Herald). Rachel and Charles (who happen to be married and raising a budding musician) are in high demand as soloists and chamber musicians, as well as both performing with numerous orchestras, including the Portland Symphony and the Rhode Island Philharmonic where Charles is concertmaster. Together this piano-flute-violin ensemble brings a dynamic program including music of Cui, Ibert, and Beeftink, but with special emphasis on female composers including Bonis, Chaminade, Price, Bacewicz, Lili Boulanger, and Judith Lynn Stillman's own composition, "Poet As Immortal Bird" for spoken word and piano - don't miss them!
