About the artist
Flutist Isabel Lepanto Gleicher has been called “excellent” (The New York Times), and John Zorn writes that “Isabel’s display of virtuosity...and stunning musicality inspired me”. Isabel is a member of the International Contemporary Ensemble (ICE), new music sinfonietta Ensemble Echappe, Song Sessions Collective, woodwind quintet SoundMind, hip-hop band ShoutHouse, and the Annapolis Chamber Music Festival. She also performs with ensembles such as wild Up, Talea and Argento New Music Project. Isabel has been featured in a solo recital on Miller Theatre’s Pop Up series. She has also collaborated with So Percussion on a performance of Lou Harrison’s Flute Concerto at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC and with the Aizuri Quartet on a portrait recording of music by composer Ilari Kaila. She has premiered works by Missy Mazzoli, Beat Furrer, Anna Thorvaldsdottir and John Zorn, among others. In 2015 Isabel won first prize at the Myrna Brown Young Artist Competition.
Isabel was a Teaching Artist with the Bridge Arts Ensemble, and held a one year position of Teaching Artist Apprentice with New York Philharmonic education. She has also collaborated with many composition departments, performing young student composers’ pieces from the Third Street Music School Settlement, Face the Music, Luna Composition Lab, the Music Advancement Program at the Juilliard School and the Very Young Composers program at the New York Philharmonic. Isabel, alongside her colleagues in ICE, is guest faculty at the Walden School Music Camp.
Isabel holds an MM in Contemporary Performance from the Manhattan School of Music, an MM from the Yale School of Music, and a BM from SUNY Purchase Conservatory of Music. Her primary teachers have included Tara Helen O’Connor, Ransom Wilson, and Tanya Dusevic Witek.
About the series
Recital Stream is a new platform for audiences and performers of classical music in response to the Coronavirus crisis.
We are all adjusting to a life lived further apart from one another. But staying at home needn't mean missing out on the thrill of witnessing great music, performed live. Indeed, as we navigate these treacherous and uncertain waters, it is our belief that we need great art more than ever.
Our outstanding featured artists will be presenting informal performances live from their living rooms to yours.
Artists across the world have been severely affected by the current crisis, as engagements evaporate and incomes are decimated for months. We recognise that particularly in these challenging times, not everyone will be able to spare the price of a concert ticket. That's why these livestreamed concerts are free for everyone to enjoy. For those with the means who would like to support our artists, however, there will be the opportunity to donate to them directly.
