KEN NODA
pianist
Ken
Noda studied with renowned pianist/conductor Daniel Barenboim and made
his concert debut in London in 1979 with the maestro conducting the English
Chamber Orchestra. He has since performed as soloist with the great orchestras
of the world: the Philharmonic Orchestras of Berlin, Vienna, New York,
Israel, and Los Angeles; the Symphony Orchestras of London, Boston, Chicago,
Montreal, Toronto and San Francisco; the Cleveland Orchestra, Orchestre
de Paris, and the Philharmonia Orchestra of London - under such famed
conductors as Claudio Abbado, Daniel Barenboim, Riccardo Chailly, Rafael
Kubelik, James Levine, Zubin Mehta, Seiji Ozawa and Andre Previn.
He has also collaborated as chamber musician with James Levine (at two
pianos), Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman, Lynn Harrell, and Nigel Kennedy;
and as lieder accompanist to Kathleen Battle, Hildegard Behrens,
Maria Ewing, Aprile Millo, Kurt Moll, Jessye Norman, Dawn Upshaw, and
Deborah Voigt.
In 1991, Ken Noda retired from a full-time performing career as concert
pianist and became Musical Assistant to James Levine on the Artistic Administration
of the Metropolitan Opera. However, he continues to perform as accompanist
to today's great vocal artists. At the Met, he devotes much of his time
to the training of young singers in the Lindemann Young Artist Development
Program, many of whom he has also performed with in recital at various
venues throughout the US.
Since l999, he has been a participant at the Marlboro Music Festival and
also teaches at the Renata Scotto Opera Academy at the invitation of Miss
Scotto. He also performs chamber music and gives master classes at Juilliard,
Yale, and at the Ravinia Festival/Steans Institute.
Below, enjoy a video clip of his 1982 performance at the White House with
violinist Itzhak Perlman:
