IDITH MESHULAM KORMAN

“…she plays with energetic moxie and aplomb, her technique truly phenomenal yet, her subtle coloring of the introspective passages is no less awe-inspiring.”

The release has historical significance, then, but its engaging music, abundant in charm, lyricism, and melodic richness, speaks for itself. An extremely satisfying listen!
— Textura
 
The Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra and soloist Idith Meshulam Korman present these lovely works in a warm, inviting acoustic, and do so with palpable delight in the music. For both its historical significance and its pure musical quality, this release should find a welcome place in any academic collection.
— CD Hotlist
 
There is a strong sense of the style of the day, and the excellent performers here manage to transport us back to the stately halls of Imperial Vienna.
— The Absolute Sound

As an artist, I aim to convey authenticity and inclusivity in my work.

For me, part of this means presenting composers and compositions that are not regularly performed, highlighting works that I feel have been unduly underappreciated. This can include works by up-and-coming contemporary composers as well as lesser-known pieces by composers from other eras. As a student, I wrote my dissertation on the unpublished piano music of Stefan Wolpe and recorded the piano music of Nicolas Skalkottas (a pupil of Schönberg); both composers are largely unknown today. These days I study and record the piano music of Marianna Martinez (1744–1812), a woman whose notable talents and achievements have remained largely neglected by music history due to her gender (she was a student of Haydn and played four hands with Mozart). My goal is to expose audiences to her beautiful music so that her gifts can finally receive the recognition they so deserve.

I am also the founder and artistic director of Ensemble Pi, a socially active new music group that has recently celebrated its twentieth anniversary. Our group uses music and performance to open up dialogues around pressing social, political, and cultural issues.
