Marylène Dosse, piano
Identified by Vienna''s Die Zeitung as a "superior talent" and praised by the Cincinnati Enquirer as "an outstanding musician, a thorough delight, an adventure, a discovery," Marylène Dosse is an artist of international stature.
Dosse has performed extensively in France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy, the Czech Republic, England, Switzerland, Greece, Luxembourg, Mexico, South America, North Africa, and in most major cities in the United States. After a series of recitals in Lincoln Center, Raymond Ericson of The New York Times said, "She plays with ease, showing marked concern for color, and rhythmic and melodic finesse." She has made numerous live television appearances in Europe and the United States. In 1997 Dosse toured Japan for a series of recitals, lectures, master classes and private coachings. The following year, along with the Castalia Trio, she went to China (Beijing, Jinan, Nanjing, and Shanghai) where she performed trio concerts and performances of Beethoven''s Triple Concerto.
In April and August 2000 Dosse played the complete cycle of Beethoven''s piano and violin sonatas in Buenos Aires with violinist Marianne Behrendt. Together they will present the cycle in Paris Salle Gaveau in January 2002.
Dosse has released over twenty recordings on the Vox and Pantheon labels, performances which have been broadcast over major radio stations worldwide. Included are recordings of the complete piano works of Saint-Saëns and Granados. The latter was chosen as best recording by High Fidelity Magazine. Her discography also includes rarely heard concertos by Massenet, Saint-Saëns, Debussy, Gounod, Lalo, Pierné, Mendelssohn, and F.X. Mozart, as well as many solo works of the French repertoire from Chabrier to Poulenc. A new recording of Dello Joio''s two piano and four hand works with Debra Torok is scheduled for release at the end of this year by Albany Record.
After winning first prizes in the Paris Conservatory and two international prizes in Salzburg and Naples, she studied in Vienna with Paul Badura-Skoda and Alfred Brendel. Marylène Dosse has been a guest faculty member of Indiana University-Bloomington and artist-in-residence at the University of Wisconsin. She is currently Professor of Music at The Pennsylvania State University where in 1991 she was elected a Fellow of the Institute for the Arts and Humanistic Studies and the only woman in this very select group. Dosse was the winner of the 1999 Faculty Scholar Medal for Outstanding Achievement in the Arts and Humanities. Marylène Dosse is part of the Penn State resident Castalia Trio.
