Grammy-nominated composer Jonathan Leshnoff is renowned for his music's striking harmonies, structural complexity, and powerful themes. Ranked among the most performed living composers by American orchestras in recent seasons, the Baltimore-based composer's works have been performed by more than 75 orchestras worldwide in hundreds of orchestral concerts. He has received recent commissions from Carnegie Hall, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and the symphony orchestras of Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas, Kansas City, Nashville, and Pittsburgh and his works have been premiered by classical music's most celebrated artists, including Gil Shaham, Johannes Moser, Manuel Barrueco and Joyce Yang. Leshnoff is a Professor of Music at Towson University.
One of the most unique and sought-after chamber ensembles on the concert stage today, the Carpe Diem String Quartet is a boundary-breaking ensemble that has earned widespread critical acclaim. Carpe Diem defies easy classification with programming that includes classical, Gypsy, tango, folk, pop, rock and jazz-inspired music. The quartet appears on concert series at traditional venues, including Carnegie Hall, Jordan Hall, National Gallery of Art, Chautauqua Institute, Asolo Theater, Accademia Chigiana and Suntory Hall, as well as unconventional ones, including Poisson Rouge, Bach Dancing and Dynamite Society, Half-Moon Bay, The Redlands Bowl and The Mug & Brush. Carpe Diem has been awarded six transformative grants from the PNC Foundation for their community outreach quartets of Sergei Taneyev (Naxos) as well as the complete string quartets of Jonathan Leshnoff. They have also released two CDs with singer-guitarist Willy Porter, Anansi and the Sky God with saxophonist John Gunther, the complete string quartets of Richard Jordan Smoot, Quintets Nos.1 and 2 for Mandolin and String Quartet by Jeff Midkiff and Bruce Wolosoff's Songs without Words. Carpe Diem's CD Montana, featuring music by composer and quartet member Korine Fujiwara, received widespread acclaim. The quartet seeks out, and is sought after by, artists from many different genres for collaboration, including bandoneón player Raul Juarena, klezmer clarinetist David Krakauer, cellist Yo-Yo Ma, banjo virtuoso Jayme Stone, Celtic flautist Shannon Heaton, mandolinist Jeff Midkiff, Dixieland trumpeter Tom Battenberg, classical guitarist Nicolo Spera, Chinese pipa player Yihan Chen, Jazz Quartet the Whirly Birds, and a world master of the Persian santoor, Dariush Saghafi. Carpe Diem is dedicated to community engagement, and also to pushing the limits of the classical string quartet to change the concert experience of chamber music. Using innovative programming, thematic concerts, popular music, video-enhanced visual presentation and engagement with the audience from the stage, Carpe Diem is helping to bring new audiences to the concert hall.
