PROGRAM NOTES:
Along with award winning pianist Brendan White, Stefanie Fife is pleased to perform a recital of her original works for cello and piano.
The first piece, in three movements entitled "What The Moon Seas," was inspired by the ocean and its tides, as imagined in an ancient time. It depicts the water rushing towards the sand, only to retreat, then return again; each wave unique and relentless, while creatures of the pre Jurassic Era begin their first explorations of land. The second movement evokes images of rain, both gentle and severe while the third movement is an ode to the majestic thunderheads that form on the horizon then cede to the blue of the sky. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
The second half of the concert is lighter in mood, and features movements from her work for cello and jazz trio. The instrumentation is reduced to feature a cello and piano duo. &nbsp;
Stefanie Fife, born and raised in the San Fernando Valley, began her musical studies on cello at the age of nine.
As a freelance musician in Los Angeles, she has performed with numerous local orchestras, played Broadway shows at the Ahmanson Theatre, and has played with various artists on the Tonight Show, and award shows such as the Grammy's and People's Choice. The main focus of her career has been in the recording industry where she has performed on hundreds of movies, television shows and records. These credits include "Up," "Ratatouille," "Star Wars: Rouge One" as well as several Spiderman and Mission Impossible movies. She has also recorded for icons such as Elton John, Faith Hill and Stevie Wonder. &nbsp;
ARTIST BIOS: Most recently her cello solos can be heard on "Night Agent" "The Dragon Prince" and an episode of "Star Trek: Picard."
Stefanie has always enjoyed composing and arranging, and has written and produced several CDs including a solo cello album, two award winning children's CDs and a string quartet Christmas CD which features a fun twist on mashing up classic carols with famous classical works. She in currently working on a piece for cello and jazz trio. &nbsp;
As well as music, Stefanie enjoys photography in her spare time.
She has a Bachelor and Master of Music degree from Cal State University, Northridge in cello performance where she studied with Peter Rejto.
Brendan White is a Grammy-award-winning artist whose performances feature a wide range of classical and contemporary piano repertoire. Brendan is based in the L.A. area, where he collaborates with orchestras, chamber ensembles, and solo artists. He is a featured musician on Danaë Vlasse's Grammy Award-winning album, 'Mythologies'. Brendan performs solo recitals celebrating new composers and historically overlooked masterpieces. His collaborations include performances with with the Eastman School's Musica Nova, Vicente Chamber Orchestra, Global Harmony Symphony, Jackson Symphony, Symphony of the Verdugos, and more. &nbsp;As one of Piano Sphere's Emerging Artists, he has worked with notable composers and conductors including Thomas Adès, Alma Deutscher, Alan Pierson, Donald Crockett, and Steven Stucky.
A Tennessee native, Brendan studied at the Eastman School of Music and University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music. In addition to his performance career, Brendan is passionate about music education and teaches students of all ages. He is an original member of the annual Sunset Chamberfest in Los Angeles, which features the work of young composers in Southern California.
