Info zu Tapeo

"A technically perfect duo with a personal style." (Classica) Spanish music is the focus of Tapeo, a new recording by cellist Cameron Crozman and pianist Philip Chiu. Works by Gaspar Cassadó, Manuel de Falla, Joaquin Turina are performed on “El Tiburon," a circa 1769 Spanish cello attributed to Joannes Guillami, and generously loaned by the Instrument Bank of the Canada Council for the Arts. “I fell in love with Spain the moment I first stepped into a tapas bar in the middle of Barcelona," says Crozman. “Each of the short pieces on this album was chosen for its own unique flavor and will give you a musical taste of Spain's incredibly diverse and rich culture. And just as Spanish food would be unthinkable without the tomatoes and potatoes of the New World, so too it felt like an album of Spanish music would be incomplete without a couple gems from Hispanic America".

Cameron Crozman
Described as a “mature artist with a profound musical imagination,” (Toronto Concert Reviews), Cameron Crozman is being hailed as one of Canada’s leading young cellists. Maintaining an active performance schedule in North America and Europe, engagements have taken Cameron to such prestigious venues as the Shanghai Oriental Arts Center, Berliner Philharmonie, Paris Philharmonie, Philadelphia’s Mann Centre, Montreal’s Maison Symphonique, and Canada’s National Arts Centre. He has performed concerti with the Quebec Symphony Orchestra, Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony, Hamilton Philharmonic, Orchestre des Lauréats du Conservatoire, and Orchestra London under the direction of conductors such as David Rieland, Edwin Outwater, and Fabien Gabel. In 2012, he toured Canada and the United States playing Dvorak Cello Concerto with the National Youth Orchestra of Canada under the direction of Alain Trudel. Current season highlights include performances with I Musici de Montréal, London Sinfonia, and Orchestre du Conservatoire de Paris and Bruno Mantovani.

An avid chamber musician, Cameron is frequently invited to perform with world leading artists and ensembles. He has already performed with the likes of James Ehnes, André Laplante, Huw Watkins, Martin Beaver, Gérard Caussé, James Campbell, and members of the Ébène, New Zealand, and Penderecki String Quartets. He regularly appears at festivals in Canada and Europe including the Ottawa Chamberfest, Toronto Summer Music Festival, Montreal Chamber Music Festival, Helsinki Musica Nova, Beauvais Cello Festival and Birmingham Frontiers Festival. Festival appearances this year include ScotiaFest, Seattle Chamber Music Festival, and Musique et Vin festival at Clos Vougeot in Burgundy. His performances have been broadcast on CBC, Radio France, Radio Classique, and Medici.tv. He will release his debut CD on the ATMA Classique label this January 2019.

Mr. Crozman was one of 6 cellists from around the world chosen to take part in the Gautier Capuçon’s 2016-17 Classe d’Excellence at the Louis Vuitton Foundation. He received his 2e Cycle Supérieur Conférant le Grade de Master (Master’s level) in cello with highest honours from the Conservatoire de Paris in the class of Michel Strauss and Guillaume Paoletti. Cameron also concurrently complete his master’s level in Chamber music in the class of Claire Désert and Ami Flammer. He holds an Artist Diploma in contemporary repertoire and creation. He has played in masterclass for world-leading cellists, including Janos Starker, Anner Bylsma, Lawrence Lesser, Tsuyoshi Tsutsumi, Gary Hoffman, Richard Aaron, and Colin Carr.

Cameron has been selected to participate in various international competitions, and is 2nd prize laureate of both the OSM Standard Life and the Eckhardt-Gramatté Competitions. He was the youngest recipient of the Canada Council Michael Measure's Prize and was one of only 12 cellists chosen to compete at Kronberg Academy's 2014 Grand Prix Emanuel Feuermann.

Deeply committed to innovation in contemporary music, Mr. Crozman has collaborated with composers Kaija Saariaho and Peteris Vasks, and premiered new works by Daniel Alvarado (with the Orchestre des Lauréats du Conservatoire and David Rieland), Frédéric Lebel (at the Institute for Research and Coordination in Acoustics/Music), and Kelly-Marie Murphy (solo cello). He has worked with a number of contemporary music ensembles and institutions including the Ensemble Intercontemporain, the IRCAM, and the Ensemble Court-Circuit. Cameron is particularly engaged in sharing Canadian music with the world, and has given the European premieres of a number of Canadian works.

Cameron is extremely grateful for the support of the Canada Council for the Arts and Sylva Gelber Foundation in his projects.
