Biography
Prolific conductor and composer José Serebrier has achieved international acclaim as a composer and conductor with a vast number of appearances in concert and on recordings. He won attention as a young man when he received a US State Department Fellowship to move from his home in Uruguay to study in America. He studied with Bohuslav Martinu, Vittorio Giannini and Aaron Copland and won awards for his compositions. Endowments and commissions followed and after a stint as apprentice conductor with the Minnesota Orchestra, at 22 he was named by Leopold Stokowski as associate conductor of the American Symphony Orchestra in New York.
Stokowski had conducted Serebrier's 'Elegy for Strings' at Carnegie Hall in 1962 and he opened the American Symphony's 1963 concert with his 'Poema Elegiaco'. Recordings of his works followed and from 1968-70 during which time he was composer in residence at the Cleveland Orchestra. He wrote concerto 'Nueve' for double bassist Gary Karr, and in 1995 his 'Violin Concerto Winter' debuted at the Lincoln Center in New York.
As conductor, he has toured the world with the Russian National Orchestra, Juilliard Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony, Philharmonia Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Scottish Chamber Orchestra, Toulouse Chamber Orchestra, and the National Youth Orchestra of Spain amongst others. Winner of numerous awards, his most recent recordings include symphonies and concertos by Russian composer Alexander Glazunov with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and the Russian National Orchestra, slavonic dances by Czech composer Antonin Dvorák with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and ballet music by Italy's Giuseppe Verdi.
