About

Active as a solo artist, collaborator, and chamber musician, Ari Livne has performed extensively throughout the United States at such venues as Benaroya Hall, the Kennedy Center, and Merkin Hall. His diverse set of interests and skills has allowed him to become equally comfortable as a solo performer, opera coach, and lecturer. He has worked as repetiteur for Don Giovanni and Butterfly with New York’s Heartbeat Opera, and has presented lecture-recitals on topics ranging from psychoanalysis, literature, and philosophy. Ari Livne received his Bachelor of Arts from Yale University in 2012 and his Master of Music Degree at The Juilliard School in 2014. He is currently working towards a doctorate at the CUNY Graduate Center, where he is the recipient of a Graduate Center Fellowship.

Music

Much of my repertoire comes from the standard classical and virtuoso canon: Bach, Scarlatti, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Scriabin, and Debussy. I love mixing standard repertoire with newer, less familiar works, some by established composers of the 20th century that moved away from tonality, such as Schoenberg, Bartok, Messiaen, Ligeti, and Barber, and others by 20th and 21st century composers who fuse classical composition with more popular genres, such as Nikolai Kapustin, Margaret Bonds, Ryan Francis, and Peteris Vasks.
