Biography: JEANNE STARK was born in Belgium and graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels with the highest marks of the previous 20 years and received the conservatory’s most coveted award: The Prix de Virtuosite avec Grande Distinction. Born in Belgium, Ms. Stark won the Laure Van Cutsem Prize, appeared as soloist with her country’s national orchestra and was selected to represent Belgium at an international festival of modern music in Bayreuth. An International Queen Elisabeth scholarship brought Ms. Stark to the United States for advanced study with Mieczyslaw Horszowski and Edwine Behre.
Following a highly acclaimed debut in New York’s Carnegie Recital Hall, Ms. Stark has delighted audiences in France, Canada, Mexico, Belgium and the United States. She has given recitals and appeared with the Belgian National Orchestra, under the direction of Leon Jongen and Edouard Van Remoorteel; the National Radio Orchestra of Belgium, conducted by Rene Defossez; the New Haven Symphony; the Boston Civic Orchestra; in Virginia; in New York’s Town Hall and on WNYC in New York. She has also performed extensively with the Berkeley Symphony Orchestra, including a performance of Messiaen’s Turangalila with Kent Nagano conducting. For several years, Ms. Stark served as both teacher and performer in the festivals at Montauroux in Southern France and was a member of the Adamant Summer Piano School in Vermont. Ms Stark has served at Bryn Mawr College as guest lecturer on the works of Olivier Messiaen and was Assistant Music Director for Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro at Bryn Mawr.
With Today’s Artists Concerts’ Distinguished Artists Series in San Francisco, she has performed Mozart’s Concerto No. 23, K. 488 under the baton of Kermit Moore, and Franz Liszt’s Piano Concerto No. 1 under the baton of Urs Schneider, both with the Berkeley Symphony Orchestra and several solo recitals. In 1985, she performed a solo recital program at Carnegie Recital Hall and gave recitals at Alice Tully hall in 1988 and 1992, both also under the auspices of Today’s Artists Concerts. In 1996, she performed Bach’s Goldberg Variations at Alice Tully Hall, under the auspices of Four Seasons Concerts and in 2001, she was presented in her Carnegie Hall debut recital under the same presenter.
For many years, Ms. Stark has been Artist-in-Residence at Four Seasons Concerts’ Yachats Music Festival in Yachats, Oregon. She performs regularly with Four Seasons Arts in their Distinguished Artists Series in the San Francisco Bay Area.
In 2002, 2004 and 2005, Ms. Stark performed in Turkey. For several years, she performed recitals in cities and towns throughout the United States under the auspices of the Adams Foundation Piano Recital Series, an organization dedicated to restoring the piano recital in communities throughout the United States.
Ms. Stark can be heard on Arch Records’ label in Debussy’s Preludes, Books 1 and II. Also available are her CD recordings of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, of Debussy Preludes, Book I and Debussy Preludes, Book II. Her most recent CD is a live recording of her 2008 recital at the Herbst Theater in San Francisco, featuring works by Schubert, Debussy, Beethoven and Chopin.
Jeanne Stark is regarded with the highest esteem for her superb musicianship and deeply spiritual interpretations of classical music’s most challenging repertoire for the piano. Her artistry has earned her the praise of some of the great musical masters of our time, including composers Darius Milhaud, Oliver Messiaen and Lou Harrison.

While the material has been restored using the greatest care and state-of-the-art techniques, certain visual artefacts and distortions remain in some instances due to the age of the film. Despite this, it remains of exceptional musical interest and historic value and is released here for the first time on DVD.
A great admirer of Schumann's Second Symphony, Charles Munch programmed the work in four different Boston Symphony Orchestra seasons, taking it on tour on each occasion. He never recorded the symphony with the BSO nor with any other orchestra, which makes this exciting DVD a new addition to his discography.
The ICA Classics Legacy series represents an historic account of performances by some of the world's greatest artists. This DVD features some of the earliest televised concerts with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and their Music Director, Charles Munch.
