Identified by Vienna’s Die Zeitung
as a “superior talent”, and praised by the Cincinnati Enquirer
as “an outstanding musician, a thorough delight, an adventure, a
discovery” Marylene Dosse is an artist of international stature.
Dosse has
performed extensively in France, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy,
England, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Greece, Luxembourg, Africa,
Mexico, South America, and in most cities in the United States. After
a series of recitals at Lincoln Center, Raymond Ericson of the New
York Times said, “she plays with ease, showing marked concern
for color, and rhythmic and melodic finesse.” She has made numerous
live television appearances in Europe and in the United States.
In 1997 she
presented a series of concerts and master-classes in Japan. The
following year, as a member of the Castalia Trio, Dosse toured China
for three weeks, giving concerts that were televised via satellite
throughout the nation. Most recently Dosse, with violinist Marianne
Behrendt, gave the complete cycle of Beethoven sonatas for violin and
piano in Buenos Aires, and again in Paris in 2002.
Dosse has
released over twenty records on the Vox label, performances which
have been broadcast over major radio stations worldwide. Included are
recordings of the complete piano works of Saint-Saëns and
Granados. The latter was chosen as best recording by High Fidelity
Magazine. Her discography also includes rarely heard concertos by
Massenet, Saint-Saëns, Gounod, Lalo, Pierne, Mendelssohn, and
F.X. Mozart, as well as many solo works of the French repertoire from
Chabrier to Poulenc.
After winning
first prizes in the Paris Conservatory and two international
competitions in Salzburg and Naples she studied in Vienna with Paul
Badura-Skoda and Alfred Brendel. Marylenne Dosse has been a guest
faculty member of Indiana University-Bloomington and artist in
residence at the University of Wisconsin. She is presently
Distinguished Professor of Music at the Pennsylvania State
University, and is a member of the resident Castalia Trio.
