KATONAH, NEW YORK — On Friday, May 11, world-renowned lyric soprano Charlotte de Rothschild and critically acclaimed classical harpist Danielle Perrett present The Jade Mountain, a personal celebration of Caramoor’s Rosen House. Ms. de Rothschild chose music that relates to objects in the Rosen House collection. The duo has performed together internationally for nearly twenty years, often focusing on a particular theme, and has tailored this recital to reflect the Rosen House’s charm and character. This performance is inspired by the treasured jade artwork that can be found throughout the estate house.

Caramoor Classics
A series of concerts in the Rosen House Music Room that presents artists participating in Caramoor’s mentoring programs: Evnin Rising Stars, Ernst Stiefel String Quartet-in-Residence and Schwab Vocal Rising Stars. Local middle and high school students are invited to attend at no charge as a part of our Student Strings program. Caramoor Classics are appropriate for families and will often include comments from the artists about the program. (These concerts are recommended for ages 8 and above.)

About the Artists
Charlotte de Rothschild
Charlotte de Rothschild is an internationally renowned soprano who specializes in Oratorio and the Art of Song – whether this is Lieder, Chanson, Folk, Art Song or Kakyoku (Japanese classical Western-style songs). She sings in 17 languages and was hailed as a pioneer in Japan, being one of the first foreigners to have recorded a complete CD of Japanese songs (“Nihon no tabiji – A Japanese Journey”). With her wide knowledge of the song repertoire from different eras, countries and genres, Charlotte de Rothschild has created some wonderful themed programs, the best known being the “Family Connections” program which she has performed all over the world.

Charlotte’s oratorio career has been extensive: she was a soloist for the Bach Choir with Sir David Willcocks in Exeter, Wells and Truro Cathedrals, in King’s College, Cambridge and at the Royal Festival Hall. She performed in Mozart’s Requiem twice in Paris and was a soloist in Rossini’s Petite Messe Solonelle for a recording made in Japan. Charlotte also specializes in the voice and harp repertoire and has had many such recitals and tours in Germany, France, Denmark, Hong Kong, South Korea, America and Japan. Charlotte released a CD of voice and harp music recorded at Charlecote Park for the National Trust label, to coincide with the Trust’s centenary.

Danielle Perrett
Danielle Perrett is a firmly established harp soloist as well as a chamber musician. She specializes in solo and chamber music on modern as well as late eighteenth-century harps and her recordings have been highly acclaimed. Danielle’s career has seen her perform solo and chamber music in the USA, Australasia, South East Asia, India, Hong Kong, Japan, the Middle East, Africa and all over Europe.

Danielle has a great deal internationally and writes articles and reviews about harp-related and other musical topics. She composes, edits and arranges harp music in addition to researching the instrument and its repertoire from the late eighteenth to the early nineteenth centuries. An examiner for Trinity Guildhall, Danielle devised their international harp syllabi.
