Corigliano

Career highlights include the company’s first Wagner “Ring” cycle; 2015’s “Figaro Trilogy” featuring John Corigliano’s “The Ghosts of Versailles,” Rossini’s “The Barber of Seville” and Mozart’s “The Marriage of Figaro”; and conducting a performance of “The Anonymous Lover” by Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, a prominent Black composer in 18th century France.

They later collaborated on “The Red Violin,” with Gelb suggesting the composer John Corigliano to write a time- and world-traveling soundtrack to be performed by the violinist Joshua Bell.

He was nominated twice for a Grammy — for recordings of the Aaron Copland Concerto for Clarinet, Strings, Harp and Piano, with Leonard Bernstein conducting, and of John Corigliano’s Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra, with Zubin Mehta conducting.

The VAN story also included accounts of other abuses at the school, including claims from a student alleging uninvited advances by Pulitzer- and Grammy-winning composer and Juilliard professor Christopher Rouse, who died in 2019, as well as allegations against Juilliard professor John Corigliano, a longtime composer and faculty member accused by eight former Juilliard attendees for an alleged “unofficial policy” against taking on female students.

Pablo Corigliano, a 47 year-old real estate agent from Buenos Aires, said he was hoping for something more authentic.
