Timothy Durkovic was recently named "Man of the Week" by Crónica--the Guatemalan equivalent to TIME Magazine

October 16, 2007

Melissa McIntosh Landis, soprano, and Timothy Durkovic, pianist, are scheduled to perform the music of Charles Griffes, Amy Beach, Carrie Jacobs Bond and John Alden Carpenter’s Gitanjali Monday, November 5 at 8 p.m in the Fine Arts, Room 101 on.

Timothy Durkovic has been hailed by critics as " Guatemala 's grand national revelation of the twentieth century." Born and raised in Guatemala City , he began his piano studies at the age of five. Making his first solo appearance when he was eleven, he soon thereafter entered the National Conservatory of Music of Guatemala studying with the renowned Consuelo Medinilla. He graduated from the conservatory with highest honors, receiving a Bachelor of Arts in piano performance at the age of 17. At the same time, he made his debut with the Guatemala Symphony Orchestra performing the Brahms D-Minor piano concerto. Always received in his homeland with national pride, he was recently named "Man of the Week" by Crónica--the Guatemalan equivalent to TIME Magazine.

Melissa McIntosh Landis earned her Bachelor of Science in Voice Performance from Southern Nazarene University ( Bethany , Oklahoma ) and her Master of Music in Opera Performance from Oklahoma City University . Melissa continued her education at USC, where she received the head teaching assistantship as doctoral candidate in voice performance and studied with soprano Elizabeth Hynes. She has taught at USC, and is currently a member of the applied voice faculties of the University of La Verne and Mount San Antonio College.

Tickets are $15 general admission and $10 for students and seniors. For more ticket information call the Saddleback College Ticket office at 949-582-4656.
