JoAnn Falletta

JoAnn Falletta is a conductor known primarily for her incisive interpretations of American music (contemporary and earlier works, including many compositions by female composers). She has developed a broad repertory over the years, taking in many of the standards by Mozart, Beethoven, and Debussy, as well as those of lesser currency by Reger, Schreker, Bax, and Ibert. Falletta has led orchestras across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. She has made over 100 recordings for several different labels, winning several major awards. To celebrate her 25th anniversary with the Buffalo Philharmonic, Naxos reissued 20 albums that were previously released by the Beau Fleuve label.
