Dalia Atlas, born in Haifa Israel,
graduated from the Music Academy of Jerusalem, and studied conducting with the
most distinguished Maestros abroad. By entering International Competitions for
Conducting, she won 7 prizes, and became the first woman conductor in history to
gain those prizes. She was immediately offered with invitations to conduct major
international orchestras. Dalia Atlas was honored by the mayor of Haifa with
the title of a Distinguished Citizen of Haifa.
She received also various
prizes, nationally and internationally for her life achievements. Music
critics worldwide have enthused about her talent and ability to extract from
orchestras masterly interpretations and performances of the highest musical
level.
The Lord Yehudi Menuhin wrote: "Professor Dalia Atlas is one of
the most effective, impressive and capable conductors I know…" "She is thus
an all-round musician, whom I can recommend without hesitation." The music
critic Donald Vroon wrote about her in the American Record Guide as: "One of
today's finer conductors."
Dalia Atlas' rich repertoire includes about
750 scores, among them unknown music, some of her discoveries, and also
arrangements of her own. Dalia Atlas has conducted 82 orchestras in concerts,
festivals and recordings, radio and T.V. in 29 countries. Among them the Israel
Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic, Philharmonia, Helsinki Philharmonic, Stockholm
Philharmonic, Czech Radio Orchestra, Berliner Simphoniker, and
more.
Dalia Atlas has recorded more than twenty CD's, particularly of
unusual repertoires, which she has also performed in concerts and at
international festivals.
In her own native country, Israel, Dalia Atlas
was the founder of many musical and cultural organizations, orchestras and
choirs, professional and educational, where she was Music Director and Principal
Conductor for many years and professor at the Technion. She was also invited to
the MIT several times as guest professor.
During the Gulf War, when
evening concerts in Israel were impossible, Dalia Atlas formed a new orchestra
consisting of new immigrants from Russia – the Atlas Camerata Orchestra, with
whom she has toured and recorded. For that orchestra she dedicated and recorded
her orchestral arrangement of Schubert's String Quintet, Op. 163, which was
broadcasted worldwide and won much critical praise.
Special attention was
given to Dalia Atlas' philanthropic ideals by traveling voluntarily all over the
country for twenty five years with her orchestras "Pro Musica Orchestra, Israel"
and "Atlas Camerata", promoting music education for children and in concert
halls.
Her research on the music of Ernest Bloch resulted in her
undertaking the promotion and recordings of the composer's neglected
compositions. Dalia Atlas recorded 25 negelcted orchestral works by Ernest
Bloch for ASV and Naxos.
Dalia Atlas is the founder and the Head of "The
Ernest Bloch Society in Israel" as well as "Honorary Vice President" of the
"Ernest Bloch International Society", London, UK.
Since 2005 Dalia Atlas
decided to terminate all her permanent positions in order to share her wide
repertoire and experience as a guest conductor all over the world with
orchestras, operas and festivals.
