One of the leading interpreters of the music of the Americas, Polly Ferman continues to captivate audiences with her outstanding performances of works by Gottschalk, Nazareth, Gershwin, Villa-Lobos, Ginastera and Piazzolla. Her mastery of the literature prompted The Japan Times to recognize her as "a Musical Ambassador of the Americas." Ferman's extensive tours as a soloist have included performances with the Symphonies of San Francisco, Colorado, Vancouver, and Indianapolis, as well as the Tokyo Philharmonic, Kharkov Philharmonic Orchestra (Ukraine), Philippines Philharmonic, Sao Paulo State Symphony and the National Symphony of Argentina in addition to recitals in New York's Carnegie Hall, Tokyo's Suntory and Takemitsu Halls, Virginia's Wolf Trapp, London's St. Martin in the Fields, Koncert Halle of Munich, and the Buenos Aires Colon Theatre. Ferman was the only soloist selected to play at the Pan American Games of 1992, where she performed Villa-Lobos with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. She recently performed to great acclaim in Cuba with the all-female chamber group Camerata Romeu. Her new Imágenes newsletter is online at http://www.jamesarts.com/releases/jan07/PF_nws_010407.htm.
