Guest Biography:

Julian Lampert's hallmark is Versatility; between the music of Gibbons, Bach, Beethoven, and Rachmaninoff, to his own compositions within latin, jazz, gospel and classical genres, Julian covers over 400 years of musical styles. 

Born into a musical family in Moscow, he immigrated with his family to the U.S. as a young child. Julian studied piano, harmony and counterpoint with his mother, Dr. Elyena Miremonde, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory. At eight, he gave his first recital––an all-Tchaikovsky program. Four years later, he made his concerto debut under conductor Victor Rosenbaum and The Cambridge Concerto Players. This brought him to the attention of Richard Probst, at that time Director of Concerts & Artists at Steinway, and later Vice-President of Harold Shaw Concerts. Under Richard Probst’s auspices, Mr. Lampert would make many appearances in the United States, Europe and Russia. He has been coached by some of the world’s most distinguished artists, as Schura Cherkassky, Dorothy Taubman and Eliza Hansen who selected him for a Master-Course in Hamburg, Germany, in 1986 and ’87.

At 16, his recital at the St. Paul Trois-Chateaux Film Festival was broadcast by French Television. A year later, Mr. Lampert appeared on Radio France Internationale’s contemporary music series with Valery Afanassiev. In 1989, Mr. Lampert participated in the Marlboro Music Festival where he was coached by Rudolf Serkin and Richard Goode. He was the youngest artist at the Scotia Music Festival in 1991, directed that year by Pierre Boulez. At Amherst College, he worked with Pulitzer-Prize winning composer Lewis Spratlan and jazz conductor/author, Andrew Jaffe. Mr. Lampert was harpsichordist and pianist for Amherst Collegium Musicum and the Bach Festival directed by Blanche Moyse. He appeared at the Hall of the Kosciuszko Foundation in two festivals of Chopin directed by David Dubal.

After meeting with Fred Rogers—creator of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood—who attended Mr. Lampert’s debut in Pittsburgh in 1999, Julian was inspired to write music for young people. He wrote many pieces and songs for music & arts workshops presented at The Miremonde Arts Center, founded by Mr. Lampert’s mother, Elyena Miremonde (please see www.miremondearts.org). He has twice served as jury-member of the Nicholas Flagello Young Pianists Competition of New York and has coached young composers in the Songcatchers Program in New York.

Since 1999, Mr. Lampert has been engaged as composer by figure-skating legends Ludmila & Oleg Protopopov, two-time Olympic gold medalists. They danced to his music in several televised productions, including their historic return to Russia in 2005 for the first time since their defection. In 1996, he was honored by the Scriabin Society of Moscow by being selected to inaugurate a festival of Scriabin’s music for the 125’th anniversary of his birth.

In 2006, Mr. Lampert made his debut with the Westchester Chamber Orchestra under Barry Charles Hoffman, performing Beethoven’s Fourth Concerto. Since 2007, The First Lady of St. Martin, Josianne Fleming, has presented Julian in series of recitals presented by the Rotary Club of Guadeloupe.

As Artistic Director of The Miremonde Arts Concert Series, Mr. Lampert has presented a remarkably diverse range of music, from the Baroque and Classical to Jazz and Latin genres. At Miremonde Arts, he has collaborated with Stefan Hoskuldsson—Metropolitan Opera Principal Flutist, The Kopelman String Quartet, Grammy-winning duo Eddy Davis & Conal Fowkes, and R&B vocalist Clayton Bryant, among others.

This year will see the release of two albums: "In Between", featuring originals within jazz, latin and gospel music, and "Lampert in Concert", presenting music by Haydn, Beethoven, Prokofiev, and Scriabin.

 Interviewing James Kozlik on
Local Community Building

Jan. 11, 2014

by Christopher Rudy, Host of BBS Radio's Cosmic LOVE

James is a permaculture advocate who applies these principles to community building.  We’ll be discussing different processes for culturing community with practical models of ‘resource sharing’ and ‘skill exchange’ utilizing the
Currency of Conscience’.

Consider how:

·        All social problems are, at heart, ‘communication’ problems – how we
come into unity to overcome disempowering divisions with community.

·        The community building process is inseparable from enlightened “TLC” (TeLeComm) that optimizes heart coherence in our social networks.

·        Cooperative communication coordinations is the ordained paradigm shift from lockstep matrix group think to open systems of conscious evolution.

·        Open systems of freedom and opportunity make closed system of tyranny and austerity obsolete. This is the SHIFT from highly centralized, top-down programming of mainstream “BS” (Belief Systems)… and it is a paradigm shift towards highly decentralized, bottom-up, grassroots-to-‘Net-roots’ social Conscience in our local and global social networks.

Communication of, by and for community-social Conscience
translates to Conscience Currency.

The coordinates for this paradigm shift applies to a any social network community… defining and refining a process of ‘information’s ecology’ for organizing all information IN FORMATION… with a heart.

The Blessing of Global TeLeComm:
co-Creating in the new "grass-roots"
(Net roots) for "permanent culture"
(sustainable permaculture).  

For example, consider how the Internet has virtually eliminated time and space with instant, everywhere and interactive networking capabilities in our global social network communities.  Mankind is awakening to awareness of ourselves as the Family of Man in a global village. Local and global interdependence is a fact of life.  Almost half of the world's 7.2 billion people are now connected with smartphones, tablets, lap-top and desk-top computers.

Is it true that global Netizens now have a communications platform
 to get our act together as the Family of Man in a global village?

Are you aware that we could now create a permanent culture
   (sustainable permaculture) of, by and for ALL global Netizens?

Would you agree that humanity’s conscious evolutionary ascent
will make dimwit devolutionary descent obsolete?

There’s nothing more valuable than a vision for
 global TeLeComm that has found it’s time.

More high ground positioning points HERE.

So welcome James Kozlik to Cosmic LOVE 
with your presence.
