About Carmen Helena Téllez

Carmen-Helena Téllez (born 25 September 1955, in Caracas, Venezuela) is a Venezuelan-American music conductor, producer and composer. Reviewed as "a quiet force behind contemporary music in the United States today” (www.Sequenza21.com), she has been a pioneer of new modes of classical music presentation, through the exploration of the relationship of music with other arts and technology, and the discovery of underrepresented composers (especially women and Latin American authors) with her performances of contemporary works for chorus, orchestra and new opera. She advocates for the reconsideration of the concept of art music, and she proposes the co-creative role of the listener in the value of music as art. Outside of current professional conventions, Carmen-Helena Téllez has composed new music as her inter-artistic projects have required it. She has conducted in the United States, Europe, Israel and Latin America. After her tenure as Music Director of the National Chorus of Spain, she joined the music faculty at Indiana University in 1992, as Director of the Latin American Music Center and the Contemporary Vocal Ensemble. For these organizations, she commissioned and recorded several new works, produced 14 CDs of Latin American music, and organized several Inter-American Composition Workshops. During the 2001-2002 period, she was the Resident Conductor of the pioneering Contemporary Chamber Players of Chicago and became the Music Director of the Pocket Opera Players in New York City. In 2012, she became Professor of Conducting at the University of Notre Dame, where she founded the doctoral Choral Conducting program and has led a series of musical works with new modes of interdisciplinary presentation.
