Description: Praised by Gramophone magazine for leaving the audience “with a spring in its step,” Lee Mills, five-time Solti Foundation U.S. Career Assistance Award winner, is an internationally acclaimed conductor known for his passion and energy. Musical America hailed him as the 'New Artist of the Month' in March 2022, praising his versatility and exploration of diverse musical styles.
"Mills emerged in his element here, showing an obvious fondness for this epic, unjustifiably neglected score. Along with a compelling dramatic arc, he elicited characterful playing for the many solos that enrich it."
