Emily Bear is seven years old and began her piano studies with Emilio delRosario of the Music Institute of Chicago (MIC). She currently studies piano with Mary Sauer of The Chicago Symphony Orchestra and jazz improvisation with Alan Swain. Additional mentors include Veda Kaplinski of Juilliard. She is equally comfortable playing jazz, classical and her own compositions as is shown by her diverse and extensive concert repertoire.
Emily received national attention when she was a featured guest on The Ellen Degeneres Show. She appeared on 3 episodes in three and a half months: October 3rd and November 23, 2007 and January 8th, 2008. She was asked back for a 4th episode, which aired November 17, 2008.
Emily made her professional debut performing a solo concert at the Ravinia Music Festival in July, 2007 when she was 5 years old. She played a solo 40 minute program mixing classical, jazz and her own compositions. She is the youngest performer in Ravinia’s more than 100 year history. She performed there again on September 7, 2008 and has been asked to return for a third time in July,2009.
On March 24th, 2008, Emily was invited to perform at The White House for The Easter Egg Roll breakfast for President and Mrs. Bush. She performed a 30 minute solo concert mixing jazz and original compositions, followed by 2 songs played especially for President and The First Lady.
Emily was a recipient of a 2008 ASCAP Morton Gould Young Composer Competition award for her original song, “Northern Lights”. She was one of 9 winners in the 18 year old and younger category out of a field of almost 600 applicants. She was asked to be one of two pianists to perform at the awards ceremony. This December she was asked to perform her winning song at Lincoln Center at an ASCAP award ceremony concert.
