Monica Jakuc Leverett

Monica Jakuc Leverett is the Elsie Erwin Sweeney professor of music at Smith College in Northampton, MA where she has taught since 1969.  New York audiences first heard Ms. Jakuc at Alice Tully Hall in 1980 in "A Program of Twentieth-Century Music for Two Pianos" with colleague Kenneth Fearn. Her performance of Bach's "Goldberg" Variations at Merkin Hall was hailed by The New York Times as "an auspicious debut...one will observe Ms. Jakuc's career with more than usual interest." Her 1988 London debut included the premier of a piece written for her by Ronald Perera. She has toured Japan and Alaska and appears often on both U.S. coasts. Ms. Jakuc also delivers lecture-recitals on women composers and has been a featured artist at International Association of Women in Music concerts in London and Washington, D.C.

Inspired by Malcolm Bilson, Ms. Jakuc has performed on early pianos since 1986. She is a frequent guest artist at the E.M. Frederick Collection in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, and was an organizer and performer at the international HaydnFest 1990, co-sponsored by Smith and the Westfield Center for Early Keyboard Studies. She is a frequent guest performer with Arcadia Players, Pioneer Valley’s early music ensemble, and often features her 6 1/2 –octave Paul McNulty Graf replica in Schubert concerts.

As for myself, I've loved big trees for years... probably ever since I was a kid and my grandfather and Mom took myself and my brother and sister to a small park in southern New Jersey on the coast of the Delaware River. What impressed me most about the park was not just the Revolutionary War history, but the HUGE trees. A trio of multi-trunked, gigantic sycamores stood watch over the parking lot, and other old trees of seemingly random species were scattered around the park. in retrospect, perhaps those trees were not particularly huge, but they certainly opened my young mind to just how big trees can get and how they live outside of the stereotypical suburban environment (often a sad land of perfect lawns and mediocre trees - Bradford Pears, anyone?)

Location: Warwick, NY 
Bio: I like experimenting with shrubs and trees as a hobby, planting from seed or from tiny sapling, exploring the subtle differences, and seeing which species and cultivars thrive and which ones struggle. For example, I currently have about 23 or 24 different viburnums on my small property, as well as tree saplings from far away like Kalopanax septemlobus (from New Zealand) and Callitropsis nootkatensis (native to the west coast up to Alaska). So far, in five years, I've only lost about 2 or 3 saplings (because my company sent me away on temporary transfers). My house (summer cottage) was built circa 1939 smack dab in the middle of a mountain swamp with black, loamy soil, which turned out to be perfect conditions for my hobby.
