Chow Sang Sang Proudly Sponsors: Celebrating Aristo Sham
Programme
After capturing world attention as the newest Van Cliburn laureate, pianist Aristo Sham returns home to perform Rachmaninov’s fiery and youthful First Piano Concerto. A familiar face to HK Phil audiences, Sham last appeared with the Orchestra in 2022 in Mendelssohn’s concerto – one of the works he performed on his path to Cliburn victory – and first took the stage with the HK Phil at just 11, performing Beethoven’s First Piano Concerto in 2007. Renowned American conductor David Robertson, acclaimed for bringing clarity to even the most complex scores, leads the evening with two symphonic works from different era, yet connected with the masterly developed motives and textures: Sibelius final symphony and John Adams’s Doctor Atomic Symphony.
The concert runs approximately 1 hour 45 minutes with an intermission.
Please note latecomers will miss the whole symphony, and the audience is advised to allow enough time for admission.
