17-year old Kit Armstrong is a protégé of the legendary pianist Alfred Brendel, who writes, “It gives me great pleasure to recommend very warmly Kit Armstrong, a brilliantly gifted musician of exceptional promise. Already at present, his musical insight and concentration, his ear for sound and balance, as well as his manual control and sensitivity are remarkable by any standards, and his memory seems prodigious. Here is a pianist who, far beyond his years, embodies an understanding of the great piano works that combines freshness and subtlety, emotion and intellect. Besides, he is a talented composer, an accomplished mathematician, and a delightfully unpretentious person.” Returning to the Hong Kong Philharmonic following his stunning début in 2008, conductor Lawrence Renes brings his trademark freshness and vitality to Tchaikovsky’s stirring Fifth Symphony.
