Brahms’s 22 Years of Creation Distilled at Zhang Haochen’s Fingertips
After performing Rachmaninov’s complete piano concertos with the HK Phil in Shenzhen in 2025, Van Cliburn Gold Medal winner and Avery Fisher Prize recipient Zhang Haochen returns to perform Brahms’s two piano concertos for Hong Kong audiences and kick off the Salute to Brahms series. Hailed by New York Arts as a “musician of extraordinary technical mastery and perception”, Zhang shares his profound affinity for Brahms through poetic pianism and commanding virtuosity, culminating in the monumental Second Piano Concerto, a masterpiece of singular structure, expansive emotional range and sweeping lyricism. The two splendid concerts open with two of Brahms’s early orchestral serenades, under rising star conductor Christoph Altstaedt.
