Following her San Francisco recital début The San Francisco Chronicle wrote “The arrival of Chinese-born pianist Yuja Wang on the musical scene is an exhilarating and unnerving development. To listen to her in action is to re-examine whatever assumptions you may have had about how well the piano can actually be played.” In Rimsky-Korsakov’s evocation of One Thousand and One Nights, his richly melodic music takes flight on a magic carpet of colourfully woven orchestration, depicting the Persian queen’s spellbinding story-telling which transports her listeners to the exotic lands of the imagination.
