  • Joyce Yang Piano Blessed With
    Joyce Yang Piano Blessed with “poetic and sensitive pianism” (Washington Post) and a “wondrous sense of color” (San Francisco Classical Voice), pianist Joyce Yang captivates audiences with her virtuosity, lyricism, and interpretive sensitivity. As a Van Cliburn International Piano Competition silver medalist and Avery Fisher Career Grant recipient, Yang showcases her colorful musical personality in solo recitals and collaborations with the world’s top orchestras and chamber musicians. Yang came to international attention in 2005 when she won the silver medal at the 12th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. The youngest contestant at 19 years old, she took home two additional awards: the Steven De Groote Memorial Award for Best Performance of Chamber Music (with the Takàcs Quartet) and the Beverley Taylor Smith Award for Best Performance of a New Work. Since her spectacular debut, she has blossomed into an “astonishing artist” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung). She has performed as soloist with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, the Baltimore, Detroit, Houston, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Sydney, and Toronto symphony orchestras, Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, and the BBC Philharmonic (among many others), working with such distinguished conductors as Edo de Waart, Lorin Maazel, James Conlon, Leonard Slatkin, David Robertson, Bramwell Tovey, Peter Oundjian, and Jaap van Zweden. In recital, Yang has taken the stage at New York’s Lincoln Center and Metropolitan Museum; the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC; Chicago’s Symphony Hall; and Zurich’s Tonhalle. Yang kicks off the 2015/16 season with a tour of eight summer festivals (Aspen, Bridgehampton, Grand Tetons, La Jolla, Ravinia, Seattle, Southeastern Piano Festival, and Bravo!

INCONCERT 35 TONIGHT’S CONCERT AT A GLANCE BRUNO MANTOVANI Finale • French composer Mantovani is also a conductor and the director of the Paris Conservatoire, where he studied with great distinction before serving as an administrator. His work explores the ties between music and other artistic disciplines, while also engaging with the Western classical music tradition. • Mantovani wrote this dramatic piece for the 50th Besançon International Competition. He had no particular inspiration in mind, other than a piece in the style of a finale. “This is exactly what I attempted to create,” he explains, “a jubilatory feeling that marks a point of no return, and above all, an impression of an achievement, of resolution.” SERGEI RACHMANINOFF Concerto No. 2 in C minor for Piano and Orchestra, Op. 18 • Rachmaninoff composed this piece after a long period of depression set off by the strongly negative reaction to his First Symphony.
