EMERGING ARTISTRY
Lun Li Returns with a New Emerging Soloist Competition Winner!
Superstar violinist Lun Li takes on Bartók’s incredibly difficult Violin Concerto No. 2; meanwhile, the winner of our 2023 Emerging Soloist Competition, Ben Albertson, will redefine what you think is possible on the harp with a concert piece by Gabriel Pierné. We have paired these two incredible performers with a musical devotional by Florence Price and Ravel’s beloved evocation of the 16th-century Spanish court dance: the pavane.
Maurice Ravel — Pavane for a Dead Princess
Gabriel Pierné — Konzertstück (Concert Piece) for Harp and Orchestra, op. 39
Florence Price — Adoration (orch. Elaine Fine)
Béla Bartók — Violin Concerto No. 2, Sz. 112
RUN TIME: 1 hour, 22 minutes (including intermission)
