The Toledo Symphony welcomes the incandescent Yuja Wang to Toledo in a Classics Series Special Event. At age 20, this rising star has already established herself as one of the most significant artists of her generation.
“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.”
The San Francisco Chronicle
Lead by Carolyn Kuan, conductor, Wang performance Tchaikovsky’s adored First Piano Concerto.
