Brilliant and breathtaking, Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No.3 in D minor captivates with its alluring melodies from the very beginning. The soloist, Nobuyuki Tsujii, a former child prodigy who made his major Tokyo debut at the age of 12, presents this challenging piece mastered through Braille and ear. Experience the depth of expression he brings to every note.
The program continues with Prokofiev’s Symphony No.7, conducted by Brazilian maestro Eduardo Strausser. The symphony features a daring opening movement and, despite its foreboding strings, rewards the listener with sweeping melodies and a gratifying finale.
To conclude the performance, Tchaikovsky’s Waltz from Sleeping Beauty offers a delightful and nostalgic dance, perfect for anyone celebrating a 16th birthday or those looking forward to one in 2024.
