This season, Yuja Wang returns to California in a highly anticipated series of concerts with the San Francisco Symphony, under the baton of Michael Tilson Thomas. On September 28, 29 & 30 and October 1, Ms. Wang plays Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 1, on evenings that also include selections from Bright Sheng’s new opera Dream of the Red Chamber, and Stravinsky’s The Firebird Suite (1919 Version), and Le Chant du rossignol.
Yuja plays Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 2 with the SFS on November 2, 3 & 4. The Orchestra also performs Tilson Thomas’ Agnegram and Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7 for these dates, which serve as a preview for their extensive tour throughout Asia later in November. Tour dates, venues, and programme details can be found via Yuja’s schedule online.
