Yue Bao conductor Li Huanzhi Spring Festival Overture The Symphony’s 2024 Lunar New Year Celebration continues our tradition, first developed by Music Director Xian Zhang, of blending music from East and West in a celebration of cultural collaboration. This year, under the baton of conductor Yue Bao, the Symphony will perform selections from Huang Ruo’s Folk Songs for Orchestra and Zhou Tian’s Gift plus tried-and-true favorites like Spring Festival Overture. Rising star Tony Siqi Yun joins at the piano to perform selections from the Yellow River Concerto and Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G.
