Today we are turning our attention to one of the biggest and brightest rising stars in classical music whose seriously awesome piano prowess will be in full view this weekend in two special showings on October 22 and 24 when Fathom presents his solo debut, broadcast internationally in movie theaters - pianist phenomenon Lang Lang performs Lizst's Concerto No. 1 live from Philadelphia on Liszt's 200th birthday. While Lang Lang has taken the classical music scene by storm at only 29, this event will provide the opportunity for an even larger international audience to fall under the spell of his emotional, sensitive and powerful piano concert skills, with the advantage of witnessing Lang perform with the additional symphonic support of the Philadelphia Orchestra under the baton of Charles Dutoit - an orchestra of special personal meaning to Lang. Raised in China, but studying in Philadelphia for nearly a decade makes this a truly momentous culminating event for Lang Lang's life and career as a man and as an artist and we can certainly bet that the Kimmel Arts Center is the perfect venue for such an aural feast for the senses featuring some of Liszt's most famous and beloved compositions. Performances of Liszt's Concerto No. 1 and
Liberstraum No. 3 seem to be forgone conclusions, yet what else from the expressive catalogue of Liszt's work shall Lang perchance sample? The Hungarian Waltz No. 2, perhaps? La Campanella? What else? Be there tomorrow to find out for once and all!
