Music Director/Conductor: Christoph Poppen
Violin: Dan Zhu

 

One of the most prominent Chinese artists on the international stage today, violinist Dan Zhu is celebrated for his “Truly brilliant, compelling, and polished” (Boston Musical Intelligencer) performances, and has appeared with top orchestras and conductors such as Boston Symphony Orchestra, Zubin Mehta, Christoph Eschenbach etc. In his début with Hong Kong Sinfonietta under the baton of Music Director Christoph Poppen, he will play Szymanowski’s Violin Concerto No 2 – a beautifully lyrical, rhapsodic and virtuosic work with enchanting folk undertones, originally written for legendary violinist Paul Kochanski. The concert will open with the Hong Kong première of acclaimed composer Valentin Silvestrov’s atmospheric Stille Musik, and conclude with Tchaikovsky’s timelessly captivating Symphony No 5.
