As a spellbinding initiation into the full extent of keyboard instruments’ unique capacity for heart-stirring drama, this programme is hard to beat. This showstopper of a concert features two significant rare works, performed by two firecracker virtuosos of the keys.
Hong Kong-born, Berlin-based pianist Chiyan Wong has built a global reputation for his extreme technical mastery, combined with a sensitive, elegant approach to the instrument. He will perform Strauss’ 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘬𝘦, one of the great German Romantic composer’s innovative pieces that shows the clearest influence of Brahms.
During the same evening, Cameron Carpenter, who has spent two decades rewriting the rules of classical organ composition and performance with a daringly flamboyant style, will take on 𝘚𝘺𝘮𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘦, usually considered the magnum opus of Joseph Jongen. The late-19th- and early-20th-century Belgian composer was also an accomplished organist who studied with Strauss, and his work bears his mentor’s clear influence.
Both will be accompanied by the HK Phil, under the baton of Lin Daye, Music Director and Principal Conductor of the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra, and the first Chinese winner of the prestigious Sir Georg Solti International Conductors’ Competition. Providing a contrast in both era and culture, the orchestra will also perform Chinese composer Wang Danhong’s 𝘚𝘰𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘯 𝘙𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦.

節目介紹
超凡琴藝技驚四座　管風琴、鋼琴與交響樂交織華麗美樂夜
管風琴王者金馬倫．卡彭特與香港知名鋼琴家王致仁，將會在這場音樂會相繼登場，並聯同香港管弦樂團演繹兩位音樂大師之作，他們分別是德國作曲家李察．史特勞斯，以及曾接受史特勞斯教導並深受啟蒙的比利時作曲家約瑟夫．容根。觀眾將能感受卡彭特與王致仁對曲目的獨到演繹，以及他們技驚四座的超凡琴藝！
音樂會由首位於蘇提爵士國際指揮大賽中奪冠的中國指揮、深圳交響樂團現任音樂總監兼首席指揮林大葉執棒，他將聯同港樂，以中央音樂學院作曲教授王丹紅一曲洋溢嶺南風情的《粵彩南風》掀起序幕。接着王致仁將和樂團攜手獻上李察．史特勞斯早期作品D小調《滑稽曲》，該作結合布拉姆斯作品結構與李斯特式炫技風格，充滿玩味、幽默、諷刺色彩，對鋼琴家與交響樂團頗具挑戰，加上此曲較少被列作演奏曲目，所以這次機會可說是相當難得。
到了下半場，卡彭特與樂團將會共同演繹約瑟夫．容根的《交響協奏曲》。該作品既是管風琴協奏曲的著名曲目，也是容根其中一首最負盛名之作，充分展示其高超的管弦樂與管風琴作曲技巧。管風琴音量宏大、音域寬廣，管弦樂團則樂音豐富，兩者於此曲皆發揮得淋漓盡致；比利時小提琴家及作曲家易沙意，更以「一首寫給兩支管弦樂團的交響樂」形容此曲，可見作品之博大精深。
樂迷將於一個晚上，得到管風琴、鋼琴與交響樂的多重享受與體驗，一眾演奏家傾力施展渾身解數，迸發一場音色豐富、爆發力十足的華麗演出。
