Yuja Wang makes a long-anticipated return to The Soraya, following her 2016 debut. Since, she has secured her reputation as one of the most celebrated artists around the world. Consistent with Wang’s recent focus on Frédéric Chopin, she chose the composer’s Piano Concerto No. 1. Wang is joined by her regular partner, the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, a pan-European ensemble created to tour globally, having performed in over 40 nations. The orchestra will also perform Sergei Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 1, often called the “Classical Symphony” for Prokofiev’s intent to model his early work after Mozart and Haydn.
