Conductor Julian Kuerti and the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra are joined by 2018 Gilmore Young Artist Wei Luo and 2020 Gilmore Young Artists Misha Galant and Maxim Lando for a symphonic concert centered around the piano. Ms. Luo performs Tchaikovsky’s magnificent and virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 1 in B-flat Minor, Op. 23, Mr. Galant and Mr. Lando pair up for Poulenc’s Concerto for Two Pianos, and all three pianists join the orchestra for Bach’s virtuosic Concerto for Three Pianos.
2006 Gilmore Artist, Ingrid Fliter, who was supposed to appear for this event, greatly regrets that she will not be able to travel to the US to participate in the 2022 Festival while she tends to family obligations. She looks forward to returning in a future season, and everyone here with The Gilmore family wish her all the very best during this time. Learn more here.
