Haydn, Walker, & Beethoven Featuring Young Artists Competition Winner

Haydn:  Symphony No. 88 in G Major

Walker: Lyric for Strings

Beethoven:  Piano Concerto No. 1 in C Major, Op. 15

Solomon Ge, piano

One of the most characteristic and popular of Haydn’s symphonies, No.88 excels with innovation and musical sleight-of-hand, ingenious even for history’s most illustrious musical trickster.  Lyric for Strings demonstrates American composer and Pulitzer Prize winner George Walker’s gift for beautifully crafted melodic writing.  Solomon Ge, winner of the Ann & Charles Eisemann International Young Artists Competition, performs Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in C Major.
