A shipwreck, a young princess, the sea and Sinbad’s ship—the many tales of 1001 Arabian Nights come to life in Rimsky-Korsakov’s vivid symphonic poem Scheherazade. With sensuous violin solos standing in for the legendary storyteller, “Rimsky” weaves a sumptuous, richly hued tapestry. Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Music Director Laureate Robert Spano presents the young powerhouse Jae Hong Park, winner of the 2021 Busoni International Piano Competition, in a delightful rarity by Scriabin and opens the program with Sibelius’ enigmatic Tapiola, a tone poem inspired by the fiercely rugged Scandinavian wilderness.
Pianist Jae Hong Park is praised for his mesmerizing virtuosity and astounding stage presence. Described as “fearless” and “meticulous” artist, Jae Hong has emerged as one of the most sought-after pianists of his generation with his triumph from 2021 Feruccio Busoni International Piano Competition, where he not only received the first prize but also four special prizes. Also winner of the Gina Bachauer and the Cleveland International Piano Competition for Young Artists, he has won top prizes at the Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Masters Competition, Ettlingen International Competition and many others.
