Music Mondays: A Midsummer’s Tale

This page is also available in / Cette page est également disponible en: English (Anglais)

Named as one of « Canada’s Top 30 under 30 musicians of 2022 » by CBC, Victoria Wong made her concerto debut with orchestra at age five. She is the First Prize winner of Lancaster International Piano Competition, International Fringe Award, EPTA International Piano Competition, San Francisco International Music Competition, and is a top prizewinner in the Canadian Chopin Competition. We are thrilled to host her for this Music Mondays performance.

A collection of little pieces, this program promises to be a refreshing hour of storytelling. The first three on the program are all Romantic works, and reminiscent of ancient legends: Paderewski’s Légende Op. 16 No. 1, Clara Schumann’s 4 Piece fugitives Op. 15 No.1, and Chopin’s Ballade No. 4

The last three are all composed in the 20th century, but conjure up equally exciting narrations: Mathieu’s Printemps Canadien reminds us of the brief but beautiful Canadian springtime, Chen Yi’s Duo Ye drums out an old traditional dance, and Ravel’s Gaspard de la Nuit movements are poems describing mythical creatures.

This performance will be recorded for broadcast by CBC MUSIC.
