Teddy Abrams, conductor
Yuja Wang, piano

Liszt, Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2
Ligeti, Concerto for Piano and Orchestra
Bartók, Concerto for Orchestra

When Yuja Wang and Teddy Abrams last shared the stage in Louisville, it led to a Grammy win. Now, the longtime collaborators reunite for a night of electrifying virtuosity, diving into the bold, untamed sounds of Hungary.

Liszt’s Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 kicks things off with a whirlwind of fire and flair, followed by Ligeti’s Piano Concerto, a dazzling, shape-shifting masterwork that Wang navigates with “sly, jazzy exuberance” (Gramophone). Closing the program is Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra, a tour-de-force that spotlights every section of the orchestra in a vibrant, folk-infused celebration.
