Piano virtuoso, recording artist, and 2006 Honens International Piano Competition winner Minsoo Sohn will set the stage ablaze in an all-Liszt recital, masterfully blending the nocturnal tenderness of the Consolations with the pyrotechnic fireworks of the Transcendental Études.
A true heir to Franz Liszt carries on composer’s legacy
Combining masterful virtuosity with artistic expression, Minsoo Sohn embodies the ideals of musical excellence in both his playing and his teaching. He studied at the New England Conservatory in Boston with Russell Sherman and Wha Kyung Byun, and has recently been appointed Professor of Piano at his alma mater. Sohn is a highly sought-after piano teacher, and among his students is the piano prodigy Yunchan Lim, the youngest performer to win the Van Cliburn Piano Competition at the age of 18.
Much like Sohn, Franz Liszt was a genius performer with a natural aptitude for the stage. A prolific thinker and composer, his six Consolations are imbued with the melancholy and fervent devotion of a collection of poems entitled Poetic and Religious Harmonies, while the 12 Transcendental Études exploit every known piano technique in a set of highly original and harmonically daring structures. Musical intelligence and breathtaking virtuosity were the hallmarks of Liszt’s performance style, and he has found in Sohn a perfect heir to carry on his shining legacy.
Merging intellectual rigour with superior technique, and profound musicality with appealing intimacy, Sohn will take us on a journey of beautifully articulated and radiantly sparkling interpretations in this all-Liszt recital.

Hong Kong Disneyland Park is more compact than Shanghai Disneyland, and a day is basically enough for a staggered peak. The project is a lot of fun, the park facilities are exquisite, and individual projects are more exciting. The performances of the Lion King, Forest Small World and the Magic Bookstore are quite exciting. The three projects on the Iron Man side are more exciting, and the baby is excited to play twice. The fireworks show is also very good. In short, the whole family had a great time, and the child said that he would come again.

Always a highlight, with theme park rides and wildlife viewings in beautiful, scenic South coast of Hong Kong. Just an MTR stop away from Admiralty!

The red diamond experience is superb. There are many people in the cable car queue on May 1st. On the 1st, I saw that the red diamond was overcrowded and immediately placed an order, because it was necessary to book two days in advance. The red diamond saved at least two hours, and the Merry Hall and the viewing platform were also worth it! It&#39;s just a bit late to go, and it&#39;s a pity that some places such as Madame Tussauds have not gone. highly recommended!
