Triumph

Music expresses the full gamut of the human experience; join the Seattle Festival Orchestra for some of the most triumphant pieces ever written! The concert will start with a bang, featuring the US Premiere of Paean for Warrior and Love by the brilliant Taiwanese composer Ching-Mei Lin. Moving to the old masters, you will hear Beethoven’s glorious Symphony No. 7 in A major. To finish out the concert, the young emerging Taiwanese American pianist Karina Tseng (鄭佳莉) will bring us Rachmaninoff’s powerful Piano Concerto No. 2. With this concert, the orchestra celebrates not only triumphant music, but also some of the great gifts that Taiwan continues to offer classical music.

The UW Taiwan Studies Arts & Culture Program joins the Seattle Festival Orchestra to present a Family Friendly performance on Saturday, February 25th will feature selections from all three pieces, keeping the duration short enough for the young ones in your family.
