SEOHYUN KIM violin, ERSO, conductor GILBERT VARGA

Maestro Gilbert Varga returns to ERSO in February. This time he will bring Arthur Honegger’s Symphony No. 2 to the stage, performed by an exciting mix of instruments. In addition to the strings, the composer used one trumpet in the symphony. Under Varga’s guidance, ERSO will perform compositions by Ruth Crawford Seeger for the first time during this concert. Although nowadays, she is primarily known as a folk music expert, Crawford Seeger was a ground-breaking ultra-modernist in her youth, whose experimental music predicted the development of modernism in American music. Music for Small Orchestra, performed during this concert, was her first orchestral piece, while Andante for Strings comes from her only string quartet.

15-year-old talented violin soloist Seohyun Kim will perform Violin Concerto No. 2 by Polish violin virtuoso Henryk Wieniawski. Kim received the first prize at the 2023 Tibor Varga Violin Competition (Tibor Varga is the father of Gilbert Varga), while also being the youngest contestant.
