About this event
This concert production is a highlight of The Philadelphia Orchestra's 2026–27 season, taking place at Marian Anderson Hall. The artistic vision centers on pairing established orchestral masterpieces with the virtuosic talent of Yunchan Lim, the youngest pianist ever to win the Van Cliburn competition. Under the baton of Principal Guest Conductor Marin Alsop, the orchestra will navigate a dynamic and emotionally charged program. The curation balances the blazing technical demands of Rachmaninoff with the dramatic American lyricism of Samuel Barber and the imaginative orchestration of Igor Stravinsky.
