ABOUT THE EVENT
CONCERT 1: Artist Highlight: Myung Hwang PARK (Composer & Pianist)
Our festival kickstarts with a program highlighting our composer-in-residence and pianist, Myung Hwang PARK (France/South Korea). Two of his newest works for piano solo, "Souvenir de" (2021) and "Tales Under the Snow" (2022), the latter which was commissioned by Westfjords Piano Festival, will be premiered in concert by artistic director, Andrew J. Yang.
Then, PARK will perform a fascinating, deep, and powerful program of mostly Baroque era and more modern works:
J.S. Bach: Prelude and Fugue in E-flat minor BWV 853 (1722)
Tristan Murail: La Mandragore (1993)
