World Premiere of Piano Concerto No. 2 by Ketil Hvoslef, performed by the Galveston Symphony Orchestra and Andrew Staupe, piano.
Since her debut as Queen of the night in Mozart’s Magic Flute, dramatic coloratura soprano, Ji Young Jeon has performed the role over 500 times – and has sung with opera companies worldwide, including Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain, Ireland, Slovakia, Thailand, Japan, China, United States and her native South Korea. Critics have praised her for her “stunning, sensational vocal talent, paired with supreme musicianship and an immense dramatic stage presence.” We are thrilled to be working with Miss Jeon and will complement her arias with some of opera’s most beautiful orchestra pieces, including Wagner’s gorgeous prelude to Lohengrin, Act I -ending with Respighi’s thrilling – and loud, be prepared! – Pines of Rome; with a different kind of song: live recordings of birds in Rome!
