Pianist Stephen Hough, who was scheduled to perform next weekend (May 7-8) with the Utah Symphony has had to cancel due to a family emergency in the U.K.
The Utah Symphony is fortunate that Orli Shaham is available to join the orchestra as next week’s soloist. In place of the Saint-Saëns Concerto No. 5 for Piano in F major, Ms. Shaham will perform the Saint-Saëns Piano Concerto No. 2 in G minor, Op. 22.
Written in only seventeen days for Russian pianist Anton Rubinstein, Saint-Saëns Second Piano Concerto is arguably his most famous.
A consummate musician recognized for her grace, subtlety and vitality, Orli Shaham has established an impressive international reputation as one of today's most gifted pianists. Hailed by critics on four continents, Ms. Shaham is in demand for her prodigious skills and admired for her interpretations of both standard and modern repertoire. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch recently praised her "wit, passion, delicacy and humor" in a performance with the St. Louis Symphony, and London's Guardian said Ms. Shaham's playing was "perfection" during her recent Proms debut with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
