Charles Richard-Hamelin.
Chopin, Fauré & Bologne: This (almost) all French concert by Vancouver Symphony Orchestra features award-winning Canadian Chopin specialist Charles Richard-Hamelin in a ravishing program led by Maestro Otto Tausk.
The Assante Vancouver Centre Masterworks Diamond performance takes place on January 28 and 29 at 8 pm at the Orpheum Theatre.
Richard-Hamelin is recognized as “fluent, multifaceted and tonally seductive… a technician of exceptional elegance and sophistication” (BBC Music Magazine). In 2015, he received the Silver Medal at the International Frederic Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw and the Krystian Zimerman Prize for best performance of a sonata.
The program features Symphonie No. 2 by Joseph Bologne; Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 1; and Pelleas and Melissande Suite by Fauré.
Piano soloists appear with the generous assistance of Sheahan and Gerald McGavin, CM, OBC.
COVID-19 safety measures include all VSO performances being sold to 50-percent capacity until further notice; no intermission; masking requirements at all times during the concert; and a requirement that those 12 and older must show proof of vaccination in order to be admitted.
