Performer: Seong-Jin Cho

A little over a year after his marathon all-Ravel recital at the Hall, the Korean pianist returns with an exquisitely performed program of Bach, Schoenberg, Robert Schumann and Chopin.

Seong-Jin Cho continues his Artist Portrait series with the LSO by performing Chopin's poetic Second Piano Concerto. 

In a day of music among friends, superstar pianist Seong-Jin Cho displays his mettle in two demanding programmes of chamber music.

The South Korean pianist talks about his love of Ravel, and performing with the Czech Philharmonic, in their season opener and Asian tour this autumn.

With its theme of “Chopin to Paderewski”, the festival honours those musical icons who helped forge the country’s cultural identity. 

Not one, but two appearances by the legendary Martha Argerich crowns the festival's 25th edition.
