Emily Sun in Recital

Storm and sunlight

Emily Sun’s previous performances with the ASO left the audience wanting more. Now, the remarkable young violinist joins another superb Australian musician, pianist Andrea Lam, for a special recital. Grieg’s Sonata opens in darkness but its melodies soon shine with warmth and radiance. The six pieces in Sibelius’ suite range from a virtuosic Gypsy dance to a gentle lullaby. Fazil Say’s Sonata emulates the sounds of the wilderness in a visceral portrayal of our environment’s vulnerability. This compelling program highlights the beauty and fragility of the natural world.
