For his Celebrity Series debut, the passionate film fan has chosen works that conjure iconic moments from opera and screen, including a new fantasia on Bizet’s Carmen, written for him by Marshall Estrin. Pianist Chaeyoung Park, a member of the prestigious Young Concert Artists roster, makes her Celebrity Series debut.

About this Performer
Room-shaking power and soul-soothing poetry come together during Evgeny Kissin’s return to Symphony Hall. Bach's Partita No. 2 for Keyboard gives way to Chopin’s contemplative Nocturnes. Shostakovich’s intense Piano Sonata No. 2 pairs with selections from his homage to Bach, his 24 Preludes and Fugues. Don’t miss a modern master of the keyboard when Evgeny Kissin takes the stage!
