Chopin will also be featured when two rising young piano stars—Zoltán Fejérvári and Kuok-Wai Lio—take to the Weill Recital Hall stage to showcase their solo skills and also partner in music for two pianos. Their program will begin with Chopin’s Mazurkas, Op. 24 and his Fantasy in F Minor, Op. 49. The Mazurkas are melodically rich and rooted in the folk traditions of his native Poland, while the Fantasy in F Minor boldly explores innovative harmonies. The program also includes works by Schumann and Mozart.
