The young Chinese pianist Yutong Sun has been a winner at several prestigious international competitions, culminating in the first prize and Gold Medal at the 54th Jaén competition in 2012. For his Laureate Recital he has constructed a programme that displays his expressive maturity and technical accomplishments across the repertoire. Beethoven’s Sonata No 26, ‘Les adieux’ reveals its fabled cantabile sound world, whilst Lowell Liebermann’s 1989 Gargoyles, Op 29 is an approachable, sensuous and vital piece of contemporary writing. Mussorgsky’s vast Pictures at an Exhibition is one of the virtuosic peaks of nineteenth-century pianism.
