Celebrity Series of Boston presents Tony Siqi Yun, piano
 
 

A Groton Hill exclusive!

Still in his early 20s and only two years out of Juilliard, Canadian pianist Tony Siqi Yun is already making waves as a soloist and recitalist. Praised for his refinement, muscular sound, and intimate expressivity, Yun has “an emergent big personality” (Philadelphia Inquirer) that makes him a pianist you’ll want to experience firsthand.

Yun’s debut program spans lyrical Bach/Busoni, Beethoven's radiant "Waldstein" Sonata, Berio's crystalline Wasserklavier, Liszt's virtuosic Réminiscences de Norma, and Brahms' epic Piano Sonata No. 3. It's a thrilling journey through color, clarity, and intensity—perfectly suited to showcase the express range of this rising star.

A compelling introduction to a must-hear young artist, the program promises to showcase the poetry and power that set Tony Siqi Yun apart on the global stage.
