Shostakovich Prelude and Fugue No.24 in D minor Op.87 | Schumann Fantasie in C major Op.17
This concert introduces Heejae to Manchester audiences following her success in the 2015 Leeds International Piano Competition, where she was placed second overall and declared the winner of the Terence Judd-Hallé Orchestra Prize. The Mid-days partnership with the Hallé Orchestra means that they are able to offer a performance opportunity to the Terence Judd-Hallé Orchestra Prize winners. Heejae is a pianist of passion and sensitivity, as her performance of Schumann’s great, groundbreaking Fantasie in C major will certainly demonstrate.
