The NSO’s magnificent new season officially begins!

Prepare yourself for a night of glamor and romance as classical music’s newest rock star Yunchan Lim performs one of the world’s greatest masterpieces, Rachmaninoff’s sweeping Piano Concerto No. 2. Hailed as a “one-in-a-million talent” (Dallas Morning News) with “the potential to become a once-in-generation pianist” (The New Yorker), Lim became the youngest Gold Award winner at the 2022 Van Cliburn International Competition.

Experience his electrifying NSO debut at this dynamic concert that also features Kennedy Center Composer-in-Residence Carlos Simon’s celebratory Four Black American Dances.
