Marking Lortie’s first Halifax appearance in more than forty years, this concert offers a rare chance to hear two distinguished pianists together in live collaboration. The program includes Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 9” in Franz Liszt’s powerful arrangement for two pianos, bringing one of the most iconic works in the orchestral repertoire into an intimate chamber setting. Long admired for the insight, brilliance, and individuality he brings to the piano repertoire, Lortie has performed with many of the world’s leading orchestras and in major halls across the globe. Ovcharenko has quickly built an international career with appearances at Carnegie Hall, the Concertgebouw, Wigmore Hall, and many other leading stages.
