Stella Faux, winner of the Youth Division, will be performing a movement from Kabalevsky’s Violin Concerto in C Major. Chia-Ying Chan and Hana Lim, winners of the Open Division, will be performing movements from Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 4 and Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 respectively. Rounding out the youthful program are the Peer Gynt Suite No. 1 by Edvard Grieg and The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra by Benjamin Britten.
