Two winners of the Yehudi Menuhin International Competition—Livia Sohn and Kerson Leong—along with NY Philharmonic oboist/English Hornist Ryan Roberts and a spectacular chamber orchestra, perform a dynamic program of J.S. Bach and Arvo Pärt. Referenced as the “Bach of our Century” with his minimalist yet incredibly accessible compositional style, Pärt’s music—described as “transcendental and otherworldly”—is the most performed of a living classical composer since 2011.
