    Presented by Southern Arizona Symphony Orchestra at Desert View Performing Arts Center

    February 11, 2012

    Tao Fan, who holds the rank of National First Conductor in the People's Republic of China, will guest conduct the Southern Arizona Symphony Orchestra in a program featuring his sister - pianist Cong Fan .

    She will perform the Yellow River Piano Concerto, considered the most famous Chinese piano concerto. This piece, which she has recorded, is one of her specialties. The concerto evolved from an eight-movement cantata composed by Xian Xinghai in 1939. It was much revised and modified before this version, a synthesis of Western and Chinese styles, was completed by Yin Chenzong and Chu Wanghua in 1969.

    In addition to the piano concerto, SASO will perform Brahms' Symphony No. 2 in D Major and the Yao Dance Overture by Liu and Mao.
