Piano soloist announcement: the historic Sunriver Resort Great Hall sets the stage for two groundbreaking performances featuring Ukrainian Dmytro Choni, one of the best young pianists in the world.
Choni, a brand new medalist of the Cliburn International Piano Competition, joins the Sunriver Music Festival Orchestra in a stunningly beautiful piano-centric evening on August 15 and performs solo on August 16. Visit sunrivermusic.org now for tickets.
Choni began piano in his native Kyiv (Ukraine) when he was four years old. Now, a medalist of multiple international competitions, he says, “Music is always kind of a hideaway from what’s going on in the world. Through the music, you can try to project the best possible emotion, the optimism, the hope.” Experience this hope August 15-16 in Sunriver.
