SUMMARY:Jon Nakamatsu

Catapulted to worldwide recognition as the Gold Medalist of the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition — the only American to earn that distinction since 1981 — Nakamatsu has built an extraordinary career as a soloist\, chamber musician\, recording artist and educator. Praised for his electrifying performances and expressive depth\, he continues to captivate audiences across the globe. \n\n\n\nA frequent guest with more than 150 orchestras worldwide\, Nakamatsu has appeared with leading ensembles in Berlin\, Boston\, Los Angeles\, San Francisco\, Seattle\, Tokyo and beyond\, collaborating with many of the most respected conductors of our time.

Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts\, while his acclaimed recordings have earned widespread critical praise.

It opens with Bach’s timeless chorale preludes in Ferruccio Busoni’s celebrated piano transcriptions\, followed by Beethoven’s paired “Quasi una fantasia” sonatas\, including the beloved “Moonlight” Sonata. Contemporary works by Elena Ruehr and Vivian Fung — both written for Nakamatsu — offer a striking contrast\, highlighting his commitment to championing new music and collaborating with living composers. \n\n\n\nThe recital concludes with a trio of masterworks by Frédéric Chopin\, including the expansive Polonaise-Fantaisie\, the dramatic Fantasy in F Minor and the dazzling Andante spianato et grande polonaise brillante.

Under Wilder’s direction\, audiences will first be swept away by the devastating lyrical beauty and profound tragedy of Puccini’s cloistered tale of maternal love\, loss and redemption\, followed by the playful charm and dazzling orchestration of Ravel’s enchanted world\, where a mischievous child’s bedroom comes colorfully to life. \n\n\n\nSung in Italian and French with English surtitles \n\n\n\nDirected by Kit WilderConducted by Emanuele AndrizziMusical preparation by Maja TremiszewskaSet design by R.

Under Wilder’s direction\, audiences will first be swept away by the devastating lyrical beauty and profound tragedy of Puccini’s cloistered tale of maternal love\, loss and redemption\, followed by the playful charm and dazzling orchestration of Ravel’s enchanted world\, where a mischievous child’s bedroom comes colorfully to life. \n\n\n\nSung in Italian and French with English surtitles \n\n\n\nDirected by Kit WilderConducted by Emanuele AndrizziMusical preparation by Maja TremiszewskaSet design by R. Eric StoneLighting design by Andrew CarsonCostume design by Shelbi WilkinSound design by Peyton Foranoce \n\n\n\nSuggested Show Rating: PG-13 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\nPre-Show Lecture\n\n\n\nFriday\, April 23 at 6:30PMSunday\, April 25 at 1:30PM \n\n\n\nEnhance your experience by joining us for a pre-show lecture beginning one hour before each Main Stage Opera with Symphony Orchestra performance.
