Piano virtuoso, recording artist, and 2006 Honens International Piano Competition winner Minsoo Sohn will set the stage ablaze in an all-Liszt recital, masterfully blending the nocturnal tenderness of the Consolations with the pyrotechnic fireworks of the Transcendental Études.
A true heir to Franz Liszt carries on composer’s legacy
Combining masterful virtuosity with artistic expression, Minsoo Sohn embodies the ideals of musical excellence in both his playing and his teaching. He studied at the New England Conservatory in Boston with Russell Sherman and Wha Kyung Byun, and has recently been appointed Professor of Piano at his alma mater. Sohn is a highly sought-after piano teacher, and among his students is the piano prodigy Yunchan Lim, the youngest performer to win the Van Cliburn Piano Competition at the age of 18.
Much like Sohn, Franz Liszt was a genius performer with a natural aptitude for the stage. A prolific thinker and composer, his six Consolations are imbued with the melancholy and fervent devotion of a collection of poems entitled Poetic and Religious Harmonies, while the 12 Transcendental Études exploit every known piano technique in a set of highly original and harmonically daring structures. Musical intelligence and breathtaking virtuosity were the hallmarks of Liszt’s performance style, and he has found in Sohn a perfect heir to carry on his shining legacy.
Merging intellectual rigour with superior technique, and profound musicality with appealing intimacy, Sohn will take us on a journey of beautifully articulated and radiantly sparkling interpretations in this all-Liszt recital.

We had a good time with family. The place is pretty well maintained and spacious. The terrain is hilly and can be steep for the older folks. The rides are all inclusive and no extra charges are required, eg cable car rides and express train. Food can be a tad expensive. Otherwise, it is a good place to spend the day.

I was a bit skeptical about taking the Peak Tram, however, I really enjoyed the ride. The scenery going up the hill is fascinating, and going on a Tuesday afternoon in June I did not find any queue or crowd. It was a sunny and clear day and the view from both the tram and the Sky Terrace was amazing. The fact that there are two shopping areas with restaurants makes the experience even more convenient, also to have a break from the outside heat. I think it is a must see for first timers in HK like me.

I came twice a week. I was very lucky. The sunny and cloudy days gathered together ～ In a word, the Hong Kong Taiping Peak Cable Car and the Lingxuan Pavilion Ferris Skytop, it is worth ～ One of the landmarks in Hong Kong can book tickets in advance, or you can brush Octopus ～ (small suggestion, if time permits, before climbing, Hong Kong Park, St. John&#39;s Cathedral can be visited) &quot;When the friction between the cable car and the rails rings, it is as if the chariots of the British Industrial Revolution have been roaring through Asia.&quot; It is a vehicle, and a moving history book, carrying the memories of the colonial era and the rebirth of the return. Characteristic 1 old, one of the earliest cable car cableways in Asia, from 1888 to the present, the Taiping Peak cable car is more than 130 years old. Characteristic 2 steep, said to be a slope of 4 to 27 degrees, half lying on the mountain climbing, the building and trees outside the window tilted into the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Fortunately, there are only 8 minutes one way ～ characteristics 3 wayward, you can park in the middle, slant in and out of ～ skyscraper 428, which means 428 meters above sea level. Overlooking Victoria Harbour is enough for ～ perspective is old ～ Hong Kong&#39;s highest 360-degree observation deck, overlooking Nanxun Island and Lantau Island. If the lights are on at night, The night view on both sides of Victoria Harbour is beautiful. The Pearl of the East is beautiful during the day and night. The sun outlines the skeleton of the city with light and shadow, and the neon writes the rhyme of Xiangjiang with the scorpion. Under the tempered glass of the skyscraper, you can still hear the breathing of the forest. The journey to Taiping Mountain is a climb in physical height, and a cross at the spiritual level. &quot;Cloud condensation fog lock Taiping Mountain, deep in the cliffs to return&quot; historical smoke cloud, the city is bustling ～ three-story miniature Hong Kong exhibition, interactive small firework show, stamp postcard punch card to get refrigerator sticker ～ interaction, to feel the love ～ I met the teacher twice and led the local children and pupils to study and study. OK. There are many meanings of travel, and the scenery is also. Your smiling faces have become part of the scenery. The wind-scratched hair on the skyscraper is accompanied by laughter in Victoria Harbour.
