It feels like no time has passed since Frank Peter Zimmermann and I first met and played together those many years (30+!) ago. What a special evening on Thursday in HK to join with him and the @hkphilharmonic for Elgar’s Violin Concerto.

[Long Yu @MaestroLongYu]

Performed Elgar w/ Frank Peter Zimmermann and China Phil yesterday—an unforgettable concert. Nearly 30 years ago, he and I first played this concerto together as young men in Germany. Yesterday, we brought it back to life in China. What a journey it’s been.

[Long Yu @MaestroLongYu]

After Émigré performances in Shanghai, New York and Berlin - we added Hong Kong to the list with a wonderfully successful performance with @hkphilharmonic, HK Phil Chorus, Lanzhou Concert Hall Choir and incredible cast. #émigré #aaronzigman

I’m incredibly proud of these young artists who not only possess exceptional artistic talent but also a genuine passion for classical music. They are the future. These days filled me with great joy & pride. I look forward to the @ShanghaiSO season opening next week!

[Long Yu @MaestroLongYu]

Over the past 3 days, I have had the privilege of collaborating with 5 young pianists for the opening of the new season of the China Philharmonic Orchestra. First time in the 23-year history of the orchestra that we have opened the season with a series of concerts.
