Piano
A pianist appearing with the Youngstown Symphony in a program spanning Schumann to Glass.
In short
Jenny Lin is a pianist scheduled to perform as soloist with the Youngstown Symphony Orchestra in March 2027, on a program titled "Paths Untaken" that also includes works by Gabriela Lena Frank, Philip Glass, and Robert Schumann. Beyond this listing, we do not have confirmed biographical details to share about her.
What to listen for
The program billed as "Paths Untaken" pairs Robert Schumann's Symphony No. 3, nicknamed the "Rhenish" for its evocation of the Rhine river, with his rarely heard concert scenes from Goethe's Faust, a work that sets dramatic, searching text to music. Alongside these sit Gabriela Lena Frank's "Elegía andina," a short orchestral piece drawing on Andean folk melody and color, and Philip Glass's Violin Concerto No. 2, built from his signature repeating, slowly shifting patterns. Listeners can expect the piano soloist's contribution to sit within this wider frame of contrast, between Romantic-era orchestral writing and more recent, minimalist and folk-inflected idioms. Exactly which work features the piano is not specified in the program listing itself.
