George Ko in Concert – A sonic cinematic piano experience
Thursday 18th April 2024, 7.30pm
Middleton Hall, University of Hull
Hull Chamber Music in collaboration with Hull Jazz Festival is thrilled to present: GKO – LIVE at Middleton Hall.
Piano pioneer and Neo-impressionist GKO debuts at Middleton Hall to perform a provocative exhibition of unconventional and virtuosic originals and film music. Using classical virtuosity, improvisation and styles across genres, GKO creates cinematic and kaleidoscopic compositions.
Critics describe his music and performance as “performing wizardry, flowing yet bright, lively and heroic… with moments of nostalgia, reverie, and reflection“.
Steinway says: “He’s great for music… making classical music exciting and accessible for the masses.”
The LA-based artist is a Young Steinway Artist and recipient of the Harvard David McCord Prize for exceptional musical talent and creativity.
Tickets: £14 / £5 (Students and universal credit).
