Cho Seong-jin, winner of this year's International
Chopin Piano Competition, will release his debut album with the London
Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Italian conductor Gianandrea
Noseda, Deutsche Grammophon announced, Monday. He had initially planned
to make his debut studio recording with conductor Chung Myung-whun,
former music director of the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra (SPO).
Cho
was scheduled to start recording Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 and
Chopin's four Ballades in April under the baton of maestro Chung and the
Staatskapelle Dresden Orchestra where Chung has been principal guest
conductor since the 2012-13 season.
Chung reportedly canceled the recording because of personal reasons.
Also
Chung will no longer conduct Cho's Chopin performance with the SPO at
Seoul Arts Center, July 15. He will be replaced by French conductor Yan
Pascal Torteller.
The pianist will be performing
the award-winning Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 that shot him to fame
last October by making him the first Korean to win the International
Fryderyk Chopin Piano Competition. (Park Jin-hai)
