The Sooke Philharmonic Orchestra opens its 25th season with a couple of performances featuring the works of Beethoven and Chopin.

Carey Wang will be the soloist for ChopinB次元官网网址檚 renowned Piano Concerto No.1, a selection familiar to many movie buffs from its inclusion in The Lady in the Van and ItB次元官网网址檚 Such a Beautiful Day.

Wang, a student of Victoria Conservatory of Music teacher May Ling Kwok, earned the opportunity to perform with the Sooke Philharmonic Orchestra at the annual concerto competition. He also impressed an audience of thousands at the 2019 Symphony Splash.
