DSAC Art Selection, Lee Hyuk & Lee Hyo Duo Recital [Daegu]

[PERFORMANCE INTRODUCTION] Perfect Harmony Created by Pianist Brothers The Most Anticipated Duo Performance of the 2026 Season Brothers Lee Hyuk and Lee Hyo, who garnered worldwide attention after both advancing to the semifinal of the 2025 International Chopin Piano Competition, take the stage at Dalseo Art Center. The two performers, who have already proven their exceptional abilities as soloists, will showcase the most three-dimensional and densely layered sound that two pianos can produce, based on the intimate rapport unique to brothers. This program spans Chopin, Gershwin, Arthur Benjamin, and Rachmaninoff, organically weaving together classical lyricism, contemporary rhythm, and explosive energy. In their solo performances, Chopin's "Fantasia in B-flat minor" (performed by Lee Hyuk) and "Scherzo No. 4 in E major" (performed by Lee Hyo) reveal each performer's distinct musical individuality and interpretive depth. The duo performances that follow—featuring Gershwin's "Fantasia on themes from Porgy and Bess for Two Pianos" (arranged by Grainger), Arthur Benjamin's "Six Caribbean Pieces for Two Pianos," and Rachmaninoff's "Symphonic Dances"—unleash the performers' intimate unity and intense musical cohesion in full force. As the closest colleagues who have continuously engaged with each other's musical colors and abilities, the brothers' special synergy will be the highlight of this recital and the essential point of appreciation.
