The Bells, a choral symphony by Sergei Rachmaninoff based on a Russian translation of Edgar Allan Poe's namesake 1913 poem, was the composer's favorite work along with his All-Night Vigil. For the first time, the work will be performed by China Philharmonic Orchestra in Beijing and conducted by Zhang Guoyong (pictured). The concert will also present Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet and Kabalevsky's Piano Concerto No 3. Eight-year-old piano prodigy Wang Yalun, the youngest prizewinner of the Bach Piano Competition held by UC-Berkeley University, will perform solo.
7:30 pm, March 2. Forbidden City Concert Hall, inside Zhongshan Park, West Chang'an Avenue, Xicheng district, Beijing. 010-6551-3348/3349.
