Since 1961, Young Concert Artists (YCA) has been at the forefront of discovering and launching the careers of classical music’s future leaders, including many of today’s luminaries. Tonight’s recital features one of the roster’s newest musicians: pianist Kiron Atom Tellian. A YCA Jacobs Fellow, Tellian is one of two winners of the 2024 Young Concert Artists Susan Wadsworth International Auditions—a distinctive process that grades musicians against the highest standard of excellence, rather than one another. In his Carnegie Hall debut, Tellian performs works by Chopin, Robert Schumann, and Scriabin, including Scriabin’s Piano Sonata No. 2—a highlight of Tellian’s winning audition.
