Piano Concerto No. 3

Commissioned by China National Centre for The Performing Arts, San Francisco Symphony, Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonie de Paris – Orchestre de Paris, NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester, and the New York Philharmonic, this work was composed in 2022 and first performed that year at Davies Symphony Hall, San Francisco, CA, by Yuja Wang (piano) and the San Francisco Symphony, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. The Wall Street Journal commented, “Mr Lindberg’s work, in three distinct movements, teases music lovers with homages to Ravel and Debussy, Prokofiev and Rachmaninoff, Liszt and, in the finale, Gershwin. But in doing so, the composer achieves that rarest of admixtures, a work that recalls the greatness of others while creating a sound world entirely his own.”
