As what is expected to be the biggest snow storm of this winter bears down on Toronto, The Royal Conservatory announces a special "Snow Day Sale" for two concerts this week - Vilde Frang & Michail Lifits on Wednesday, March 2, and Karen Gomyo, Christian Poltéra, & Juho Pohjonen on Friday, March 4.

Special $10 tickets will be available until 6 pm on Thursday, March 3, 2016, online, by phone, and in-person (no special code required) starting immediately. Not valid with any other discounts or promotions and not valid for previously purchased tickets.

Koerner Hall is proud to introduce Norwegian violinist Vilde Frang, "clearly a new star in the violin firmament." (The Guardian) Noted particularly for her superb musical expression as well as her well-developed virtuosity, Frang has been in demand since her debut with the Oslo Philharmonic at age 12. Uzbekistan-born Michail Lifits, praised for his inspirational tone and his wise maturity as well as for the breathtaking beauty of his playing, has increasingly captured public attention since his debut at the age of 13. On March 2, the duo performs Fauré's Violin Sonata No. 1, Lutos?awski's Partita, and Strauss's Violin Sonata in E-flat Major.

Trio of spectacular new-generation classical artists, Karen Gomyo, Christian Poltéra & Juho Pohjonen appear at Koerner Hall on March 4. Canadian violinist Gomyo, who has been hailed by the Chicago Tribune as "[a] first-rate artist of real musical command, vitality, brilliance and intensity;" Swiss cellist Poltéra, whose playing The Strad describes as "perceptive and expressive;" and one of the brightest young instrumental talents to emerge from Finland today, Pohjonen, who has "dazzling keyboard technique and, even more impressively, a broad and varied textural palette that allows him to shade his performances with great subtlety," (San Francisco Chronicle) perform Haydn's Piano Trio in E Major, Janá?ek's Pohádka (Fairy Tale) and Violin Sonata, and Dvo?ák's Piano Trio in F Minor.
