Pietari Inkinen makes Utah Symphony debut

Pietari Inkinen makes his debut with the Utah Symphony in two concerts at Abravanel Hall on December 12 and 13, 2025. The program brings together three contrasting works, spanning more than a century of orchestral writing.

The evening opens with Subito con forza by Unsuk Chin, a compact and striking work that sets the tone with its sharp gestures and concentrated energy. Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 3 follows, featuring Shai Wosner as soloist. Known for his thoughtful and incisive musicianship, Wosner brings clarity and focus to one of Beethoven’s most dramatic concertos.

The program concludes with Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7, a work of dark intensity and symphonic drive, often regarded as one of the composer’s most concentrated symphonic statements. Together, the three works form a program that moves from contemporary urgency to Classical tension and late-Romantic breadth.

The concerts take place on Friday, December 12, and Saturday, December 13, both beginning at 7:30 pm.
