Piano Concerto Commission: Pursuit of Happiness
Christopher has been commissioned by pianist Lara Downes to compose a piano concerto for performance during the sesquicentennial of the United States in 2026. It's part of a trio of commissioned works by prominent American composers, as part of her 'Declaration' project, and will subsequently be recorded and released. A to-be-announced consortium of world-leading orchestras will be giving performances globally starting with an American premiere in 2026.
