Ushering a new year means making lots of lists and a list of concerts to watch is no exception. January is packed with concerts and performances that are piano centric with four concertos lined up. But the month ends up with a banger with no other than global piano superstar Lang Lang making his long awaited return to the country after more than two decades. He last performed in Manila way back in 2002 with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of the great Lorin Maazel.
Here are the upcoming concerts to look out for this January 2026 that will most likely make a quick work of all the bonuses and cash presents received during the recent holiday season.
