| Vien Ignacio |
Ignacio, who was introduced to the pedal harp when she was just three and a half years old, has since then been trained by Olga Shevelevich. She has won awards most notably First Place at the 2025 Scandinavian International Instrument Music Competition to go along with special diplomas for Best Performance of a Romantic Piece and the Child Prodigy awards. For her PPO debut, she will take on George Frideric Handel's Harp Concerto in B flat major, Op. 4 No. 6.
Other pieces to be performed include Redentor Romero's Philippine Portraits and Zygmunt Noskowski's Step (the Steppe), Op. 66.
