Cho is a South Korean classical pianist who rose to international prominence after winning the First Prize at the 2015 International Chopin Piano Competition. His playing is often described as possessing a remarkable clarity and poetic sensibility, characterized by refined technique and a nuanced approach to phrasing and dynamics. He frequently performs works from the Romantic period, particularly those of Chopin, but his repertoire extends to include composers such as Debussy, Rachmaninoff, and Beethoven.

The Barbican Centre is a renowned arts and conference venue located in the City of London. Opened in 1982, it forms part of the Barbican Estate, a modernist housing complex built on a bomb-damaged area of the city during World War II. The Centre houses a concert hall celebrated for its acoustics, a theatre, several art galleries, a film screen, and a library. It is managed by the City of London Corporation and hosts a diverse range of artistic events throughout the year, encompassing music, drama, visual arts and dance. The Barbican’s concert hall is known for its seating arrangement which places audience members relatively close to the stage.
