Marios Papadopoulos conductor
World class cellist Mischa Maisky makes his debut with the Oxford Philharmonic alongside our Music Director & Founder Marios Papadopoulos for an evening of captivating Romantic works. Mendelssohn’s Hebrides Overture sets an atmospheric tone, followed by Tchaikovsky’s Nocturne for Cello and Orchestra, where Maisky’s emotive playing brings the lyrical beauty to the forefront. Bruch’s Kol Nidrei showcases the cello’s rich, mournful voice, before Respighi’s Adagio con variazione offers a moment of reflective tranquillity. The concert culminates with Beethoven Symphony No.5, an iconic work that needs no introduction.
