The Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra is delighted to welcome Rainer Küchl for this recital at the Holywell Music Room. Professor Küchl was appointed Concertmaster of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in 1971 aged just 20 and remained at the heart of one of the most important orchestras in the world for nearly half a century. His appearance with the OPO is part of his 75th birthday celebrations and we look forward to working with such a distinguished artist, not only in presenting him in a recital but also in welcoming him as Guest Concertmaster in two of our concerts this season. Featuring a programme that spans from Vivaldi to Richard Strauss, this recital promises to showcase the violin’s emotional depth and remarkable versatility.
This concert is held in association with English Heritage Concerts.
