Marios Papadopoulos conductor
Hailed as a successor to Kissin and Sokolov, Dmitry Ishkhanov comes to the Oxford Piano Festival bringing with him the Russian repertoire with which he is rapidly making his name around the world. Taking on the firepower and character of the symphony orchestra in Rachmaninov’s fiendish Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, he is sure to set out his stall in style. Marios Papadopoulos and the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra complete the programme with sparkling Rossini and Tchaikovsky’s most heart-on-sleeve symphony.
