The internationally-renowned British cellist Steven Isserlis’s vast, award-winning repertoire includes Bach, Beethoven & Brahms. The soloist, chamber musician, author, educator, and broadcaster joins the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra to perform composer-in-residence Alexey Shor’s Cello Concerto No. 1 and Shostakovich’s Concerto No. 1. The performance will undoubtedly showcase his technical mastery and bring his emotive, lyrical and enchanting abilities to the fore as a musician who is equally comfortable playing contemporary works as he is in the arms of Baroque music.
