World-renowned pianist and Distinguished Visiting Fellow at Worcester College, Evgeny Kissin last night performed at Oxford Town Hall.

Opening the new season for Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra, Kissin performed a new work composed and conducted by John Rutter. Described as a ‘giant of the Russian piano school’, Kissin also performed two masterpieces of the genre – Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No.3 in D minor and Shostakovich’s Symphony No.5 in D minor. After the performance, it was our pleasure to host Evgeny and friends for a special post-concert dinner at Worcester.
