Performers

Marios Papadopoulos	Piano, Conductor
Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra

Oxford Philomusica’s Founder and Music Director, Marios Papadopoulos, makes a welcome return to the keyboard to perform Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 20 – a work dramatic and delicate in turn, with a gloriously romantic second movement. The programme continues with Bruckner’s Fourth Symphony, which the composer himself christened ‘Romantic’. It was his first great success, and has endured as one of the most popular of all symphonies. This rich and majestic work will give full reign to the orchestra’s talent and guarantees to enthral the audience.

Bruckner and Mozart from the Oxford Philomusica

Katy Wright, 25th February

The level of anticipation for Saturday’s Oxford Philomusica concert was high, although not necessarily for the reasons you might expect: several minutes passed after tuning before the concertmaster emerged from the wings of Oxford’s Sheldonian Theatre. Although the Sheldonian may be somewhat lacking acoustically, the building’s grandeur more than makes up for it.
