In the splendid surroundings of Oxford Town Hall, Marios Papadopoulos leads a performance of the most adventurous and thrilling gallery visit of all time – Modest Mussorgsky’s musical depiction of a series of charmingly surreal pictures hanging in a St Petersburg exhibition in 1874, as dressed in spectacular orchestral clothing by master orchestrator Maurice Ravel. After the propulsive energy of Shostakovich’s Festive Overture, Nikita Mndoyants is the soloist in OPO Composer-in-Residence Alexey Shor's From My Bookshelf, whose depictions of literary icons from Quasimodo to D’Artagnan weaves spells of fantasy and romance.
