Performer: Anastasia Kobekina

The Year of Czech Music continues at the BBC Proms with a highly-shaped Dvořák Cello Concerto from Proms debutant Anastasia Kobekina and Suk’s monster of a symphony, Asrael.

Anastasia Kobekina and Cedric Tiberghien treat Wigmore Hall to a night of flair, flitting between their two homelands. 

La jeune musicienne russe a réservé au public de la Chapelle protestante un récital original et de haute tenue, associant aux suites de Bach des pièces modernes dans un jeu toujours convaincant.

With a focus on Shostakovich, and many prestigious guest orchestras from around Europe, this year’s BBC Proms confirms orchestral music can make a big public statement.

With so many talented young artists appearing in this season, editor Mark Pullinger selects ten we’re particularly excited to follow this year.
