Performer: Maxim Vengerov

Vengerov joined by violinist Rafter and oboist Manning dish up three delightful concerti by Bach in the first half, while in the second half, Vengerov conducts a thoroughly convincing account of Dvořák’s Symphony no. 9

Ilya Gringolts and Maxim Vengerov gave world-class performances of landmark pieces by Bach and Bartók, with a generous sprinkling of Prokofiev and Wieniawski giving extra sparkle.

Maxim Vengerov and Polina Osetinskaya’s marathon of Brahms sonatas showed off the composer at his most lyrical and dramatic.
