Vasily Petrenko, Music Director

An ensemble “that produces a sense of marvel and wonder in the mind and heart” (New York Classical Review), the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra triumphs at the forefront of international orchestras under music director Vasily Petrenko. The stirring power of the ensemble will be on full display in performances of Shostakovich’s deeply personal and heroic 10th Symphony as well as Berlioz’s Béatrice et Bénédict Overture. The musicians’ talents take center stage as they perform Beethoven’s First Piano Concerto. Critics have praised Boris Giltburg's "singing line, variety of touch and broad dynamic palette capable of great surges of energy" (Washington Post) as well as his impassioned, narrative-driven approach to performance. Experience the rare thrill of hearing a world-class international orchestra at the peak of its artistry.

  • Hector Berlioz: Béatrice et Bénédict Overture
