St. Petersburg Philharmonic at the Kennedy Center Concert Hall

St. Petersburg Philharmonic at the Kennedy Center Concert Hall on Mon, Feb 27 at 8pm.

Conducted by one of the best conductors in the world Yuri Temirkanov, and accompanied by an impressive soloistpianist, Nikolai Lugansky.

The St. Petersburg Philharmonic will surely thrill the audience as they perform Rachimaninoff’s 2nd Concerto and Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5.

Former Baltimore Symphony Orchestra music director Yuri Temirkanov returns with his St. Petersburg Philharmonic, which Washington Performing Arts has presented since its pre-Perestroika days as the Leningrad Philharmonic. “The orchestra is a Russian national treasure,” said the Washington Post, and “conductor Yuri Temirkanov one of the best in the world.” The ensemble, known for its performances of the Russian masters, is joined by noted interpreter Nikolai Lugansky, about whom the Guardian wrote, “Rachmaninoff just doesn’t get any better than this.”
