About this Event
Join us for an intimate evening celebrating the rich, romantic legacy of Russian composer Nikolai Medtner on the 75th anniversary of his passing. Set within the exquisite baroque acoustic of St Mary le Strand, this special concert brings together three acclaimed artists—pianist Thomas Ang, violinist Anna Ovsyanikova, and soprano Christine Buras—for an evocative journey through Medtner’s chamber and vocal works.
Often described as one of the last great Russian Romantics and a close contemporary of Rachmaninoff, Medtner crafted music of profound lyricism, intricate counterpoint, and emotional intensity. From haunting vocal romances and soaring violin melodies to virtuosic pianism, this commemorative programme offers an unforgettable tribute to one of classical music’s most deeply expressive yet undiscovered masters.
