Every year Conservatorium students have the opportunity to compete for a solo appearance with one of our orchestras, and in some years the large number of prizewinners enables us to present an extra concerto concert. This special event will have a particularly Russian theme, with concertos by Tchaikovsky and Stravinky, complemented by a most intriguing timpani concerto by long-time principal timpanist of the Berlin Philharmonic, Werner Tharichen. This is a wonderful showcase opportunity for our students in a dazzling evening of solo concertos.
