Undoubtedly, one of the main characters of this evening is Vadim Repin. Fiery passion, impeccable technique, and musical poetry are the keywords that characterize Repin’s game.

Repin has had a dream career – he has performed with the London Symphony Orchestra and Valery Gergiev, the NHK Symphony Orchestra, and Charles Dutoit, the London PhilharMon,ic Orchestra, and Vladimir Jurowski.

James MacMillan’s Violin Concerto has been dedicated to and created for Repin, and the soloist has performed it in the halls most famous halls of the music world – in Philadelphia, Carnegie Hall in New York, Salle Pleyel in Paris, Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall in London. Repin has recorded a lot for reputable record companies; let’s mention the Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov Piano Trio recording, which was made in collaboration with cellist Mischa Maisky and pianist Lang Lang and which won the Echo Classic award.
