The Borusan Istanbul Philharmonic Orchestra appears on stage under the direction of conductor František Macek, with young pianist Salih Can Gevrek as soloist, in a distinctive programme that brings together classical and modern works. Pianist Gevrek, recognised for elegant technique and poetic interpretations, studied at the Ankara State Conservatory before continuing his education at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London with Prof. Joan Havill. He has achieved success in numerous national and international competitions and has performed at such prestigious venues as London’s Wigmore Hall and the Barbican Centre.

The contemporary strand of this programme is highlighted by Festival Overture by Nikolai Lopatnikoff, one of the lesser-known yet striking figures of the 20th century. Following this modernist work, woven with rhythmic vitality and vivid textures, the evening concludes with Alexey Shor’s “From My Bookshelf”, performed in the concert version arranged by the renowned pianist, conductor and composer Mikhail Pletnev.
