Feng makes his debut with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra

Feng travels to Helsinki, Finland, next week to make his debut with the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra at the Helsinki Music Centre on 7 February.

Feng will perform Paganini Violin Concerto No.1, Op.6 under the baton of Mario Venzago in a programme titled “Incontri” that also includes works by Rossini, Nono and Martucci.

Receiving much critical acclaim, Feng recorded the Paganini Violin Concerto No.1, Op.6 as part of his album Virtuosismo which was released on Channel Classics last year.

***** Performance ***** Recording “Feng’s playing is so commanding throughout – the tricky first movement cadenza and third movement scherzo are almost impossibly silky-smooth – that one is left in absolutely no doubt who the real star of the show is. It sets the seal on arguably Feng’s finest release to date, captured in alluringly natural sound.”
