Violin recital by Midori with Özgür Aydin, piano Programme: Clara Schumann: Three Romances for Violin and Piano Poulenc: Violin Sonata, FP 119 Brahms: Violin Sonata No. 1 in G major, Op. 78 Ravel: Kaddish Ravel: Tzigane The launch of the Zubin Mehta Celebrity Concert presented by the Mehli Mehta Music Foundation will feature the “simply magical” (Houston Chronicle) violinist Midori—a visionary artiste, activist and educator. Midori’s career began at the age of 11, when Zubin Mehta invited her to perform with the New York Philharmonic, and she has since performed with several of the world’s most renowned musicians—including Leonard Bernstein and Yo-Yo Ma—and orchestras including the Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic and many more. Deeply committed to furthering humanitarian and educational goals, Midori has founded several non-profit organisations, and in recognition of her work, she serves as a United Nations Messenger of Peace and was awarded the Kennedy Center Honors in 2021. Pianist Özgür Aydin made his major concerto debut in 1997 with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. In the same year, he won the renowned ARD International Music Competition in Munich and the Nippon Music Award in Tokyo. He is also a laureate of the Cleveland International Piano Competition. A committed chamber musician, he enjoys an ongoing collaboration with Midori in performances and recordings. Age Limit: 6+ Late entry will not be permitted.
