The renowned Royal Philharmonic Orchestra returns with soloist Isata Kanneh-Mason, who made her Kansas City recital debut in 2022 with the Series.
As a respected cultural ambassador, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra enjoys a busy schedule of international touring, performing in the world’s great concert halls and prestigious international festivals. They are recognized as being the UK’s most in-demand orchestra and count passion, versatility and uncompromising artistic standards as hallmarks and are celebrated as one the world’s most open-minded, forward-thinking and accessible symphony orchestras.
In great demand internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, Kanneh-Mason was an ECHO Rising Star in 21/22, performing in many of Europe’s finest halls and is also the recipient of the coveted Leonard Bernstein Award and an Opus Klassik award for best young artist. Her debut album on Decca Classics, “Romance – the Piano Music of Clara Schumann,” drew popular and critical acclaim, entering the UK classical charts at No. 1.
Kanneh-Mason plays Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 3 and the orchestra closes the program with Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2.
