Andrew Grams is one of America's most promising and talented young conductors, who has appeared with many internationally acclaimed orchestras, including the Cleveland Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony, the Detroit Symphony and the Washington D.C. National Symphony Orchestra.
The 2010/2011 season witnessed a major debut for Grams with the BBC Symphony Orchestra in London alongside debut appearances with the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic and the Orchestra of the Beethovenhalle Bonn. On the international arena, he conducted the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal, the Melbourne Symphony, the Orchestra of Santa Cecilia Rome and the Residentie Orchestra of the Hague, to name a few.
Despite being so young, he will showcase his immense experience to the Zagreb audience this Friday.
The Russian virtuoso Andrei Gavrilov made his London debut in 1976 with Paavo Berglund and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra in the Royal Festival Hall. In 1978 he performed with the Berlin Philharmonic in a major European concert tour of 30 concerts. By 1980 he had performed in all major cultural centres in the world.
After the exceptional career that propelled him to stardom, he completely abandoned the vocation of a pianist in the mid-1990s, only to return triumphantly to the international music scene in the beginning of the new millennium. His Zagreb appearance, where he will play Concerto No 2 by Camille Saint-Saëns, will prove without a doubt that he is now stronger than ever. The same programme was successfully staged in Belgrade in November 2011.
That said, all we have left to do now is to invite you to join us for this romantic music event.
