This exciting young pianist makes a welcome return after dazzling VRS audiences in his previous appearances. His electrifying pianism, with its range of great delicacy and thundering power, makes the “Abduraimov experience” impossible to describe in words. If you heard him bring the house down at the Chan Centre with Balakirev’s ‘Islamey’, you’ll be at the front of the line for tickets to this concert!
