Yury Revich plays with FIRE(bird)
Yes! Yury Revich is back for two fabulous Firebird concerts in Oxford and London with concertos by Vivaldi and Bruch…
The internationally-celebrated and multi-prize-winning violin star Yury Revich returns to Firebird for the sixth and seventh times with two concerts displaying his virtuosic talents as part of Firebird’s 2025 programme of classical greats.
On Sunday 9 March in Oxford, Yury will perform Bruch’s celebrated first Violin Concerto – one of the best-loved violin concertos of all time – framed by a terrific overture by Mozart and one of the most beloved symphonies of all time by Beethoven, at a concert generously sponsored by the Morris-Venables Charitable Foundation.
Austrian violinist and composer Yury Revich won the ECHO Klassik Award, the International Classical Music Award, and his recording of Saint- Georges double concertos was listed on the US TOP 100 Billboard classical charts in 2021.
At 18, he had his Carnegie Hall début alongside Daniil Trifonov and later débuted with Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto in Milan. Since then he has performed at prestigious venues across Europe.
And on Tuesday 29 April in London, Yury will perform a virtuosic programme of violin delights with Firebird with Vivaldi’s timeless classic, The Four Seasons. This will be paired with Piazzolla’s tangos, the Four Seasons of Buenos Aires.
‘Full-blooded authority, fleet-fingered dexterity, innate musicality, and substantial accuracy…’ The Strad
Yury is also a successful composer with recent premieres with the Staatsphilharmonie Zagreb Soloists and the World Expo in Dubai in 2021. In 2023 his album of music by Chevalier St. Georges was included in the official soundtrack of Netflix series Bridgerton.
