Vinay Parameswaran makes his UK debut with the Philharmonia
Recognised as one of the most exciting and versatile young American conductors on the podium today, Vinay Parameswaran is delighted to make his UK debut this week with the Philharmonia Orchestra. The performance on Wednesday 9 October at Bedford Corn Exchange features fellow JBM artist Juho Pohjonen as soloist for Grieg’s Piano Concerto in A minor, between a programme of Nielson’s Helios Overture and Sibelius’ Symphony No. 5. Pohjonen returns to the UK in May 2025 for a piano trio programme with Stephen Waarts and Jonathan Swensen at Wigmore Hall.
Later in October, Parameswaran makes his debut with the London Philharmonic Orchestra at the Congress Theatre, Eastbourne (27 October) with a programme of Sibelius Finlandia, Dvorak Cello Concerto in B Minor (with soloist Sterling Elliott) and Beethoven Symphony No. 7. He will then make further debuts with the BBC Philharmonic (9-13 November) and BBC Symphony Orchestras (4 February) with performances in the Lake District’s Aerial Festival and studio concerts in both Media City, Salford and Maida Vale Studios, London. In addition to his UK dates, this season will see Parameswaran make his debut with the Chicago Sinfonietta (21 & 22 November) and the Seattle Symphony (3 May).
This evening (8 October, c.18:30), Parameswaran features on BBC Radio 3’s ‘In Tune’ to discuss his forthcoming debut with the Philharmonia and share details of his upcoming UK performances. Listen to the programme live or catch up on BBC Sounds
