Russian pianist Dmitri Alexeev is one of the world’s most highly regarded artists.  His critically praised recitals on the world’s leading concert stages and his concert appearances with the most prestigious orchestras have secured his position as one of “the most remarkable pianists of the day”  Daily Telegraph

This series of concerts curated by Dmitri Alexeev is dedicated to the memory of his former teacher, distinguished Russian pianist, professor and pedagogue, Dmitri Bashkirov. The first three concerts will be held at St. John’s Smith Square and final concert at The Royal College of Music. 

“This great poet of the piano” Hilary Finch, The Times

In the first of the concerts in this festival in memory of Dmitri Bashkirov, performers are former students of Dmitri Alexeev at the Royal College of Music, now established artists in their own right.
