Britain's What's On Event Guide
Milena Simovic & George Fu
Kicking off the new season of Music in Pinner concerts, Milena Simovic (viola) and George Fu (piano) perform Hindemith's Sonata for viola and piano, Op.11 No.4 and Prokofiev's Romeo & Juliet Op.64, followed by Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata D. 821 and the Rhapsody in G minor written by York Bowen in 1955.
Milena Simovic was born in Belgrade. Presented as a musician with innate musicality by critics in Great Britain, and equally at home as violinist and violist, Milena enjoys a versatile career as a soloist and chamber musician throughout Europe, North and South America. Milena is also a regular member jury for professional and masters studies at the Royal Academy in London. As a soloist and passionate chamber musician, Milena performed in famous halls around the world, Wigmore Hall, Barbican Centre, Royal Albert Hall, Purcell Room in London, Konzerthaus in Berlin, Elbphilharmonie Hall in Hamburg, Alte Oper in Frankfurt and the Opera House in Tel Aviv.
American pianist George Xiaoyuan Fu is “one of the most exciting pianists of our time… a deep thinker, thoroughly in command” (The Arts Desk). The winner of BBC Music Magazine’s 2024 Newcomer Award, he is garnering international acclaim as a fearless and probing interpreter of a wide array of music. He appears regularly at festivals worldwide such as the Aldeburgh, Ryedale, Presteigne, Tanglewood, Smetanova Litomyšl, and the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festivals. His performances and interviews have been featured on broadcasts around the world, ranging from BBC Radio 3 and National Public Radio, to appearances on PBS/American Public Television and On Stage At Curtis in Philadelphia.
