Denis Kozhukhin joins the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra for the closing concerts of their 2015/16 season from 12 May 2016. Kozhukhin first performs Brahms Piano Concerto No.1, conducted by Thomas Dausgaard, at Glasgow City Halls and Edinburgh Usher Hall on 12 and 15 May, with the former concert being broadcast live on BBC Radio 3. He then rejoins the orchestra at Glasgow City Halls on 19 May to perform Brahms Piano Concerto No.2 in Donald Runnicles’ final concert as Chief Conductor of the orchestra.

Later in the month Kozhukhin returns to London for a recital with the Pavel Haas Quartet at Wigmore Hall.
