Campus Concert: Georgia

Mirian Khukhunaishvili, conductor of the Tbilisi Youth Orchestra, is presenting an intercultural concert evening following rehearsals in Tbilisi and Bonn. The programme brings together Beethoven with the leading figures of 20th- and 21st-century Georgian musical history, right up to the country’s contemporary, Western-oriented avant-garde.
