Music lovers in Palma de Mallorca will be able to enjoy performances by Bulgaria’s virtuoso violinist Vasko Vassilev and pianist Miquel Estelrich from Palma de Mallorca tonight, Majorca Daily Bulletin writes.

The programme includes works by Chopin, Paganini, Debussy, Saint-Saëns and Sarasate. The concert is at 9.30 PM at Monestir de la Real.

Vassilev, concertmaster of the Royal Opera House in London, has been recognised in several international competitions such as the Jacques Thibaud in Paris or the Paganini in Genoa and is considered one of the most outstanding violinists on the international scene, Majorca Daily Bulletin writes further. He has performed with some of the best orchestras in the world and has collaborated with artists such as Plácido Domingo, Sting, Ronnie Wood, Vanessa Mae, Paco Peña and Erasure.

In this very special gala he will be accompanied by the Mallorcan pianist Miquel Estelrich, professor at the Conservatori Superior de Música de les Illes Balears. Together they have collaborated on numerous projects, including the recording of an album with music by Chopin, and have performed in venues in Spain, Bulgaria and Japan, Majorca Daily Bulletin writes.
