Biography

Russian pianist Victor Maslov has been praised as “one of those people who is close to all-round mastery of his repertoire” by the New York Concert Review, following his performance at New York’s Weill Recital Hall.  That repertoire, not surprisingly, encompasses much of the work of the great Russian composers of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, two of whom are represented in Victor's programme alongside music from a less well-known contemporary Ukrainian composer.

Beginning his studies at the Gnessin Moscow Special School of Music, Victor graduated from London’s Royal College of Music in 2021, at which time he was announced as the recipient of the Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother Rose Bowl for his achievements at the RCM.  He has already amassed armfuls of international prizes and awards in the years since.

Victor’s appearance in Stansted is funded by the generosity of the Countess of Munster Musical Trust Recital Scheme.
