Event Description

artsPlace is once again thrilled to partner with Calgary’s ChamberFest West to present phenomenal classical rising stars of the highest international standards from around the world. Roman Rabinovich returns to artsPlace after four triumphant recitals in the last two years to accompany phenomenal young English mezzo soprano Helen Charlston.

Winner of the London Handel Competition for 2018, Helen Charlston is a BBC New Generation Artist (2021-23), a laureate of Le Jardin des Voix academy with Les Arts Florissants in 2021-22, and recently won both a Gramophone Award for best Concept Album and BBC Music Magazine Vocal Award for her album ‘Battle Cry’. An avid recitalist, Helen has given solo recitals at Wigmore Hall, the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Leeds Lieder, Oxford Song and Cheltenham Festivals. She is an advocate for contemporary music, particularly that performed on period instruments and regularly commissions new composers.

About ROMAN RABINOVICH:
Praised by The New York Times for his “uncommon sensitivity and feeling,” pianist Roman Rabinovich is known for weaving intellect, curiosity, and spontaneity into performances that are as thought-provoking as they are emotionally resonant. Winner of the 2008 Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition, his subsequent career has led him to perform throughout Europe and the USA in venues such as including Gewandhaus, Carnegie Hall, Kennedy Center, Cité de la Musique and Wigmore Hall, where he gave three solo recitals in the 2024–25 season. Admired for his inventive and thematic solo recital programs, he brings a curatorial imagination to the stage that deepens and enriches the concert experience.
Rabinovich has appeared with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Seattle Symphony, Sarasota Orchestra, Buffalo Philharmonic, as well as Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and Orchestre de Chambre de Paris, collaborating with conductors such as Zubin Mehta, Sir Roger Norrington, JoAnn Falletta, Gerard Schwarz, Ludovic Morlot, and Joseph Swensen.

Helen Charlston was recently a BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist (2021-23), and finalist of the 2021 Kathleen Ferrier Awards for which she was a recipient of the Ferrier Loveday Song Prize. In 2023 she won a Gramophone Award for Best Concept Album, and collected the Vocal award at the BBC Music Magazine Awards, both for her second Delphian album Battle Cry: the only recording that year to win at both ceremonies.

About HELEN CHARLSTON
This season, Helen makes her debut at the Gran Teatre del Liceu as Sesto in Calixto Bieito’s production of Giulio Cesare conducted by William Christie, and sings Handel’s Messiah at BBC Proms with The Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius at Windsort Festival, Bach’s St John Passion with the Academy of Ancient Music, Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with WDR Köln under Simon Halsey, and also with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra under Václav Luks, and Bach’s Magnificat with RIAS Kammerchor under Justin Doyle in South Korea. In recital she performs Battle Cry with Toby Carr at Brucknerhaus Linz, with Sholto Kynoch at the Oxford International Song Festival and LIFE Victoria Barcelona, a programme of Handel with the Prague Philharmonia at Lobkowicz Palace, and she returns to Wigmore Hall with London Handel Players, Dunedin Consort, Florilegium and Toby Carr.
