Niklolai Lugansky tours Europe with the Russian National Orchestra under the baton of Mikhail Pletnev, with whom he works regularly. The tour begins in Paris with Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini at Philharmonie de Paris (28 November), and then in Switzerland he performs Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No.3 at Kultur und Kongresszentrum in Lucerne (30 November) and Victoria Hall in Geneva (2 December). 

Later on this season, Lugansky tours with both London Symphony Orchestra and Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and Sakari Oramo. He returns to Paris in January 2018 for a recital at Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.
