The concert will feature two outstanding young Georgian musicians: pianist Salome Jordania and violinist Mariam Obolashvili.

The duo made its debut on February 27 this year in London under the auspices of the British-Georgian Society (BGS). Both musicians received their musical education in the United Kingdom. At the age of 14, Mariam was awarded a full scholarship to the Yehudi Menuhin School, where she studied for five years. Salome Jordania is currently studying at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

The debut performance was met with great acclaim. Renowned music critic Michael Church wrote:

“I attended a concert in the magnificent Beare showroom next to Wigmore Hall, where two exceptional young musicians displayed remarkable artistry. Remember these names: pianist Salome Jordania and violinist Mariam Obolashvili.

As a duo, they are simply stunning, while their solo performances are equally impressive.”
