Vasily Petrenko was appointed Principal Conductor of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in September 2006; in September 2009 he became Chief Conductor. He is now the Orchestra’s longest serving conductor since Sir Charles Groves, who was principal conductor from 1963 – 1977. He has helped boost audience numbers for concerts by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and they are now 17% higher than when he first took up the baton. Petrenko received an Honorary Fellowship from LJMU in 2012 for his outstanding contribution to Liverpool and the arts. He has also received Honorary Doctorates from the University of Liverpool and Liverpool Hope University. His other awards include German Echo Klassik Awards 2012 Newcomer of the Year for the recording of Rachmaninov’s Symphony No. 3 with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra (EMI Classics), the Classic BRIT Awards Male Artist of the Year in 2012 and 2010 and the Classic FM/Gramophone Awards Young Artist of the Year 2007. He is also Principal Conductor of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, Chief Conductor of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra and Principal Guest Conductor of the Mikhailovsky Theatre in St Petersburg, his native city and where his professional career began in the mid-1990s. Petrenko has made guest appearances with major orchestras throughout Europe, the USA, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. He has toured with the European Union Youth Orchestra and made his BBC Proms debut with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in 2008, returning with Liverpool Philharmonic for the 2010 and 2012 Proms seasons.. As a Principal Partner of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, LJMU demonstrates a shared commitment to providing inspirational opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to get involved in learning, music and the arts. LJMU's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Nigel Weatherill commented: “We are delighted to offer students, staff and members of the public the opportunity to hear Vasily Petrenko talk about his experiences and therefore provide an insight into art and culture in Liverpool as part of our Roscoe Lecture Series. The partnership between Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic provides opportunities for LJMU students to hear concerts and participate in the Liverpool Philharmonic’s Learning Programme, which is acknowledged as a national leader in the field in its quality, research and impact.“ Vasily Petrenko said: “I am honoured to be invited to present one of LJMU’s Roscoe Lectures, which has welcomed so many people from all walks of life to speak about what matters to them in the world, in education and the arts and our responsibilities to be good citizens.” The Good Citizenship Award will be collected by Dylan Evans, a 16 year old cellist in West Everton Super Strings and Deputy Artistic Director Alex Dunn on behalf of everyone involved with In Harmony Liverpool. In Harmony is a national music education and social programme, modelled on Venezuela’s El Sistema. In Harmony Liverpool uses the unique power of music to transform the lives of children, families and the community of West Everton in Liverpool. The programme is led by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic and local partners and any child living in West Everton, including all children and staff at Faith Primary School, can learn an instrument free of charge. They then perform in the West Everton Children’s Orchestra, which was established in 2009, with some children engaged in music-making for up to 10 hours each week. In just five years, In Harmony Liverpool has had a significant impact on children’s musical achievement, educational attainment, school culture and the community of West Everton as a whole. In Harmony Liverpool now regularly perform to great acclaim at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall and also prestigious venues around the UK, including London’s Southbank Centre and the Royal Albert Hall as part of the BBC Proms. About the LJMU Roscoe Lecture Series The Roscoe Lecture Series is now firmly established as a platform, both locally and internationally, for open dialogue, reflecting the University’s civic role in championing education, global awareness and good citizenship. Speakers have ranged from statesmen, lawyers and religious and political leaders to championing education, global awareness and good citizenship. Speakers have ranged from statesmen, lawyers and religious and political leaders to astronomers, poets, scientists and survivors of the Holocaust, genocide and crimes against humanity. Rarely fewer than 800 people and sometimes more than 2,000 people attend each lecture, making the Series one of the largest spoken word events in the country. The Series is named after William Roscoe, a man central to the story of the city of Liverpool.

He entered the Petrograd Conservatory at age 13 and studied piano with Leonid Nikolayev and composition with Maximilian Steinberg. His graduation piece, the Symphony No. 1, gave him immediate fame and from there he went on to become the greatest composer during the Soviet Era of Russian history despite serious problems with the political and cultural authorities. He also concertized as a pianist and taught at the Moscow Conservatory. He was a prolific composer whose compositions covered almost all genres from operas, ballets and film scores to works for solo instruments and voice.

  • Culture and the Arts Bring Meaning to Our Lives
    Culture and the Arts bring meaning to our lives. Culture and the Arts make us the human beings we are and give structure and sense to the society we create; they provide us with real values and fulfil our mental and emotional existence. In the most difficult days of the history of humanity, alongside the most dramatic events, the most devastating wars and epidemics, the Arts, and perhaps especially music, enhanced the spirit. Music became a symbol of resilience, heroism and ultimately our belief in ourselves, from Josef Haydn’s ‘Mass in Time of War’ to Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony. We are at war now and we musicians are desperate to join in in the battle to help society, help people to improve their mental health, fire their spirit and give comfort during this most isolated, most lonely time in our modern history. But we can’t. We are prevented from performing in live spaces, prevented from reaching the eyes and ears and hearts of our public, prevented from sharing with them our love, our passion, our belief. It is becoming more and more apparent that orchestras, opera companies and other musical institutions in the UK, a truly world-leading country in all forms of culture, are in grave danger of being lost forever, if urgent action is not taken. Many of us have had great support through the Job Retention Scheme, and we are really grateful to the Government for that. But we need also to look to the coming months, and even years, and discuss what the impact of this closure, and of contained social distancing remaining, means for the performing arts.
