Simon Trpceski, the most renowned Macedonian pianist on the world stage, performs in Ohrid on August 13 at the Ancient Theatre - a day before his concert in Bitola at Heraclea. The double appearance is part of the summer concert series of one of the rare Macedonian musicians who perform with the most prestigious orchestras on the planet.

Trpceski regularly performs with the London Philharmonic, the Berlin Philharmonic, and the New York Philharmonic. His recordings for EMI Classics have won numerous awards, and critics describe him as a pianist with "technical brilliance and deep musicality."

The Ohrid Ancient Theatre under open skies is an ideal stage for classical music - the acoustics of the amphitheatre and the stars overhead create an unforgettable atmosphere. Tickets are 1,200 denars through kupikarta.com.
