London student wins Valencia piano competition
mainLuka Okros, 24, a Georgian student of Norma Fisher at the Royal College of Music, has come top in the Iturbi International Piano Competition (2015), in Valencia.
He wins 18,000 Euros and a host of concert engagements.
Second was an Italian, Viviana Lasaracina.
Was Iturbi the real discoverer of Ytterbium (a chemical element) ?
Have just got back from a concert in Honiton Church (part of our festival) There is no doubt Luka’s performance is the best we have ever had in Honiton. It was spine tingling and electrifying. We were so lucky to hear such talent.
We have just had the privilege of hearing Luka give a recital in Abergavenny. What a talent he is, and how lucky we are to have seen him so early in what promises to be a wonderful career!
