The Emperor of the Violin, Ray Chen! His very name inspires the hearts of classical music fans around the world, and in January 2026, he begins the New Year on stage in the United States.

The centerpiece of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’s US Tour is none other than Ray Chen. From his fingertips, Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto bursts forth with fiery virtuosity and soul-stirring emotion, overwhelming every listener. Under the baton of maestro Vasily Petrenko, the grandeur of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra merges seamlessly with Ray Chen’s dazzling artistry to create the pinnacle of musical experience.

This is not just a concert. It is the dream collaboration of a world-class orchestra and a violin virtuoso. It is an overwhelming thrill that can only be felt in this moment, on this stage. It is a radiant event destined to be remembered in music history.
