Kazakhstan-born Alim rose to international prominence after the Leeds International Piano Competition in 2021, during which his performance of Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody On A Theme Of Paganini - accompanied by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra - secured him first prize. 

Two years later, he won the hearts of Potteries audiences when he appeared in the Stoke-on-Trent Classics series, his masterful performance ensuring that any and all return visits to the region would be eagerly anticipated. 

This latest Stoke stop-off sees Alim performing works by Schubert (Moments Musicaux and Wanderer Fantasy) and Liszt (Sonata in B minor).
