Rimma has been Conducting in a number of places over the last few months including Poland, USA and Bulgaria. It was in January that she had the great pleasure of working with the Pleven Philharmonic in Northern Bulgaria. The programme included Beethoven – Leonore 3, Overture, Ravel – Piano Concerto in G (Vesko Stambolov on Piano) and Dvorak – Symphony No 8. Rimma received a very warm welcome and a lot of press coverage. No doubt she will be back!
When Rimma was asked by a reporter who was the composers she most liked she is quoted as saying 'Bach, Bach and and more Bach'
