Her very
successful debut was made conducting the enthusiastic
and well-regarded Harborne-based Queen's Park Sinfonia
in Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings, Haydn's Symphony
No.100 and Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto.
Christopher Morley
writes (11/6/05) after the event that "This
was the first full concert conducted by the expert
international violinist, and all her inside experience
from decades of performing and ensembles, plus her
intimate knowledge and love of the scores guaranteed a
level of preparation and rehearsal which is one of the
glories of British orchestral life"
"But all
this is nothing without stick-technique and Sushanskaya
has practiced hers to a peak of clarity and potential
expressiveness."
The
tremendously gifted soloist was the maestro's own son,
Leonid Sushansky, who was reported to have "a
full rich tone giving ample proof of a soloist at one
with his instrument".
Witts reported in the Stratford-upon-Avon Herald
(16/6/05) of their repeat performance in the Holy
Trinity Church, Stratford, that they "combined
their enormous kindred talents"
and that "it
was self-evident that she's taken to conducting like a
proverbial duck to water".
