Welcome to the Virtuoso Violin Festival 2012

August 7, 2012 |

Author RuthGarner

The 11th Virtuoso Violin Festival got off to a good start on Sunday evening with the ‘Rimma Sushanskaya and Friends‘ concert in Stratford-upon-Avon. This exciting concert show-cased some of the International participants, the Enigma String Quartet and, of course, Rimma Sushanskaya herself. The audience enjoyed pieces by Bach, Prokofiev and Vaughan Williams and during the interval it was a good opportunity to meet up with old and new friends from across the world.

We would like to take this opportunity to welcome course leaders and delegates back to Stratford-upon-Avon. We are sure you will have both a fruitful and enjoyable experience during your stay. Please do join us for student recitals on Saturday the 11th August at 7.30 p.m. This free concert will be held at the Levi Fox Hall, King Edwards School, Stratford-upon-Avon.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Author RuthGarner

Violin festival set to take music-lovers by storm (Stratford Herald)

“The programme will begin on Sunday 5th August with a concert at King Edward VI School, featuring the festival’s artistic director Rimma Sushanskaya, who hails from Stratford, in a performance of Bach’s well-loved Concerto for Two Violins in D minor. Ms Sushanskaya will be playing with Francois Pineau-Benois, a young talent from France, and accompanied by the Enigma String Quartet.”

“This opening concert will also provide a rare opportunity to enjoy Bach’s seldom heard Concerto for Three Violins performed by Wonhae Bae, Joo Yeon Sir and Julia Liang, all currently studying with Professor Felix Andrievsky at the Royal College of Music, in London.”

“The Enigma String Quartet will be joined by Junghee Keum for the beautiful and evocative Phantasy Quintet by Vaughan Williams and exciting virtuosos Wonhae Bae and Joo Yeon Sir, both from Korea, will complete the programme with Prokofiev’s Sonata for Two Violins. Admission to the event is free.”
