National Symphony Orchestra: Mozart’s Requiem

Two great violinists combine to illuminate Mozart’s towering masterworks.

The internationally-acclaimed violinist Rimma Sushanskaya was the last pupil of David Oistrakh, with whom she studied at Moscow Conservatoire, and under whose tutelage she won many prestigious awards. Sushanskaya has embarked on a highly successful career in conducting and enjoys a close performing relationship with NSO. During a flourishing career as a soloist, Tasmin Little has performed in every continent of the globe, in most of the major concert halls with a wondrous array of international orchestras. Little makes her final appearance at St John’s Smith Square performing Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante with friend and concert partner, Philip Dukes, “Great Britain’s most outstanding solo viola player.” (The Times). The Locrian Singers are a 20 strong professional choir – Artistic Director, Jonathan Darbourne.
