The Moscow Virtuosi and Vladimir Spivakov – 35th Anniversary Tour!
and 10 Years Celebration of Show One Productions!
“First-class string performers brought to perfection by Maestro Spivakov.” – The New York Times
For 35 years, the Moscow Virtuosi Chamber Orchestra and its maestro, Vladimir Spivakov, one of the world’s most prominent conductors and violinists, have set the gold standard for chamber music performance. The Washington Post has hailed the Virtuosi as “a dramatically unified ensemble” with “a sound that would put many full orchestras to shame”.
The ensemble – top-ranking soloists from the great orchestras of Russia – has garnered superlatives through both live performances around the world and more than 30 recordings on BMG/RCA Victor Red Seal of standard repertoire, lesser known gems and new creations.
Maestro Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi come to Vancouver and Toronto as part of the world tour celebrating their 35th anniversary. Music lovers here have always welcomed them with the greatest enthusiasm, filling up every seat in the house.
In Toronto – celebration continues with the post-concert lobby performance and recpetion celebrating ten years of Show One Productions and featuring Canadian – Italian Daniela Nardi’s jazz world music project Espresso Manifesto.
