About the Artist
The Moscow Soloists One of the world’s most highly acclaimed chamber ensembles, the Moscow Soloists were founded by Yuri Bashmet in March 1992.
Comprised of leading young graduates all under 30 from the Moscow Conservatory, the orchestra made its debut in May 1992, and two days later made a highly successful Paris debut at the Salle Pleyel.
Since that time, the Moscow Soloists have performed in many other prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall in New York, the Royal Albert Hall and the Barbican Centre in London, the Theatre des Champs Elysees in Paris, the Philharmonie in Berlin, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, and Suntory Hall in Tokyo.
Additionally, tours have taken the orchestra to the USA, Puerto Rico, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Israel, Greece and Turkey. Its festival appearances have included concerts at the BBC Proms, the Evian Festival, the Montreux Music Festival, the Sydney Festival and the annual December Nights Festival in Moscow. In 2006 the Soloists will play worldwide, often with repertoire from this new CD.
The Moscow Soloists have worked with such celebrated soloists as Sviatoslav Richter, Gidon Kremer, Mstislav Rostropovich, Maxim Vengerov, Barbara Hendricks, Lynn Harrell and James Galway.
Its recordings include the Schnittke Triple Concerto with Kremer, Rostropovich and Bashmet himself (EMI) and works by Brahms and Shostakovich (Sony, nominated for a Grammy award in 1998).
