Violinist Vladimir Spivakov
Master violinist Vladimir Spivakov formed the Moscow Virtuosi chamber orchestra nearly 30 years ago, back in the depths of the Cold War. But it wasn’t long before the ensemble—made up of some of Russia’s top soloists and concertmasters—was touring the world, establishing a reputation as one of the best of its kind anywhere. The Moscow Virtuosi stops in Vancouver next Thursday (May 8) for an 8 p.m. performance at the Chan Centre that will include works by Vivaldi and Rossini—and, of course, Tchaikovsky’s Serenade in C Major for String Orchestra. Go to www.chancentre.ca/ for complete details.
