Mozart and Tchaikovsky

Part of the London Mozart Players 2021/22 Season

Add to my Calendar 26-03-2022 17:30 26-03-2022 19:30 36 Mozart and Tchaikovsky Music by – and inspired by – Mozart, as the London Mozart Players perform Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings and Mozart’s magnificent Sinfonia Concertante. Two’s company: Mozart was a viola player, and when he paired the viola with a solo violin, the result was a masterpiece like no other. Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante is like hearing Amadeus himself, joking, dancing and pouring out his very soul. The superb young British viola player Tim Ridout takes Mozart’s role tonight; he’s joined by violinist Jonian Ilias Kadesha, whose playing (according to one critic) has “an element of pure genius”. And then the London Mozart Players turn to a composer who revered Mozart like no other – the unchained melodies and soaring romance of Tchaikovsky’s lovely Serenade for Strings. Other prizes include the 2019 Thierry Scherz Award at the Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad and 1st Prize at the 2014 Cecil Aronowitz Competition. Born in London in 1995, Ridout studied at the Royal Academy of Music graduating with the Queen’s Commendation for Excellence. He completed his Masters at the Kronberg Academy with Nobuko Imai in 2019 and in 2018 took part in Kronberg Academy’s Chamber Music Connects the World. St Martin-in-the-Fields, London DD/MM/YYYY
