On January 24, 2018, the brilliant conductor and violist Yuri Bashmet celebrates a double anniversary - his 65th birthday and 50 years of creative activity. He performs almost the entire repertoire that he wrote for the viola and proved the unique capabilities of this instrument.
Yuri Bashmet was the first Russian violinist to give concerts at Carnegie Hall, La Scala, London Barbican, Berlin Philharmonic and other world famous concert venues. He was the first violist to be given the honor of playing an instrument owned by Mozart in Salzburg.
Yuri Bashmet directs the Moscow Soloists chamber ensemble and the New Russia State Symphony Orchestra, and is the founder of the International Viola Competition in Moscow. In addition, he is a talented teacher and public figure.
And about the personal life of Yuri and Natalia Bashmet, one could say so - four weddings and life on the notes of love.
