Rimma Sushanskaya

**Rimma Sushanskaya** is a Russian-born British violinist celebrated for her expressive interpretations of classical and Romantic repertoire. Born in Moscow, she studied at the prestigious Moscow Conservatory under legendary violinist David Oistrakh, honing a technique marked by warmth and precision. A versatile performer, she co-founded the Chamber Orchestra of the USSR Ministry of Culture before relocating to the UK, where she became a respected soloist, chamber musician, and educator. Her recent releases—like her recordings of Beethoven’s symphonies, Shostakovich’s violin sonatas, and Brahms’ orchestral works—showcase her deep connection to dramatic, emotionally charged compositions. Beyond the stage, she’s passionate about music education, having taught at institutions like Birmingham Conservatoire, and co-founded ensembles like the Solomon Trio. Whether diving into Prokofiev’s sharp wit or Mozart’s elegance, Rimma brings a blend of fiery intensity and lyrical grace to every note.
