Southland Symphony Presents "Romance with Ruslan"
The Southland Symphony, under the direction of Dr. Sylvia Lee Mann, is proud to present internationally acclaimed cellist Ruslan Biryukov, performing the West Coast Premiere of the Cello Concert in G minor, by Arthur Foote. The concert also includes the exquisite Symphony No. 5 of Franz Schubert, and is presented at Historic Bethel Congregational Church in Ontario California.. Join us for this FANTASTIC concert!
Mr. Biryukov is a charismatic performer. Founder of the Glendale Philharmonic Orchestra and Los Angeles Cello Quartet, and Artistic Director of Positive Motions Concert Series in Los Angeles, Cellist Ruslan Biryukov is known for his “superb artistry, passion and individuality.” He has often appeared with the Southland Symphony Orchestra, and is also the only cellist ever to be invited to perform solo recitals for 10 consecutive years at the Sundays Live Concert Series in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Ruslan was born in Baku, Azerbaijan and received his formal music education at the Tchaikovsky Moscow Conservatory in Russia (Master of Music, M.A.), and the USC Thornton School of Music in United States (Artist Diploma and Graduate Certificate). He first earned international recognition by winning major awards in Azerbaijan and by the inclusion of his name in the Golden Book of Russia’s international program “New Names”. Biryukov has gone on to win numerous other awards worldwide, including the Grand Prize at the 17th Mu Phi Epsilon International Competition.
