A Tribute to Mstislav Rostropovich
Cellist Mstislav Rostropovich, or ‘Slava’ as he was known to beloved friends and musicians the world over, left an overwhelming and enduring musical legacy upon his death in April 2007, aged 80. His accomplishments have influenced cellists from all corners of the globe. As our Honorary Patron and inspiration to the London Cello Society, his presence remains a vital force, urging us onward to open new frontiers and opportunities for the cello and for music.
