Sasha Rozhdestvensky was described by Yehudi Menuhin as ‘one of the most talented and refined violinists of his generation’. Jeremy Menuhin is widely regarded for his artistry and the integrity of his interpretations: ‘unfailingly lyrical, exemplary, exquisitely polished, yet directly expressive’ (The New York Times).

In 2002 Mookie Lee-Menuhin won the YAMAHA compeition and in 2003, she received the prestigious Augustinus Award. In 2014, Ilona Domnich was chosen by Opera Now magazine as one of The Top 10 high flyers, ‘new generation of sopranos who are destined to have impressive careers’.
