Richard Studt, conductor
Richard Studt, Director and Associate Conductor of the Bournemouth Sinfonietta,
a pupil of Manoug Parikian and winner of various prizes as a student at the
London Royal Academy of Music, was for some ten years a violinist and soloist
with the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields. He was subsequently concert-master
of the London Symphony Orchestra and directed the London Virtuosi, the Concertante
of London and his own Tate Music Group, recording with the last of these five
Vivaldi concerti, two of which were, newly discovered. As a conductor he studied
with Maurice Handford and received significant encouragement from Simon Rattle
and from courses under Sergiu Celibidache. At the same time he continues his
career as a violinist in classic repertoire on his Stradivarius instrument,
the 'Dolphus', made in 1727.
