THE SYMPHONY
ORCHESTRA OF SRI LANKA
ARCHIVE: SOLOISTS |
|
Over the years, the SOSL have been privileged to perform
with fine soloists, both instrumental and vocal. They
have been Sri Lankan born, of Sri Lankan descent,
internationally famous concert artistes, and even a
couple of legends - and happily, these are not mutually
exclusive. They have included child prodigies as well as
septuagenarians. Some have returned to perform with us
many times. They are listed below in alphabetical order,
and we thank them all for their excellent performances.

to record that the SOSL has had only three Leaders

We thank these three solo violinists for their
musicianship and commitment.
