In 2005 the Philharmonic Orchestra of the Northern German Radio in Hanover performed with triumph the world premiere of his Viola Tango Rock Concerto, written especially for Maksim Vengerov.

Yusupov has also composed the Cello Concerto for  Mischa Maisky, which was dedicated to the soloist’s sixtieth birthday. The premier of this work was held in Lucerne and was conducted by the composer.

In 2014 he premiered the Violin Concerto “Voices of the Violin”, dedicated to Vadim Repin.
Yusupov has conducted many symphony orchestras in Europe and America. All programmes prepared and conducted by him are distinguished by the depth of his performing techniques, fine taste and impeccable taste in art.
