The Hebrew rhapsody Schelomo for cello and orchestra is full of stylistic elements from Jewish music. The cello represents the voice of King Solomon. And who better to be this voice than Mischa Maisky?
One of the discoveries of the Cello Biënnale 2022 was the seldom performed second cello concerto by Kabalevsky. Kian Soltani gave an emotional performance of it and returns to accept the challenge of matching that experience.
