Life and death in Istanbul: Maisky family trio plays Mahler, Shostakovich and Schumann

Mischa Maisky, the de-facto romantic cellist, gave the Istanbul audience a triple treat of passionate cello playing in Brahms, Tchaikovsky and Bruch, but surprisingly enough he was in most uninhibited during the Haydn concerto.Mr Maisky’s vibrato is excessive, a trait inherited from his longtime teacher and mentor Gregor Piatigorsky, but it never gets in the way of music.

Lily Maisky, piano, y Mischa Maisky, chelo, ofrecieron un recital de sorprendente sintonía artística que cerró el ciclo de cámara del Círculo de Bellas Artes a un nivel altísimo.

En concierto fuera de temporada, la OFUNAM ofreció un programa de experencias sonoras contrastantes, cuyo atractivo principal fue la presencia del Trío Maisky.

Martha Argerich and Mischa Maisky's duo recital at Wigmore Hall turns into a trio... and offers the London audience a rare opportunity to hear the Argentinian pianist play solo.

Some 37 years after his Singapore debut, the cellist revisits Saint-Saëns' First Cello Concerto with the Singapore Symphony and Han-Na Chang. 

Age sometimes brings compensations: Mischa Maisky's total commitment to the Schumann concerto left Daniel Lozakovich out in the cold with Brahms. Meanwhile Klaus Mäkelä with the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra reins back Romantic feeling in Schumann's Second Symphony.
