Work: Nocturne for cello and orchestra, Op.19 no.4

A splendid recital by Armenian cellist Narek Hakhnazaryan in King's Place's "Cello Unwrapped" series pays tribute to Russian cellist Anatoly Brandukov. 

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.
