Four Russian Giants
Ranging from the vigorous peasant dance to the tender Russian lullaby,
the Russian soul itself appears in the works of four great Russian
masters: Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev and Shostakovitch.
Together, they sweep the audience into captivity, forcing us
all to join them in that great voyage into their world: the world
of bold emotions. |

The sensual music of France
The scent of France is depicted here by the music of Cesar Frank,
Saint Saens, Faure and Debussy. These unearthly sensitive composers
make full use of the cello’s wide-ranging pallet of colors
and uniquely warm melodic features to bring to life a gourmet
taste of French sensuality in music.

Fire Dance; In Latin Passion
From the tangos of South America to the Spanish dancer, the fiery
Latin spirit is captured by the cello music of composers such
as Granados, De Falla, Cassado, Villa Lobos, Piazzolla and others.
This is a passionate feast, full of the exciting rhythm of life
itself. |

With a broken voice; the anguish
of a Jewish cello
What could be more befitting than a cello expressing the pain,
suffering, persecutions, hopes and aspirations of the Jewish people?
Crying with a broken voice, the cello fascinated composers of Jewish
origin as well as of non Jewish origin, indeed granting voice to
a Jewish soul.
