Marvelous!
A stunning and heartfelt tribute.
Superlative playing and totally heartfelt. Especially moving bearing in mind the passing of Maestro Penderecki too.
Moving and beautifully played. Thank you.
Moving, indeed — especially so, to discover at its conclusion that it was performed for an audience: communal music performed in community.
A quasi double tribute, Penderecki having passed away late March. The piece was premiered by the NSO under Rostropovich.
