He plays bassoon like a first violin
OrchestrasThis year’s Fanny Mendelssohn Prize goes to the bassoonist Emanuel Sint, playing sonatas by Tansman and Weinberg. Sint, 19, is the son of the pianist Elisaveta Blumina.
The jury’s citation read: Auch das Fagott kann die erste Geige sein – in his hands, the bassoon can sound like a first violin.
