Experience Matthias Balzat's mastery in Vieuxtemps' "Cello Concerto No. 1", a highlight of a concert that starts with Beethoven and concludes with Bizet's charming symphony.
“The music was in his body, his fingers and his brain as if it could be no other way. The cello seemed like an extension of his body and, for the first time any cares I had about the acoustic, the instrument, the work, the age of the player, or anything else, totally disappeared“ - Tony Ryan, Radio NZ
