Präzise und gleichzeitig lyrische Leistung dieses kompakten und fein bearbeiteten Meisterstücks mit tiefem Ton des Solocellos. Genialer Cellist!

How I love this piece and it is played with such feeling of melancholy and sadness. It was also used in one of my favorite ballets, Onegin as Lensky's solo before he dies in a duel.
