“The cello is my original instrument. I have been learning to play all my adult life, trying to give the cello a life different from the usual and generally accepted, to take it from the orchestral group to a new level. This is a self-sufficient and multifunctional tool, although it requires a lot of attention in practice and comprehension. Its beauty and the experience of its predecessors constantly inspire me to search for something new.
