»It could only be Shostakovich!« commented the BBC presenter when Sheku Kanneh-Mason entered the final of the »BBC Young Musician« in 2016 with Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto. Naturally, he emerged as the winner of the competition, in which he performed a different work by Shostakovich from round to round. His power composer! And there is no doubt that the now 25-year-old musician is one of the greatest talents on the cello. In ProArte’s »International Soloists« series, Kanneh-Mason juxtaposes the cello concerto dedicated to Rostropovich from 1959 with Ravel’s Hebrew melody Kaddish – an elegiac song that unfolds a particularly intense power in the version for cello and strings. And to mark the Ravel Year 2025, the Camerata Salzburg also contributes »Le tombeau de Couperin«, his very personal and highly artistic exploration of French Baroque music.

Bruce Liu / Amsterdam Sinfonietta / Candida Thompson

Mandarin, French, English? For Bruce Liu, it’s just a question for the other person – the Paris-born Canadian with Chinese roots is equally fluent in all three languages. But his best means of expression is undoubtedly music. Since winning first place at the Chopin Competition in Warsaw in 2021, the young pianist has been attracting crowds of new listeners with his subtle and unpretentious playing. Deutsche Grammophon hired him straight away as an exclusive artist and the doors of the great classical temples suddenly opened for the piano student, who has since surpassed the great promise that comes with such a competition win. His Chopin sounds like a language of its own – universally understandable and individually moving at the same time!
