"He has no fear, and that is so unusual in the classical world," cellist Yo-Yo Ma says of Giovanni Sollima, a reckless virtuoso, versatile artist, and composer who embraces music history and Mediterranean traditions with equal passion and desire. We find him in this concert as Conductor and soloist, with a program dedicated to Haydn, among his favorite composers "because he dared more than anyone else," whose second cello concerto he performs along with his Folktales, a crossroads of sounds and suggestions, for a performance of extraordinary energy.
