Conductor DONATAS KATKUS

An aristocratic sensibility and a free spirit. That would be a brief description of the cellist
Dominique de Williencourt. Although he lives in the city of dreams of many an artist – Paris – he searches for inspiration in the desert, the mountains, in India, Central Asia... And despite being eagerly awaited in the most famous world halls, he gives his premiere performances in the most distant villages in the world, or on the shores of a lake...
Regardless, the performer enjoys a wide following: “A refined and cultured virtuoso, enchanting for his honesty, the silk tones of his cello, and the elegance of his performance” (Diapason).
And we too are sure that you will also be left enchanted, all the more so as D. de Williencourt has prepared an exceptionally masterful repertoire!

Programme – D. Popper , R. Schumann, and others.

Concert duration: 90 min
