Unique Dvoř��k Maximilian Hornung & friends

Antonin Dvořák’s lyrical Cello Concerto: known among cellists as the ultimate cello concerto. Five cellos sing the famous piece in an arrangement by Paul Handschke. Moreover, the piece is shown with an entirely new dimension in this arrangement, which shines a light on an array of details easy to miss in the original music. The same effect can be seen in Tchaikovsky’s warm-blooded and romantic Serenade, in an arrangement for four cellos. Join us at Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ.

The cello concerto to rule all cello concertos, by five cellos

Handschke is the principal cellist of the Tonhalle Orchestra in Zürich. He created his arrangement during the pandemic, during which his orchestra couldn’t perform, but there were performing opportunities for smaller ensembles. Handschke’s arrangement became a hit on YouTube, partly thanks to the passionate rendition of the five Swiss cellist friends who are here for this evening as well.
