Mischa Maisky, János Balázs & Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

Mischa Maisky is the only cellist in the world to have studied under both Mstislav Rostropovich and Gregor Piatigorsky. Rostropovich lauded him saying “His playing combines poetry and exquisite delicacy with great temperament and brilliant technique.” Born in Latvia, brought up in Russia and now resident in Israel, Mischa Maisky considers himself to be a true citizen of the world. Over the past quarter of a century he has recorded more than 30 albums (winning numerous prizes in the process) with ensembles such as the philharmonic orchestras of Vienna, Berlin and Israel, the London Symphonics, the Orchestre de Paris and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe. Over the more than 50 years of their existence the Franz Liszt Chamber Orchestra have become a permanent feature among the international elite of classical music. Year after year, the ensemble (headed by Péter Tfirst since 2016) appear in top concert halls throughout the world and work with the cream of soloist artists, who enjoy the orchestra’s high degree of precision, the breadth of their repertoire and their adaptability.
