Mischa Maisky has the distinction of being the only cellist in the world to have studied with both Mstislav Rostropovich and Gregor Piatigorsky. Rostropovich has lauded Mischa Maisky as: “…one of the most outstanding talents of the younger generation of cellists. His playing combines poetry and exquisite delicacy with great temperament and brilliant technique.” Born in Latvia, educated in Russia, after his repatriation to Israel, Mischa Maisky has been enthusiastically received in London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, New York and Tokyo, along with the rest of the major music centres. Now he comes to Pyatt Hall to pass on wisdom from the world’s greatest cellists to advanced students of the VSO School of Music, in front of an audience. Don’t miss this chance for an up-close-and-personal encounter with Mischa in the intimate setting of Pyatt Hall, as he shares the secrets of his artistry with talented young musicians. Tickets are only $15, and get you either a seat in the audience or access to the livestream!
