Giora Feidman

Quartett

Rastrelli Cello Quartett

Obwohl dieses Quartett, benannt nach dem genialen St. Petersburger Barockarchitekten Bartolomeo Rastrelli, aus vier Celli besteht, klingt es mitunter wie ein klassisches Streichquartett. Das virtuose und klangprächtige Spiel der vier Musiker kennt keine stilistischen Grenzen und wird dafür weltweit gefeiert.
