Kobekina fuses Bach and now: iconic suites meet bold, boundary-pushing works
Bach meets the future. Twice in a single evening.
Anastasia Kobekina, one of the most exciting cellists of her generation, performs Bach’s iconic Cello Suites - but not in the traditional way. She challenges them. In every concert she interweaves three legendary suites with a daring contemporary work that pushes the boundaries of the cello and sharpens your senses. This is no ordinary Bach. This is Bach with a contemporary punch, in which Kobekina fuses the classical depth of the master with the electric energy of the 21st century. Her playing is both a tribute to the past and an invitation to embrace the future.
Expect three suites per concert section, each with a modern counterbalance. Twice the magic of Bach, twice the tension of the new. Yesterday’s master meets the pioneer of tomorrow - and Kobekina effortlessly brings them together.
