Described by Yo-Yo Ma as a ‘treasure’ and a ‘great example for the music world’, this versatile group of cellists will travel slow from Amsterdam to Galway to open Cellissimo on 20 May. Their wide-ranging programme will veer from Villa-Lobos’ Bachianas Brasileiras No. 1 to works by Peteris Vasks, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Arvo Pärt – who said the Cello Octet is ‘worth its weight in gold’. The Octet will remain in Galway for the duration of the festival – stay tuned as further detailed are announced!
