Overview
Repertoire adventures are key to Jean-GuihenQueyras’s work.
The French cellist, who spentpart of his childhood in Algeria, has developeda close partnership with the genre-crossingGreek musician Sokratis Sinopoulos, masterof the Byzantine lyra, and percussionistsBijan and Keyvan Chemirani.
Together theyevoke the distinctive sounds, traditional andfreshly imagined, of the Aegean and easternMediterranean region. Their rich programmeis woven together with works for solo cello byStroppa, Lutosławski and Kurtág.
