Mischa Maisky

The Yellow Lounge is nowhere more true to its reputation of bringing classical music to unusual spaces than here in the stunning setting inside MORI Building Digital Art Museum in Tokyo. Pianist Alice Sara Ott as well as cellist Mischa Maisky perform repertoire from Debussy, Satie, Saint-Saëns and Massenet.

Johann Sebastian Bach composed his Six Suites for Solo Cello in the early 1720's. Unlike the Six Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin, composed around the same time, there is no extant autograph manuscript. Only four copies exist, of which one made by Anna Magdelena Bach is the standard performing edition Maisky has acknowledged the period instruments style of Bach in these performances. His playing is slightly more reserved, somewhat analytical, very broad and powerful with a rich and deeply resonant string sound

The programme was rounded off by late-Romantic masterpieces by César Franck, Antonín Dvo?ák and Dmitri Shostakovich’s Ninth Symphony under the baton of renowned maestro Neeme Järvi.
