“These sound-bites are to offer a taste of some of the many repertoire areas I enjoy. They come from a variety of sources and include a couple of rarities – the Requiem by György Lickl (a Hungarian contemporary of Mozart) and my own transcription of Piazzolla’s Grand Tango with the high-voltage electric ‘cello of Kate Price!”
