This is lovely. Simovic's face finally lights up when he's asked to play and you can see that he's a phenomenal orchestral musician. Is he still leader of the LSO? I must check. I am sure Rattle will like him.
Interesting that he uses the Arpeggione sonata to demonstrate the sound on the G string of that amazing Strad. I felt he was a little bit dismissive of modern instruments. Gil Shaham played at the Proms this year on a modern violin which had a fabulous sound and an equally amazing range of colours.
Divno bravo za Romana!!!
Divimo se!!!

In fact, the more I watch of this vid, the more I understand why the LSO appointed this intelligent, gifted, educated young man to be its leader.
Hi Nai61a, yes Roman is still Leader of the LSO. In fact we're live streaming right now and he's on stage... th-cam.com/video/_TQUrGlIyVU/w-d-xo.html
