- A concerto written for a secret childhood love. The Russian cellist Anastasia Kobekina plays Antonín Dvořák's Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104 full of passion and longing, accompanied by the world-class ensemble Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich under the baton of chief conductor Paavo Järvi. The performance was recorded live at the Bonn Beethoven Festival on September 1, 2023, at the Bonn Opera.

It is said that the Czech composer Antonín Dvořák described the cello as "a piece of wood that squeaks at the top and growls at the bottom." And yet he discovered his love for the instrument in the US. Dvořák composed his Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104 between 1894 and 1895, at the end of a three-year stay in the US. The concerto is one of the most popular works for cello music today. A must for every cello professional and a "dream piece" for Anastasia Kobekina, as she herself says.
Just as Dvořák was reluctant to use the cello as a solo instrument in the orchestra, he was also initially reluctant to relocate to America. In June 1891, he was offered the position of music director at the newly founded National Conservatory in New York. Dvořák declined, as he had just started a position as a professor at the Prague Conservatory. In 1892, he accepted the US offer after all, lured by the high salary.
Regarded as a representative of the Czech national style in his home country, Dvořák was to establish a new, independent American musical culture in the US. Antonín Dvořák's 9th Symphony "From the New World" is considered a prime example of this. Nevertheless, the sounds of his native Bohemia also flowed into his works in the US. The extent to which he missed his homeland is particularly evident in his cello concerto.
In the second movement of the concerto, Antonín Dvořák quotes one of his songs, "Lasst mich allein" (Leave me Alone) (Op. 82), which he had written for his secret and unrequited childhood sweetheart Josefina Kounicová, the sister of his future wife. In America, Dvořák had learned that his sister-in-law was seriously ill. She died in May 1895. After his return to his home country, Dvořák changed the coda of the last movement. In this movement he also refers to Czech folklore and again quotes the song "Laßt mich allein."
Antonín Dvořák dedicated the cello concerto to his friend, the great cellist Hanuš Wihan who was supposed to play the solo part at the premiere. But a dispute arose. Wihan wanted to make many changes and even wrote a cadenza for the concerto himself against Dvořák's wishes. At the premiere in March 1896, the English cellist Lio Stern played the solo. Dvořák was on the podium and conducted the Royal Philharmonic Society in London.
In this recording, the young cellist Anastassia Kobekina demonstrates her skills with the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich under the direction of its Estonian chief conductor, Paavo Järvi. Kobekina picked up her first cello at the age of four. She studied in Russia, Paris, and Germany, including at the Kronberg Academy for highly talented musicians. The 29-year-old has won prizes at numerous international competitions and is one of the most promising young talents of her generation. She performs as a soloist with renowned orchestras such as the Vienna Philharmonic, The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, and the Warsaw Philharmonic. She has lived in Germany eleven years and is a regular guest at prestigious music festivals such as the Beethoven Festival, the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, and the Rheingau Music Festival. Anastasia Kobekina is known for her captivating temperament and her exceptional versatility and technique.

If the brass at 35:26 and the sweet, passionate interlude between cello and violin fail to send your ASMR off the charts and bring tears to your eyes, I fear you have no soul.
Absolute stunning performance!
Thank you for pointing this out!
Excelente una explosión de sonidos entre mezclada con una melodía suave .Un placer para los oídos.
I heard Meneses play this live once. As terrific as this. It is a masterpiece.
¡My cello favourite concerto! I love it ❤ her interpretation is so nice. Tender when is neccesary and she is so like woman. Thanks DG and TH-cam

Kobekina plays with such elegance and mastery. There's passion but with an underlying lightness, and no excesses. I just love her playing.

💞💞🥰
Настёна💔💪🐘
❤❤❤
Stupenda 😊
Allons ! ne faisons pas la fine bouche, ne boudons pas notre plaisir : la Kobekina fait magnifiquement couiner et grogner son bout de bois sans même risquer de le scier par le milieu ! Et quel bel accompagnement désintéressé de la 1ère flûte (surtout dans le 2d mouvement), qu'au reste la Belle ignore superbement (mais c'est le lot ingrat de nombre flûtistes avec même les plus prestigieux cellistes...) !

Anastasia 😍🤩👏👏💯💯
It’s Elaine Benes!
Just my opinion i dont like so much her interpretation, but i can recognise speaking as a cellist that she is increadibly good technically
A consoling conclusion.
Анастасия Кобекина🎶✨

Beautiful version, but I still prefer Du Pré-Barenboim one.
Jamais l'anglais ne saura traduire les richesses et les résonances d'une langue comme le français, l'allemand, le russe, l'italien, etc. Je frémis en imaginant les "traductions", et les non-sens, sinon contre-sens, des "traductions" de Google...
Sicher technisch perfekt, aber wo ist da die Freude, wo ist die Begeisterung? Da sind wir meilenweit entfernt von modernen weiblich dominierten Interpretationen, Aus der Zeit gefallen!
La orquesta suena muy mal (desafinan instrumentos) y la celista mediocre

💕 " Allah is beautiful and love the beauty " prophet Mohamed peace upon him..

Allah forbid music! Stupid!

And you better believe it. Really... you better do that..Or else.
