Wolfram HUSCHKE
E- & Acoustic Cello
NO HOLDS BARRED!
"From BACH to JIMI HENDRIX"
The creative synthesis of musical worlds. He knows how to rouse the audience with his cello. An excellent musician, entertainer, poet and true goodwill ambassador. He does not adhere to the limitations and categorization often applied to music and constantly transgresses established borders between various genres. In other words, he sees no reason why he shouldn't interpret music from Bach to Hendrix, treating the two as if they are related and as if it is completely natural that we would listen to one kind of music with the other. He makes use of exuberant fantasy and unbelievable energy in playing music and narrating anecdotes and in this way delivers his message to his listeners and viewers: there is only one music.
