Here we\u2019re talking about an exceptional soloist, who had an authoritative understanding of the work right from the outset. This is not a concerto that displays immediate virtuosity, but by contrast it requires introspection and intimacy at many points, as well as stamina in the faster sections, all combined with the sarcasm and ironic bitterness that are so typical of Shostakovich.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Polo faithfully conveyed the Russian composer\u2019s complex thoughts. Great commitment and musicality were shown. As far as interpretation is concerned, it\u2019s always worth finding a musically sensitive soloist such as Asier Polo, and he was quite rightly the great star of tonight\u2019s concert.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Source:<\/strong> Diario de Navarra, Xabier Armend\u00e1riz.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026asistimos a una interpretaci\u00f3n antol\u00f3gica del Concierto para violoncello n.2 de Schostakovich, y es que cont\u00e1bamos con un solista de excepci\u00f3n, que entendi\u00f3 magistralmente la obra desde el comienzo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[8],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1184"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1212,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1184\/revisions\/1212"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1184"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1184"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asierpolo.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
