Press Reviews

30. April 1999

[...] The Nigel Kennedy of the cello seems to be popular [...], at the end the applause reached the degree of a pop concert [...]

SVZ (Ernst P. Strobel)

12. May 2003

The only real bright spot was the promising cellist W.Z., who approached Bach's 3rd Solo Suite - with dance interludes by X.IDA - fairly impetuous, but technically brilliant, and fascinated in the second program, with his two Nuevo formations "anochesido" and "Continuum".
