There’s no stopping time… After playing for nearly four decades with Filharmonie Brno, Pavel Šabacký, a charismatic cellist and for many years the principal of the cellos, says goodbye to the orchestra. For his farewell concert, he has devised a diverse programme, inviting his colleagues from the cello section, Chief Conductor Dennis Russell Davies in the role of pianist and the singer Kateřina Mrázková to perform.
