Last night's final concert in the Martha's Vineyard Chamber Music Society summer series was sublime. Cellist Antonio Lysy played with violinist Roger Wilkie and pianist Dolores Stevens.
My favorite piece was Hungarian composer Zoltan Kodaly's Duo for violin and cello, op. 7.
Lysy plays a Carlo Tononi cello made in Bologna in 1700.

An old friend of mine played the cello for a long time, and his teacher had a Guarnerius that he allowed my friend to play occasionally. He said that it was quite small, and when he played it it produced almost a rumble of bass that he could feel in his guts! He said the experience was amazing, and unlike anything he had ever played.
