Who is the cellist??

[Glinkaism1]

First time I've heard this, so I can't compare tempo. Pretty good piece of music IMHO. Cheers!

[abracadabraization]

Super Narek! Bravo!

[markchentx]

I can't agree with this tempo. Average play time of this piece is about 8 minute, and they dragged it to over 10 minutes. The lively mood is gone, replaced by boredom.

best performance on youtube - bravo!

[nancyella]

Good performance, with classical clarinet sound, not Klezmer sound. Why are only two performers identified?
