On this edition of ‘Musica Maestra’, conductor Alondra de la Parra sits down for a chat with French violist Antoine Tamestit ahead of their concert together at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie - where Tamestit performed Béla Bartók’s Viola Concerto along with the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. The violist talks about the challenges of playing the piece, which was unfinished at the time of Bartók’s death in 1945. Antoine Tamestit also tells Alondra de la Parra how he started playing the viola, and talks about his unique instrument, believed to be the first viola ever made by legendary Italian luthier Antonio Stradivari, in 1672.
Antoine Tamestit is an internationally renowned soloist and chamber musician. As a soloist, he performs with the world's leading orchestras under the baton of renowned conductors such as Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Valery Gergiev, Daniel Harding, Paavo Järvi, Marc Minkowski, Sir Antonio Pappano and Franz Welser-Möst. His wide-ranging repertoire ranges from the baroque period to the present. Antoine Tamestit was born in Paris in 1979.
