An orchestra of 158 cellos plays variations on 'Happy Birthday' in honour of Antonio Janigro on the 100th anniversary of his birth organised by the Antonio Janigro Association - janigro100th.org
The concert took place on 21 January 2018 at the Vatroslav Lisinski hall in Zagreb.
Although born Italian, Janigro made Croatia his adopted homeland.
In addition to being a cello soloist and teacher he founded the Zagreb Soloists (I Solisti di Zagreb), a chamber orchestra that brought him recognition as a conductor as well. The ensemble has been the Ambassador of Croatian Culture for over 60 years. Janigro was also the founder of the Croatian Radio Television Symphony Orchestra.
