Pulse of Minimalism: in one of the last live concerts before lockdown, Lithuanian composer Gediminas Gelgotas conducts concert of his own music and other contemporary composers
On 17 October 2020, the Lithuanian composer and conductor Gediminas Gelgotas conducted musicians from his New Ideas Chamber Orchestra and from the Lithuanian National Symphony Orchestra in a concert entitled The Pulse of Minimalism, in the Lithuanian National Philharmonic Great Hall in Vilnius. It was one of the last concerts in the hall before it closed for the second lockdown in Lithuania, which continues to this day. Luckily for us, the concert was filmed by Lithuanian National Philharmonic Television, a project which aims to bring the audience as close to the music as possible. The programme consisted of British cellist and composer Peter Gregson's Bach Cello Suites Recomposed (2018); originally scored for cello sextet, it was here performed by solo double bass, Roman Patkolo, and string orchestra.

Also, Piano Trio "Notturno"; Standchen; Ave Maria. Anne-Sophie Mutter, violin; Daniil Trifonov, piano; Hwayoon Lee, viola; Maximilian Hornung, cello; Roman Patkolo, double bass. DG 00289 7570.What's not to like? You've got one of the world's most-popular virtuosic violinists, Anne-Sophie Mutter, in the lead, supported by the equally popular piano virtuoso Daniil Trifonov and three soloists from the Anne-Sophie Mutter Foundation: Hwayoon Lee, viola; Maximilian Hornung, cello; and Roman Patkolo, double bass. Then you've got some of the world's most-popular chamber music, Schubert's "Trout" Quintet and several other delightful short pieces. So, what's not to like?
