If classical music [any music] has a future, it is here, in this rich mix of technical training, broad cultural awareness across nations and languages, of knowing and owning the music of the past, and in being free to be totally creative and inventive - in response to the context of performance, and addressed to people of all ages and backgrounds and ethnicities. More please...
I heard him play this fantastic piece at the end of a concert today. He had just finished playing Elgar's Cello Concerto with the BBC Philharmonic. What a contrast!
Spectacular! This is my favorite cello piece and I just love it when musicians personalize it. Seriously, I had goosebumps for 5 minutes and 25 seconds.
I love this so much. Abel is totally involved, losing himself completely, becoming one with the cello and the music. It makes me want to choreograph a dance to it... i can't sit still when i listen to this (5 times now) and each time the wildness takes over.
I'm totally blown away. Love how you manipulate your singing voice as well, on top of the fine and technical conjuration-esque style with the Cello. 👏🏿👑🔥 Much Love and Respect from Kenya. 🇰🇪
Merci à Arte de m'avoir fait découvrir Abel Selaocoe...Quel présence, quelle aura!!! Force et douceur dans la voix accompagné par ce violoncelle virevoltant et diabolique...en 1989 je regardais à la télévision Rostropovitch joué adossé sur le mur de Berlin, en 2023 je découvre un génie du violoncelle et de la voix élever la musique jusqu'aux anges... Magnifique 🙏☀️
Wow! This just became my favorite version of this piece instantly, so perfect, and perfectly individual... equally his and sollima’s in this performance and both parts so great, it’s stunning! I think I’m going to shelve the sheet music for a while again though!
I am currently learning this piece, its a great piece because your able to change it to suite your own personality and customize it to your liking. I really enjoy this recording because he put a lot of different unique customizations too it, i hope to achieve the same perfection. This is really well done! Great Work!
Greetings. I'm seeing your post 3 years later and wondering how did it go with you and your intended customization. Is there a link I could follow to listen to it? Have a beautiful day
Absolutely fantastic musicianship. He's amazing. What a shame that it was filmed so badly. I really wanted to see the whole of his performance instead of up his nostrils.

Powerfully gripping, you can feel all of his being channeled through him. I love how he incorporates the breathing. Mesmerising.

Man, what you can do with your voice and those four strings is mind-blowing ♥️

🤣
Absolutely agree about the video !
Нужно было ему целиком сниматься, так плохо чувствуется композиция
Самобытный паренёк
Beautiful performance. Horrible camera work.
