I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve watched this…

[@kianskiputz92]

Insanely good... 🔥

[@browniepug5317]

Not only did he play the hardest cello concerto brilliantly, he also played the hardest Bach suite as his encore.

[@aydenrodriguez5355]

he really hit that high E at the very end. incredible

[@hungryfordog2469]

Second movement so good that the audience couldn't help but applaud.

[@freemanmoser2829]

The only mistake in the video are the ads interrupting the performance

[@cadd9572]

This has gotta be the best interpretation of the Symphony-Concerto imo. His technique is impeccable and he pulls such incredible musical lines out of the score. Slava’s interpretation may be the OG but I think Cho bests him on expressive grounds

[@janbogdan4148]

One of the best performance I have ever heard! Bravo

[@Enrobdoolb]

Virtuosité prodibgieuse chez ce jeune violoncelliste dans PROKOFIEV , et une belle musicalité dans l'ALLEMANDE de BACH ; Bravo !

[@stephenmitchell367]

This is such a gorgeous harmonically and rhythmically fascinating piece. I most 'umbly submit that there was no greater writer of melody in the 20th Century. A truly unique voice. Bravo!

This is totally a perfect performance of this magnificent composing! Happy to say that I was there listening this live at this evening.

Every time I watch this video, it gives me 100% motivation to practice. That 2nd mvt. cadenza is 🔥! I’ve probably watched this video more than 20 times by now.

You can see how the other musicians from the orchestra are enjoying the music, that is so good
