Edgar Meyer joins CCOHK in performing Bottesini’s double bass masterpiece and his own concerto, a hybrid of bluegrass and Haydnesque styles brimful with Meyer-made tricks. Baroque-inspired works by Boccherini and Schnittke round off the programme with moments of old-world charm and sheer dare-devil fire!
