Sevak Avanesyan’s technical skills - including his cello-sound, his rhythmic control , his perfect intonation, his natural feeling for tempi - are obvious to anyone who hears him play, but he has particularly impressed me with his deep musicality, and through his constant readiness to search and to find the real meaning of the music behind notes.
