🎵 Luka Sulic – Czardas (Vittorio Monti)
Live with the Zagreb Soloists – Lisinski Concert Hall, Zagreb
In June 2015, world-renowned cellist Luka Sulic, best known as one half of the iconic duo 2Cellos (Luka and Hauser), delivered a fiery and emotional performance of Czardas by Vittorio Monti. The arrangement, crafted by Valter Dešpalj, breathed new life into this Hungarian rhapsody, presented at the Lisinski Concert Hall in Zagreb, Croatia.
Accompanied by the Zagreb Soloists, Luka guided the audience through every color of this thrilling piece — from the slow, tender opening to the dazzling and virtuosic finale. His expressive bow control and precise intonation highlight not just technical mastery, but deep musical sensitivity.
This performance stands as a perfect example of how classical music can be both traditional and modern — passionate yet precise, intimate yet powerful. Šulić’s connection with the music is palpable, and his chemistry with the ensemble makes the performance unforgettable.
