Sasa Vectomov - Haydn D-major Cello Concerto 1st mov. part 1.wmv

Sasa Vectomov was one of the greatest cellist ever. He was born to musical family year 1930 in Czechoslovakia. Already at young age Sasa was greatly influenced by his father, cellist Ivan Vectomov (solo cellist of Czech Philharmonic) and so he very soon started to follow his father's footsteps. Sasa Vectomov studied with professor Ladislav Zelenka, first (1945-1951) at the Prague conservatory and subsequently at the Academy of Musical Arts; in 1953 he did a graduate course under professor Kozolupov in Moscow and later he still studied with French cellist Andre Navarra. Vectomov's refined playing, based on perfect techinque, elastic, sophisticated and warm tone and inborn musical feeling earned him prizes in several competitions. He won 1st prize in the Hanus Wihan Competition at the 1955 edition of the Prague Spring festival, and year 1959 Sasa won 2nd prize in the Pablo Casals competition in Mexico City. Sasa Vectomov made a number of recordings during his lifetime, mostly for Czech company Supraphon. As a soloist, Sasa played throughout Europe, in North and South America, India, Japan, Iran, Egypt etc. He was a member of Czech Trio and Prague String quartet and was teaching at Prague Academy of Music. Vectomov played two Italian cellos, an Alessandro Gagliano of 1712 and Giambattista Guadagnini of 1754. Unfortunately Sasa left the world suprisinly at the age of 59 and unfortunately he never gained the international reputation he deserved. Sasa Vectomov was truly a great artist, and an exceptional cellist with 30 different glissandos. I never personally heard him live, but luckily I found his wonderful recordings. I hope you will enjoy his artistry.
