about

This release is not just another piece of music: It is a tribute to cellist Dmitri Levine (1939 - 2015) who sadly passed away shortly after those Rehearsal Sessions. Unable to finish those tracks with him, I decided to re-master the original recordings and wanted to get this out and share his expressive playing with you all.

I met Dimi in 2010, when I was looking to collaborate with a cellist to replace some midi tracks with an actual instrumental recording. We immediately liked each other and started working in my studio on a regular basis. Besides his beautiful and emotional approach to performance, Dimi impressed me for his kind and patient personality. He became much more than a musical mentor, but someone who changed the way I see my life and work forever.

Rest in peace Dimi, I will be eternally grateful!

About Dimi and the release:
Born in a musical family, Dimi was a child prodigy and his talent as a cellist was immediately recognised. Eventually, music turned into his passion and profession for 69 years, having played his instrument just a hour before his death.

In Russia, he performed with the Rimski-Korsakow-Quartet for over three decades and he had the privilege to travel the world and record on numerous albums and television shows. In the mid-nineties, he moved to Berlin where he became concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and founder of the “Musik Collegium Berlin”, an open ensemble with a Russian, Italian and Czech Repertoire.

Enjoy and please share the music if you like it.

Yours,
Sebastian
