Ruslan Talas Performs Paganini Caprice Op1 No17 at the Stuttgart International Violin Competition Praise for Ruslan Talas “Talas tossed off octaves and tenths, entire passages of artificial harmonics, up-bow staccato, ricochet, and more with apparent ease. This piece calls for one devilishly difficult technique after another, and Talas did it with panache and musicality.” — The Violinist Luigi Carroccia – Polonaise in A flat major Op. 53 (second stage) Praise for Luigi Carroccia “Luigi Carroccia took the stage with an air of confidence born out of being secure with his abilities. And was he ever. As his performance went on, the realization of his gift only grew stronger. They can all play the notes rapidly and most can even get into the music. Carroccia was something different." — Gregory Sullivan Isaacs, Theater Jones Program: Beethoven: Violin Sonata No. 9 in A major, Op. 47 (Kreutzer) Franck: Sonata in A Major for Violin and Piano
