"For three years the cellist Riccardo Pes has attended my class at Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome. Riccardo is an interesting musician, a very creative cellist and composer, his way of playing is a perfect combination of knowledge, technical skills, natural lyricism, fluent sound and fine musical instinct."
