Cellist-composer Sebastian Baverstam wrote his own concerto to showcase himself as a virtuoso cellist.

The work was once dubbed as “Superman Concerto” (after Nietzsche) as if it could only be played with the ability that surpasses human limits.

After winning First Prize Boston Symphony Orchestra Concerto Competition at the young age of 17, prodigy cellist Baverstam started his concert touring career.

His debut at Carnegie’s Weill recital hall in 2012 led to him revive his passion for composition where he premiered a set of variations for solo cello on the traditional theme Frère Jacques.

“I had poured every ounce of my soul into composing and practicing this concerto; the most difficult cello concerto ever written.

I wrote it for myself and I nicknamed it “Superman” because of its difficulty.” Baverstam concerto marked the soloist’s highest artistic reach.
