I must go look for some of his performances of experimental music at Youtube. As I grow older, I appreciate the violin more. The cello continues to be favorite though. :-)

Fun fact! I played the violin growing up.
I had never actually heard of him before. Very interesting, now I'm curious. I'll have to look him up.
