His performance is concentrated on classical music with the breadth and deep repertoire, as well as extravagant and virtuoso compositions.Max Beitan represents a new way of unique individual interpretation in the art of the cello. His expression on the cello is synthesis of belcanto and a “speaking” technique. "
