Gustavo Dudamel in conversation with Edicson Ruiz (9 min.)

Like Edicson Ruiz, double-bass player with the Berliner Philharmoniker, Gustavo Dudamel is originally from Venezuela, and both of them received their first musical inspiration in the legendary education project El Systema. The musician friends take this concert, consisting of works by Beethoven, Schubert and Strawinsky, as an occasion to talk about music in Berlin and Venezuela and to speak about the youthful melancholy of Schubert’s melodies.
