Tsalka performed the concerti with three young South African prodigies: Daniel Spies (flute), Gilah Kellner (violin), and Willie Naude (cello). He has won awards in Europe, the United States, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America, and has recorded numerous CDs, including all of Beethoven’s works for mandolin and piano.
The concert was supported by a collaboration between Tararam, the South Africa/Israel Culture Fund, the Israeli Embassy, and the Brooklyn Theatre.
