One man show at Church of the blessed sacrament

A Solo Cello Experience by Sandro Sidamonidze Presented by Cello Beyond Borders

Multi award-winning cellist Sandro Sidamonidze. Opus Klassik Nominee and German Recording Critics’ Award Nominee, presents ONE MAN SHOW, a continuous solo cello program conceived as a single uninterrupted musical journey rather than a traditional recital.

The evening opens with Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber’s Passacaglia in G minor (“The Guardian Angel”) one of the earliest and most visionary works written for an unaccompanied string instrument. Built over an unchanging bass pattern, the music unfolds like a solitary prayer,meditative, and timeless, forming the ritual threshold of the evening.

From there, the program traces a path through the architectural clarity of Johann Sebastian Bach, into the intensely human, dance-driven language of Gaspar Cassadó, and finally toward the chant-like sound world of contemporary Armenian composer Adam Khudoyan.

The program unfolds as a unified arc, from first sound and light, through structure and body, into memory and return, carried by a single voice.

Presented in the resonant acoustic of Blessed Sacrament cathedral, ONE MAN SHOW invites listeners into a space of reflection, stillness, and deep listening.
