Over 20,000 discs sold, more than 220 concerts at home and abroad, two extensive tours... + Those are just a few examples of the successes gained by the Gipsy Way project in the wake of the 2008 album Pavel Šporcl recorded with his Gipsy band. + Six years later, in tandem with Supraphon, the violinist held two concerts at Prague’s legendary Domovina Studio, whose fruit is the new CD, Gipsy Fire. + On this new release a succession of technically challenging “Gipsy” repertoire pieces are blended with catchy and melancholic film melodies (Grand blond avec une chaussure noire and Fiddler on the Roof, and a theme Pavel recorded for the Czech movie Divided We Fall) and Piazzolla’s breathtakingly beautiful prayer Ave Maria. + Pavel and the Gipsy Way Ensemble play as if their very lives are in the balance; the audience’s frenzied response indicates that they don’t want the music to ever stop.
