Classical: Came (Kam) Saw And Triumphed

Attention, Mussician's joke: Why don't violists like to visit graveyards? Because there are too many sharps (Crosses). Ori Kam, who grew up in Israel and the United States, is certainly not the target of such jokes. He plays the viola in Telemann's "12 Fantasies for solo viola" with great virtuosity and deepest expression. The sharps in the musical text are for him: laughable!
