“Jozef Podhoransk\u00fd is a creative and ever-searching type of a performer. Never satisfied with what his achievements, he keeps striving for higher quality. With age increasing and as his experience build-up, he is able to translate the composer\u2019s intentions in an ever more accurate way. His performances, always characterised by sharp style, draw especially on high musical intelligence, rich and creative fantasy, elegance of performing, sense for dramatic density, highly cultured tone, and last but not least, on his solid technical background. He is equally exquisite as a philosophical meditator or as a ravishing virtuoso. His elements of performing mastery always come in a careful and tasteful dosage. Podhoransk\u00fd is endowed with a rare sense of choosing the right degree of personal contribution, he never exaggerates. He is always of great inspiration for his partners, be it in a duo or a chamber ensemble, while the final concept always bears his specific imprint. He can make use of a wide range of dynamic undulations, as well as of those of colour, rhythm and agogics, of numerous shades in humour. Like any other prominent artist, Podhoransk\u00fd is able to unite them in a unified and impressive music line.”<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Podhoransk\u00fd\u2019s soloist repertory starts with the baroque masters and reaches all stylistic periods, with both concert and sonata pieces abundantly represented (some authors such as Beethoven, Brahms, Schumann, Dvo\u0159\u00e1k are fully covered). His performances and premieres of Slovak cello pieces have also won acclaim; some of them have even been dedicated directly to him. His artistic and teaching career, spanning for over a quarter-century also includes performances in chamber ensembles, mostly in string quartets.<\/p>\n

As an educator, Podhoransk\u00fd draws on methodology of the Russian cello school, enriching it by principles from other methodologies and especially by his knowledge of a soloist of chamber music performer. He has been also publishing on methodology of teaching the basics of cello playing and has also done a revision Slovak works on cello. His lectures focused on the need of a modern teaching approach which heeds the student\u2019s psychology. He was the vice-president of the Slovak section of the European String Teachers Association (ESTA) from 1994. Since 1989, he has been leading international performers\u2019 master classes in Pie\u0161\u0165any and also was invited to prominent similar events abroad, namely in P\u00e9cs, Csongr\u00e1d and Baja (Hungary), Obersch\u00fctzen (Austria), in Klagenfurt as a part of the New Music Forum (1992), he often sits in juries of Slovak and international performers\u2019 contests. In 1990, he was elected vice-president of the Slovak Music Union, while in1994 he became member of the board of trustees of the Slovak Concert Artists Association, part of the Slovak Music Union. He directs performers\u2019 master classes at the Conservatory in \u017dilina since their start in 1996.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
