Gautier Capucon played Shostakowitch's Cello-Concerto N° 1.
We (wife & I) were right in front of him, ~4 m away. Wow.
It reminded me of a concert of the Who (never saw them live though), he kinda wreaked havoc on his instrument, unbelievable.
Near the end, the 2nd string gave up and jumped off the board, but even this didn't stop him. (A cellist from the orchestra wanted to help out and gave his cello and the conductor had to keep it until the end)
Had no time and no occasion to take a picture.
