The article states "Cello Concerto No. 1 was premiered in 1949 by Sviatoslav Knushevitsky, a Russian cellist who was a student at the time." Knushevitski was born in 1908, so he would have been 41 years old in 1949 -- quite old for a student! He had won First Prize in the All Union Music Competition in 1933 (when he was 25) and had already formed a famous trio with David Oistrakh and Lev Oborin in 1940 and had concertos dedicated to him by Myaskovski (1944), Khatchaturyan (1946) and Glière (1946) so he hardly was a "student-level player" when he premiered the Kabalevski concerto.
