Seiber, Dorati & Bartok Cello Concertos
Review | "Raphael Wallfisch delivers a very engaging performance of this work, ably supported bu Gabor Takacs-Nagy and an alert BBC National Orchestra of Wales." BBC Music Magazine, September 2015 "Here's a generous and typically imaginative programme from cellist Raphael Wallfisch comprising three rarely heard concertos by Hungarian emigrés in splendidly stylish and dashingly committed readings. Terrific work, too, from the BBC NOW directed by Gábor Takács-Nagy, and admirably realistic sound to boot." Classical Ear, October 2015 “Raphael Wallfisch brings his formidable technique and lovely tone to extract much feeling from works for cello and orchestra. He brings together two rare works for cello and orchestra by Mátyás Seiber and Antal Dorati on a new release from Nimbus that also includes Bartok’s Viola Concerto in Tibor Serly’s adaptation for cello and orchestra. Raphael Wallfisch combined his formidable technique and lovely tone with an ability to extract so much feeling from this music. Who better than the Hungarian conductor Gábor Takács-Nagy to conduct the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in this repertoire. They are beautifully recorded at Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff, Wales and there are informative booklet notes. This is a really fine collection of Hungarian works for cello and orchestra that I wouldn't wish to be without.” theclassicalreviewer.blogspot.co.uk |
