This CD set offers an extensive anthology of Cello Sonata on 33 CDs.
The deep resonant and eloquent sound of the cello is able to express the widest spectrum of human emotions, from intimately whispering, mournfully lamenting to passionately singing.
The selection starts with the first sonatas for cello solo and b.c. by Pericoli, Lanzetti, Zuccari, Porpora and Vivaldi, through the Classical Period with Geminiani, Boccherini Ries, Beethoven, Hummel, Moscheles, Mendelssohn and Schubert towards the full bodied Romantic Era with Grieg, Rachmaninoff, Brahms, Franck, Faure, Martucci, into the 20th century with Debussy, Cilea, Britten, Shostakovich, Schnittke and others.
Featuring excellent cellists and pianists in stylish and passionate performances.
A cornucopia of cello sonatas, never before featured on such scale and scope!
