About
Britten wrote these three suites for his friend Mstislav Rostropovich. They have been a bench mark of a cellist’s musicianship ever since the first performances in the early 1960s and 70s. Cellist Denise Djokic has been called one of the most captivating young artists of her generation. These are truly dedicated performances by a very gifted rising star.

Djokic presents the music with dignity and flair – there is no sense of anything to prove, or of pressing on to the next big moment……Her playing is exquisitely recorded to bring out the freshness and crispness of her sound without losing any clarity through reverberation.
