About

Second programme dedicated to the cellist Zara Nelsova (born in Canada to Russian parents, and now almost 100 years old) combined pieces of their few recordings that exist, exalted by her 1726 Stradivarius. Here we have here an opulent unusual trilogy starting with romantic Russian Sonata and transfiguring modern cello solo masterworks.
