Spotlight on this release

Awards and reviews

Awards Issue 2018

His tone is certainly gloriously rich – the cello equivalent of Sachertorte – but throbbing vibrato is applied like Schlagobers regardless of period of style, so that his Bach sounds indistinguishable from his Massenet…An individual track here or there makes a pleasant listen. Consume the whole disc at once, though, and you may suffer indigestion.
