Steven Isserlis- Boccherini: Cello Concertos, Sonatas & Quintets - Music of the Angels (PREORDER)
"Has there ever been a composer of more consistent elegance?" If Steven Isserlis's rhetorical question invites the listener to think of plausible alternatives, on the evidence of this wonderful album-an imaginative selection of Boccherini's cello concertos and cello-centric chamber music- they are most unlikely to succeed. This is truly 'music of the angels', with performances to match.
