Gautier Capuçon - Dvořák & Herbert Cello Concertos




Title:
Gautier Capuçon - Dvořák & Herbert Cello Concertos

Description:
For his second solo recording, after his critically acclaimed recording of Haydns Cello Concertos (which inaugurated his exclusive recording contract with VC in 2003), Gautier Capuçon tackles Dvoraks masterpiece for cello (his only cello concerto), and couples it with that of an unfortunately under-reputed composer of the era. Gautier Capuçon is accompanied by Paavo Järvi who directs the Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, to which Paavo Järvi has is music director since September 06. Dvořák wrote the concerto while in New York for his third term as the Director of the National Conservatory after having listened to Victor Herberts (a fellow teacher at the Conservatory) second cello concerto in 1894. Up till then Dvořák had always refused, stating that the cello was a fine orchestral instrument but totally insufficient for a solo concerto. Victor August Herbert (February 1, 1859 May 26, 1924) was a cellist, conductor and composer of light opera. His Cello Concerto is a new asset to Virgin Classics catalogue. Quite rarely recorded, it isnt today available on either VCs or EMI Classics catalogue - Julian Lloyd Webbers recording with Charles Mackerras and the London Symphony Orchestra on EMI isnt available at this date.
