Josef Reicha: Concerto for cello

Post by gardano »

One of my all-time favorite recordings is that of the Concerto in G for Cello & Orchestra by Josef Reicha.

It's on the album "Aus Schlössern & Residenzen: Oettingen-Wallerstein". The cellist is Anner Bijlsma, and his performance is totally amazing! The piece is amazing too, very operatic, yet filled with nice "celloisms": high register passages, harmonics... and a surprise ending in pizzicato.

any pointers?

Thanks!
