Daniil Shafran ventured outside Russia rarely during his long career, but became a cult figure to his admirers. His recorded legacy is rich, as demonstrated by this compilation, chosen by the artist's devoted admirer, Steven Isserlis. Shafran's premiere recording of the 2nd Kabalevsky Concerto,of which he was the dedicatee, is coupled with a live performance of Prokofiev's Sinfonia Concertante, a legendary performance here issued for the first time on CD. An attractive, but rarely heard, suite of 5 Pieces written for Shafran by the Georgian composer Tsintsadze complete this collection by one of the great cellists of the 20th century
Kabalevsky: Cello Concerto No. 2, Op. 77
Prokofiev: Sinfonia Concertante in E minor for cello & orchestra, Op. 125
Tsintsadze: Five Pieces on Folk Themes for cello and piano

In her second compact disc, released by Gega New, the cellist Kalina Krusteva has included two magnificent concertos giving testimony to her performing mastership. For they require not only virtuosity, free from any type of technical impediments, but also a very specific emotionality, along with experience in the dramaturgy, which is very specific for both the concertos by Schumann and Elgar. Kalina Krusteva's recording speaks eloquently of her brilliant creative development (a pupil of the Prof. Pancho Vladigerov State Academy of Music in Sofia, graduate of the Royal Academy of Music - London, holder of diplomas from master classes for cellists given by Misha Mayski, Robert Cohen, Steven Isserlis, etc.) |

The cello concertos of Elgar and Myaskovsky written in 1919 and 1944 respectively, engender few similarities these days but make an exciting coupling due not only to the disparate nature of the composers’ lives and situations, but also to the common ground they tread; both composers were in their early sixties when writing their main work for the instrument.
A stunning performance by Jamie Walton, accompanied by the magnificent Philharmonia Orchestra.
Jamie has enjoyed success as a rising international soloist and has given concerts in some of the most prestigious concert halls in the world. He appears regularly at the Wigmore Hall and Symphony Hall, Birmingham and has performed with leading orchestras such as the Vienna Chamber Orchestra and the Philharmonia Orchestra. |

Casken's lyrical Cello Concerto is coupled with Maharal Dreaming, a vivid orchestral fantasy derived from his opera Golem; the glittering showpiece for strings, Darting the Skiff; and the theatrical and exuberant Vaganza, with its echoes of Petrushka.
These recordings were originally released on Collins Classics.
Reissued with funding from Arts Council England.
Casken's acerbic musical architecture is ideal for this ensemble; an ensemble whose smoothness of sound in the Mahlerian figures of Darting the Skiff is balanced by their precise articulation of Vaganza and subdued sonority in Maharal Dreaming. With Schiff's cool, mellifluous account of the Cello Concerto at its centre, this Casken retrospective is a must for any new music devotee.The Independent on Sunday |
