About

These works are both sweepingly romantic and an acid test for any player’s technical finesse. Apart from the popular First Concerto and the ubiquitous “Swan”, Saint-Saëns composed a Second Cello Concerto in addition to  several other shorter works for Cello and orchestra, most of which are seldom heard in performance.

Stunning performances from the young start cellist, Johannes Moser.

“Winner of the 12th Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 2002, Johannes Moser is one of the finest among
the astonishing gallery of young virtuoso cellists…..French conductor Fabrice Bollon proves the most
sympathetic accompanist, not just in the concertos but also in the sequence of genre pieces that make up the
Suite, and in the three shorter items culminating in Le Cygne, exquisitely played by Moser with intensity but no
exaggeration.”
Gramophone, January 2009
