About

The long-awaited debut recording by this stunning young cellist who was the joint-winner of The Landor Competition in 2007. Well-known for his wide-ranging musical interests (which include collaborations with Indian musicians and extensive improvisations on folksongs from around the world), James Barralet tackles one of the pinnacles of the solo cello range in the Kodaly Sonata, giving a coruscating performance of this early twentieth-century masterpiece.

He follows it with the premier recording of the Roxburgh Partita which he has frequently played in concert and records it with the composer’s blessing here.

Finally, a profound performance of the Third Suite by
Britten, which includes as an addendum a first recording of Britten’s own alternative working of the first movement.

For lovers of the cello, of twentieth century music or just of young British artists, this is a debut recording to savour.
