About

Julius Röntgen grew up in Leipzig and left for Amsterdam in 1878. Although he was to remain in the Netherlands for the rest of his life, he never lost touch with his German origins. Praised by Liszt, Brahms and Clara Schumann, to name a few, his compositions are attractive and reveal a big hearted personality. Even in the works shot through with despair, there always remains a trace of hope and joy in life. His orchestrations are light, supple and transparent and he creates long melodic lines that return in various guise. These in themselves create differing moods. His three cello concertos recorded here are typical of the composer’s compositions.
