Re: Jewish Cello Masterpieces

[dchevan <dchevan...>]

I've been meaning to mention an album that a friend gave me recently
entitled,  Chants Juifs pour violoncelle et piano featuring Sonia
Wieder-Atherton on cello and Daria Hovora on piano.  They have an
interesting approach to interpreting and arranging several traditional
pieces.    They also perform five works by Ernest Bloch.

A good collection and I recommend it.
