Cellist Martin Rummel and pianist Philippe Raskin present a moving tribute to the legendary Gregor Piatigorsky with this album of Russian masterpieces. Including the intense and dynamic Sonatas for Violoncello and Piano by Dmitry Shostakovich and Sergei Prokofiev, and Edison Denisov’s ingenious Variations on a Theme by Schubert, the recording offers a fresh perspective based on Rummel’s deep admiration for Piatigorsky’s artistry and insight. A compelling journey through the Russian repertoire, this album is a must for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
