Steven Isserlis (cello) City of London Sinfonia, Richard Hickox “Two of the most important British cello-orchestra works in very good but not quite top-rank performances. Speeds in the Britten are a little slow and Isserlis's cello is sometimes lost in orchestra detail, but a recommendable account of Bridge's Oration.” BBC Music Magazine, January 2008 *** | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
