About this product
Schumann's love of the cello, which developed when he learned the instrument as a young man, is expressed most fully in his 'Cello Concerto in A minor.' It is a work marked by freshness of spirit and singing lyricism and stands as a rich example of mid-19th-century Romanticism. The series of characterful small pieces that include 'Funf Stucke i'm Volkston' reveals Schumann's joy in the cello's unique lyrical capabilities. The 'Drei Romanzen' and the 'Intermezzo' from the 'F-A-E Sonata' are presented here in new arrangements for cello and piano by Gabriel Schwabe. Gabriel Schwabe has established himself among the leading cellists of his generation. He is a laureate of numerous national and international competitions, including the Grand Prix Emanuel Feuermann and the Concours Rostropovich in Paris. As a soloist he has worked with orchestras such as the Philharmonia Orchestra, the NDR Radiophilharmonie, the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, the Malmo and Norrkoping Symphony Orchestras and the Royal Northern Sinfonia. He plays a rare Italian instrument made in Brescia (c. 1600).

![Gabriel Schwabe - Tchaikovsky: Rococo Variations; Works for Cello & Orchestra - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/43439c98-0952-42cf-bcb1-dbb4dd74e937.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Tchaikovsky composed the Variations on a Rococo Theme for cellist Wilhelm Fitzenhagen, who re-ordered the variations, infuriating the composer. The cello part for the virtuosic Pezzo capriccioso was also altered by it's dedicatee, Anatoly Brandukov. In the performances heard here, Tchaikovsky's original intentions are restored. To accompany these pieces, Gabriel Schwabe has provided two of his own arrangements - the Canzonetta from the Violin Concerto and Valse sentimentale from the Six Morceaux. The album ends with the second version - never before recorded - of the romantic fantasy overture Romeo and Juliet.
