In the spring of 2019, Christoph Croise scored a breakthrough with his critically acclaimed recording of Haydn's Cello Concertos. With The Russian Album, he turns his attention to two towering 20th century masterpieces, Sergei Rachmaninoff's early, eloquent and emotional Sonata for Cello and Piano, Op. 19, and Dmitri Shostakovich's D minor Sonata for Cello and Piano Op. 40. The latter work's finale featured what would become the composer's signature style of caricature and irony that proved too provocative to the Stalinist regime. Croise also offers two InchencoresInch- his own transcriptions of the March from Sergei Prokofiev's propulsive opera The Love for Three Oranges, and Rodion Shchedrin's flamboyant In the Style of Albeniz- and a bonus track by his compatriot, the Swiss cellist and composer Thomas Demenga, New York Honk, a humorous homage to the Big Apple's cacophonous traffic noises. Incha recording teeming with sparkle and relentless in fizz.Inch (Gramophone)

While Pygmalion, Rameau's emblematic work, reveals the passion of a sculptor in love with his creation, Pierre Iso's Zemide reveals the gentle tyranny of Love, weaving an allegory in which even the fiercest hearts yield to it's power. Like Galatea awakening under Pygmalion's gaze, this vibrant programme of Baroque passion comes to life under the inspired direction of Reinoud Van Mechelen, offering a spectacle where music and sentiment intertwine in dazzling symphonies.
