Ulrich Schmid plays the solo part with immaculate intonation, exemplary phrasing and artistic refinement – an outstanding interpretation offering deep insights into the late romantic world of expression.

Hebrew spirit and fun with the cello.
The special recording technique of Dabringhaus and Grimm makes this recording a perfect experience in sound.
