CELLO CONCERTO IN C MAJOR, OP. 37
Wen-Sinn Yang, violoncello
National Symphony Orchestra of Taiwan
Shao-Chia Lü, conductor
The cellist Wen-Sinn Yang and the conductor
Shao-Chia Lü live and work in Germany.
Both were trained at important music academies
in Berlin and Vienna. During the 2016/17
season, Wen-Sinn Yang was invited to perform several
concerts as artist in residence with the Taipei
National Symphony Orchestra. The performances
of three concertos in June 2017 were so enthusiastically
received that it was decided to release
them as live recordings. The wonderful acoustics
of the National Concert Hall in Taipei and the amicable
dialogue between soloist and conductor
have thus been preserved on this CD.
