  • Description

    This is the premiere recording of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra under their new artistic director Vasily Petrenko. Vasily Petrenko is renowned as a star conductor of the younger generation and one of the foremost interpreters of Shostakovich's symphonies. Truls Mørk is one of the most respected and prestigious cellists playing today, forged by a reputation of fierce intensity and grace in performances throughout the world. A committed performer of contemporary music, Mørk gave the UK premiere of Rautavaara's cello concerto Towards the Horizon and whose recording on Ondine won both the Gramophone and ICMA Awards. Shostakovich's cello concertos were written for Mstislav Rostropovich during the 50s and 60s. Besides dashing virtuosity, the concertos also include substantial symphonic elements.
