Description:

The 18th century orchestra of the "post-Brüchen era"! Roel Dieltiens plays C.P.E. Bach! The journey of music creation of the 18th century orchestra, a pioneer of period orchestras that entered the "Post-Brüchen Era". For its fourth recording, the orchestra presents a collection of C.P.E. Bach's cello concertos with the renowned Belgian cellist Roel Dieltiens. Roel Dieltiens is an authority on both modern and baroque cello, and is well known for his numerous recordings with the Ensemble Explorations, which he founded, as well as his work with Brüchen, Herreweghe, de Leeuw, and Pons. In the 18th century, the "cello concerto" was still a new genre, and these cello concertos by C.P.E. Bach (1898-1893), the most successful of J.S. Bach's sons, are still considered to be the most important works of their generation. s these cello concertos (1750-1753) were created before Boccherini and Haydn wrote their cello concertos. The 18th century orchestral sound established by Bruchen and the eloquent cello of Dieltiens weave a fascinating and varied story.Also visiting the recording session and contributing a commentary essay is Anna Enquist, a popular Dutch novelist who was also a longtime friend of Bruggen's.
