Iconic French cellist, Anne Gastinel, has
chosen for her next recording project one of
the most exciting works in the history of music:
Beethoven's Triple Concerto. The work
brings together three soloists in a single
work that sits somewhere between chamber
music, concerto and symphony... bringing to
life a particularly vibrant approach to musical
exchange. The 'Triple' is a flagship, multidimensional
work, whose romantic impetus
still resonates today.
From her long-term musical collaborator,
Nicholas Angelich, to the great conductor,
Paavo Järvi, via more recent 'love at first
sight' musical encounters with Gil Shaham
and Andreas Ottensamer, Anne Gastinel is
surrounded by a wish-list of musical collaborators
for this all-Beethoven programme. In
addition, the more understated Trio Op.11
for clarinet, cello and piano, provides a
touching complement to the monumental
concerto.
In both works, each performer is energised
and driven by the ultimate search for balance,
breath and musical harmony, particularly
Anne Gastinel, whose cello provides
the pitch and impetus for each phase of the
'Triple'.
