Digital Booklet
|
“these are affectionate performances, Gledhill making the most of Squire’s signature left-hand slides, throwing off the occasional fireworks (as in the miniature Hungarian rhapsody Tzig-Tzig) with delightful insouciance and strumming the pizzicato final chords of the Humoresque with a playful wink. Imai is a responsive partner and the pair have an unforced instinct for the ebb and flow of the slower pieces. In short, there’s a lot of enjoyment to be had here—and not just for cellists. “
- Richard Bratby, Gramophone
William Henry Squire was Britain’s leading cellist from the late 1890s to the late 1920s and was an important figure in the early recording era. Collected here are some of his delightful short pieces for cello, often written with specific audiences in mind, including his signature piece, Serenade, Op. 14 and his tribute to Dvořák Chansonnette, Op. 22. Performed by cellist Oliver Gledhill and pianist Tadashi Imai, five of the twenty pieces in this collection are receiving their first recordings.
