Andreas Brantelid (cello)

Danish National Radio Symphony Orchestra, ichael Schønwandt

“The young Danish cellist Andreas Brantelid...makes his impressive recording debut with this combination of three classic 19th-century concertos. His playing - warm and supple of tone - has the lyrical allure, lithe technique and discreet dramatic flair to give this familiar music a fresh impetus, while his orchestral compatriots add a thoroughly integrated range of complementary colours that show a sympathetic response both to the soloist and to the music.” The Telegraph, 21st June 2008
