Following the great success
of their recording of the complete cello and fortepiano works
by Beethoven,
cellist Paul Pulford and pianist Boyd McDonald's new Brahms recording
features a stunning original 1848 fortepiano by J.B. Streicher
(builder of Brahm's own instrument), paired with a beautiful 1827
Thomas Dodd cello.
"Despite the many big-name cellists
who recorded this music, Pulford and McDonald have completely
blown the competition out of the water." Continuo
