Cello Solo Yan Levionnois SKU: FON1112010 Barcode: 0884654394620 TBC £TBC Genre: Classical Label: Fondamenta Released Date: 7th October 2013 Buying Format: CD Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info There has always been something particularly elegant about French cellists, and older generations of sophisticated players such as Alain Meunier have given way to similarly stylish performers like Gastinel and Capuçon. Now the 22-year-old Yan Levionnois brings a cool maturity to a collection of challenging cello works, written from the 1950s on. The Ibert in particular showcases the sort of sensitive playing that engages the listener in the pleasure of freely shared experience. In fact, there is an appealing Frenchness that pervades all these performances but which is not instrusive for all that – in the Ibert there is an inescapable sense that Levionnois is playing music that is in his blood; to the Prokofiev he brings a flavour of cosmopolitan glamour that evokes more of the Paris in which the composer lived in the 1930s than the dour Russia of 1953 in which it was written; and the Crumb has a open simplicity that is an appropriate match for its own directness and lack of Crumb’s unusual techniques. It is also a welcome addition to have a young performer starting their recording career playing a fine modern cello rather than an antique Italian or French instrument. In Levionnois’s case, it brings a freshness to the sound, further enhancing the straightforward sincerity that makes this disc so captivating. -Caroline Gill Artist Yan Levionnois Genre Classical Label Fondamenta Buying Options CD Format CD Condition New Country UK Track Listings Ghirlarzana Sonata for Cello Suite No. 2 Klingende Buchstaben Dolmen Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Classical View Product Quick View Mozart -MPO/Kondrashin Sinfonia Concertante Classical | Speakers Corner / Decca | 180g, 1LP Released 17th September 2006 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mozart -MPO/Kondrashin Sinfonia Concertante £34.00 Genre: Classical Label: Speakers Corner / Decca SKU: SXL6088 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th September 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jess Gillam Time Classical | Decca | 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released 25th September 2020 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jess Gillam Time £24.00 Genre: Classical Label: Decca SKU: 4851125 Formats: 2LP, Coloured Vinyl, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 25th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dvorak-VPO/Istvan Kertesz Symphony No 5 in E minor Op.95 (from the New World) Classical | Speakers Corner / Decca | 180g, 1LP Released 17th September 2006 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dvorak-VPO/Istvan Kertesz Symphony No 5 in E minor Op.95 (from the New World) £34.00 Genre: Classical Label: Speakers Corner / Decca SKU: SXL2289 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th September 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Horizon Forbidden West Horizon Forbidden West – Original Soundtrack Classical | Sony Masterworks | 2LP, 6LP, Box Set Released 11th August 2023 £36.00 - £172.00 Select options Horizon Forbidden West Horizon Forbidden West – Original Soundtrack £36.00 - £172.00 Genre: Classical Label: Sony Masterworks Formats: 2LP, 6LP, Box Set Released Date: 11th August 2023 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Alexander Gibson - Gounod Faust – Ballet Music / Bizet: Carmen – Suite Classical | Analogue Productions | 180g, 1LP Released 11th March 2016 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alexander Gibson - Gounod Faust – Ballet Music / Bizet: Carmen – Suite £45.00 Genre: Classical Label: Analogue Productions SKU: AAPC2449 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th March 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nikolaus Harnoncourt Concentus Musicus Wien Bach: The Brandenburg Concertos Classical | Warner Classics | 180g, 2LP Released 11th June 2021 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nikolaus Harnoncourt Concentus Musicus Wien Bach: The Brandenburg Concertos £23.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 0190295020309 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 11th June 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jóhann Jóhannsson Last and First Men (Re-Issue) Classical | Deutsche Grammophon | 2LP Released 20th August 2021 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jóhann Jóhannsson Last and First Men (Re-Issue) £30.00 Genre: Classical Label: Deutsche Grammophon SKU: 94860473 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 20th August 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Berliner Philharmoniker, Gundula Janowitz Herbert R.
