Sitt and Rubinstein - music for the viola

大象传媒 New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout plays works for viola by Hans Sitt and Anton Rubinstein with pianist Chiao-Ying Chang at St David's Hall, Cardiff.

Recorded earlier this year in St David's Hall, in the final concert in this series of recitals from Cardiff, 大象传媒 New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout plays romantic works for viola written by Hans Sitt and Anton Rubinstein, with pianist Chiao-Ying Chang. Sitt's Albumbl盲tter or Album Leaves are full of charm, following in the pianistic tradition of character pieces. The viola sonata in F minor which dates from 1855, although Rubinstein revisited the work some 30 years later, is a work that celebrates both the range and the glorious singing quality of the viola.
