Oct. 5: Cellist Alban Gerhardt

Welcome to the new 995allclassical.org!  We're hoping that this site is already easier and more fun to use, and we'll continue to develop it in the coming weeks and months.  Feel free to leave comments about what you think about the site as well as everything else we do here at Boston's All Classical station.

I'm really pleased to feature Schumann's Cello Concerto this afternoon in a performance with cellist Alban Gerhardt.  He's a terrific artist, and we were thrilled to have him in the studio a couple of years ago.  He played Bach's Cello Suite No. 6 and Ligeti's Cello Sonata, and you can hear that performance below.  Also, he'll be back in Boston in February, playing with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which we'll bring to you live from Symphony Hall.

And to hear the Bach/Vivaldi Concerto in A minor, BWV 593, listen to The Bach Hour:
