cello
The great evolution of musical language between the 19th and 20th centuries
Music by: G. Puccini – M. Weinberg – E. Grieg
Danilo Squitieri’s cello gives voice to Mieczysław Weinberg, a friend of Shostakovich, persecuted and long forgotten. Rediscovered also thanks to Jacqueline du Pré, one of the most intense voices of 20th-century Russian music shines again, offering a journey through suffering, memory, and musical redemption.
