Munchener Ko/Poltera - Joseph Haydn: Cello Concertos in C & D; Paul Hindemith: Trauermusik

Joseph Haydn once remarked: �I was not a magician on any instrument, but I knew the power and effect of all of them.� This knowledge he used to good effect in his cello concertos, composed some twenty years apart for two different cellists in �his� orchestra at the court of Prince Esterhazy. Both works are firmly established in the concert repertoire, but this has not always been the case.
