Notes & Reviews:

"There are several reasons why I am enthusiastic about the project 'Cello Fiesta!' First, we are dealing here with exceptional talent. Both, Marie-Elisabeth Hecker and Grigori Kharadze, are musicians who will secure the future of the new generation of cellists. Second, we have tried to give this CD a (cello) "face" - with a repertoire that spans the centuries and reflects the full range of historical styles. It really is a "fiesta". It is a fiesta for the cello as an instrument, as a voice whose depth and range of colour enrich our lives. Third, these recordings are infused with the personality of Kremeratica Baltica, which celebrated its tenth anniversary in 2007." -Gidon Kremer
