Naxos presents Andante Cantabile, an immediately appealing and generously filled disc, which boasts some of the most lyrical music ever written for cello and orchestra. Drawn from concertos and individual pieces of music, this programme ranges from the refined eighteenth century elegance of Carl Stamitz and Haydn to the mighty Romanticism of Elgar and Dvorak.
