Denmark has produced quite a few world class cellists and Henrik Brendstrup is among the very best of them. The rave reviews for the earlier releases of Brendstrup (KPT32007 Mendelssohn/Complete Cello Works, KPT32026 Chopin/Works for Cello and Piano and KPT32088 Peter Heise/ Complete Cello Sonatas) include “ Voici un disque tout � fait remarquable….superbe!” from the French DIAPASON which gave Brendstrup’s debut

CD the seal of “ Diapason d’Or ”.

Here with the cello works by Gubaidulina, Brendstrup shows his powerful “contemporary” side. The solo pieces on this CD constitute the only complete collection available presently.
