Press Quotes
٭٭٭٭٭ (BBC Music Magazine)
“…utterly delighted to see that Rohan de Saram, one of the living cellists I most admire… Wow, what a great tribute to Crumb. If you don’t have all three of these works (I didn’t) already, this is an indispensable CD for you.” (Art Music Lounge)
“Rohan de Saram’s cello virtuosity is thrilling, his musicality impeccable… Even people who don’t normally care for Crumb will want to sample it, as it has wonderfully communicative, recently discovered performances from long ago.” (American Record Guide)
