Parlor pieces
Review by Kyle P. on 14 Feb 2019 review stating Parlor pieces Piatti was one of the great historical cellists. Lizst bought him a cello and Mendelssohn intended to write him a concerto.
His reviews point out qualities like purity of tone, sublime cantabile Phrasing, astonishing delicacy, and faultless intonation.
He composed these caprices not only as technical studies. He performed them at his own concerts. They achieve a well desired balance of melody and technical challenge.
Pierre Fouriner’s fingerings are mostly safe and always meaty.
