Herbert: Cello Concertos Nos. 1, 2 & Irish Rhapsody / Kosower, Falletta, Ulster Orchestra

Listen to the Naxos Podcast to learn more about this release

Irish-born Victor Herbert was one of the most celebrated names in American music in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A cellist, conductor, and composer of light operas, he was also a recording artist. His two cello concertos are full of gracious melodies, the D major having a song-like slow movement and a spirited polonaise finale that earned praise at its 1885 premiĆØre in Stuttgart. The E minor concerto, scored for a large orchestra, is more tightly constructed then the first and it was hearing this work that inspired Herbert’s superior at the National Conservatory in New York, AntonĆ­n DvorĆ”k, to write his own great B minor cello concerto.
