The new CD with music by Miklós Rózsa will be released on April 4, 2025!

Sinfonia concertante · Rhapsody for cello and orchestra · Notturno ungherese

Harriet Krijgh, cello
Nikita Boriso-Glebsky, violin
Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie Rheinland-Pfalz
Gregor Bühl, conductor

Label: cappricio

This release explores the rarely performed or recorded concert music of Miklós Rózsa (famous for his sound track of Ben Hur ), coupling his Rhapsody for Cello in which the young composer truly found his style, his Notturno Ungherese (“a nostalgic night piece, harking back to the memories of my childhood in Hungary”), and the late Sinfonia concertante for violin and cello, a fiendishly difficult violin-cello double concerto that is among Rózsa’s finest, least film-music-like concert works and one of his most underrated. Gregor Piatigorsky and Jascha Heifetz, who instigated its composition, never ended up playing it, but Harriet Krijgh and Nikita Boriso-Glebsky certainly do.
