Cello Concertos

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Mieczysław Weinberg & Nicolas Altstaedt & Deutsches Symphonie‐Orchester Berlin & Michał Nesterowicz

Cello Concertos are two concertos for cello and orchestra by Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich, composed in 1959 and 1966. They exemplify Shostakovich's late tonal language, juxtaposing intense, often terse solo writing with sombre orchestral textures and abrupt shifts in mood, and they occupy a notable place in his late-career output reflecting personal and artistic circumstances of the time.
