Info zu Brahms: Cello Transcriptions

Brahms sah in den Bearbeitungen seiner Werke durch befreundete Musiker ein Zeichen der Wertschätzung und des Respekts. Die vorliegenden Cello-Transkriptionen von Piatti, Klengel und Salter wurden von Brahms ausdrücklich genehmigt.

Torquati und Dillon haben sich bereits mit ihren zwei Schumann-Alben einen Ruf als engagierte Interpreten von Transkriptionen gemacht.
