Rococo Cello Variations Jeremy Findlay (cello), Per Rundberg (piano)

Beethoven, a young charmer at the time, submitted to the art of rococo variations on Mozart arias that were in vogue. Martinů took over this playful approach with Rossini then adapted it to folk song whilst preserving the freshness, its hidden gravity and its original authenticity. Jiří Gemrot pastiches Beethoven with humour then, like a real heir of Martinů, pays tribute to Dvořák.
