Solitary Fables

Performers:


Matthias Balzat



Composers:


Ysaye, Ligeti, Crumb, Tang, Lodge, Dusapin




Perhaps a shade less whimsical than its unique cover might suggest, this album launches the recording career of an outstanding young New Zealand cellist.
Matthias Balzat is now primarily based in Europe but continues his strong commitment to regular performances in Aotearoa.
