The legendary Pablo Casals declared that in Schumann’s deeply poetic and technically demanding Cello Concerto “the music is sublime.” Joshua Roman performs it with an absolute commitment to communicating the essence of the music. George Hanson leads Beethoven’s instantly recognizable Fifth, which rises from its famous four-note motif, sweeping you along its dramatic path from darkness into the light.
