An adventurous mind
6th First Night Subscription Concert
Works by Haydn and Boccherini
The English music magazine ›Strings‹ calls him an ›original‹. And deservedly so! As a performer, he combines outgoing flamboyance with delightful unpredictability. He is bursting with ideas and this is reflected in his interpretations and his repertoire. Cellist and author Isserlis’ ties with the Kammerphilharmonie go back a long way and are also documented by a CD and DVD recording from Bremen’s Bunker Valentin of Schumann’s cello concertos under the baton of Christoph Eschenbach. In 2016, they will meet up again – with a highly remarkable programme in which Isserlis will perform two concerts featuring four different cello concertos. The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen will provide the ›accompanying programme‹ without a conductor under the reliable direction of concertmaster Florian Donderer.
