Sitt and Rubinstein - music for the viola
ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout plays works for viola by Hans Sitt and Anton Rubinstein with pianist Chiao-Ying Chang at St David's Hall, Cardiff.
Recorded earlier this year in St David's Hall, in the final concert in this series of recitals from Cardiff, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout plays romantic works for viola written by Hans Sitt and Anton Rubinstein, with pianist Chiao-Ying Chang. Sitt's Albumblätter or Album Leaves are full of charm, following in the pianistic tradition of character pieces. The viola sonata in F minor which dates from 1855, although Rubinstein revisited the work some 30 years later, is a work that celebrates both the range and the glorious singing quality of the viola.
