Paul Tortelier, Württembergisches Kammerorchester Heilbronn & Jörg Faerber - Haydn: Cello Concertos (2026)

We continue our exploration of Paul Tortelier’s discography with these highlights of the repertoire: Haydn’s cello concertos, in this recording conducted by Jörg Faerber. It is the perfect setting for the warm tone of Tortelier’s cello, which also shines in the highly organic cadenzas - at once inventive and daring, yet entirely in keeping with the spirit of the original works.
