Mendelssohn: Complete music for cello and piano

Richard Lester (cello), Susan Tomes (piano)

CDA66478

This recording presents all of Mendelssohn’s published work for cello and piano, and an unpublished fragment which is recorded here for the first time. These lively graceful works have, like much of his chamber music, been quite unjustly in eclipse since his lifetime, and have only in recent years found their way into the popular repertoire.
