Magnard Widor Koechlin Mats Lidström, Bengt Forsberg - French Cello Music
Review by Daniele Quartu
French Cello Music is an exquisite collection of classical pieces performed by cellist Mats Lidström and pianist Bengt Forsberg. The album features compositions by French composers Albéric Magnard, Charles-Marie Widor, and Charles Koechlin, each with their own unique style and flair.
Lidström's virtuosic cello playing is a highlight throughout the album, with his rich tone and expressive phrasing perfectly capturing the emotion and beauty of each piece. Meanwhile, Forsberg's sensitive and nuanced piano accompaniment provides the perfect complement to Lidström's playing, creating a truly magical musical experience.
Standout tracks include Magnard's Sonata for Cello and Piano, which showcases Lidström's technical prowess and emotional depth, and Koechlin's Chant funèbre à la mémoire des jeunes femmes défuntes, a hauntingly beautiful piece that highlights the duo's ability to evoke powerful emotions through music.
