British Solo Cello Music is an album by Steven Isserlis, released in 2021. The album is a classical CD.
If Britten’s Cello Suite No 3 is the undisputed masterpiece here, the other works are no less deserving of attention, Frank Merrick’s ‘Suite in the eighteenth-century style’ being a particular delight. As ever, Steven Isserlis’s booklet notes offer fascinatingly personal perspectives on the composers and their music.
