This CD features lyrical music for cello and piano from the first half of the 20th century. The pianist in this CD is Fabio Gardenal, whom I've known since our adolescence in São Paulo and with whom I've played many recitals over the years. Fabio is an assistant professor of piano at New York University. To find out more about Fabio, click here.
The CD is available for sale from CD Baby both as a physical CD and as a download.
