Productomschrijving

Bohemian cellist David Popper (1843-1913) was unquestionably the greatest cellist of the end of the nineteenth century. At the age of twenty, after completing his studies at the Prague Conservatory, he embarked upon his solo concert career and toured throughout Europe to universal acclaim. Popper also achieved success in chamber music - including many performances with Brahms - and as solo cellist of the Royal Opera Orchestra in Vienna. As a composer except for a string quartet, an orchestral march and a few concertos, fantasia on various national themes, sixty-five etudes, many transcriptions and innumerable short character pieces - most of them highly virtuosic - for cello with piano or orchestra. These were featured on so many concert programs during Popper's lifetime that George Bernard Shaw christened him "the inevitable Popper." The Scottish Fantasy dates from 1900 and is dedicated to Franklin Peterson, an organist and music teacher whom Popp befriended during one of his concert tours to Edinburgh. Although written only a few years after his famous Hungarian Rhapsody Popper pushes the Fantasy's chromaticism much farther - perhaps he was amusing himself by seeing what he could get away with! In its original version the fantasy had sections where Popper''s inspiration seemed to falter so to maintain the music's flow I have made some judicious cuts and a few other changes.
