About

Recently appointed chief conductor of the string orchestra of the Accademia di Santa Cecilia, Luigi Piovano has put together a dramatic programme for their CD debut on Eloquentia.

He has arranged Schubert's 'Arpeggione' Sonata for piccolo cello solo 5-string, to get as close as possible to the original instrument and to allow execution in the original octaves. The addition of orchestra gives a new dimension to the work and seems a natural progression.

The string quartet 'Death & the Maiden' is given here in Mahler's overwhelming orchestral version of 1896.
