“His music is poetry – few other composers are as capable of triggering such powerful associations in me as Robert Schumann” writes Kian Soltani in his own liner notes for his much-anticipated, all-Schumann release. Together with Camerata Salzburg, the young cellist – described by Gramophone as “sheer perfection“ – simultaneous plays and conducts the monumental Cello Concerto, as well as orchestrated songs. Additionally, the album includes a smattering of Soltani’s most cherished lieder transcriptions, accompanied by pianist Julien Quentin.
