Description: Fanciers of this instrument will certainly enjoy the Romantic Russian pieces by Gliere and the six-movement 1971 solo sonata by Weinberg and they'll be surprised by the appearance of one of the Casadesus' family's fake 18th century "rediscoveries", this one a viola concerto supposedly by Johann Christian Bach and whose provenance makes any kind of a transcription impossible to call "inauthentic"! Joel Quarrington (double bass), Andrew Burashko (piano).
