Despite what the link in my signature may suggest, I've always had a soft spot for the cello, but have struggled to find decent recorded music including this instrument. It always seems to me that the cello is too far back in the mix and drowned out by the rest of the instruments. 2Cello's certainly didn't do it for me, so what suggestions do you have, outside of the (the irreplaceable) Jacqueline du Pré, Natalie Klein, Yo Yo Ma or even Rena Jones? Solo or simple accompanied material would be preferred to full orchestrations...
I subscribe to CalmRadio and amongst their offerings, I have their dedicated cello and Yo Yo Ma channels saved, but as I rarely have either playing for long periods, when I do, I'm often disappointed with the variety and quality of what both plays...
Suggestions and recommendations gratefully received
