Elgar: Cello Concerto / Weilerstein · Barenboim · Berliner Philharmoniker

Mendelssohn’s overture starts with four captivating chords, then wham!—the strings take off. Alisa Weilerstein, “the most outstanding cellist to emerge in America since Yo-Yo Ma,” (Classical Voice North America) plays Elgar’s concerto, written in the aftermath of World War I. Rimsky-Korsakov’s showpiece inspired by the tales of One Thousand and One Nights whirls with colossal and dazzling orchestral forces.
