David Geringas and Ian Fountain, both regular guests at Schloss Stolpe, play Chopin and other Polish composers
In addition to the piano, Frédéric Chopin's great love was the human voice and the cello. David Geringas and Ian Fountain, both regular guests at Schloss Stolpe, show how Chopin makes the cello dance and sing. The Canzona op. 56 is also a testimony
to the friendship between David Geringas and the Polish contemporary composer Krzysztof Meyer, which has lasted more than four decades. Johannes Brahms' second cello sonata will bring the evening to a lively and powerful close.
