Spotlight on the Cellos 

The Alpine landscape stretches out before you. Under a clear sky, a breeze sighs through the leaves. But suddenly a storm blows over the mountains and a force of nature breaks loose: the world-famous overture to Gioachino Rossino's Guillaume Tell . The cellists of the Residentie Orkest takes you to various Spanish regions, each of which has something to say about love in its own way in 6 Canciones populares Españolas .

Stormy love makes way for a tribute to a deceased friend. The Requiem by Bohemian cellist David Popper. His work allows the unique sound and style of the instrument to come forward like no other. The soul lives on in the sad, yet breathtaking strokes of the bow in this piece.
