Only since hearing Sheku Kanneh Mason have I been drawn anywhere near cello music. To be honest, orchestral strings aren't really my thing. I have a particular dislike for violins. That said, I was spellbound by Sheku's cello royal wedding performance .
I've since listened to bits of his no.1 classical album on YouTube but those pieces don't grab me.
Can someone point me to some cello pieces to listen to , and great performances and recordings of said pieces? My first challenge will be finding pieces I like - then which recordings are excellent (vinyl, CD or SACD)
Thanks
