Richard Harwood, cello
& Christoph Berner, piano
Richard Harwood, ‘probably the greatest young cello talent since Jacqueline du Pré’ (The Strad) is accompanied by Austrian Pianist Christoph Berner, recognized as one of the leading pianists of his generation, in a programme of works by Beethoven, Shostakovich and Bridge. Harwood and Berner were the first performers in the ACF London’s New Artists Series and have both since then made international careers. Berner has received numerous international prizes and performed at leading concert venues around the world. He released his first solo CD in 1999 which was dedicated to the piano works of Robert Schumann. His latest release features Mozart’s final piano work.
