Composer:
Joseph Haydn

Artist(s):
Gautier Capucon

Conductor:
Daniel Harding

Background: Joseph Haydn composed two cello concertos: the C major around 1765 and the D major in 1783. Long thought lost, the Concerto in C was rediscovered in 1961 by a Czech musicologist. Both of these concertos explore the instrument's possibilities and have extremely virtuoso passages.

Concerto in D major was long attributed to Haydn but today it considered quite probable that the concerto is of unknown authorship.

Born in Chambéry in 1981, Gautier Capuçon started learning the cello at five years of age. He later went to the Conservatoire Supérieur de Paris studying cello and piano, and then at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris. In 1999 he was awarded First Prize in the Maurice Ravel Music Academy competition, Second Prize in the International Cello Competition in New Zealand, and First Prize in the André Navarra Competition in Toulouse. Gautier Capuçon has already become a very popular soloist and appears regularly around the world.

His beautiful sound and masterful technique place him as one of the most promising young cellists in the world.
