Synopsis

Album Description

Ross Pople was handpicked at age 23 by Yehudi Menuhin to be principal solo cellist of the Menuhin Festival Orchestra, where his ability was given free expression touring the world. At 26, Pople was invited by Sir Colin Davis and Pierre Boulez to be principal cellist of the BBC Symphony Orchestra, the youngest ever in the history of the orchestra. Pople?s numerous recordings for Hyperion and ASV have attracted positive reviews, and he has been seen and heard often on the BBC. Malcolm Allison studied the violin and viola at the Yehudi Menuhin School with Margaret Norris and at the Guildhall School of Music with David Takend, winning the Maurice Warshaw Prize and the Dorothy Adams String Quartet Prize in 1994. He records and performs with the Kreutzer Quartet.
