The album is inspired by the year 1851, the year of \"invention,\" \"exposition,\" and \"creation.\" Schumann's sonata is Violin Sonata No. 2, which Isserlis himself arranged for cello and piano, both of which were written in 1851. It is paired with three smaller pieces that include arrangements of Schumann songs and the Bach\/Gounod \"Ave Maria,\" among others. The centerpiece of the album is an 1851 Erard piano, which won a gold medal at that year's World's Fair in London, played by Canadian-born pianist Connie See. The piano recorded here may have been one of the first instruments exhibited at the exposition. Stephen Isserlis, a two-time Gramophone Award winner, is internationally active as a cellist, writer, and radio program producer.\n\n\n\nIsserlis plays seductively throughout the recital...Prepare to be seduced.\"--\"Gramophone\" magazine\n\n'The music of an angel.
