Playing the viola means making it sing – making myself sing” declares Gérard Caussé, who makes this instrument, with it’s special voice – deep, nostalgic and melancholy – sing like no one else does. This box set, which brings together an incredibly wide repertoire, bears witness to the remarkable career that has made Caussé a viola legend. – 2018 marks Caussé’s 70th anniversary. This box highlights the wide range of the viola repertoire he recorded from 1979 to 2010 surrounded by first class artists. – It includes Quintets by Mendelssohn with Quatuor Viotti which are here released for the first time on CD. – All wallets are based on original album covers. – The booklet includes an essay written by Gérard Caussé in 2018.
