"...lovely stuff, full of warmth and intensity. Moskovitz and his crew are alert to the lyricism and have put together an attractive program giving us a picture of a composer of surprising worth."—American Record Guide

This compact disc of music by the 19th century Italian cello virtuoso Alfredo Piatti, features concert pieces for cello and piano, two cellos, two cellos and piano, and two songs for voice, cello and piano. The music, composed at every major stage of Piatti's career, ranges from virtuosic to elegiac, captures his warm melodic style and reflects his lifelong exploration of the cello's potential.
