After J. S. Bach's solo cello suites in the early 18th century, the genre experienced a fallow period until Zoltán Kodály set the pace with a monumental sonata for solo cello in 1915. It inspired a variety of similar works, but Kodály's 30-minute sonata still stands "like Mount Everest", to quote Daniel Müller-Schott, the soloist on this recording.

His programme also includes music by Proko ev, Hindemith, Henze, Crumb and Casals, and features a work of his own for the rst time: Cadenza continues the tradition of compositions that other cellists have always added to their recital programmes.
