Compelling young Franco-German cellist Nicolas Altstaedt performs Haydn’s dazzling first concerto, composed for the Eszterházy’s court’s great cellist Anton Kraft, and conducts his darkly dynamic Symphony No. 49 in F minor, nicknamed ‘La Passione’. Eszterházy lies in what is now Hungary, whose native music is evoked by Sándor Veress’s Transylvanian Dances and his virtuoso sonata for solo cello.
