The 12 Cellists of the Berliner Philharmoniker are celebrating their fiftieth anniversary this autumn! Formed rather by chance after having enjoyed performing a piece by Klengel, the ensemble became quickly famous thanks to its witty transcriptions of classical pieces, stimulation of a dedicated contemporary repertoire for cello ensemble, and forays into pop music. This eclectic collection of the fifty best titles recorded for EMI spans from baroque to contemporary and bossa nova to film music.
