`Cantabile'
(RCA Red Seal)
Sol Gabetta brings a selection of ``cantabile'' opera arias and songs. The Prague Philharmic Orchestra, led by conductor Charles Olivieri-Munroe, accompanies the Argentinean cellist.The CD includes romantic classics like Gounod's ``Je Veux Vivre'' and Offenbach's ``O Mon Cher Amant.''
Gabetta allows the cello to sing rich, mellifluous tunes, expressing all the subtle quivers of the human voice. The musician often says ``I dance with my cello,'' of course not literally, but one can almost see the cello waltz to the music in her rendition of Faure's ``Pavane''
The bouncy bonus track, ``Figaro's Aria'' by Rossini, features pianist Mihaela Ursuleasa.
