Philip Higham’s debut album of Britten’s three Cello Suites, released in 2013, drew high praise from BBC Music Magazine: ‘His formidable mastery is lightly worn, and he exudes an invigorating sense of freedom, though not a single technical imperfection mars this recording’. His interpretations continue to mature in their emotional depth and the poetic beauty of the trio of works Britten wrote for and dedicated to Mstislav Rostropovich.
