RASTRELLI CELLO QUARTET
The Rastrelli Cello Quartet was formed in Germany by four Russians, all of whom shared a desire to prove that it is possible to play any style of music on the cello – from Baroque to Rock and all the other styles in between. They certainly appear to have accomplished their goal, as they can sound like a symphony one moment and play ragtime, jazz or even a polka the next. Their repertoire consists entirely of transcriptions of pieces not intended to be performed on the cello. And of course very, very few pieces have been composed for a Cello Quartet, so they, or one of the quartet members, usually the older member of the quartet, does the arranging.
