Henriette Hilda Bosmans

[Big David]

BBC Radio 3 is featuring Bosmans as their composer of the week.  One of the pieces is her cello concerto no. 2.  I was really impressed with this.  Does anyone know where I can get a CD of this work  There doesn't seem to be one available in the UK.

Bosmans is a great composer with a fascinating history. She wrote quite a few pieces for cello, mostly for her then partner, Frieda Belinfante, who also premiered the second cello concerto.

It doesn't contain the piece you're looking for, but I highly recommend this CD, by cellist Doris Hochscheid and pianist Frans van Ruth. Nuit calme is especially gorgeous. Another work to give a listen is her string quartet. There's a lovely, very recent recording by the Belinfante Quartet on Spotify.
