A classy, melodious set of cello duets composed by Jacques Offenbach that wonderfully feature the orchestra's most emotional instrument, with which these cellists, Christopher and Drummond, have stepped up to the plate and knocked a home run.

OFFENBACH CELLO DUETS
Opus 49, #1-6 & Opus 50, #1-3
THE GIFT OF MELODY
PERFORMED BY PAUL CHRISTOPHER AND RUTH DRUMMOND

ABOUT THIS CD________________________________________________________
This CD marks the first known recording of these Offenbach opus numbers. One would not expect to hear cello duets from this composer. These cello duet numbers were composed more than 124 years ago.
This recording's memorable sound of a small-room performance was achieved by applying the "3 Second Theater" choice provided in the digital sound engineering software, among other technological tweaks in the mastering/mixing software.
ABOUT THE COMPOSER, JACQUES OFFENBACH (1819-1880)________________________
Jacques Offenbach, son of a German cantor, is known as the father of French Operetta, most notably for the tune "Can Can" from his Orpheus in the Underworld. Less known is that he was a child virtuoso cellist.
