Agree with your comments with both works. L is a rather great addition to the cello & piano recital repertoire. However the cello concerto really was very disappointing. There was absolutely no sense of direction in the music. The rhythm was too "square" and the rising sevenths got a bit tedious by the end. I felt that the faster passages were there because the composer felt the soloist needed something fast to show off rather than something the music demanded.
