Born in Shreveport, Louisiana, young American cellist John-Henry Crawfordhas been praised for his “polished charisma” and “singing sound” by the Philadelphia Inquirer. He recently released an album titled "Dialogo" on the Orchid Classics label. Crawford writes in the notes, “This program explores several different modes of a concept that is vital to the fabric of our lives, our relationships, and even the progress of our society as a whole — dialogue.
Listen in as I talk with John-Henry about his background and the repertoire he chose for this release, works by Brahms, Ligeti and Shostakovich.
Yours in good music,
Mike Goldberg Classical Host, VPM Music
