Looking forward to playing the beautiful Weinberg Celloconcerto tonight and tomorrow evening with the @orquestaycorortve and wonderful @delyana.lazarova at the Teatro Monumental in Madrid. This is from this morning’s public dress rehearsal with the audio device right next to the camera in the back of the hall - I am pretty impressed that the sound isn’t as bad as I thought. I was hoping to get the radio sound but the pendrive I had given them was too small. Will post something with better audio

Maybe my favorite encore for cello and piano, „Requiebros“ by Gaspar Cassadó: here the first 90 sec when I played it with my good friend, wonderful pianist @stevenosbo beginning of March at a recital in Montreal - always a pleasure playing with him, like this week in Stuttgart (and yesterday in Weingarten) Beethoven’s Tripleconcerto with the @stuttgarter.philharmoniker, @vadim_gluzman and @danettinger (concert in Stuttgart on May 17). If you are interested in watching the full recital, please do

Yesterday I got to perform the amazing Barber celloconcerto with the @nfmwroclawphil and Mario Venzago in one of world’s the greatest halls (@nfmwro ) - unfortunately I didn’t press the record button on my camera, so no moving picture of that piece, but here now the Coda of Edward Elgar’s Celloconcerto which I played at the end of my 5-week trip around the world on Nov 30 with the Xi’An Philharmonic and Daye Lin. Similar to the Dvorak Concerto the Coda should not start too slowly, in this case „

After not having touched my cello for 8 weeks (!) except the few days of teaching @verbierfestival end of July I am now very excited to play my first concert of the season with my dear friend @stevenosbornepiano in Montreal‘s long standing chambermusic series LMMC (ladies morning musical club) - it exists since 133 years! Part of the program will be Schubert‘s scary Arpeggione Sonata - the for me most difficult beginning of any sonata, musically as well as technically, especially if you improvis

After I had somehow survived playing the Volkmann concerto &Cellobiennale in Amsterdam (always scary to play in front of your peers, especially when they contain your old professor 🥴) I got to play a few days later in this unique tent outside of the main venue, the so-called “Yurt” a little surprise concert consisting of the solo sonata by Zoltan Kodaly and the solo suite by Gaspar Cassadó, here the very beginning and the end of this 12 min piece. The Kodaly I have played more than 250 times in

And here a little clip from our rehearsal this morning of the Dvorak Celloconcerto’s infamous cello entrance with the @sinfonialahti and @roderickcoxconductor , concert starts in 45 min... - still having given up with starting that piece upbow (no sforzato nor accent at the beginning...). Oh, and yes, the second theme is even marked pianissimo in Dvorak facsimile 😉 | Alban Gerhardt

Unfortunately I did not get permission to post footage of my rehearsal this morning from our Dvorak concerto with the @sinfonieorchesterwuppertal and @patrickhahnofficial - so here is instead one clip of another rehearsal from November, last movement of this amazing concerto, starting in the middle of the violin solo in the last movement. The Coda is supposed to start „a tempo“ which we are almost achieving here but which makes the double stops a bit harder to play… Using my thumb to be able to

Thank you @orquestaycorortve and @delyana.lazarova for two excellent performances of Prokofiev 5th Symphony, and thanks for letting me join. Here an excerpt from our Weinberg Concerto (which happened before intermission) of the dress rehearsal with the audio device right next to the camera in the back of the hall - I am pretty impressed that the sound isn’t as bad as I thought. This is the cadenza from the Weinberg Celloconcerto which connects the crazy third movement with the rather moody last

Yet another clip from my recital with @stevenosbornepiano from a month ago at the Aldeburgh Festival @brittenpearsarts , the beginning of Britten’s sonata for cello and piano in C op.65, for me the maybe best sonata for those two instruments in the 20th century. Sorry for the overexposed video - I had set up the camera in the back of that amazing hall before the concert, but unfortunately the light for the performance was different to the light of our rehearsal, and since I had no chance of read

On Jan 4 2026 I filmed myself in a livestream on Instagram working through my 10 infamous „daily routines“; 10 „exercises“ I practice on a daily base for about an hour, not as a warm-up per se but as a way to stay in shape for tackling the cello repertoire’s most difficult pieces 🤓 I recommend every musician to find him- or herself a set of daily exercises which allow them to not having to think so much about technique when playing actual music. Here is the 65 minute video in a 90-second short

Random vibrato, taking the composer’s markings serious, avoiding theatrics - basic stuff I keep on repeating in masterclasses, here a little excerpt of a Q&A I did live on Instagram few months ago, having been asked by a young cellist for advise on the Elgar concerto. My next #InstaQA will be this coming Monday (Feb 5) at 6:30 pm CET (Madrid/Berlin), if all goes right live on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. And yes, you can ask anything you like, I have never not given an answer (üben of the an

The shadowy scherzo of Britten's Cello Symphony is a technical tour de force which, in spite of its rigorously intellectual construction, has an unparalleled eeriness and intensity. Alban Gerhardt recorded the work along with the solo suites and sonata for the composer's 100th anniversary. This performance from 2013 is with the RTVE Madrid and Carlos Kalmar 🎻 | Hyperion Records
