It's a brave cellist who lays their technique bare by recording Piatti's 12 Caprices, cornerstones of advanced cello training. All unaccompanied, there is nowhere to hide, and no let-up in extreme technical difficulty. Brantelid more than meets the challenge, not only producing flawless examples of high-tessitura octaves, rapid arpeggiated cross-string semiquavers and formidable double-stops, but showing them off as charming and attractive music. - Janet Banks, The Strad, August 2022
