  • Karl Yulievich Davydov (Russian: Карл Юльевич Давыдов; 15 March [O.S. 3 March] 1838 - 26 February [O.S. 14 February] 1889) was a Russian cellist of great renown during his time, and described by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky as the "czar of cellists". He was also a composer, mainly for the cello.

    1. Allegro
    2. Andante (F major) - Animato - Più moto - Tempo animato - Tempo I più lento (11:26)

    Before the age of twenty-five, Karl Davidov (1838-1889) was considered the greatest cellist in the German States, however he did not begin cello until the age of twelve. Davidov began his cello studies with the Dresden cellist Karl Schuberth at the University in St. Petersburg, Russia and went to Leipzig in order to pursue composition in with Moritz Hauptman.
    Originally Davidov had intended to be a composer, but was discovered to be greatest virtuosic cellist since Romberg. Davidov was also a master pedagogue who held the position of cello
    professor at the Leipzig and St. Petersburg Conservatoires. He spent the last two years of his life touring and writing his Violoncello Schule (1888), which would be the first method of the
    Dresden School to incorporate physiology into a cello method. Davidov’s most valued student was Alfred von Glehn, who later taught the famous twentieth century cellist Gregor Piatigorsky.
    Davidov worked as a pedagogue for Liszt as professor at the National Hungarian Royal Academy of Music, where he established the cello and chamber music divisions. He taught there until his
    death in 1913.
    In 1870 Count Wilhorsky, a patron of the arts, presented Davydov with a Stradivarius cello constructed in 1712. This cello, now known as the Davidov Stradivarius, was owned by Jacqueline du Pré until her death and is currently on loan to cellist Yo-Yo Ma.

    Mendelssohn did write a cello concerto, at least the first movement of one, for Alfredo Piatti. Sadly, it was lost in the mail! Karl Davidoff wrote 4 cello concertos.

    Why don’t cellists add this to their repertoire? We hear the same pieces over and over again in the concert hall time to change it up a little.

      I know right? After looking further into Davydov’s works, I found that the majority of his pieces are composed for the cello. He was also considered the greatest cello virtuoso of his time and played a Stradivarius that was later named after him! More cellists need to play his stuff!

      I'm a cellist (well student) and this is in the repertoire it's a classic of technical concerti so almost every cellist already learned it

      @@fobo0053 I wish a Orchestra here in the US would hire you to play it but most don’t want to risk loosing money on a piece that might scare the public away. If it’s not Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky the public get scared off. I wonder if this piece has even been performed live in the States?

      Stevee GALLO It would be absolutely extraordinary if he did. Mendelssohn died in 1847, Davidoff was born in 1838. Davidoff was 9 when Mendelssohn died, and began playing the cello when he was 12. So, I don’t think Mendelssohn had a hand in composing this
