Reviews
"David Lale, West Suffolk Young Musician of 1999, made an auspicious debut as soloist in Haydn's Cello Concerto in C Major, capturing both the virtuosity and the poetry of the piece."
"...a very musical and distinguished performance."
"...few (cellists) will have mastered Elgar's Cello Concerto with the genuine sense of freshness David Lale has brought to his performance."
"David Lale brought a palate cleansing sense of lyricism to a piece which is too often clogged up with faux anguish."
"Lale's authority over the work was clear."
"Lale is a soloist to watch for in the coming years."
