Award-winning Spanish cellist and composer Andrea Casarrubios returns with Seven, which features seven of her most recent chamber works, all in world-premiere recordings. Alongside works for solo cello or cello and piano, this recording features her Piano Quintet, a Chicago Symphony Orchestra commission for the distinctive combination of clarinet, violin, viola and cello. At the heart of this collection lies SEVEN for solo cello, a piece that has become central to Casarrubios’s solo repertoire. The title alludes to the 7:00 pm tribute offered to healthcare workers during lockdown. SEVEN premiered at Carnegie Hall in 2021 and has been performed in more than 36 countries since.
SEVEN was a 2025 Grammy Nominee for Best Contemporary Classical Composition
