The instrument has been on loan to British cellist Steven Isserlis since 2009 who has been touring with it and recording on it for over 15 years. Marking the 300th anniversary in 2026 of 'The Marquis de Corberon,' cited as one of the world's greatest cellos, Hyperion presents a beautiful 10-CD collection in a captop box set, which brings together ten of Steven Isserlis' chamber and concerto albums with the instrument.
