With her new album, Sol Gabetta shines a spotlight on Lise Cristiani (1825-1853), the first professional female cellist to perform publicly. To mark the 200th anniversary in December 2025 of Lise Cristiani’s birth, Sol Gabetta pays tribute here to a musical trailblazer of great historic significance on her new album, set to be released on October 10 by Sony Classical. As the first woman cellist to have had the courage and opportunity to perform in front of live audiences, Cristiani broke social conventions, inspired numerous composers of her time, and became a role model for generations of women musicians. In close collaboration with musicologists, Sol Gabetta has spent recent years exploring the fascinating – if tragically short – career of this exceptional artist Lise Cristiani and to reconstructing her musical repertoire. On a sonic journey through works by the virtuoso cellists who were close to Cristiani, Sol Gabetta invites listeners to rediscover a captivating body of music and one that powerfully showcases the cello’s full virtuosic potential and rich Romantic expressiveness.
