About Roel Dieltiens

In the words of his own website, cellist Roel Dieltiens "is not a 'star.' He is a discrete artist, open to discovery by his audience, a seeker who combines utmost thoroughness with great integrity and a passion for music." Noted for a breadth of interests that spreads from early music to mainstream repertory to contemporary compositions to ethnic music, Dieltiens has been responsible for choice performances and recordings in northwestern Europe and beyond. His recording career began in 1995 with an album of concertos by Tartini. In 2019, he released an album of the complete cello concertos of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, playing and conducting the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century. In 2022, he joined fortepianist Andreas Staier for a recording of Beethoven's Op. 102 cello sonatas in period style. By that time, his recording catalog comprised some 30 items.
