Haydn Cello Concertos ; Boccherini : Cello Concerto (Du Pré) (1969)

Opnamen uit 1967 en 1969 van de legendarische Jacqueline du Pré. 'This is cello-playing so urgent and commanding that there can be no question of self-consciousness in what it tells you, with the slow movement again a deep meditation and the finale, crisply articulated at a hectic speed, sounding joyfully exuberant, never merely breathless. Whatever objections one might make in principle to the balance of the soloist, the warmth and vividness of soundof the orchestras as wellis what matters in preserving the impact of a unique artist with startling freshness at full involvement'. (Edward Greenfield in Gramophone 2/1982).
