Janos Starker - Dvorak Cello Concerto - Speakers Corner LP

180g Vinyl, Speakers Corner Audiophile Reissue

The outstanding success of Speakers Corner's release of Bach's Cello Suites performed by Janos Starker prompted this no-less-important interpretation of Dvořák's Cello Concerto by the Hungarian virtuoso. Starker tackles the concerto with amazing confidence, his tonal purity remaining unscathed even in the dreaded upper register and cadenzas, so one can concentrate wholly on the meditative magic of the music. He finds worthy partners in conductor Antal Dorati and the London Symphony Orchestra, and an ever-welcome encore arrives on side two with Bruch's Kol Nidrei. Reissued from the original Mercury Living Presence recording.
