Beethoven: Complete Music for Cello & Piano
Maurice Gendron,
Mstislav Rostropovich
, ...
Philips, 1994
Beethoven would have smiled
Rostroprovich and Richter are poster children for the merits of recording the lesser-known works of past masters. It is astonishing to believe that the Beethoven of, say, Symphonies, 3, 7, and 9 also sat himself down to compose small music like these pieces for two ...
Bach: The 6 Cello Suites
Maurice Gendron,
Johann Sebastian Bach
Philips, 1994
Peerless - for 30 years
I feel qualified to write a review of Gendron's Bach Suites, having won the International Bach Competition in 1985 in Washington, DC, for the very same pieces. Gendron is the standard by which all others are judged. Structure, voicing, integrity and tone quality have ...

Decca, 2001
A lovely set
Schubert's music for violin and piano includes four violin sonatas (the first three being called "sonatinas" originally), the D 934 Fantasy, and the amazing Arpeggione Sonata D 821. The first three violin sonatas are considered to be "light weight" but they are quite ...
Brahms: String Sextets Nos. 1 & 2

EMI Classics, 2003
Great Brahms playing in a gentle mood
I agree with the reviewer below who calls these Menuhin-led performances inspiring. The two Brahms Sextets have been fortunate on recordings, with great accounts going back to the Casals Festival in the early Fifties. If you own the live readings by the combined ...

The Best Of Saint-Saëns
Anne Martindale Williams
, Maurice Gendron, ...
Philips, 1994
Superb Collection
This was my first Saint-Saëns CD, and I did not quite know what to expect. It was love at first hear(?!). An excellent collection, ranging from the humorous "Carnival of the Animals" to the serious Organ Symphony. If you are not familiar with Saint-Saëns, I would ...

Philips, 1996
Excellent, comprehensive overview of Handel's works
Philips offers a comprehensive overview of the works of George Frideric Handel, featuring a variety of conductors (Marriner, Maazel, Colin Davis, etc.) This 2-CD set includes 43 tracks spanning over 2.5 hours, and provides an excellent introduction to Handel. The ...
The Best of Boccherini

Philips, 1993
Forgotten Gems Brought to Light!
This was among my very first Boccherini albums (I own 50+) and I consider it an absolutely essential collection of his music. CONS: I wish the "Famous Minuet" was presented as part of the whole quintet it was written in as this album presents it alone and thus out ...

Cello Classics, 2001
Exquisite cello collection
This CD features some incredibly rare, and some just plain incredible, recordings by some of the greatest cellists of the last century. The repertoire and moods are wonderfully varied, as are the playing styles on offer-- from the "catch-me-if-you-can" humor of the ...
