Absolutely Satisfying Performances From Two Of The Best Classical Musicians of the 20th Century

Bach: 6 Suiten für Violoncello solo
Pierre Fournier, Johann Sebastian Bach

Archiv Produktion, 1997

Unparallelled Bach
Fournier uses a rare circa-1722 Venetian Matteo Goffriler Cello for these recordings; hence their distinctive timbre which is without parallel in the Bach solo cello suites discography. Fournier's choice of instrument is vital in that Bach wrote these pieces between ...

For many, the definitive Dvorák Concerto

Bach Cello Suites - Pablo Casals
Recently, I vacationed in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The place Pablo Casals made his permanent home from 1956 to his death in 1973. In my hotel, his recording of the Bach Cello Suites was played endlessly. The entire week I was there only this recording of Pablo Casals' ...

EMI Classics, 1995

One of the pinnacles of Western classical music, played by a master
It is difficult to know what to add to the many useful and intelligent reviews already posted on Amazon, but anyone who owns this recording feels the compulsion to share his enthusiasm with other music lovers. While other cellists - particulalry Casals and Fournier - ...

Beethoven: Triple Concerto; Brahms: Double Concerto
Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2005

The Greatest Triple-Double Returns
Deutsche Grammophon seemed to have forgotten about its single disc "Originals" line recently, concentrating instead on reissuing titles via the "Original Masters" boxed sets and "Musik...Sprache der Welt" series (see my reviews). But all that has changed with a recent ...
  
  











  



  
Donizetti - L'Elisir d'Amore (The Elixir of Love) / Pido, Alagna, Gheorghiu, Opera National de Lyon
Angela Gheorghiu, Roberto Scaltriti

Decca, 2002

This elixir works
I have two other Elixir DVDs (Pavrotti twice, paired once with Kathleen Battle and once with Judith Blegen). They're all good, but this is my favorite. Alagna and Gheorghiu can both act as well as sing, and they work well together (they are, after all, married). ...

The Best Quixote? -- Close
This is a terrific disc from the DG Originals series featuring noted Straussian Herbert von Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic. Of the nine accounts I currently own of Strauss' "Don Quixote," I feel this 1965 performance with cellist Pierre Fournier is one of the ...
