David Oistrakh: Artist of the People? [Region 2]

Igor Oistrakh
Political midget, musical giant
Monsaingeon's Oistrakh film is indeed puzzling. Likewise the companion Richter tape, the musical contents of this TV-derived programme presents the viewer with stunning performances (excerpts only, though), both of chamber and of symphonic music, that amply secure ...

Greatness captured
It's hard to envision a better offering than Oistrakh and Rostropovitch playing the Brahms Double. Luckily, this DVD does not disappoint, bringing that moment of musical excellence to remastered life, and adding to the mix some Bach and Mozart. These broadcasts, ...

Muy buena selección
Esta es una muy buena selección de grabaciones del pasado. Lamentablemente hay piezas que no están completas (como la 9na. Sinfonía de Beethoven, dirigida por Otto Klemperer en 1964), o el Concierto para Violín y Orquesta de Brahms (Oistrakh)pero hay otras que sí, como ...

A master performs pieces written for him
Rostropovich's playing attracted both Shostakovich and Prokofiev to write pieces, including sonatas and these concerti, for the great cellist. The results are staples of the 20th-century repertoire, along with other non-Rostropovich staples like Walton, Elgar, and a ...
Bach - Cello Suites / Rostropovich
Mstislav Rostropovich
EMI Classics, 2004
A Must have DVD
I saw Rostropovich perform all six suites in Vienna during the mid-70s at the time he initially moved to the west. It was the first time he performed all six in one sitting. I also met the man after the concert, truly one of the greatest musical evenings I ever ...
Beethoven Cello Sonatas Nos. 1-5 / Rostropovich, Richter
Mstislav Rostropovich,
Sviatoslav Richter
EMI Classics, 2003
Two Masters at the Height of their Powers
Despite his enormous discography, there's not a very rich visual record of Richter. He and Rostropovich excelled in concert performance, and these DVDs convey their intensity playing some of the best music ever written for the cello. Richter once said in an interview ...
Placido Domingo With Mstislav Rostropovich

St Clair Vision, 2004
Not only nostalgia....
Two extraordinarily talented and cultured people. I happen to love them both. Another 1812? The Haydn is beautiful. Placido, one of the great acting tenors- Borodino was a surprise to me- superb actress, wonderful voice. Presumably isolation in S.Africa explains my ...
