Feuermann plays Dvorak Cello Concerto - First Movement (Part 1)

[artielon]

I like the brisk tempo - maybe because I´ve heard and played this piece so much - It holds it nicely together. He playes for the listener in mind: everything is so clear and true to the score.

Considered by many to be the greatest cellilst in the last 100 years

What a master Feuermann is. This is a great performance.

I wish someone would post his performance of R. Strauss' "Don Quixote" with Toscanini Live @1936. I own it but it would nice to have it available to others who do not.

marking19 -, thank you for this great video.

Regards-John

Never thought that I would ever utter the words-even better than Rostropovich or Casals. Well this simply blows them both away.-great as they both were.Even the orchestra and conductor are in total harmony. This is in a word-SUPERB!

Paul, thanks for sharing this treasure!! I don't know if his Brams' Doudle Concerto with Heifetz is present here or not. TY

[paulostroff99]

Mozart99900-No,it is unfortunately not!
