One of the best performances of this beautiful (and if not played properly, perplexing) trio, one of the true gems of the chamber music literature. The live Casals, Serkin and Vegh performance is also exemplary. Thanks for posting this!!

By far the most poetic and deeply-felt reading of this ever recorded. Forgive the man for "banging" in spots. His heart is in the right place (as it is most of the time). He elevates this work to the true greatness it deserves but rarely achieves in the usual perfunctory readings. Thanks for post...
