  • Beautiful Thankyou

  • ithanks 4 this God bless, xx

  • i played this recording at the church where my mother rested the evening before her funeral

  • A beautiful recording of two of the musical greats! Thank you irenemarga for the posting!

  • The McCormack-Kreisler duo triumphs again! McCormack's technique is impeccable and this recording was made when his voice was at its best.

    No one could execute a high-register pianissimo like him. Thanks very much for posting this exquisite piece!

  • Exquisite. McCormack and Kreisler made several gorgeous recordings with violin obligato. They did a joint concert tour of the British Isles around 1900.

  • Den scoth!

  • This McCormack/Kreisler duet must be one of the most beautiful recordings of all time.
