…my star item from the whole set is the Schumann Cello Concerto with the Leningrad Philharmonic under Rozhdestvensky: here Rostropovich generates a natural impetus while bringing subtle nuance to the melancholic melodic lines. The effect is magnificent - tortuously yearning yet in equal measure divinely beautiful.
