Mstislav Rostropovič-cello, Benjamin Britten-klavír
Britten: Sonata in C for Cello and Piano
Schumann: Fünf Stücke im Volkston/
Debussy: Sonata for Cello and Piano
In the hands of masters these 5 pieces in folk
style have a rare charm, particularly the last
with its irregular rhythm. This is an excellent
recording. Britten's five-movement work was
written specially for Rostropovich, it is unlike
anything Britten wrote previously. The idiom
itself is unexpected. However, although it demands
fantastic feats from the cellist, it is hardly a
display piece. Each of the five movements is
poised and concentrated. It is an excellent work
to wrestle with on a record, particularly when the
performance is never likely to be outshone. The
recording is superb in every way. Debussy's Cello
Sonata was the first of a planned cycle of six
sonatas for different instruments, written, so
Debussy emphasized, by a musician francais. The
writing for the instruments is brilliant. Britten
and Rostropovich bring a clarity and point which
suit it perfectly. The recording is excellent.
