Album Notes & Community Reviews

Captured live during the historic Prades Festival, this recording features the incomparable Pablo Casals interpreting Schumann's intensely lyrical and brooding cello concerto. His deeply emotional phrasing and massive, resonant tone perfectly convey the complex psychological depth of the composer's late style. It stands as a towering, highly revered document of romantic cello performance.
