The art of Emanuel Feuermann; Haydn and Bloch, part 2

You have heard a recording made in 1034 of a manual for human playing the Haydn Cello Concerto in D major opus 101 with Malcolm Stajan conducting an orchestra. We are next going to play a late recording made by point when the music contrasts sharply with the classic restraint and the refined expressive tenor of the Haydn.

When a man's performance demonstrates his growth and maturation as an interpretive artist as well as a phenomenal technician and stylist in this recording it is difficult to separate the soloist as personality from the music

for him and has completely absorbed himself into the expressive world created by block. In a sense he is shalom. A.
