Janos Starker & London Symphony Orchestra Dvorak Violincello Concerto

The outstanding success of our edition of Bach's Cello Suites, played by Janos Starker, encourages us to present Dvorák's Cello Concerto, another no less important recording by the Hungarian virtuoso. Starker takes this concert into his hands with a striking certainty that does not seem to know any technical problems. The purity of the tones remains unclouded even in the dreaded high altitudes as well as in the cadenzas, so that one can devote oneself completely to the meditative magic of the music.
With Antal Dorati and the London Symphony Orchestra, Starker has found worthy comrades-in-arms. Conductor and soloist set standards in concerted collaboration by focusing less on the much-vaunted competition in the interpretation. Rather, the protagonists commit themselves to a chamber music reading that is characterized by dynamically moderate use of the orchestra and consistently slender tone of the solo part.
As an always welcome addition, there is Bruch's "Kol Nidrei" on the second page, performed with juice, power and a healthy portion of that romantic enamel that makes the piece blossom into an evergreen.
