XRCD24 24bit Super Analog!
Mastered Using K2 Technology!
Cellist Jacqueline du Pre is joined by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by Daniel Barenboim for this 1970 recording of Dvorak's Cello Concerto Op.104.
At a young age cellist Jacqueline du Pre achieved mainstream popularity She is regarded as one of the most distinctive cellists of the last half of the 20th century Her career was cut short by a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis which stopped her performances at the age of 27.
The British cellist Jacqueline du Pré was considered extraordinarily gifted. Her fame was established by a recording from 1965, when the then 20-year-old recorded Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto with Sir John Barbirolli and the London Symphony Orchestra. Two years later she married the conductor Daniel Barenboim, with whom she also recorded Dvorak's Cello Concerto with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1970.
With his XRCD24, Kazuo Kiuchi gives the original Angel Records production the remastering (together with Tohru Kotetsu and Shizuo Nomiyama) it deserves. And thus honors an artist whose career ended far too early due to multiple sclerosis and who died at the age of only 42. The photograph was taken in November 1970 at Chicago's Medinah Temple.
"Technically masterful, with mature melody and place. In the light of the company's structural engineering, the recently. The late Jacqueline de Pré was the cello composer te by Dvorak and Haydn." - E. Pinter in FonoForum 12/87
