Music reviews of Britten: Cello Symphony, op. 68; Sinfonia da Requiem, op. 20; Cantata misericordium, op. 69Music Review: Standard Performances
My chief interest in this disc was the recording of the Cello Symphony with Mstislav Rostropovich, for whom Benjamin Britten composed the piece in 1963. This recording was made not long after the premiere and joins my other recordings of Benjamin Britten's music made by the composer. The brooding quality of this recording has never been surpassed, particularly the forced jubilation of the Passacaglia. Mstislav Rostropovich plays with an exceptionally beautiful tone and the dynamics of his playing, traversing difficult pizzicatos and his expressive pianissimo are a marvel.
