Music reviews of Elgar: Cello Concerto; "Enigma" Variations
Music Review: Genius ressurected
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a stunning performance of the Elgar Concerto for Cello by the gifted Jacqueline duPre with the Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by her husband, Daniel Barenboim. Ms. duPre was already being compared to Casals when she was only in her mid-twenties because of her mastery of the sonorous instrument--known to be one of the most difficult to play. Her career was cut short by multiple sclerosis, diagnosed when she was barely 29, but her recordings, like the one superbly remastered here, live on. In the haunting melody of the Elgar concerto's Adagio, one is reminded of the beauty and sadness of duPre's short career. For cello buffs, this album is definetely 4-star, and the Enigma Variations are a nice bonus.
