Vinyle Deutsche Grammophon

This vinyl record edited by Deutsche Grammophon brings together three major works of the repertoire for cello performed by Heinrich Schiff, one of the great European cellists of the 20th century. Registered with the New Philharmonia Orchestra from London under the direction of Charles Mackerras, this album illustrates the excellence of the German discographic know-how of the 1970s, both artistically and technically.

The program highlights the expressive richness of the French romantic cello, since the virtuoso and lyrical viola of Camille Saint-Saëns, to the elegiac depth of Gabriel Fauré, to end with the dramatic and orchestral breath of the concerto of Edward Lalo. Heinrich Schiff deploys a powerful, nuanced game and a great clarity of phrase, perfectly supported by a precise and balanced orchestral direction.

Pressing original stereo Deutsche Grammophon – Made in Germany, this vinyl is intended for demanding collectors, fans of classical music on analogue media as well as musical libraries looking for reference editions. The famous yellow label Deutsche Grammophon, emblematic of quality and prestige, reinforces the heritage interest of this copy.

Proposed here as collectible object, this record is a beautiful piece for a classic high-level discotheque or for a specialized musical antiques shop.
