About

“Whenever I practise today and whenever I prepare for my concerts, I think of my unforgettable teacher with boundless love and gratitude. For me, Rostropovich remains the quintessence of cello playing.” - David Geringas

In March 2017, Mstislav Rostropovich would have turned 90. To celebrate this anniversary of one of the greatest cellists of all time, Deutsche Grammophon presents a truly encyclopaedic boxset which for the first time brings together “Slava’s” complete recordings for Decca, Philips, and the Yellow Label (as cellist, pianist and conductor).  Also included are his recordings for Westminster/Melodiya.

Highlights include the legendary 1968 Dvořák Cello Concerto with Herbert von Karajan, no fewer than three versions of the Schubert String Quintet (with the Taneyev, Emerson and Melos Quartets) and famed recordings he made with Martha Argerich, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Benjamin Britten, Sviatoslav Richter and Rudolf Serkin; and perhaps what was his most fulfilled musical partnership – that with his wife, the great Russian soprano Galina Vishnevskaya, whom he accompanied as both conductor (Tosca, Pique Dame) and pianist.

“... an essential document for cello students...” - classicalsource.com on Decca’s Complete Rostropovich
