{"title":"Mstislav Rostropovich Vinyl Records","description":"\u003cp\u003eMstislav Rostropovich (1927-2007) was a renowned Russian cellist and conductor who is widely regarded as one of the greatest cellists of all time. He began studying the cello at age four, and went on to become one of the most influential and renowned musicians of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRostropovich's discography is extensive, and includes both solo and collaborative albums. Some of his standout albums include: 'The Complete Bach Cello Suites', 'The Art of Mstislav Rostropovich', 'The Essential Rostropovich', 'The Immortal Rostropovich', and 'Rostropovich: The Complete Warner Recordings'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome of Rostropovich's most famous songs include 'Cello Concerto No. 2 in D Major', 'Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major', 'Cello Sonata No. 3 in A Major', 'Variations on a Rococo Theme', and 'Romance for Cello and Orchestra'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn interesting fact about Rostropovich is that he was friends with a number of prominent figures in the arts, including composers such as Benjamin Britten and Dmitri Shostakovich. He was also an active supporter of human rights, and was a vocal critic of the Soviet Union's oppressive regime.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"mstislav-rostropovich-sviatoslav-richter-ludwig-van-beethoven-sonatas-for-piano-cello-55099","title":"Mstislav Rostropovich, Sviatoslav Richter, Ludwig van Beethoven – Sonatas For Piano \u0026 Cello (2xLP, Speakers Corner)","description":"\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003e Brand New\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips from: \u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n\n\n\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRelease details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTracklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Description tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the one hand this set offers the opportunity to compare Beethoven’s art of composition at various stages in his life. And on the other hand one can already recognise in the early Opus 5 how he breaks with the traditional sonata in which the solo instrument merely provides an accompaniment and treats the two instruments as equal partners in the creation of the movements.\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003eRichter and Rostropovich devote themselves to their task with verve and freshness. The two early works are marked by the rich and full sound of the cello and an elegantly performed piano part, while the two Russian musicians foster a contemplative, introverted style in the A major Sonata.\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003eThis respectful approach also lends itself well to the C major Sonata where the free, fantasia-like character with wide-ranging shading is shown off to advantage.
