Description
"She clearly was born to play the cello," wrote the New York Times of Jacqueline Du Pré in 1967. Just five years later her career was cut tragically short by illness. Du Pré's recordings provide a treasurable memento of the "perfect balance of youth and maturity" that her teacher, William Pleeth, found in her music-making: "She approached each new experience with spontaneous pleasure and enthusiasm." Offering a vivid experience of her art in the concerto, not least her legendary Elgar, The Heart of the Cello comprises recordings remastered at London's famous Abbey Road Studios.
