Aquí tenemos al gran Rostropovich aunque él descansa ya en el Más Allá, en la Gloria

I just got back from a concert where a 14 cellist from Texas performed this piece with every ounce of beauty as Rostropovich. Watch out for Russell Houston in the future.

Nevermind - I listened to it again with that in mind and maybe I was just knitpicking.

at 3:12 is where I really start to dislike the tempo...it feels as if it's in one, which makes the sense of alertness and precision crumble (in my opinion). It has nothing to do with getting all the notes - Slava could get them at any tempo - but the character of the music changes slightly.

I mean, from the moment you here the call of the oboe, it really puts you in a new world.

I am in awe (again) of Rostropovich. And, also, of the Saint-Saens concerto. Ah, the chords and notes create their own textures and musical significance...for the first time, I get an impression of power as well as beauty.

i just wish that he would slow down the sixteenth note so it is easier to hear all of the notes but otherwise fantastic.
