Dvořák: Cello Concerto / Nelsova, Ricci, Susskind, St. Louis Symphony
- Vox
- February 23, 2024
Antonín Dvořák’s Cello Concerto is considered the finest of his concertos, and arguably the greatest of all such works for the cello. These Vox recordings from 1974 performed by Zara Nelsova in the Concerto, Silent Woods, and the Rondo, and Ruggiero Ricci in the Romance and Mazurek, with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra conducted by Walter Susskind, are acclaimed classics.
REVIEW:
Zara Nelsova brings a rich, expansive tone to her warm, expressive account of the Cello Con certo’s solo part, and Susskind and his players are with her every step of the way. It is good to have the melodious Silent Woods and the spare Rondo in G minor on the program right after the concerto. Both are lovingly played here.
