Heart of the Cello

Warner Classics pays tribute to the beloved Jacqueline du Pré around the 30th anniversary of her death with a new compilation, available on CD and LP. A true genius of the cello, full of joy and life, she passed away on October 19th, 1987, after many years of fighting multiple sclerosis at the age of only 42. "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. This LP provides a treasurable memento of the "perfect balance of youth and maturity" that Du Pré's teacher, William Pleeth, found in her playing: "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 album comprises recordings remastered in 24-BIT / 96kHz at London's famous Abbey Road Studios.
