„Mstislav Rostropovich is the world’s greatest cellist, and he has actually made at least five recordings of this greatest of all cello concertos. I have a certain preference for his later version, with Seiji Ozawa and the Boston Symphony Orchestra on Erato. This version has long been a prime recommendation, and in this new remastering at mid-price, it’s an even better deal now. Herbert von Karajan accompanies with his usual expertise, and the Tchaikovsky performance is quite simply the finest around. This concerto is one of those pieces of which you’ll want to have five or six copies. Just make sure this is one of them.“ -David Hurwitz, ClassicsToday
„Two great musicians performing with complete sympathy for each other: Rostropovich on top form and Karajan an attentive partner.“ -James Jolly, Gramophone
Rostropovich’s emotional and sonic power in this classic 1968 recording has never been bettered.“ -Jessica Duchen, BBC Music Magazine
“The intensity of lyrical feeling and the spontaneity of the partnership between Karajan and Rostropovich ensures the position of their DG disc at the top of the list of recommendations.” -Penguin Guide
