Yuri Bashmet - The Complete Rca Recordings (Audio CD)

Never have I heard lovelier tone from any viola, wrote Gramophone of the program of Schubert, Schumann, Bruch and Enescu heard in this extraordinary 9-CD compilation of Yuri Bashmets complete RCA recordings. As an artist he breathes life into every note. This is immediately apparent in Schuberts Arpeggione Sonata In Bruchs Kol nidrei, no cello could sing out the old synagogue melody with more plangency than Bashmets viola. In a later issue, Gramophone, referring this time to his Walton-Bruch coupling, exclaimed, With Bashmet at his finest, and the LSO playing beautifully for both JÃ¤rvi and Previn, this is a disc for anyone with a taste for romantic viola music.
