This is the only version I’ve listened to where everybody played as if their lives depended on it, and moves effortlessly from calm to conquest. That’s how I imagine this piece was composed, but even if it wasn’t, I still adore it! Other cellists play it beautifully, but quite “piano,” much more subdued.
The harmony at 14:34 always gives me such chills. And Piatigorsky’s playing just takes it to another level. He understood harmonic colors just as well as anyone
Lyrische Interpretation dieses ethnisch komponierten Konzerts mit seidigem Ton des Solocellos und perfekt synchronisierten Töne anderer Instrumente. Der intelligente Maestro dirigiert das ausgezeichnete Orchester im gut phrasierten Tempo und perfekt kontrollierter Dynamik. Einfach wunderschön!
He did not have the transcendent technique of Rostropovich, but since the 70s, this has been the definitive recording of this work for me. He gets to the very heart of this music. Hoomeyow!!
before concluding anything about Piatigorsky's technique, please listen to his own Original set of Variations on the Paganini Theme and his arrangement of Schubert Variations ... and please don't forget Nelsova, whom Bloch identified as the artist who "is my music."

I love Pyatigorsky very much but, frankly, it is not the best example of his unconditional talent. Compare to Feuerman's interpretation th-cam.com/video/LOtrSqymPRs/w-d-xo.html it sounds like good work of a very good student. Probably, the material itself didn't tell him much. And, with all my respect, Munch is not Stokowski. IMHO, it's all too square.

Григорий Пятигорский! Обожаю его ❤.
Stunning music and performance.
Grischa and his impeccable interpretation here of Schlomo. The timing, the expression. Yeah the intonation. He practiced!!
So beautiful!!!🎶❣️🎶

Thanks for your post - it's a raritet!
♥ beautiful.
Gregor el mejor cello del siglo 20 allá, al lado de Rostropovich, Dupre, Nelsova. Piatigorsky the beat!!!
An Hebraic work played with Russian guts and passion.... 😍😍 Yikes, this is a gorgeous interpretation... 😊😊😊😊
ביצוע יותר טוב מזה לא היה ולא יהיה

Sehr schön geschrieben.Wer verbirgt sich hinter dieser Kritik?
“Ethnically composed”?? And in German, too. Sehr interessant.

@Extra Salt - Rostropovich may keep his “transcendent technique”....I have never been remotely moved by anything he played, so you may keep it, too.
@@voraciousreader3341 wow, what a statement. Have you listened to his Don Quixote? Quite possibly the greatest recording of anything on cello ever
