CASALS, Pablo: Encores and Transcriptions, Vol. 5: Complete Acoustic Recordings, Part 3 (1920-1924)

Pablo Casals was one of the greatest and by far the best-known cellist of his generation, whose playing was remarkable both for a superb sense of rhythm and a wonderful parlando quality. This third and final disc of his complete 78rpm acoustic recordings, which cover the period 1916-1925, includes a handful of original compositions, notably the popular Gavotte by the great Bohemian cellist David Popper, and Bruch’s Kol Nidrei. The rest of them are transcriptions or arrangements, including the beautiful version of MacDowell’s famous piano piece ‘To a Wild Rose’, from Woodland Sketches, which Casals makes his own.
