The Heart of the Cello (compilation - 30th Anniversary of death: October - Jacqueline du Pr� - "She clearly was born to play the cello," wrote the New York Times of Jacqueline Du Pr� in 1967. Just five years later her career was cut tragically short by illness. Du Pr�'s recordings provide a treasurable memento of the "perfect balance of youth and maturity" that her teacher, William Pleeth, found in her music-making: "She approached each new experience with spontaneous pleasure and enthusiasm." Offering a vivid experience of her life-enhancing art, this 2-CD set of concertos, sonatas and chamber works features recordings remastered in 24-BIT / 96kHz at London's famous Abbey Road Studios.
