This review is from: Dvorák: Cello Concerto / Bruch: Kol Nidrei (Audio CD)

Lynn Harrell is a master in his craft. His rendition of the beautiful and haunting "Kol Nidrei" is breath taking. Soaring to the incredable last note of E, in the range of the violin, the listener is left in awe as the cello sings with perfect, sweet vibrato. Few cellists are able to carry this off so brilliantly as does Mr. Harrell. This piece alone is worth the purchase.

DvorAik's Cello Concerto shows off what the instrument can do. From the deepest somber note to rapid double-stops, this is a marvelous showpiece in which the cello takes eventual control of the orchestra. Thrilling and beautiful, this recording is one of the best versions ever recorded.
