Various - J�nos Starker plays Cello Concertos by Hindemith, Prokofiev, Rautavaara

Among the legendary cello virtuosos of the twentieth century, Janos Starker was the most flawless, unrivalled in the way he constantly combined technical perfection, focused sound, exciting expression and objective conception. Starker dedicated himself to repertoire from Bach to the modern classics, as well as intently promoting new music. His playing is often described as a mixture of fire and ice, characterised by an indomitable, forward-driving power and a linear tension that leaves no room for self-indulgence.
