Alto is pleased to return to international availability Marina Tarasova's acclaimed recording of Nikolai Myaskovsky's major works for the cello, originally released on Olympia and now available at an outstanding value price.
Myaskovsky: Cello Concerto / Cello Sonatas
Tarasova earns praise for the coupling, a strong musical personality and magnificent tone.
— Penguin Guide
I am now quite convinced that [Tarasova] is one of the leading cellists of her generation. She has a tone as rich as the best Bordeaux, and the sheer intelligence of her playing, particularly in Myaskovsky's frequent longbreathed cantabile passages, commands instant admiration: I knew within bars that I was in the presence of something special, for she really makes the instrument speak.
