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.
