This curated selection highlights the Catalan musician who transformed the cello into a respected solo instrument. Recorded during his peak years, Casals's characteristic warm tone and expressive intonation guide listeners through definitive performances, from his pioneering readings of Bach's solo Suites to virtuosic miniatures like Rimsky-Korsakov's The Flight of the Bumblebee. Featuring both intimate chamber works and major orchestral repertoire, this collection offers a clear testament to a musical philosopher who reshaped the art of string playing and truly made the cello sing.
