This collection, compiled and edited by Marion Feldman, is dedicated to the legacy of Mstislav Rostropovich. The ten works presented were performed throughout his career and reflect his depths of virtuosity and interpretation. The pieces include eighteenth-century classics from Popper and Goltermann, Russian romantic works by Tchaikovsky, Cui and Rimsky-Korsakov, and twentieth-century masterpieces by Stravinsky and Rachmaninoff. All pieces are newly engraved and contain updated fingerings and bowings. Unique to this edition are a collection of rarely seen photos, as well as two interviews with Maestro Rostropovich and his daughter, Olga. A befitting tribute to the beloved virtuoso, artist and statesmen and a welcome addition to any musical library.
