I always wish I’d been a chamber violinist/cellist/violist instead.
Simply put, I wish I’d die and go to Marlboro. No matter how many gensui recordings of the Mendy Octet they put out on the market, I’d still treasure this recording as though I gave birth to it.
What do you mean why? Its Casals, its Jaime Laredo, Alexander Schneider, Arnold Steinhardt, John Dalley on violins; Michael Tree, Samuel Rhodes on violas; Leslie Parnas, David Soyer on cellos - all of the original Guarneri Quartet members
nah got it off the ftp, apparently the first upload was good but the link was bad. randomly. Btw I like this Italian better than the Ashkenazy version I’ve got.
