Product Description

The Gramophone

"Maisky plays them all with his heart in the right place, which for these purposes is on his sleeve. As string-players sometimes say, he gives the music plenty of rosin."


Album Description

DG's premier cellist Mischa Maisky champions Rachmaninov's beautiful, emotional works for cello and piano. He is partnered by the talented young Argentinean pianist Sergio Tiempo, a pupil of Martha Argerich

The repertoire, including the Cello Sonata op. 19, the Danse orientale for cello and piano, as well as the five "songs without words" plus three pieces for piano (all arranged by Maisky), are all new to the DG catalogue. This release was recorded live during the Progetto Martha Argerich Festival in Lugano in June 2005 (Sonata) and in 2006

Élegie is Maisky's fifth album to explore the "songs without words" concept. His critically acclaimed previous releases focussed on songs by Schubert, Brahms, Mendelssohn and Russian songs among others

The booklet notes, by the well-known English writer Tully Potter, incorporate quotations from Mischa Maisky on the music and the arrangements

4.0 out of 5 stars Sincere enough, yet repetitively sentimental!!!!, 4 Jan 2009
By Mr. L. Zhang "LeighLei" (Beijing, Mainland China) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Maisky is an excellent artist, but he can never be great, as can be testified in his endless, unrestrained catharsis.
His cds are more or less the same: crying( not weeping), complaining for the injustice inflicted on him by the former Soviet regime...The first time you hear him, you will cry with him; yet when you get used to him, you will see this is his " stock skill". Really tear-jerking and sentimental, yet the effect is totally gone after repeated listenings. A sense of disgust can even arise!
A wonderful companion to those who always feel disatisfied with life and seeks a way to release himself without expecting to solve any problem! Yes, you are right, this is opium or alchoholic thing! But who can deny their alluring attraction sometimes? But remember, only sometimes!
