About the album

'An indispensable and self-recommending disc. The lovely Myaskovsky could not be played with greater eloquence and the first Western recording of the Prokofiev (also from the 1950s) sounds as if it was made yesterday.' (Gramophone) These recordings were indirectly the work of Nikita Khruschev, whose post-Stalin liberalisation meant the young Mstislav Rostropovich could travel to and record in the West. Thus it was that in 1955 the virtuoso cellist, with his KGB 'accompanist', was introduced by EMI to Sir Malcolm Sargent. Over the next two years they recorded the works presented here. Prokofiev reworked the Sinfonia concertante from his Op.58 cello concerto expressly for Rostropovich, who introduced it in Moscow in 1952 with, intriguingly, the pianist Sviatoslav Richter as conductor. This CD restores the Rachmaninov Vocalise, which was a bonus item on the original LP of the Myaskovsky.
