Editorial Reviews All recordings have been digitally remastered with great care to preserve the sound quality inherent in the analog tape masters while improving listenability. Jascha Silberstein Celebrated ‘cellist, raconteur, and gourmet, Jascha Silberstein was born in Poland in 1934 and raised in Switzerland. His mother taught him the piano starting at age 4, and at 10 he made his first public appearance playing Bach's D-minor Concerto. Soon thereafter, a record by the great Gregor Piatigorsky so impressed the youngster that he demanded lessons on the ‘cello. A virtuoso talent emerged, and the boy went on to study with ‘cellist Hans Lofer (aka Rudolf Hindemith) and, later, with the renowned Czech violinist Vasa Prihoda—both formidable interpreters of Romantic music. Following worldwide tours and orchestral experience in Munich and Nurnberg, he moved to the U.S. in 1962 to teach at the University of Texas. He played with the Boston Symphony Orchestra before joining the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra as principal solo ‘cellist—a position he held from 1966 until his retirement in 1996. Mr. Silberstein has recorded albums for London Records and the Musical Heritage Society. He performs on a 1720 Goffriller ‘cello, an instrument formerly owned by both Emanuel Feuermann and Joseph Schuster. Eve Queler (piano) As a guest conductor she has conducted Mazeppa with the Kirov Opera in St. Petersburg, Russia; Don Pasquale with the Hamburg Oper; Tancredi with the Frankfurt Oper; Fidelio, Jenufa, and La Traviata with Oper der Stadt Bonn; Der Fliegende Hollander in Kassel, Germany; The Abduction from the Seraglio with the Australian Opera in Sydney; I Vespri Siciliani and Parisina d'Este at the Liceu in Barcelona and the Nice Opera; Anna Bolena with the San Diego Opera; La Bohème with the Utah Opera; I Puritani both in the Royal Festival Hall (London) and in Aathus (Denmark); Lakmé in Caracas; Les Contes d'Hoffmann in South Africa; and opera gala concerts at the Salle Pleyel in Paris and with the Honolulu Symphony and the Hong Kong Philharmonic. Her numerous symphony orchestra performances include those with the Philadelphia and Cleveland Orchestras, the Montreal and San Antonio Symphonies, and the Rome Opera.
