Cello Sonatas by Weill & Dohnanyi
Grossman, cello Walsh, piano
(vinyl)

This recording represents two works for the cello that I've never heard recorded anywhere else.
That being said, I've never heard either of these works performed anywhere. Ever.

This is a digital-age recording from Nonesuch pressed onto vinyl which gives the recording a very "modern" feel; very clean, well engineered. In the transitional age when recordings were more commonly being purchased and made for release on CD you begin to see differences in the mix when you listen to it on vinyl.
Thankfully this record sounds like it should: a recorded performance.
