Mstislav Rostropovich
On April 27th it’s 2 years ago that the classical music world lost one of his greatest heroes: Mstislav Rostropovich. This Russian cellist and conductor has led a turbulent life under Soviet reign and could count Shostakovich and Prokofiev to his inner circle of friends. Watch him perform Richard Strauss’ Don Quixote with Herbert von Karajan and the Haydn cello concerto with the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields here.
