For many years, Marina Tarasova has been one of the most renowned Russian cellists; a winner of international competitions in Prague, Florence and Paris and a laureate of the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. "These three brilliant compositions, rarely recorded, were all dedicated to Mstislav Rostropovich. Kabalevsky´s sonata is the composer's revelation and one of the best compositions in 20th Century cello repertoire. The depth of its philosophical thought is an invitation to meditate. Prokofiev's Concertino is the most beautiful example of a rare combination in him of lyricism and Russian ‘soil’. In Shebalin's sonata we experience program music: images of old Moscow, peal of church bells, dances of buffoons. According to me, the freedom of will which philosophers haven´t found yet lies in the music of such geniuses!" - Marina Tarasova

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
