Review: Is this the definitive version of the piece? Well, considering that RCA's roster of classical musicians was legendary in the Golden Era of recording in which this performance was recorded, we can say it is at least, in the handful of the best. Add to that, being a good friend and collaborator of Heifetz, Piatigorsky always felt a personal if somewhat romantic attachment to Dvorak's famed Cello concerto. Recorded in 1959 directly to three track with Munch conducting the BSO, the sound is as stellar as the performance.
Living Stereo: In the decade following 1953, RCA Victor made a substantial body of recordings which have come to be identified with their early stereo release label, Living Stereo. As the adoption of Stereo audio became more widespread, Living Stereo offered a wide range of music and performances in high quality sound. A majority of these records, particularly classical music, offer music, performances and audio quality which are considered definitive. Living Stereo influenced many of the recordings that followed with their recording and marketing philosophies.
