ITEM INFORMATION: A very, very rare cello album! This is just the second copy I have ever seen in 30 years of collecting. Bolognini was a cellist’s cellist. Linear notes state he was born in Buenos Aires in 1893, to a musical family. His father was an amateur cellist and a close friend of the conductor Toscanini, who became Ennio's godfather. Bolognini studied first with his father, and later with Jose Garcia, Casal's teacher, who was now living in Buenos Aires. While still a teen-ager Ennio had the privilege of performing The Swan with Saint-Saens himself at the piano; and the Richard Strauss cello sonata, also with the composer. In 1923 Bolognini immigrated to the United States. Interestingly the reason he moved to the United States was to be the sparring partner for Luis Firpo in preparation for his prize-fight with Jack Dempsey. In the 1930’s was first cellist with the Chicago Symphony. He lived in Las Vegas from 1951 to his death in 1979, where he founded the Las Vegas Philharmonic Orchestra.

THIS IS VERY SPECIAL ALBUM IN TOP QUALITY CONDITION, NOT FOUND IN MANY CELLO LP COLLECTIONS!

SELLER INFO: I am a 30-year collector of great classical, jazz, soundtracks and rock records. I started in late 2008 with a sale of a limited number of the best items in my collections. I was inactive with eBay sales for 2011 and thru mid-2012. I am now returning to more regular auctions, each a single music genre-related or performer type auction of LP’s, 10 to 15 each time. Auctions will be of the highest quality and desirability. Expect to bid on rare LP’s of Furtwangler, Bernard Herrmann, string and piano artists and jazz artists. Many fine string,   TAS-listed or TAS-type audiophile records will be included as well. At this time I can not take wish-list items, but please add me to your favorites list for upcoming offerings. My items have no reserve. I ship worldwide and will combine winning bids to save on postage. All records are carefully packed in custom cardboard mailers with extra cardboard padding for safe shipment. Record and inner sleeve removed from cover and placed in poly sleeve.
