@@ValentinaCaiolo sorry but I cannot take this disrespect to dear Rostropovich. I can't fathom how saddened he would be by this comment. Your comment shows ignorance. Rostropovich's interpretations are structurally and musically the most fulfilling and his technique and expression is unrivaled in absolute. I have never heard another interpretation of this concerto as good as Rostropovich's. Shafran's may be better in sonatas, but Rostropovich is a true grandmaster of the cello especially in concertos. You cannot simply call Rostro's sound boring. Even Shafran would disagree with you.
Rostropovich mobbed young talented students just to be the only one ... just technik without soul and heart ... rational ... finally - " rostro and friends " show's ... rostro - huge show company
У Ростроповича вместо Дворжака звучит Моцарт - слушать просто нечего, это не Дворжак! У Шафрана Дворжак такой, какой он должен быть, ровно так же как и Шуберт и Бах (с последним кто-то может не согласиться, правда - на любителя). Это нельзя сравнивать. Только Шафран!
That's your opinion, shafran Is the best cellist ever , he has Better technique, Better sound, Better vibrato, Better musicality, Better musical choices, Better intonation, Better glissandos, Better bowing, everything of shafran Is Better than Rostropovich, if you have ears...
Rostropovic is out of tune from the first note😂😂, he plays everything the same and is mechanic, while shafran is technically perfect like rostropovic, but with 1000 times better sound, tone, musicality and poetry. True musicians like shafran, fanboy cellists like Slava.
Name a piece you like played by Rostropovich, then listen to the same piece played by shafran and you'll find out. Better sound, intensity, tone, character, vibrato, bow control, everything. That's my opinion, there are cellist Who make music and cellists Who make a lot of right notes in a row.@@26Toshiro
@@ValentinaCaiolo You are entitled to your opinion, even if it’s not a popular one. That’s not why I said your comment is childish. You using terms like “fanboy cellists” and saying Shafran is “1000 times better” is just silly.
@@ValentinaCaioloAnd I should add, no Slava is not out of tune. You don’t seem to be able to tell the difference between intonation and the timbre of an instrument
Yeah no I wouldn’t be surprised if you have 0 experience with the cello not to mention Shafran was showing off while Rostropovich wasn’t AND the way Rostropovich played it, it was more melodic with a steady rhythm his notes were perfectly fine while sharan kept slowing down or speeding up trying to be a show off with certain notes
