Couldnât agree more! Must get hold of that CD.
What I do have is the soundtrack from âHilary and Jackieâ. I think the cello Jacqueline du Pré plays in this clip, and maybe in the recordings on the soundtrack, is the Davydov Stradivarius (now in the hands of Yo-Yo Ma. Three hundred years old it is, and he once absentmindedly left it in a taxi cab in NY!!). Her sound is unmistakeable and itâs clear to see why â total immersion. Phenomenal!
