Mtsilav Rostropovich: cellist teacher legend
Mtsilav Rostropovich: cellist teacher legend
Mstislav Rostropovich (1927–2007), internationally recognised as one of the world’s finest cellists and musicians, always maintained that teaching is an important responsibility for great artists. Before his emigration in 1974 from Russia to the West, Rostropovich taught several generations of the brightest Russian talents – as Professor of the Moscow Conservatoire – for twenty-five years. His students included such artists as Jacqueline de Pré, Natalya Gutman, Karine Georgian and many others. Within these pages, Elizabeth Wilson vividly charts Rostropovich’s musical development and the pivotal points in his career. Drawing from her own vivid reminiscences and those of former students, documents from the Moscow Conservatoire, and extensive interviews with Rostropovich himself, Wilson defines the philosophy behind his teaching and vividly recaptures the atmosphere of the Conservatoire and Moscow’s musical life.
This paperback edition includes a new introduction and epilogue by the author.
