Janos Starker Live In Paris 1983

"Live in Paris 1983" is a rare live recording of Beethoven's Cello Sonata No. 3, interpreted by icon János Starker and pianist Alain Planès, who faithfully accompanied the cellist for a long time. Another treat on this Analogphonic release is Starker's famous performance of Bach's Suite No. 2 in D minor for unaccompanied cello. The recordings of the concert in the historic hall "Studio 104" of the Paris Funkhaus slumbered for a long time in the "Ina" collection of the French "Institut National de l'Audiovisuel" and are now being released on vinyl for the first time. The 180-gram LP was pressed on virgin vinyl in Japan at Toyokasei.
