THE CELLO

The Lost Recordings pays tribute to the great cellist André Navarra, on the 30th anniversary of his death.

Each of the tapes has been carefully restored using the Phoenix Mastering process that we have been developing over several years, one of the one of the stages of which is based on Devialet technologies. The result is a unique 6-disc boxed set, featuring The result is a unique 6-disc boxed set of all the great cello concertos in unprecedented sound quality.
