description About

Before her untimely death from multiple sclerosis in 1987, renowned cellist Jacqueline Du Pre won classical audiences in the 1960s and '70s with her robust and lively approach to musicianship, a testament to her innate genius and deep affinity for the pieces she played. See her face Brahms's cello sonatas, Beethoven's "Sonata No. 3 in A, Op. 69" (with husband Daniel Barenboim on piano), Elgar's "Cello Concerto in E minor, Op. 85" and many others.
