Highlights include the legendary 1968 Dvořák Cello Concerto with Herbert von Karajan, no less than three versions of the Schubert String Quintet (with Taneyev, Emerson & Melos) and famed recordings he made with Martha Argerich, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Benjamin Britten, Sviatoslav Richter and Rudolf Serkin; and perhaps what was his most fulfilled musical partnership – that with his wife, the great Russian soprano Galina Vishnevskaya, whom he accompanied as both conductor (Tosca, Pique Dame) and pianist.
