Eugene Levinson New York Legends

Eugene Levinson

Principal Double Bass,
New York Philharmonic

Code: CACD0507


$14.99 / CAD19.04






"This lovely recital by Russian-born Eugene Levinson is one of a series by principal players from the New York Philharmonic. Opening with an excellent new piece Dance of Life by Iranian émigré Behzad Ranjbaran....It is the depth of feeling Levinson brings to these performances which makes this disc so special. He eschews any overt display of emotion and never seems tempted to flaunt his instrumental athleticism. His dark brown tone is rich and mellow, his intonation impecible and his virtuosity effortless....first class production." The Double Bassist

Cala Records presents the first in a twelve compact disc series New York Legends, featuring Eugene Levinson, Principal Double Bass from the New York Philharmonic. Regarded as one of the finest players in the world, this disc is testament to his virtuosity and flawless musical control. This recording was made to reflect Mr Levinson's strongest artistic convictions as it surveys the most creative Double Bass music in the repertory.
