Title: Emanuel Feuermann
Description: "The meteoric career of the Austrian cellist Emanuel Feuermann ended with his sudden and tragic death in 1942, aged only thirty-nine. A brilliant soloist and chamber performer, many expected him to inherit from Pablo Casals the reputation of the greatest cellist of all time. The trio he formed with Jascha Heifetz and Artur Rubinstein was considered the world's leading chamber ensemble.

This new biography of Feuermann - a combination of documentary and oral history and narrative - discusses his life, work and legacy, and gives him the place in musical history that he was denied by his early death."--BOOK JACKET.
