"I have been fond of the cello for years. I have enjoyed Casals even though he was somewhate austere. I love Rostropovich's tone and color but have felt that no one has ever played with the passion of Du Pre until I heard Weilerstein on, I believe, NPR when they played an unreleased tape of the Elgar Concerto by Weilerstein. I missed the intro and would have bet the farm that I was listening to Du Pre until the announcement at the end. I immediately ordered this disc and it has me wondering about re-incarnation. Is Du Pre back? This disc is a wonderful sample of the immense talents of this new young artist. I can't wait for Alisa to record the my favorite Elgar for EMI."
Love it or hate it!

"SUCH PRESENCE! This is cello playing without apologies. She is always secure in what she is saying whether that is what you wanted to hear or not. She is the real thing. May she go onto continue to create controvery through her playing!"
Alisa Weilerstein lives up to all the hype...

"It's funny... a young lady of such maturity and emotional depth who actually plays like a young DuPre. She truly gives new meaning to the word "wunderkind". I am quite happy to reccommend this CD to anyone who loves the beauty of the sound of the violoncello. I am pleased to say that also, in person, she is as sweet and charming as one would think. Let's just pray that her future successes will not dampen her passion for music and love for art."
