Description

JANOS STARKER - KODALY Opus 8 for solo cello on the Period record label.  Catalog number SPLP 510, Released in 1950 - Rare LP.  Cleaned with Loyd Walker's 4 step process on a Loricraft record cleaning machine.  Jacket has some water stain on back only, very tiny amount of seam split see photo's, some hairline scuffs on vinyl and some surface noise typical of a record manufactured at this time, but overall in great shape for a nearly 65 year old LP.  Buyers choice of shipping service at buyers expense. 

The Hungarian composer Zoltan Kodaly wrote his Sonata in B minor for solo cello, Op. 8, in 1915. It was first performed in 1918 and published in 1921.  Some people considered it unplayable at that time.  It is among the most significant works for solo cello written since Johann Sebastian Bach's Cello Suites.  

Janos Starker passed away last year at the age of 88. See my other auctions for more collectable LP's. Keep your eyes open for other genres coming soon! Will combine shipping for multiple items. Shipping to US only, or contact seller before bidding.
