BEETHOVEN - The Triple Concerto in C Major, Op. 56 - Oistrakh/Rostropovich/Richter/Von Karajan.

There is a marvellous dialogue taking place in this concerto between the three main players, David Oistrakh on violin, Mstislav Rostropovich on cello, Sviatoslov Richter on piano, and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra masterfully conducted by Herbert von Karajan. These were the great classical maestros of days gone by.
