[Violinists & Cellists] Feuermann, Emanuel. (1902–1942). Original 1936 Photograph. Original press photograph of the "celebrated Austrian 'cellist, who will be heard in recital at the Friday afternoon series at the Peabody Conservatory of Music." Stamped November 30, 1936. Some creases and scratches with typewriter marks at the foot; overall in very good condition. 20.3 x 26 cm.
"Feuermann, arguably more than Casals, was responsible for revolutionizing cello technique. His astonishing technical facility made him the first cellist to play with the ease of a violinist, while his purity of tone, intensity of sound, clarity of articulation and fine musicianship mark him out as one of the greatest string players of the 20th century."
