Hello Macallan25

Here is a link to my recommendation above for the Daniil Shafran. It truly is a spectacular performance and excellent recording quality as well. At the price, it is well worth you trying.

I hope that this will be helpful.

big starker fan. Less fast than the yo-yo ma's, more emotions. For some the finger movements can be distracting though. For me, it's part of the live experience.
I have the Rostropovich which you can have for a song. Name your price. Contact me at gjpnhap@netzero.
