Brings back memories. Christine Walevska's proud father, an instrument dealer in Los Angeles, sold me the first cello that I ever owned, back at the beginning of the 1960s, when I was twelve; and he also sent me to my second private cello teacher, a transplanted Frenchwoman named Margot Jean. Needless to say, I had a big crush on Christine at the time (although she didn't even know that I existed): after all, here was an attractive teenage cellist who had scored a success in glamorous, far-off Paris. Who could resist? (Not I...!)
The Brazilian critic of classical music Antonio Hernandez was referring to Christine Walewska as the "goddess of the cello." She was born in America but has lived in Argentina during 12 years where recorded for the Philips label. In Brazil, she gave two recitals in the 60s and also recorded in Rio de Janeiro a 12 inch LP, and a unique 7 inch compact that is the only known in all her worldwide discography.

Thank you!
Anyone know what this piece is?
hello anyone knows the funny piece C.WALESKA plays before the last adagio before de rococo?
The piece is by her teacer, Ennio Bolognini, regarded by Casals and Piatigorsky as the worlds greatest cellist.
