Listened to this piece last 30 years, but never such beauty before. This sounds like I am listening to this piece for the first time, this performance surpassed all previous recordings that I know of. Thank you Narek, and best of luck to you.

[@bunaioara]

maybe because of the drastic cuts in the score

[@shantastic1969]

The cello player has to be an emotional wrack after such intense performance. He is completely consumed by the music. Watching him gives me chills.

[@jpap6182]

Unbelievable cello player, what great talent. Narek, you are AMAZING.

[@jonathanhunt5618]

Terrific, heart-felt playing from Narek Hakhnazaryan. There is a huge cut in this performance (15.15 as against Rostropovich's 23.30).

hommage à la grande Natalia Chakhovskaia qui avait succédé à Rostropovitch et dont on ne trouve malheureusement pas assez d'enregistrements

Great soloist, weak orchestra
EDIT: to clarify, the sound is not bad but a lack of articulation and clarity aren't quite what kachaturian had in mind
