Performed by Mischa Maisky (cello) & Lily Maisky (piano)

In describing his new recording called “¡España!”, Mischa Maisky said

“I’ve included Spanish music in my programs for many years and have been waiting for a chance to record these pieces.”

This is his first album in which he performs with his daughter, the gifted pianist Lily Maisky.

Here is Mischa Maisky playing the Elegía by Fauré, with the Orquesta Nacional de España
