Another du Pre recording I am particularly fond of is her live Elgar
concerto with her then husband, Barenboim and the Chicago SO. It is from
the early 70's, just prior to her premature retirement. I find in many
ways it is much more expressive and emotive than her earlier recording.
It is coupled with a fine version of the Enigma Variations.
BTW, the remastered EMI Elgar concerto has not and still is not available
in the good ole USA. Shame on EMI.
