Cembal d'amour Rare Classical Recordings

It is with much sadness that we mourn the passing of Emanuel Vardi, Saturday, January 29th, 2011, in North Bend, Washington State.  Maestro Vardi was a great man and a much revered musician, violist, violinist, conductor, artist and teacher with incredible achievements in music and in life.
We are very fortunate to be able to preserve some of his supreme musical achievements on audio discs and will continue to do so in the future.

In Memoriam
When Emanuel Vardi passed away in January 2011, the music world lost a remarkable musician and a unique human being.  Very few, if any, can compare with his remarkable achievements as one of the greatest violists within memory, as well as his excellence as a violinist, conductor, and composer.  The program includes rare long-out-of-print performances and a never-available-before live recording of the Walton Viola Concerto.
