"Yo-yo ma's version sounds flat, incomplete and passionless."
That's an unfair assessment. Yo-yo Ma's version is most certainly not flat and passionless. IMO, he plays with a DIFFERENT KIND of passion. A darker, more melancholic tone. Whereas Rostropovich is more exuberant and illicits a different emotion, one that which you might identify more with. Don't mistaken difference in approach with difference in ability.

MR is my favorite overall, but Pablo Casals had even more passion for Bach, despite his inferior bowing..Just my opinion.

That's what I thought.
This is certainly the definitive recording. The greatest cellist, playing the greatest pieces of the greatest composer, with one of the best instruments ever made.
It can't get any better than this.

Yes is it is one of the Stradivarius Celli that he is playing. It is named "Duport". That particular Cello was built made in 1711.

Is that the stradivarius he's playing? can anyone tell for sure?
Yo-yo ma ain't got shit on Slava. When you listen to yo-yo ma at first it sounds amazing. However, after you listen to Rostropovich it's easy to tell that Yo-yo ma's version sounds flat, incomplete and passionless.
