The mellow cello fellow
Sitting around working on my Pennario project I got to thinking: God love Gregor Piatigorsky. He never took a bad picture!
Pennario loved him and his charm comes through in the pictures.
That profile.
Here Piatigorsky is with his wife Jacqueline whom Pennario adored.
Here is Piatigorsky making Heifetz smile.
Another of the two of them. On the left is the tremendous famous picture of Piatigorsky with that marvelous collar.
Classic, classic shot.
And one more smoky pic, obviously taken from the same photo session.
When I am satisfied with my Pennario book I want to come out with a book of photos of Piatigorsky.
Somebody has to!
