독일 첼로계의 전통을 이어받은 연주가로, 명성에 비해 알려지지 않았던 것은 글쎄요? 나치에 협력했다는 전력(히틀러 집권하의 독일에 남아있던 대부분의 예술가들이 의심받고 있는…) 때문이라는 것도 개연성은 있지만, 그보다는 그가 주로 독일 내에서만 활동하였기 때문이라는 사실이 더 설득력을 가질 겁니다. SP시절에 독일의 Electrola에서 취입한 음반이 있고, DG, Telefunken, MPS 레이블에 적지 않은 녹음을 남겼으나, 음반은 적은 발매량 때문인 듯 상당히 귀합니다. 엘리 나이와 함께한 베에토벤의 첼로 소나타(군더더기 하나 없는 명연으로 엘리 나이의 피아노는 정말이지…)가 가장 널리 알려져 있지만, 바흐에서 현대음악에 이르는 폭넓은 레퍼토리를 자랑합니다.
