Suvi Raj Grubb: « Everyone who worked with Jacqueline du Pré in the recording studios adored her — the musicians who played with her, the conductor, or pianist who accompanied her, the engineers, the studio assistants and I. She was the ideal recording artist, undemanding, understanding of other people's problems and with no outbursts of what is called 'temperament', which all too often in the artistic world is a synonym for ill-humour. If her chair creaked or she wanted her music-stand raised, even before she asked for help, a watchful studio assistant would rush up with: 'Leave it all to me, Miss du Pré.' For the engineers she was the perfect artist who never complained however long it took to get the right sound through the microphones. For me, the all-too-brief six years in which we worked together are a golden memory of spontaneous, unaffected, joyous music-making. In the world of music it is rare for anyone to be universally liked and admired. It is always: 'So-and-so is a fine pianist, cellist or whatever, arguably the best around', and then the qualification: 'But of course . . . ' often the retraction of the first part of the statement. Du Pré is one of possibly the only three artists I have known, about whom no one has ever said anything derogatory.

She was an unselfish player and so was an ideal partner in chamber music. And added to all this was a sheer delight in making music. You could see this in the smiles she exchanged with other players and the nods with which she acknowledged someone playing a passage especially well. She has often said to me that she hated practising and I have never arrived at her house to find her practising. Playing music, yes, but not scales or arpeggios or exercises. I cannot explain how, in view of this, at concerts and recordings the notes came so easily to her fingers and how she worked out the strongly individual interpretations which characterize her work — but then, you cannot explain genius and if I were allowed to apply that term to only one of the many musicians I have worked with, it would be to Jacqueline du Pré. »
