Recognized as a child prodigy, she began playing the cello at the age of four, showcasing a natural gift that would soon captivate audiences worldwide. Du Pré's career soared with her renowned recordings, notably the Elgar Cello Concerto, and her collaborations with her husband, the renowned pianist and conductor Daniel Barenboim.
