thanks for posting these Ryan! what a master

Both segments were super helpful What a privilege to learn from one of the greatest! Thank you - Jerry Maday

I feel so blessed that I was able to attend a masterclass

Thank you. I'm a cellist who picked up an instrument (again) at age 59. I've been at it for four years. I find I do not have the dexterity I had as a child, so it's more difficult for me to create a truly smooth sound. Although I read music well, I joke with my fellow cellists that it's not sight reading but sight playing that's the problem. It's all about better mechanics for me. I appreciate your pedagogy.

This is indeed a valuable instruction! Thanks for sharing! I have been to his concert tonite (Shostakovich), he is really gorgeous!

Thank you enormously maestro. I am genuinely enormously grateful to you.

Grazie Maestro.

thank You so much Maestro!

RIP Maestro...

Perfect!

How is your bow arm so strong??? You get such a thick sound... Is it because everything is so relaxed?

Wery interesting!

@randytooth I would say almost as good as Piatigorsky...best currently alive, I would agree with you :)

Your not Lynn Harrell, so why does everyone think you are? I know because I'm his daughter!
