A Modern Take On Piano, Violin, Cello
CELLO
How’s Casals Cello Sounding These Days?
Interview: Derck Littel, Cellist
What do you consider to be the most important ideas and concepts to impart to aspiring musicians?
Quite simply, playing an instrument, the cello, demands a lifetime commitment if you want to make it to the stage. Young musicians should take that into account. I practice every day and that is rewarding in itself, but my music should be social before it is technical.

Interview: Camille Thomas, Cellist
What do you consider to be the most important ideas and concepts to impart to aspiring musicians?
When you play, forget about yourself. The great performances happen when the artists get out of themselves. This is also the only way to deal with the stress: just think about giving to the audience and not about what people think or how perfect you want to play. We are just a conduit of the music between the composer and the audience, nothing more.
