Thanks for the great video. You made some excellent points. The Royal Ballet of London made a beautiful and moving dance piece about her life from the point of view of her instrument. It’s called The Cellist and I highly recommend it. It’s got wonderful music with it as well including some of her signature pieces including the Mendelssohn. There are excerpts on RUclips
My multiple Sclerosis symptoms began age 15. Dx age 33 . I was misdiagnosed with manic depression with the fluctuating energy and abilities. Undiagnosed with manic depression age 34. Blessed to have a good family doctor then he also helped my son being born after 45 hours of labor and the numbness and fatigue and the undiagnosed multiple Sclerosis
My family was already thinking of me last so I never asked for help with my multiple Sclerosis. I did my best and did my own research about multiple Sclerosis and I had some symptoms better with diet, rest, CBD. And prayer!
@@user-qr9uh1fd8g You've had a tough road, to be sure. Sounds like you came to the same understanding many of us did, that we have to take charge of our own MS and not expect others to have the answers.
Dear lady - you DO inspire - I found your video by accident - learned about the person, JdP, listened to her music and now YOU. Thank you. Your clarity works like a lesson in humility, in empathy. Please, accept another THANK YOU.
I am a huge fan of Jacqueline Du Pre! Her recording of the Elgar Concerto is unmatched (Her husband pianist/conductor Daniel Barenboim conducted that recording) and I also love the recording of her playing the Schubert Trout Quintet with Itzhak Perlman on Violin, Pinchas Zukerman on Viola, Zubin Mehta on Bass and her widower Daniel Barenboim on piano. It’s so sad that her career was cut short by MS and both her husband and her niece Claire Finzi bashed both the book and the movie Hilary & Jackie because they both said that Hilary was saying things about her that weren’t true. I read somewhere that a lot of her friends which included Itzhak Perlman and Pinchas Zukerman said that Hilary was somehow making money off of Jackie’s death and that Hilary was jealous of her because Jackie had a more successful career than her older sister.
Oh why did n't Jackie get another 37 years , this cruel disease also claimed singer songwriter Clifford T Ward , another favourite.Check out his song Water , his response to being diagnosed with MS .
I have to wonder why I never heard any of Clifford Ward's music before. I was a young teenager in the '70's, living in New York state, listening to popular music.... What a talent - and what a loss! Thank you so much for making me aware of this artist.
Because at the time (she was diagnosed around 1973 and died in 1987) there wasn’t as much medicine or as much technology to slow down the symptoms of MS as there is now. Selma Blair for example has lived with MS for the last 6-7 years and nowadays they use chemotherapy for MS which was what Selma Blair did.
Definitely, a cosmic joke at play here. The Gods gave her a prodigious talent, then she got a disease, where she was unable to play anymore.....Oh, how they must have laughed.

I'll look for that Royal Ballet film. Thanks for the suggestion!

THANK YOU.
Thank you so much! Ms. du Pre's music has enriched my life. And yours as well, it seems.
To glimpse Jackie's personality and brilliance, listen to her performance of the Elgar Concerto with John Barbarolli.
I'll look for that recording. I have the one with her husband Daniel Barenboim conducting.
It is a great video👍👍👍
Thank you! I've been appreciating her music even more now that I know more about her.

Thanks - I put the movie on my watchlist. Such a talented but tragic family!
A fine exposé: tks
You're most welcome!
Dr Gabor Matè made me aware of her, i was diagnosed 18 month's ago.
Hope you're managing with it so far!
There was a movie made based out of this book, called Hilary and Jackie.
Yes, I plan to watch it soon. Hard to imagine that it could be more painful than the book!

MS is a bully and a thief. Jackie's story proves it.
