I love this man. He talks about music almost as well as he plays it.

Steven Isserlis, he is just so 'eloquent', you know. I've read his articles and interviews, heard his performances and recordings, and I could always, ALWAYS sense such fluency, such refinement in both verbal language and musical language.

Steven Isserlis is such a joyous musician and human being. I am besotted by his spirit and his playing.

Steven you are an incredible musician who shares your musical and "vocal" accomplishments with us ,,,...the Philharmonia Orchestra is also fantastic and I was
wondering at their recent transatlantic Broadcasting "silence " since they were a source of initial musical "strength" during the pandemic .... looking forward
to listen to your collective musical collaboration ...Thank. you . and come back to Princeton. and Philly as soon as it is safe to do so !

Sehr schöne Aussprache

"the Beatles influenced Schumann" - I think Steven is a fan of Monty Python!

Did anyone find it funny that this is supposed to be thoughts of Schumann, and starts and ends with Bach's Sarabande?? I wonder why... oh, well, a good Bach, Schumann, Bach sandwich- yes?
