I love these series. Thanks a lot for providing them. I would love to watch some more interviews with cellists and experienced pedagogues such as Marcy Rosen, Paul Katz etc.
Great interview that I rewatch often. Alisa is such an intelligent and beautiful person. When she plays she essentially becomes the music. I think a perfect afternoon would be having afternoon tea with Alisa while enjoying wonderful conversations about all things artistic.
I see you use vibrato in the Bach suites. I just came from an evening with Amit Peled, a cellist and faculty at Peabody - he used no vibrato in Suite No. 1. Is this an issue with Bach? What is considered correct for cellists?
I love this cello player and watching the interview made me love her more...

Any other Jews that you request to have on?

Delightful, insightful & heart-warming - thank you both (& those behind the scenes)
Thanks for watching, Tony Graham (and for mentioning those of us behind the scenes)!
Geniuine answers to probing questions..
The answer to the first question was a simple, resounding, 'yes'.
Wonderful interview.
"You don't need to be inspired to practice. But you always have to be focused. Otherwise it's useless, it's better not to practice."
Very nice questions asked and very interesting answers were given. Maybe time to invite a classical guitarist e.g. Leo Breuwer, Jason Vieaux, etc.
It doesn't hurt to have a family that is well off and have opportunities😮

What’s the intro piano piece?
For details please look at the end credits! Thank you for watching, David!
I love everything about this series except for the title. It sounds so pompous and silly lol. But the content is awesome!
I love the title!
Shit. I can't even memorize 1 concerto. If I couldn't compose, I'd kill myself.
The fake British accent. Why?
She might be a great musician...but quite a poor speaker
Do you mean the affected speech? I don’t understand why she, being from Cleveland, puts on a British accent.
