Mmmm. Anne Gastinel is not my favorite cellist, and Shosta can be pretty hard to take - fun in small doses though.

She's great. How does she not get sores on her neck though? And she is a little rough on that bow...

Well her look is cold. You thought that was hard to take Alberto? I thought it was great. I guess its tomato tomaato! I thought that snippet was irresistible.

Who was considered the greatest cellist? The late Pablo Casals?

I think a lot of people would say he was the greatest. He was a pioneer. Before Casals the Bach cello suites were thought to be unplayable. He was also a pretty good conductor. I like them all, but often I like the interpretations of Peirre Fournier. Jacqueline DuPre's version of the Elgar cello concerto could make a grown man cry.
