Something about Vibrato
I was a bit jealous of Isa. She was a few years older and always a little bit ahead of me on the cello. The Bach was ‘the’ prelude to his first Suite in G major. Also known as ‘that cello piece’.

How I decided to play the cello
I remember that my parents were in a divorce soon after my violin playing (no correlation, I hope) - and that my brother and I joined our mom on a six-week opera tour of Bizet’s Carmen. In fact, classical music was all around, almost all the time.
