I played the Vocalise at the end of my recital a week ago, and gave
the listeners a picture of an oversized Leprechaun striding around my
cello waiving a Cuban cigar and yelling invectives as he strode. Then
I told them that nobody had as beautiful a cello sound nor have I ever
seen his ability to bring a beautiful sound out of a student matched.
I hope I did it justice.
