Gautier Capuçon and the Olympic flame
French cellist Gautier Capuçon performed the popular Edith Piaf song 'Hymne à l'amour' at the Hôtel de Ville, Paris, on 14 July (Bastille Day) to welcome the Olympic flame to the city. The Olympic Games will run from Friday 26 July to Sunday 11 August 2024. Capuçon was also one of the torch bearers carrying the flame through the streets, as can be seen in the September 2024 issue of The Strad.

    Любить эту женщину . Любить эту женщину - петь беспричинно, быть истинным Богом, создателем вся, в уме не иметь тоскований и тины, цвести лепестково средь пыли, овса! Любить эту женщину - быть, как колибри, и пить из бутонов чистейший нектар, иль, сердце до шара на небе расширив, парить, ощущая рубиновый жар! Любить эту женщину - знать о природе и быть милосердным и щедрым, собой, принять всё живое, людские породы, смотреть с упоеньем на диск золотой! Любить эту женщину - в космос поверить и голос божественный в птице узнать, мечтам, запредельям не видеть барьеров, творения божьи с добром созерцать! Любить эту женщину - вслух любоваться фонтанами, берегом, вкусом конфет, кружить и притом на земле оставаться, искать на вопросы вселенной ответ! Любить эту женщину - чувствовать вволю приятности, ясность и лёгкость, покой, примерить уют, соучастную долю, которых доселе не ведал с другой!

    The interviewer could have done her homework a lot more thoroughly to make sure that all the information in the interview is new to everyone watching (most fans of Roberts will already know his technique for playing piano style chords), but he was an excellent interviewee and I hope that he continues to explore the possibilities of the violin in this way and that he continues to have success with it, as I find it very inspiring. It is always nice when pop covers are of a very high standard.

      @@kiwiviolin941 Well it's true that a violin can "tighten up" in cold weather after being in a moderate/warm-ish (but not overly humid environment). Sorry for all those words! I used to live in New Zealand by the way, in Nelson! Happy times. But yes: most of the great Stradivaris, Guarneris, Vuillaumes I've heard have performed well in places like Canada, London, Australia, America, New Zealand, Singapore - (and Singapore is a "dangerous one" for the violin because of the humidity! The violin can possibly fall apart!). I think I could identify the violin she used if you gave me the year that she played in the concert you went to. It's possible that she played on a "back-up" violin, but I doubt it, since back-up violins are generally reserved for outdoors.

    Excellent cellist! It’s wonderful how “right” Francesco got it. (Also how odd that, after Stradivari copied him, history accorded the credit for inventing the modern cello to Stradivari rather than to Ruggeri.) Ruggeri’s brilliant insight was not to proportion his instrument to the musical range needed, but rather to the human hand. Wound strings, recently developed in Brescia, opened up possibilities for a satisfactory bass response from the shorter stop length.
