During his Moscow student days he was taking lessons from Rostropovich. He tried to buy a tape recorder on the black market and was arrested. (The lessons were so brilliant, and his mentor so legendary, he felt it was criminal NOT to try to preserve them.) He had to do hard labor for 2 years, with no cello. Eventually he feigned insanity, and was smuggled out of Russia and started a new life in Israel. I got to interview him 10 years ago, when he was touring with his daughter, Lily (a pianist.) He had recorded the cello suites (6 suites of 6 movements each) 4 times in his career. He said he could not promise he would not do it again. Also, he confirmed with me that surrounding his present yard is a custom iron fence, with five horizontal bars like the music staff, and attired with the notes to the 5th Suite Sarabande. I asked him if he ever made a recording that later gave him dissatisfaction. "Yes," he shot back instantly in his thick Russian accent, "Every one of them, the moment the last note stopped." I tied these Suites to my heart with all my might 35 years ago. I love this recording.
Thank you so much for this comment. I previously had no idea why he was arrested, but I feel he certainly had reason for wanting to preserve the lessons.
Thank you very much for taking the time and providing this insight. I now have even more appreciation for this man. The love of this blessing from God is even deeper.
Don't know how i missed this one, Ive been watching the other one where they are not all continuous. Looks like this one is climbing up the results when you search. Best Bach Suite's ever recorded IMO.
i dont know if there could be another intrusment that im capable of loving more than the cello, its so beautiful, connected to the one playing it and this man is expressing its beauty just right 💗💗 it makes me feel magic, like im floating

This is one of the most beautiful things I"ve seen a human being do. Complex and beautiful music all done by memory, and though my ear is untrained, to me it sounds like the original composer wanted it to sound. I wonder though, the amount of actual training and work to get to this skill level, does he dream in musical notes? And, after an obvious lifetime of being intimate with this music, does the music cease to be music and become a living thing? You know, I've listened to audio tracks if just this sort of thing, but honestly, watching someone perform it, puts the listening experience in a whole other category. I am well pleased! Thank you for sharing.
He is playing all this music by memory just awesome and beautiful
Great legacy for the humankind.

Bons tempos
Amazing. ❤️
Habeo dicere, sonum instrumenti satis aliquantulus est. Valde ingeniosus est patrator.
É um mestre
Maravilhoso!!!!❤
Sublime.🎉😢❤❤❤
I like how he plays more than yoyoma. Feels far more emotional
Também acho
As someone else said, much more emotional than Yo-Yo Ma. Yeah, probably because of the labor camp and the fearing for his life etc.
Great
