Thank you so much for this. I’m playing a little over a year now, trying not to pull my hair out but also loving practicing and listening to so much music. I work as a psychotherapist and have two clients who have parkinsons who are pretty active and participate in dance and exercise programs such as this. It’s wonderful to hear you talk about how much you give and how much they give you. Kudos! And I love watching your videos although I’m still grappling with the backward extension AND trying to keep stay in first position (my hand keeps slipping down down down)! Thanks again!

I really enjoyed this, thank you Richard! I'm a cellist but sadly can't play the Bach Suites anymore as I have Parkinson's!
This is so moving. I have no words to say how a great person you are (beyond your high musical quality)
