    Just had to check, but she clearly did wonderfully at her audition because she was the recipient of the Frank Beebe grant! She certainly deserves it.

    What Zander suggests to this extremely talented cellist is exactly how to play this movement, and for me music in general. I do disagree with Mr. Zander occasionally (the tempo of the first movement of the Mozart clarinet trio for example), but this is exceptionally beautiful and just the right way to play this and so many other things. This cellist is a real artist and she understands what he is doing so completely.

    Strange things is happening in this session. Zander said - after Christine Lees first playing - that IT FELT too slow. Actually the difference between her first and second playing is 3,1 sec or: the second playing is 1,35% faster, which is not a SIGNIFICANT difference in my opinion. But when HE accompanied on the piano himself, he actually played the first part (a little less than 2 minutes) SLOWER than the part was played in her first playing, about 4 sec - which is quite a lot, I would say!. Christine Lee claimed after having Zander at the piano, that it was MUCH EASIER to play, but I dont think that had anything to do with the slower tempo. But he then said about music that the secret was "the disappearing of the eights-notes". Maybe there is some kind of an answer to all this in that expression, I dont know. Her playing, though, was beautiful - both times!

      I think Benjamin Zander means that the 8th note impulses disappear as the musician turns the slur into one impuls where the length of each included note can be freely interpreted.

      thats absolutely not what he said. He just went straight to the point and said the tempo felt awkward and too slow. Players of that caliber can totally be flexible and adjust this kind of parameter with little effort. What requires the more time and practice are the technical aspects and the mastery of the sound but her playing is basically flawless and he really doesn't need to point that out.

    She is the second cellist I've seen on these that has an unusual bow-hold, more like that of a violinist. I've tried it, and found that my control becomes terribly compromised. I am an amateur (no real talent), so is this a technique I just missed out on? Is this because the sonata was written for the arpeggione originally?

    • @TaylorTheOtter
      @TaylorTheOtter 5 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Lukasia I think qwaqwa1960 probably means to use the vibrato to accentuate certain parts more (like you see at 8:37). By using vibrato a bit more sparingly, thus increasing the "contrast" between accentuated parts, you can guide the listener emotionally and make it a more moving performance. But, as with all music, it's a matter of preference.
