He makes the cello sound like butter.

I have watched this everyday for the past week. It's so brilliant.

Search for his Kodaly cello sonata on SoundCloud. He is magnificent.

some of his facail expressions are just... awesome. lol

[symphonicrevolution]

Weird question ... is Sebastian really tall? That cello looks tiny compared to him, but maybe it's the cello's proportions, not his!

[Fullmetal1890P]

@symphonicrevolution I just met him today, he is rather tall.

it must always be awkward for the page turner just kinda....sitting there. XD

@ShadowDwellerXXX LOL. . . it's not awkward. In addition to performing in college (I was a music major), I turned pages many times too. It's actually an honor to get to do it. Plus, you get front row seats to some great performances. If there's any awkwardness, it's at applause time, when you just kinda sit there, or slink off the stage unobtrusively. :-)

i just watched the movie "the Soloist" the other day and didnt know how magnificent of an instrument the cello is and the wonderful noises that protrude from it.

i havent appreciated beethovens cello oevre for a long time...it was all about bach, popper, tschaikowsky...but this is wonderfully moving, strong and expressive, just beethoven...love it !
