@Omicronmu89 She was decent in my opinion; are you a cellist? We had two/three better cellists at the time, but we have so many concerts that we like to rotate the first row (top 4).
@Sanstout I'm not saying she's a bad player in general. This definitely isn't the easiest piece, but the quality of the the performance- her performance- was subpar in my opinion. I've played cello for less than a year. I've been playing violin for about 12 years and viola for 5.
I think she's worrying too much about intonation. As soon as the concerto gets moving, there's no time to worry, and her playing improves as it goes along.
She's not very good. They couldn't find a better cellist in the orchestra? :\

@Caffeinefish This is true; she was soooo stressed about this performance because we had Brussilovsky performing and a lot of recruiters that night.
