  • hey guys, who cares if Bell is better, or Perlman or Hahn or Zukerman...ect.

    It's music, not sports, there is no first place, you don't score points. You don't get a trophy for being the best.

    It's art.

    So shut up and listen, if you don't like it, thats just fine too. So don't buy his CD's, but I suggest you stop wasting your time debating over something so pointless. You forget the reason why music exists in the first place, it's not a competition.

  • Thank you for this comment, you're absolutely right. I'm a principal cellist in a French orchestra but also an 'amateur'- suppose I mean I still love savouring performances while staying as 'un-damaged' by being a professional as possible. Anyway, am grateful there are people like you around with a healthy point of view on the way we appreciate musical performance. Sorry this is a bit long

  • O.K.-- it seems awfully fast.

    But why bother criticizing :34? Or posting it??

  • definitely

  • This is my view completely. Why should we allow ourselves to be tainted by competetiveness? We forget the very reason we love music in the first place; unbridled emotion and freedom of expression. There is nothing 'free' about rivalry and snobbery. I sing and study music for the love of it and believe i always will.

  • where is it?

  • You can't really tell from the footage.Probably either Simon Mulligan or Jeremy Denk. Both are fantastic...yes, I do know he has been accompanied by many people via piano...but if I had to make a guess it would be either of the two men I listed.

  • I find this all a bit unfair. Josh is someone who, like any human, can disappoint at times. Yet, whenever I 've been on the verge of writing him off, he has (granted-with greater intervals) always astounded me with the high of art he sometimes achieves. I think he has much to offer. We listened to Menuhin 40 years after he lost his best abilities, for those special moments he could create...
