  • The best, The Best, I was going to NY to visit him (66th) until he past away, RIP He was not only a cellist, a teacher, was a real Master

  • Harvey Shapiro, Beautiful as always. I was at this performance in Victoria. I believe it was the encore after a performance of the Rachmaninov Sonata. I hope whoever has the rest of the concert will attempt to post Harvey's Rachmaninov as well. The video would have been made by Herb Schaffer who was also the recording technician.

    Incidentally, it should also be mentioned that the pianist who gave such a sensitive accompaniment was Jane Hayes. She was 8 months pregnant at the time.
