Alban Gerhardt - Oregon Bach Festival 2011

Video excerpts from Cellist Alban Gerhardt's performance of Johann Sebastian Bach Suite for Solo Cello in D Major, No. 6 BWV 1012

"Undoubtedly one of the most brilliant cellists of his generation" --Cincinnati Enquirer

Technically demanding yet capable of deeply emotional expression, Bach's solo cello suites are among music's greatest challenges. Already a master of these classic works, Alban Gerhardt pairs the six suites with those Bach inspired from the pen of Benjamin Britten.

A fitting tribute to the American empire. The TSA broke this man's bow in the name of security. This is what happens when a nation chooses safety over freedom. All things beautiful and unique are considered suspicious and must be vetted.

Apparently Touch Some Ass broke this guy's bow >:( unforgivable!

You have to wonder how so many voters could not see the connection between Saul Alinsky's book, RULES for RADICAL and Obama.This has been Obama's play book.In a major speech focused on Obama, titled "A Springtime of Possibility," Communist Party USA Chief Sam Webb declared the US is now on the road to Socialism." i disagree. the US started down the road toward Socialism in 1913. It started with Edward Mandel House and his book, Philip Dru,Administrator. Blueprint for A Socialist United States.

I would like to apologize to Alban Gerhardt on behalf of the United States for the idiot(s) in the TSA who damaged your instrument. This country is dying a slow cultural death and it is a shame that we can't even muster some respect for the talent that comes out and still manages to make life worth living.

Thats what happens when our highly corrupted government gets in the way. they hire people who barely made it trough high school to be in charge of the countries "security". The most reasonable way to deal with this TSA is to grab whoever owns more shares and execute them in public, in my opinion. :)

[Maza Chante]

TSA = Tyrannical States of America

[leogamerbako]

Disgusting tsa....just plain sick.

[LifeLibertyNow]

Fuckin TSA always rummaging through people's shit.

[SatansShockTroop]

[SatansShockTroop]
