In this episode we play the Allegro Appassionato by Camille Saint-Saens. This is a rather lively passionate and exciting piece. Part of its passion is in its abrupt changes of tempo and loudness. Even though it is exciting, it is in B minor and hence in a somewhat sad mode. Also many of its melodies come down rather than go up. We hope you enjoy it.

I love your playing! amazing! Is cello your only instrument?

[cellojourney]

@Shrimpfriedricegirl Thanks. Yes cello is my only instrument. I do a bit of singing as well.

I am a high school student and I love your playing. However, it will be more

compelling if you could interact with your accompanist. I have been being criticized for that in many school music competitions. No offence.

@rodneyleung Thanks. We try to listen to one another. Because of the video I have to sit a certain way and it is not easy for me to see him. :)

Congrats for both musicians! The beauty you express can and should be used as antidotes against the meaningless aspects of today's world! Beautiful! Inspiring!

[Jasaxos]

[SweetUnheardMelody]

A truly lovely interpretation.

[MickeyBug8]

This may sound a bit strange but your facial expressions kind of remind me of Yo Yo Ma. And your sound is so beautiful!

[TheDayZs]
