haha He does at times emote as though he were committing harakiri! (Yes...I know...he's Chinese and seppuku is Japanese, but it fits nonetheless.)

That said, I like both the piece and his playing. :)

You speak like music is a competition.

true, but 1. I stick with my comment, Du Pre is better, 2. I went to a live concert and saw Yo Yo Ma, I have nothing against him, and 3. Music isn't a competition but I'm just saying my opinion. I'll stick with it that Du Pre is better

@usatmusicpatb Any proof he's pretending though? How do you know he actually doesn't feel it?
