Schumann Cello Concerto 1st Mov.

Sejun returned from N.Y. about a week ago, but having run out of short pieces of cello music to practice, I let him practice playing it with the orchestra on CD to kill the time until we find a new piece to practice.
What surprised me most is that though he has had his hands off this concerto since last year, he recovered his memory within a day or two and played it by heart after about 5 times of practicing it on CD.
In my opinion, imitating a great cellist is as useful as studying with a teacher though I know some teachers are very much opposed to it.
They only want their students to imitate their teaching and technique with their bowings and fingerings only.

@Schtofenbach Thank you for your detailed advice.Your point of view is really profefessional. Believe it or not, I have made every efforts within my power to make him read the music but so far failed. He cannot learn music with his eyes but only by ears like some people who are suffering from "desultory reading" or "colour blindness". He is such a quick learner that he has re-practiced it only for a week or so since he came back from N,Y. That's why to become a cellist or not is a question.

He has improved a lot his technique. He is more properly powerful, and quick . I think that it is time to work now on the tuning, so that he becomes a wonderful and autodidact student. He can do it. The problem starts since he takes very difficult pieces and hard to play them and be tuned. So to my unprofessional point of view- he can take the harder parts and work them separately on the tuning to improve them.. Then he could play, only those worked parts. He has an amazing memory.
