Beautiful music but also a little history about the artist. Solid episode.

I love the cello and always stop to listen whether a piece is played by the legend Yo-Yo Ma or new talents like Sheku Kanneh-Mason. This piece by JS Bach gets me emotional everytime.

“I’m not trying to prove anything other than this is the best I can do.” A beautiful chat about a beautiful song.

I haven't listened to the On Being episode (yet) but this is a fave I was reminded of when I saw that echoed. I have a young, beginning cello player in the family and since hearing this he's been teaching himself the Prelude performed here. Truly inspiring!
