An afternoon of cello lessons with Anner Bijlsma 

Yeah you don't have to be an aso to teach. He was very gentle.

Keep playing, you are creating beauty. There is no weariness in your soul.

@@jacquelinegernay4291 ............Thank you Jacqueline for your encouragement.............When I first started the cello I'd listen to Jackie du Pre 's Elgar Concerto, etc.............and no doubt you too have listened to Jackieyou since you carry the same name............ my history so far is to start, stop, start, stop, start, stop.............taking my rented cello back to the rental shop about 4 times so far.....................well, guess what , I finally bought one of my own which I'm sure will give me stronger dedication to learn it..............

I am 53 years old, having taken cello lessons for one year. What is the point? I know i am definitely more capable now than when i started. Remember even the masters are constantly working on the sound. You never really stop learning, you never really get there. Enjoy the process of life and developing your passion. Go back to where you started and hear how much better it is now. Stay strong, stay brave.

Above all enjoy music, and keep practicing.

Are you still playing?

Yes, that was a gem ! and i am not a cello instructor : )

Thanks; very interesting,very informative. I hope it’s loaned often.

Cello Sonata No.3 in A Major, Op.69 - I. Allegro ma non tanto

Souvenir de spa

Not at all, it is a great show piece, Souvenir de Spa, by Servais, a famous Belgian cellist

From the credits at the end, I'd guess Anastasia Feruleva
