About Me

Gregor Piatigorsky, the Russian cello virtuoso, used to talk about "tasting the blood" of music -- music as destiny. "Nobody can really choose music as a profession like you can choose to become a dentist," he once said. "It chooses you. So actually from the beginning you have very little to say. You are taken by it."
