Cello practice fortunately never ends - in conversation with cellist Nicholas Jones

This time I catch up with my previous teacher, Nicholas Jones, for a talk about playing and teaching the cello.

Being a cellist often goes hand in hand with being a cello teacher. Here we talk about how our cello practice and our teaching keep on affecting each other.

We touch on

• key moments of enlightenment in our playing and teaching

• how all students are different from each other

• what 'work-life balance' might mean as a musician

• the fact that our practice never ends

We need to play what we want to hear.

And don't forget to listen to the Cello Concerto by Lutosławski.
