Pablo Casals is my great uncle. I cannot express how much it means to be able to hear his words and thoughts in his own voice. He inspires me as a musician and beyond.

[@MyChannel-ml7ol]

He is my great great great uncle! This is the only interview I’ve seen where he is speaking in English, and it is very very great to hear his views on music

[@dominicmartinez4934]

Do you also play cello?

[@hellomyfriends9740]

For real yall need to inherit his playing skills right now.

[@terrydowning5055]

Thats wonderfull

[@HajoHeinz]

Who are you?

[@stephanebelizaire3627]

Vivat for the Master Sr Pablo Casals !

[@marthasiegel7115]

A million thanks to KZbin for making precious interviews like this accessible to the entire world. As an ardent Pablo Casals fan for my entire life, for his cello playing and his humanitarian endeavors and expressions, this is a fantastic gift for cellists like me and non-cellists alike.

[@DarioCastagno]

martha siegel I recently discovered that he married a relative of mine

[@axelsohn1454]

A very, very important interview. Thank you for posting!

[@JulienGaudfroy]

That old recording he plays for her after 11"20, highest level cello playing ever. Tone control, vibrato control, glissandi control, out of this world singing quality. The quality of his bowing, he could teach everyone.

[@jonathanstabler4823]

My old cello teacher, Alexander Kok, was a student of Don Casals. I have a photostat of his markings of the cello suites that he used for practice. Very emotional to hear from "the old man"(as Bobby Kok used to call him) himself and identify things passed down through his student. What a great humanitarian too, I had no idea. ❤️

[@walmirbrito7924]

Pablo Casals in 1955 he was 79 years old, and still playing cello! That's amazing. I Loved see this interview

[@pilatescarolinenorth4955]

This was an absolute treat! What wonderful footage.

[@JLGrant-rp3ke]

I love to see and hear this cello grandmaster. My own teachers revered him and rightly so. As for the interviewer....

[@yurdp]

At the time, a living past-master. Yet he was still humble about his own abilities.

[@JayFrederick]

incredible to watch. thank you so much.

[@JCMH]

9:52 "Serenate of Schubert". Casals speaks about Ständchen, a famous Schubert piece.

[@kalitondias8309]

Sou fã desse senhorzinho do violoncelo.

[@martinazivai]

What a pleasant person to hear 🌹🙏🏼

[@fatimacanche9081]

Desde mi mas tierna infancia se quien es ,Genio del siglo xx Mexico

[@steveg219]

This is wonderful

[@WladekFoltynski]

Pau Casals - my great inspiration as a human and musician. If you have an opportunity, visit his museum (Villa Museu Pau Casals) - only an hour by train from Barcelona.

[@Brianbeesandbikes]

what an astounding humanitarian ....

[@rosajucglaserra4506]

Moltes gràcies! Thanks so much! He lived in Prades because he was catalan, not spanish

[@yuyunfei9994]

感谢分享，让我能认识这位上世纪的大师，尤其是在现在这个充满不确定性和动荡的时代，尤为珍贵。

[@lisasez]

Thank you..

[@JCMH]

9:47 "Ave Maria, of Gounod".

[@resolutestct]

There was a time when this was what made up part of the television programming day...

[@DaveYostCom]

8:11 at six he fell for the cello, charming story

[@JCMH]

6:17 The "inaudible" word is Gesellschaft, a word of the German language. Casals refers to the Bach Gesellschaft Ausgabe.

[@bachshafran508]

1973년, 카잘스와의 만남은 내 인생을 완전히 바꿔주었고 여지껏 행복을 주고있다.

[@emilioargente913]

Catalunya i España tenen un deute molt gran amb Pau Casals.

[@barrybarry6592]

He had no connection with Spain

[@andy2000sydney]

Domestic and international politics like Pau describes is still the same in 2023

[@Cellothere123]

What’s the piece on the record that he played ? I don’t get why she hated it, it was beautiful

[@meyerbeer13]

Mendelssohn did not discover Bach. Bach's solo violin sonatas were published in 1803. Mendelssohn's great aunt Sarah Levi was the greatest harpsichordist of her day.

[@JoeSnodgrassworks]

He may have meant discovered in the sense of someone who really, truly understood Bach for the first time.

[@omarabouafach3493]

[@egjohanns]

😊🌸

[@miguelbraga4767]

Does anyone know the name of the piece from the recording at 11:50?? Thank you!

[@juantomas_palomeque]

I didn't get it either

[@schema8352]

no idea, glad he's still excited about the same things we are though. Those shifts ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@BB-xm8jc]

Please someone! I have the same question.

[@ruudmeester71]

I found it. It is "Oh, dry those tears" by Theresa del Riego You can find it on spotify and imslp!

[@alexw.4434]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/hH_NaHZqbLx0mtk by Pablo Casals himself

[@miguelangelzapata4106]

Su musica te llega directo al corazon. Me encanto su firmeza contra el dictador y genocida Franco!

[@hellomyfriends9740]

First of all, I pretended I didn't know who Bach was. 😂😂😂 What were those books he pointed to that said Bach?

[@lluiscalvet329]

Pau Casals not Pablo Casals... Please say the name right, it is PAU CASALS

[@loloforge2841]

Well the name Pau pronounced in Catalan, but in castellano was pronounced Pablo (that’s why some people refer to him that way). He made a huge history in North America as well and established himself and died in Puerto Rico and during his time there he was called Don Pablo Casals. And that’s the name he used. All the monuments, Symphonic Orchestra and academies have his name in Puerto Rico as Don Pablo Casals.

[@lluiscalvet329]

I know he spent a lot of time abroad but honestly I am sure you know that personal names are not translated.

[@loloforge2841]

@@lluiscalvet329 He allowed that. He approved it himself, so that’s how it goes. Many places carry his name that way.

[@whizper92]

PAU Casals, not Pablo.

[@revelalmighty7546]

Pau, Pablo, Paul, Paolo - are all variants of the same name, Pau is the catalan variant.and Pablo is the castilian version. Castilian is also referred as standard spanish. He lived his final years and died in Puerto Rico where he is a considered an adoptive son, because his mother was born in the island and for all his great contributions. Founder of the Puerto Rico Symphony orchestra and Conservatory of Music. He is honored every year with the Pablo Casals Festival in San Juan. A True Genius...

[@adrialayola1539]

[@johorn2887]

the cello sounds like a chair being moved across a wooden floor.

[@yotugoacc]

Exact so !!

[@rainbow30330]

Gerade so !!

[@violoncello7061]

C'est just !!

[@1982violinist]

That stupid woman was badly on my nerve throughout the whole thing

[@barrybarry6592]

Absolutely insulting introduction, Pau was and always will be CATALAN. Stop the insults, not just to a great freedom fighter but also a proud people, who established a parliament in the 11th. Century
