This man was a true genius especially during his best playing years. I heard him several times in London during those years.I will never forget him.He was also an endlessly kind and good man.A true humanitarian. He inspired the whole world.

[@aquaticko]

Not that I was ever good enough to even think of playing this piece, but even if I was, to play it IN FRONT OF Rostropovich? Death. Just death. Speaking of which, RIP, sir. You are dearly missed. :(

[@Elainelps0421]

Mstislav Rostropovich has been my idol since I was a child. He is the greatest cellist to have ever lived. Period.

[@drjasonjcampbell]

THis is SO genius. I ENVY having a mentor of that caliber sharing a LIFETIME of Wisdom. Everything he says is totally Priceless! Brilliant!!

[@TheTradge]

An absolute master of his craft, and such a tragic loss to the world of music. We are truly blessed to have these videos of his teachings, as well as recordings and videos of his spectacular performance abilities!

[@DescendingA]

I saw Monika Leskovar playing Dvorak's Cello Concerto about a month ago! And that was the most sensual, virtuosic Dvorak I ever heard!

[@zzzxtreme]

RIP rostropovich a great humble man

[@novagerio9244]

Wonderful, wonderful, utterly wonderful. God bless Slava! ❤️

[@clusterguard]

I am not a musician - but I have had the opportunity to work with "the Rostropivich of my (scientific) field" ... what a marvel to have such an opportunity ... it shall change the student forever and make a very good to excellent artist.

[@tullochgorum]

The great man! Finest performer I ever saw. Wonderful to see him teaching - he gets straight to the heart of it...

[@Victor-im9kj]

HIS VOICE IS SO ADORABLE!!!

[@Jorcello]

Hahaha, everytime I hear this man speak I do not expect such a voice! He was such a charming man - I only wish I could have heard him play in person! Lovely video - thank you very much for the post.

[@IrishVader]

What a guy. Love :) NB to the people who don't understand him, watch it twice. I found that helped alot.

[@RabigaPiano]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have one of Rostropovich's last master class that he gave at the Moscow Conservatory. It's really great. I'll try to uploading this.

[@tookurjaerbs]

I don't know who this man is, or where he came from but after only a few minutes of speaking you can tell he is a one of a kind genius. Amazing!!

[@andaluciaenverano5853]

English was his second language. In Russian it is completely ok to say "must" to a woman. We should be grateful that this great musician spoke at least some English. Many of Russians didn't have chance to learn foreign languages at that time.

[@Hanslicker]

gracias maestro! siempre estarás entre los grandes de todos los tiempos.. que bueno.."guan" "tu" "ti" "fooo"....

[@brianpark406]

He sounds like Stitch from that one Disney movie, just with a Russian accent l0l

[@vladiinsky]

this man was so inspiring...

[@warsd4]

Rostropovich was absolutely amazing. What an inspiration. I can''t imagine how that student felt playing in front of him.

[@margaritamargarita5602]

Genius!!!

[@infiniteFinality]

Hes so.... charismatic....... one of my fav's X3

[@Ga7atTown]

my God he is amazing...

[@questionful]

hearing geniuses talk is very enlightening

[@salaminho2353]

Is a Genius of Genius

[@laurids2007]

I am not English or American - I was born in Brazil and I speak English since I was 11 years old. However, I could understand each word he said. Well, I guess it's because I was once married to a Russian, violinist, à propos, who speaks many languages. I guess I got used to the accent of the Russians. LOL LOL

[@OrdinaryCritic]

@Jasonms1978 Rostropovich was the inspiration of many composers. He was able to be thr first to play over 100 pieces, all of which was dedicated to him. That expanded the cello repertoire--in fact, he is the one who expanded it the most. Composers won't care dedicating that much pieces for him if he is not the best. That is my opinion.

[@Stradtastic]

He kinda sounds like Gollum

[@sunyuloveu]

Master!!!!

[@kevalenoxx]

I wish i could have met him!! he seems funny!

[@lightsilverdust]

@kolopaper123 He says that when you get on the stage you should imagine that you are a composer, who is composing a piece of music instead of thinking of yourself as just a cello player. I think he means that you should 'feel' the music or maybe try to imagine what composer felt when he was composing this peace and try to convey this feeling to the public.

[@OrdinaryCritic]

@Jasonms1978 I believe Mr. Casals is his role model (based on how Rostropovich speaks about him). Yo Yo Ma said that Rostropovich is one of his inspirations after hearing him play at the Berlin wall. And one of the duo 2Cellos, Stjepan Hauser, is one of his last students before he died. But, for me, he plays most of the pieces for cello perfectly--but not all.

[@cellogeek95]

"Slava, what do you think, wich weather was outside of his room in the street in the moment he composed? I told Richter I was young and very stupid. You know Slava, in this particular moment I was not in Vienna with Brahms. And he tells me: You know, I am sure that in this moment it was raining in the street. And he came to the window and sees very grey clouds and rain, and he goes to the piano and starts composing." Well that´s the story he tells, it´s such a great story :)

[@JD..........]

-level of abstraction/understanding -level of analysis -instinctual vs. analyzed -role of musician: public servant + composer’s messenger -choose: insulated(self)vs. connected (crowd)

[@pipilajn]

I was very young and stupid and I told Richter: "You know, particularly in that moment I wasn't in Wien with Brahms."

[@u2bvideo]

gostaria de ajudar, mas não sei como eu posso adicionar a legenda!

[@MaQuGo119]

Thank you very much!

[@AlexeyMatushevsky]

i think she become happy after all this end up.

[@shnbwmn]

He's a world class talent, but I just can't take him seriously with that voice.

[@MichaSchlechtriem]

A talent? Just grow up.You know nothing. Maybe you are a Talent? YOU do not take him seriously because of his voice? Many people are blessed to have listened to this voice. You are not one of them. And no talent.

[@PaulJones-oj4kr]

His voice? Don't be ridiculous!!! He is NOT a talent; he was the greatest virtuoso cellist of the age. What's that MATTER with you???!!!

[@BetterMe981]

@@PaulJones-oj4kr😂😂… and 26 upvotes.

[@NunoBarbosaCello]

Rostropovich is fabulous. :) But I must say, I like the sound of Monika Leskovar and she's really cute and sensual. :)

[@ericdecarli]

@u2bvideo Também não faço idéia, mas tem como passar sei lá, por e-mail??? Sinal de fumaça?? hehe... gostaria muito de poder compreender o que "nosso amigo" está falando. Obrigado

[@deramr]

The prim and proper way of doing a high german "guten Tag" would aspirate the g at the end. He's not off at all. God rest his soul...

[@abcdnike]

a truly master, i adore him! but his english is very hard2understand, but i dont care, hes great

[@dascello121]

is the rest of this masterclass on KZbin?

[@11Artash]

Thanks much!

[@ThiefsStory]

He is the Lengend of cellist. XD once best in the world

[@gunmenow]

very inspirational story about Richter and Slava!

[@munkybrain]

i can't really hear alot of what he's saying but i think he's actually talking about making the audience into a performance tool. dat's damn interesting

[@Jasonms1978]

@PRODIGYat43 Thats very true. We all have our favorite opinions.

[@vladiinsky]

@RabigaPiano when??? :))

[@goldencricket]

oh my god, he;s yoda! listen to his voice... the music flows around us, unites us, binds us... lol

[@MaQuGo119]

What is the namo of the song on 1:07?

[@ericdecarli]

Legendas em portugues, por favor!!

[@D0g63rt]

In the beginning of the video they spell his name as "Rostropovitch" with that 't' at the end. Isn't that incorrect?

[@pitsplaylist]

In a way, he is our father, for all of us...

[@cellomar87]

Hi MaQuGo119! It is famous Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104, by Czech romantic composer Antonín Dvořák. Greetings from Czech republic! :-)

[@TheLucasigor]

What is the concert that she plays in 5:48? please

[@lennartkwjdjbrlr]

its the same concerto, only a little later😂

[@GodinGamer]

i would kill god if he gave me back rosptropovich as my masterclass.....

[@Philipppppppppppppp]

@Lucito77 its beacuse he sounds so wise

[@cellocarrot]

He's Rostopovich. It's in the title!

[@celloprof]

PART 8__ and we come to the window and see very very gray and rain and were coming to piano and start to compose. You know he opened for me feeling and after that I understand how I must play. I feel that and you know music sound what you produced, you ?very toward to it? your very very temparent to but you play mostly this concerto just one color. THE END-------------------I DID'T GET EVERYTHING Rostropovich said CORRECT BUT I TRIED, lol :^D

[@user-xy3vm5uh6r]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Skaed]

@RabigaPiano do it!! :D

[@cantante189]

I don't understand marking my question as unhelpful or negative. I will not cease asking questions, as that is one way that helps to learn. As I stated, I am not a cellist. She didn't seem timid to me at all. Thank you for your suggestion. I will do that.

[@leewinslett2592]

What is the name of the piece he teases at 6:35?

[@cellist6453]

Brams cello sonata e moll

[@ericdecarli]

Legendas em Portugrês, alguém, por favor?????????

[@celloprof]

Now that I have some picture for this very talented young artist now we do now is start from the begining..NONONO-PAPLLL! 2BARS2BAR! You know Uhh of course you are so talented I must speak with you in very high letter but 1st I must tell a story of some very "high bligh?" you know I have some conductors of whom I've speaking about technique of conducting about for example "A. linesdorf" a conductor I come speak to him about "mother?"and then ask him How make very strong one as conductor 0- 2:04

[@TheLfwjo]

Nice Grandpa! :D

[@BBRENTTAGHAPP]

@Lucito77 OMG YOU'RE RIGHT! haha

[@sergeikuo]

@Lucito77 : indeed

[@vladiinsky]

@snailderby this is a poor description of Rostropovich. it is like saying for Michaelangelo that he was a top 5 sculptor of his time ... - Rostropovich was a genius, a force that influenced classical music for more than 50 years and not only he was arguably the greatest cellist of all time, he was an excellent concert piano accompanist, conductor and a composer (not so acomplished, but he studied with Shostakovich! ) ... certainly one of the most interesting figures in Russian art history.

[@celloprof]

@xbasket12x That made me laugh, X^D. Well it turned out that Rostropovich had a BIG mouth, lol! People complained that they couldn't understand what he was saying, so I wrote it all down, I just didn't realize it was going to be soo much. I kind of took it as a challenge, LOL! ;^)

[@alaalfa8839]

If people read between lines...he doesnt judge her or her technique, she is great...he just says his opinion in general how to become better and better, during years of training.....but maybe he should say some direct stuff.

[@germanparedes3509]

Who is the cellist?

[@vladiinsky]

Monika Leskovar

[@MichaSchlechtriem]

Sabine Müller.

[@jaimearanzabal5134]

Ostrich Porridge is an AMAZING actor, I can’t wait for Lilo and Stitch 3!!!🤑🤑😘😘😘😘😘😍😍😍😍😍

[@rahulkhanna144]

happy birthday song

[@maxcohen13]

ehh...come again?

[@jrkevinfang]

@celloprof I think he says "Mahler"

[@Jasonms1978]

@SilwerHawk1 I grew up playing cello. Could you explain why you say he is the best Cello player? In my opinion Pau(some say Pablo) Casals is and was the best cello player in the world. I think even better than Yo-Yo Ma. Have you ever heard of the Duo 2 Cellos?

[@kohlrudi9838]

jak ti to vis ? ;-)

[@cellistopher]

he was! jar jar binks ;-)

[@manofthehoff]

Don't question Rostropovich.

[@celloprof]

PART 6__Now play for this rehearsal #10. Play. Thats music for yourself for your heart, your complete ?langal? and play only for you this music that must be enormous difference thats absolute contrast, you know of course in this place I think thats ?drafecateers? I think about something very sad but he alone I tell you that enormous help to artist to musician just imagination are not inside the music, but something around me once when I was very very young I was rehearsing ?

[@Pen2AndyP]

a dach is a roof isn't it?

[@sergeikuo]

Can anyone put on the subtitle in English? I can't understand his weird English... (or they should have told him to speak russian in the first place)

[@TheXStephen1]

Okey, I THINK he is speaking english. But guest what?! I can't understand him! Can someone please convert this to transcript?!

[@ayrtonvalenzuela]

He speak english, french and ruse in same dialogue

[@celloprof]

PART 4__ You play everything in your part with great impairment, but this music that something very important speech to the public...this... that you come to the public and felt something very important for the public, but you play thats for your yourself. You must play, thats very interesting because sometimes we play a ?pizzorde? for public just appeal to public, like a composer. Some times you must you play for yourself and public make privilege ?? Uh, see you in ?lokehole?

[@xbasket12x]

@celloprof Damn you wrote a lot

[@andykim234]

The funny thing is that Rostropovich makes a weird or funny (I can't tell) at 0:57. But it's funny.

[@celloprof]

Part 3__ you know you make so fantastic you'll ?share the hearts?, but if you like coming to TOP, you must understand you hear in the stage instead of composer, but composer composes not only your parts. Much music, he gets together around you around you and you must be coming to the stage instead of composer and compose in the public these pieces compose. You must make this idea 1st and others play with emotional idea.

[@TheXStephen1]

I'm confused! What is she suppose to be doing if SHE probably can't understand him?! If I were her, I'll be so embarrassed right now.

[@Arscell0]

+Aliki Wen He wanted to show her 3 things. 1. Make a stronger intro with stronger visual & sound effect of the bow 2. look at the audience at the beginning 3. look down and play for your self at sensitive and emotional moments He was talking about an appearance on the stage.

[@RyanDubHd]

Arslan ... Actually he was talking about making music with the audience, talking to It, and playing "around" the music, not to simply look up or look to the audience... And is not a "stronger visual" in the beginning, he said She had to make faster movement to the string in order to reach a fuller sound anyway really interesting

[@JarodRebuck]

1:20 "Jerry, Jerry, Jerry...!"

[@movett]

the lady looks as if she's trying to suppress her laughter

[@c.i.a.4618]

Hes Russian dont u know his the greatest CELLIST!!!

[@andykim234]

The things that's funny is that Rostropovich makes a weird sound at 0:57.

[@MyJPanda]

did someone asked him to give a masterclass, or he volunteered?)) because girl look surprised and kind of "what this crazy russian wants of me?"))

[@SuperPagt]

Lol imagine some random gets up and gives the girl a lesson He's the most known 20th century cellist

[@JazzcelloNet]

He sounds like Yoda :)

[@celloprof]

PART 7__Sonata by Brahms 1st movement, you know this. I was rehearsing with ?Alflalf Alicter? and Alicter asked me, Slava, what do you think, which ?verder? was outside of his room in this stilt in a moment when he composes? I talk to Alicter when He was young and very stupid, I talk to alicter I you know I love Slava Particularly in this moment I was not ?in vien? with Brams ?? thats why I don't do each ?verder? and he tell me you know I am sure that in this moment it rained in this street,

[@celloprof]

PART 5__ not through alone you alone. You not play for public, you play for you, inside of you for your soul and that you thats not change, but me change. Thats for example you must see public and makes speech to public from beginning 2Bars before Miguel 2 Bars! ... 1234 now NO NO you may hear just go 1234! BAA! EXACTLY (she plays) look here look here! Da... la da da For public for public not for yourself yes?! anthera so beautiful here 1234 (she plays) FOPR YOU FOR YOU.

[@PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD]

He's telling her to hold up her head and play for the public and not to to be too self-absorbed.

[@BetterMe981]

No, not exactly. He just wants her to be aware that she is playing for the public, for others, doesn’t matter where her head or face is pointing. He did that for effect just so she could see it at the moment.
