Phrasing and articulation are impeccable. Technique melded organically to the music. A wonderful musical journey

Before completing my undergrad, I was working on the 1st mvt. only. I loved it. I did not complete the last 2 movements, knowing it was not on the senior recital. This performance legato sections a wonderful. Stylistically, I had to adjust to some of the rapid phrases having been used to the recording over the years. I was hoping for a bit of separation even though the tempo was zooming through certain passages unexpectedly. I know he is an accomplished musician and do not want to sound as though I am a critic. He is a skilled talent and his ability to play classical compositions are remarkable. I meant to listen to 2 minutes due to being up late! I listened to all and am grateful to hear this performance.

Interprétation d'un grand raffinement Dns cette œuvre géniale de Schumann , et quelle virtuosité incroyable chez ce soliste qui regarde constamment le ciel ...

[@IsabellePasche]

De plus en plus, mon violoncelliste préféré, remarquable à tous points de vue, et d'une grande fidélité au compositeur interprété .

[@pablopradera4465]

Sorprendentes transiciones entre movimientos con respecto a otras versiones, me ha encantado, Isserlis siempre me ha parecido un gran músico , y además me cae muy bien.

[@ChamberForMusic]

enorme....gracias!

[@Tennisisreallyfun]

Still one of the finest cellists I have seen in my lifetime, perhaps second only to Yo-Yo Ma. My first experience with him was in a trio with Joshua Bell on the violin and Jeremy Denk on the piano. Their performance of Shostakovich's 2nd will forever remain in my memory among sheer celebrations of cello virtuosity🤩

[@nainposteur55]

just wonderfull in all aspect. (I just figured out that the first cello is playing with baroque holding o_o his cello may have no endpin ?)

[@mumio3160]

omg yeah, i wonder why??? its not like its in baroque tuning

[@nainposteur55]

Maybe that he just feels better like this in his playing

[@debs4mysweetbaby]

​@nainposteur55 that is Steven's Cello, The Marquis de Corberon!! It's a 1726 Stradivari!!

The same generic hogwash, imitating himself.

[@kierancarter5639]

I know I shouldn’t give trolls like you the time of day but this really p*ssed me off today. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it; there’s no place for negativity in classical music, and about *the* Mr. Isserlis. 👋👋👋 bye

[@pablopradera4465]

Respect!!!.

[@WHCcccc]

@@pablopradera4465 no. I have zero respect for this.

[@pablopradera4465]

@@WHCcccc te lo diré en mi idioma y espero que lo traduzcas; se nota que no tienes ni puta idea de lo que hablas, te recomiendo más informacion, más educación y si, mucho más respeto!

[@WHCcccc]

@@pablopradera4465 right. Well, since you decided to swear at me, perhaps it is you who needs more education, information and respect. If only you knew who you were talking to 🤣
