Tram for Two with Sol Gabetta

In the tenth episode of «Tram for Two», Music Director Paavo Järvi and cellist Sol Gabetta travel through Zurich on tram no. 2. What changed for Sol Gabetta when she became a mother? What was Paavo Järvi's trick to prevent his children from having jet lag? Why did Sol Gabetta take an eight-and-a-half-hour journey every fortnight as a child - without a seatbelt? In addition, Paavo Järvi reveals what he thinks he has in common with Michael Jackson.

It's always nice to have someone equally knowledgeable in terms of repertoire to speak about the details and preparation. This is hardly discussed in higher education where I am because there aren't many who would educate properly, as there is a lack of awareness and demand for such knowledge. Watching Tram for two from far far away land is like going home for 10 minutes once in a while... A fan of Maestro Järvi and Maestro Gabetta! ❤

10 minutes of feeling your home - lovely 🥰

Thank you Mr Järvi for these videos. I really enjoy getting to know the players behind the music 🙂 Those who come here, like myself, already have an understanding of the music but not so much so of those who performs the music.

and it is exactly that what we try to achieve with this series ☺

This was an absolutely fascinating interview from which I learnt a lot! Sol talked about belonging to the three countries. The fact that everyone travels by public transport is an essential part of the Swiss cultural identity. And looking through the windows of the tram I think you got to the terminus of route 2 at Schlieren, but as you had not finished the conversation, so you stayed on the tram for its return journey..

She's a joy to listen to! Great video!

[@TonhalleOrchesterZurich]

the production was a lot of fun!

[@staffanolofsson8201]

A lovely way to interview great artists, on a tram!

[@Fan652w]

I strongly agree. But It could only happen in Switzerland where travelling on public transport is part of that country's cultural identity.

[@staffanolofsson8201]

@@Fan652w I am astonished: "where travelling on public transport is part of that country's cultural identity." I didnt know travelling on tram in Zurich was such a cultural experience!

Wise words about structure providing freedom - as in music, so in life! ❤ Sol Gabetta :)

Interesting, but I wish it was more musically focused. For example, what is the most engaging repretoire for a cellist. I think your channel followers are seeking deep musical knowledge (or at least I hope so). Thank you for all your amazing work!

I love this tram interview idea. Sol was interesting and charming. I would like to see an interview with Clara Andrada if possible. Should be interesting too. Best wishes from the US.

Happy Summer holidays of love for music happenings, visit Zurich, let it go on three months, let them young generations enjoy creative projects, I was watching the movie based on Jules Verne novel, The Mysterious Island, what about creating a park with giant creatures? Kids might have a lot of fun, giant spiders, insects, scorpions, octopus or jellyfish, put them to work for you, give everybody a reason to stay out, let them crowded urban areas go empty and dismantle a bit of pollution, put the music rule the world and let everybody enjoy imagination, go champs go for it, I am the biggest supporter of yours, watching happy musicians performing oh yezzzzzz, the dream of my life, big loving hug everybody out there 🎉❤🎉
