Pablo Casals a Romantic Among Technicians
A tribute to Pablo Casals as a living anachronism who valued emotion over the printed note. The piece notes his Bach interpretation as romantic, his conducting style urging singers in phrasing, and his lifelong devotion to performance practice. It contrasts his expressive approach with modern literalism and highlights his influence on young cellists.
