Casals Still Sharp at 80 With Plans and Memories
The celebrated cellist Pablo Casals, aged over 80, recounts a career full of dates from 1904 to 1894 scrapbook memories. He discusses a five year plan of projects, potential invitations from Poland, Russia and Czechoslovakia, and his peace message tours. He recalls a 1904 White House visit and his clash with public performance, preferring practice over public play. He lives on Isla Verde beach with his wife, displays mementoes from Japan and Switzerland, and notes his wish to return to Spain only if Franco guarantees no jail. He mentions a 1960s mountain accident and Gertrude Stein inviting him to view her art.
