The nicest best cello player in the world...

Such sound yet obvious advice that most people are oblivious to, which is why most will never achieve mastery.

The guitar lacks the majesty, the physicality, the sensuality, the richness, the projection, the grandeur… but yes it’s nice in its own little prissy way, I guess.

Does the rubato style that nearly all cellists use on this piece bother other people, or is it just me? The music in this piece doesn't seem to lend itself to that radical an interpretation. Is there any evidence that rubato was the performance practice during Bach's time? I'm pretty sure the score is not notated that way. I've heard cellists such as Casals imbueing the piece with this rhythmic interpretation. So it seems to have become standardized at this point. This seems to be an affect of the Romantic period, not the Baroque. I would like to hear one good cello player play this piece without the ridiculous rubato for once. Who else is with me? Yo-yo?

This Prelude sounds a lot nicer on guitar, although it was written for cello.
