Hi, college cellist here! I've had the chance to perform some Puccini operas before including Gianni Schicchi; best of luck in your upcoming performances! Bit of an open-ended question, but I'm curious what you think of recent cultural/pedagogical developments in the classical world in light of recent events like the firing of Bill Preucil, James Levine, etc. are? As an aside, I'm also curious what you think of the recent movie Tár if you've seen it! Thank you for your time.
