About this listen

Bernard takes the reader on an evocative and fascinating journey from his early life, detailing his ancestral influences on his chosen career of cellist, until the present day.

A charming book full of pathos and humor that tells the true story of the world-famous Lindsay String Quartet, their adventures during 40 years of world travel, and their achievements of the highest accolades, which made them one of the most revered quartets of the 20th century. Bernard continues, in his third section, to talk of his introduction to the Alpujarras in the Sierra Nevada of Southern Spain, the area he has chosen to live with his wife Theresa.

This book is both engaging and humorous while also giving a uniquely personal perspective into the life of one of the world's greatest quartet cellists. A must-listen for any fan of chamber music and in particular of the famed Lindsay String Quartet.
