Profile


PalMD is a practicing internist in the Great Lakes region of the U.S.. Aside from the great joy he finds in his family and his work, he likes communicating some of that joy to others. He has a special interest in the ways patients---and we are all patients at one time or another---are deceived by charlatans. He aims to change the world, one reader at a time. Previous writings can still be found here, and here. I also write twice a month for Science-Based Medicine

I credit my youngest sister for introducing me to these guys playing this piece, but it might have been my father. I've listened to several different musicians playing this, and none matches these two. None.

The vid starts in the middle, but it's still worth watching Rostropovich make the cello weep.

Rostropovich was a huge influence on Tomas Ulrich, a jazz cellist in NYC. You might find his work interesting. Clips on you tube. Of course.
