Hi Everyone,

Hope you're all having a great Friday. Here is our latest interview with Musical America's 2012 Musicians of the Year: David Finckel and Wu Han. Finckel has been the cellist of the Emerson Quartet since 1979, and together with his wife, they are the directors of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. Here, they talk about Chopin's Cello Sonata, the programming of new works at Lincoln Center, studying with Rostropovich and more.

As always, thank you all very much for reading smile
