Song of the White Bird
General Fiction白鸟之歌
(western) Pablo Casals Et Al.
A musician is also a human being, and his attitude towards life is more important than his music. Casals, born in Spain in 1876, was a famous cellist and musician in the 20th century. He experienced two world wars in his life and spent the rest of his life in exile. He refused to go to Germany to play for the Nazis, and always used his only weapons - cello and baton - to prepare supplies for civilians trapped in the war. Facing the most difficult period of his life, Casals' music still stood with the people. Without Casals, perhaps we would not have stopped at Bach's famous unaccompanied cello suites. When he was fourteen years old, he accidentally discovered this set of classic works that had been forgotten by the world for nearly two hundred years in an old bookstore. He studied and practiced them for twelve years before performing them publicly. Casals said that in Bach's works, I saw the existence of God.
