Pablo Casals (29 December 1876 – 22 October 1973) was a world-renowned cellist.
High Strung
The acme of all cello feats
Is to master the Bach cello suites,
And Casals was supreme
As the cream of the cream,
The elitist of cello elites.

When out on the stage on his own
Communing with Bach, in the zone,
He knew there would be
No accompanist fee, —-
An advantage of playing alone.
