EP 5 Bethany Beach Cellofest: Improve, Not Prove

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mercredi 1 juillet 2026 • Durée 12:53

In this special short episode of the Cello Museum Podcast, Dr. Brenda Neece is joined by her friend and colleague Erica Lessie for a behind-the-scenes conversation about the Bethany Beach Cellofest.

The Bethany Beach Cellofest is a supportive, non-competitive summer retreat for adult cellists. In this conversation, Brenda and Erica talk about why they created the Cellofest, why it takes place in Bethany Beach, Delaware, and the kind of experience they are building: serious cello study, time by the sea, and a welcoming community where participants can improve without having to prove themselves.

This episode explores:

The origins of the Bethany Beach Cellofest
The influence of Cellomania and Martha Gerschefski
Why the retreat is designed for adult learners
The “improve, not prove” philosophy
What participants can expect during the week
Classes on Bach’s First Cello Suite and Matz’s Lights and Shadows
Technique, ensemble playing, private lessons, and a masterclass
Wellness sessions on the beach
Building community through music

Bethany Beach Cellofest 2026 runs August 9–16 in Bethany Beach, Delaware. Faculty include Jennifer Kloetzel, Erica Lessie, and Dr. Brenda Neece.

House of Music: Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason on Motherhood, Music, and Family

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

vendredi 29 mai 2026 • Durée 38:27

“Find role models everywhere. It doesn’t have to be in the field that your child is going into. And make them very proud of what they’re doing and never, never allow them a sense that they can’t do anything.” — Dr. Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason

In this episode of the Cello Museum Podcast, Dr. Brenda Neece returns to a May 2021 Cello Book Club conversation with Dr. Kadiatu Kanneh-Mason, author of House of Music: Raising the Kanneh-Masons.

We originally chose this book for our May 2021 Cello Book Club in celebration of Mother’s Day in the United States. Returning to the conversation now, in May 2026, feels especially fitting as we once again mark a month devoted to honoring mothers and the often unseen work that helps young musicians grow.

Known around the world as the mother of the remarkable Kanneh-Mason musicians — including cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason and pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason — Dr. Kanneh-Mason offers a deeply human view of family life behind the performances.

This conversation explores motherhood, memory, practice, identity, representation, music education, and the delicate balance between guidance and freedom.

In this episode:

A reading from the epilogue of House of Music
Motherhood beyond the success story
Guidance, freedom, and “healthy neglect”
Practice as attention
Home, heritage, and belonging
Role models, representation, and opening doors
Music as a resource for life
The importance of music education
Motherhood, identity, and the work behind the music

Since this conversation was recorded, Dr. Kanneh-Mason has continued exploring many of these themes in her 2025 book To Be Young, Gifted and Black. Her son, cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason, has also written The Power of Music: How Music Connects Us All.

The Cellist’s Notebook: Kittie Lambton on Music, Memory, and Storytelling

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

jeudi 30 avril 2026 • Durée 42:23

In this third episode of the Cello Museum Podcast, we celebrate International Book Day with a special conversation drawn from our Cello Book Club.

Originally recorded in July 2021, this episode features author and cellist Kittie Lambton, who joined us from Greece to discuss her novella The Cellist’s Notebook—a story that weaves together music, memory, and family history across generations.

The episode opens with a reading from the book, in which a young girl discovers a hidden cello in her grandmother’s attic. What begins as a moment of curiosity leads to a deeper mystery rooted in the Second World War, and to a reflection on how music connects us across time.

In conversation, Lambton reflects on the inspiration behind the story, including her own family history and her lifelong relationship with the cello. Together, we explore the role of music in memory, the experience of learning an instrument, and the creative process behind writing in the novella form.

The discussion also turns to music education, community, and the importance of nurturing curiosity—particularly in young musicians.

At its heart, this episode is about the enduring magic of discovery: how a single encounter—with an instrument, a story, or a piece of music—can shape a life.

Composing The Great Experiment: Daniel DiMarino on Cello, Collaboration, Energy, and Voice

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

dimanche 29 mars 2026 • Durée 18:12

In this episode of the Cello Museum Podcast, composer Daniel DiMarino and cellist Dr. Jonathan Simmons take us inside the creation of "The Great Experiment," a newly commissioned work for cello and piano.

Framed as a “study of energy,” the piece evolved through collaboration, revision, and performance. DiMarino shares his compositional process—from first ideas to final form—along with the challenges of writing for cello and piano for the first time.

The conversation explores:

Writing for the cello: register, balance, and texture
Shaping musical form through energy and contrast
Collaboration between composer and performer
The meaning behind the title "The Great Experiment"
What defines an “American” musical sound
Influences from Copland, Kodály, Korngold, and film music
Accessibility and connecting with audiences

DiMarino also discusses his work in music production, church music, and cinematic composition, and how these experiences shape his musical voice.

At the heart of this conversation is a central idea:

“I’m not particularly interested in my ideas just being my ideas… I want something approachable.”

Recording the Bach Suites: Inbal Megiddo on Risk, Voice, and Freedom

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

vendredi 27 février 2026 • Durée 26:07

In this episode of the Cello Museum Podcast, Dr. Brenda Neece speaks with Dr. Inbal Megiddo about recording J. S. Bach’s Cello Suites — a project that demands not only technical mastery, but artistic courage.

Megiddo reflects on the long journey toward recording the six suites, including pandemic interruptions that led her to re-record the first three. The result, she explains, is not a definitive statement on Bach, but a deeply personal moment in an ongoing artistic life.

The conversation explores:

How the Bach Suites unfold as a journey through the stages of life
Aldo Parisot’s teaching philosophy and the search for an authentic voice
“Free, but in tempo” — freedom within pulse
Why new recordings of Bach still matter
Recording at Stella Maris in New Zealand
Creativity inspired by the natural beauty and frontier spirit of New Zealand
The role of silence, breath, and storytelling in performance
Advice for cellists studying the Bach suites
Experimenting with baroque bows, gut strings, and modern instruments
Pandemic-era music-making and the enduring power of the First Suite Prelude

Megiddo also discusses her forthcoming book on Aldo Parisot’s pedagogy, her upcoming album Forbidden Voices (featuring music by composers suppressed during the Holocaust), and a new recording of works by Clara and Robert Schumann.

At the heart of this conversation lies a bold artistic principle about finding one's one voice:

Nothing is sacred. Question everything. Take risks.
