Default Hi MG I really enjoyed listen

Hi MG
I really enjoyed listening to the movements on Soundclick.Nice recordings.I donīt think that Yo Yo Ma would have any problems with the pizzicato double stops.I ,however.would like to see/hear her bowing the double-stops as well,and reaching out the notes on two adjacent strings in order to bow instead of " plucking".It will depend on the tuning of the cello of course.Did you use the standard or the alternative cello-tunings ?Also in the first movement, measure 51.there is a bowed triple-stop (F#2-Bb3-D4 )which keeps me puzzled ( I once,long time ago,took some cello lessons as well,besides "playing " violin,so cello is still my second interest besides the bass guitar ).Please tell me if I am getting too "nosy " about the cello parts.
BTW, I also have My Own sf,but a different audio set up of course.
Regards
Djim
