Wonderful playing by Anthony Bellino, currently a senior(?) at Northwestern finishing studies with Bob Sullivan. This was from summer 2013. Paul Merkelo coach and teacher at Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara, CA. Great to hear Merkelo play.

Some great information here.

It's always interesting to me... you never see students having trouble in these type of videos. Next to never do you tell a student to do something and they do it no problem on the next try. These pro masterclass videos often give a superficial example of what it is to learn... or to teach for that matter.

Great playing on both ends at any rate. Thanks for this!!
