PCA Cello Master Class with David Gee

Tuesday the PCA cello students had their first master class with guest artist David Gee. The kids are getting better acquainted with their pieces and are beginning to start the musicality phase of their pieces. I was very proud of their performances, and openness with Mr. Gee. I hope that the experience was a good one for them also. Thank-you Mr. Carrion for helping to make this happen.




David Gee, cello is a graduate of Yale University where he studied as an Ellen Battel Stoeckel Scholar. While at Yale, Mr. Gee taught as an assistant of the world-renowned pedagogue, Aldo Parisot. During his post-Yale years, Mr. Gee taught at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, The University of Memphis, Coastal Carolina University, The Ithaca Violoncello Institute, The Conservatory of Granada (Spain) and throughout Andalucia, Spain in chamber music master class settings. Mr. Gee was co-principal cellist with the Orquesta Sinfonica de Granada in Granada, Spain for
several years before returning to the U.S. where he is an active performer as recitalist, soloist and orchestral musician. Mr. Gee plays a 19th century cello made by Antonius Guadagnini on long-term loan from the Holm Foundation.
