When you're touring, it's somehow hard to focus on other things. I know other people can do it, but I really can't.

People tend to eat through the cello. They tend to take out the things that make it beautifully cello-y sometimes.

I've been making the recordings for a long time, and I have tons and tons of them. I'm like a digital hoarder or something - everything is on like hard drives and whatever.

I feel as though I can get an end result that works for me, but as far as recording techniques, I don't feel that confident in my abilities.
