"Why do you want to learn the cello?"
When this question is posed to every cellist, the answers vary greatly.
They like the unique timbre of the cello.
They like its "depth" that sets it apart from other instruments.
They like the historically rich sound it imparts to music.
...
But without exception,
cellists will tell you
it's the love at first sight with classical music, a series of serendipitous resonances with the cello's soul...
In summary, either it's dressed up in extravagant tales or overflowing with artistic flair, making you exclaim that they truly deserve to be cellists.
However, the answer to this question
was different for the renowned cellist Bai Xi.
"Thought learning this would be cool, probably make others think anyone who plays the cello is awesome, so I learned it~"
This is what Bai Xi said with a smile during an interview with journalists.
Such a statement stunned everyone present.
