Guy Fishman explores the fascinating history of the viola da gamba with fellow H+H cellist Shirley Hunt. A cellist since the age of 9, Shirley picked up the viola da gamba in college as she developed an interest in period instrument performance. Revel in the wealth of knowledge of these two dynamic players as they discuss the challenges and joys of playing both cello and viola da gamba, sometimes both in the same performance, as Shirley does in Bach's St. Matthew Passion!
