That is a '62 re-issue that I have owned for about 30 years. It's a keeper.
In truth there are times I might use a pick if the tune needs that sound.. But I prefer to use thumb and two fingers.

How are you dpoing on the bass? Are the girls giving it a try?
I wish I were there to help them. Don't let them use a pick. It will handicap their development. God gave us ( most of us) five fingers on each hand. Learn to use them all. Picks are for wussies.

Have you given her any Bruno Giuranna? His Beethoven trios with Anne Sophie Mutter and Msistislav Rostropovich are incredible.

For various reasons I was just reading through this old thread. Just bought the Beethoven trios on itunes. We have a conservatory a couple of miles away. I love chamber music and so I'm delighted Adele just started with a new group. The violinist just bagged out so they're down to viola and cello. The cellist is good and the teacher plays violin so she can help. Apparently there are some duets for cello and viola.
