Wow. And thank you Geneva for bringing this back up. I'm a real music snob and was hesitant to even click on the link (I played in the symphony orchestra in college etc.) but this is an excellent performance and I am now a fan of bachtohealth. J.S. Bach's music I believe is the best and it touches us in very fundamental ways. My initials are also J.S. so I always say my name as if he's me lol. So thank you AF Dude, and Geneva, and obviously Dr. ER. I'll be queuing up more Dr. ER and J.S. Bach tonight for sure.

Wow indeed. An ER doc and also cello player. What gifted, talented hands. Thanks Dude for the link, and to this physician for bringing attention to arthritis. Below is the link to Dr. Roter's website, "Bachtohealth.org." An excerpt:

"The Bach to Health initiative was created by Eric Roter, M.D. (“E.R.”), a Board-Certified emergency room physician and Juilliard trained cellist to help raise money for top-rated health-care charities.

While a music student in NYC, Dr. Roter occasionally performed as a “street musician.” He never forgot the generosity of the thousands of passers-by who threw donations into an open instrument case.

After becoming a physician, Dr. Roter realized he could help far more people by combining his unique talents in medicine and music. He recreated his street-playing experiences by merging his recently recorded videos of J.S. Bach’s masterpiece “Cello Suites” with his own videos of Manhattan. Each of the 36 videos focuses on specific medical conditions he personally encounters in the emergency room and each is dedicated to a top-rated health-care charity to be used as a 24/7 “benefit concert” on the internet.

Music is the universal language and giving to charity is the noblest deed in the universe. Please visit each charity’s website and donate a dollar or two (or more if you can) to help them help others. Tell them you were sent from the “E.R.”

The cello is a beautiful instrument, a favorite of mine is Bach's Cello Suite No. 1:

Dr. Eric Roter is a very talented man. I would like to pin this to the top for a little while so everyone can see.
