Synopsis

Author of the critically acclaimed self-teaching method book, CELLO PLAYING FOR MUSIC LOVERS, Vera Jiji recounts in this memoir her tutelage as a young girl by cello master Janos Scholz, her journey as an amateur cellist, and the triumphs and challenges of her long and eventful life. A former English professor and mother of four, Vera's memoir vividly portrays her Hungarian immigrant family, her mother's fanciful dreams for her to become a child star and their relocation to a lost Los Angeles of the 1930s, summers at New York's Rockaway Beach, her loving but tragic first marriage to Howie, her long and beautiful marriage to second husband Latif, and her heartfelt and determined experiences through these decades as a passionate cellist.
