Joseph Darcourt is an American-born Peruvian-Taiwanese cellist who has been honored by three US presidents. When he was 12 -- he debut at Carnegie Hall. And at 16 he began researching the power of music at Columbia University.

This program features Mr. Darcourt performing Bach's Cello Suite #1 in G Major. I caught up with Joseph a few weeks after the concert to talk about his music and scientific studies. Joseph todl me about how he started studying the cello when he was 10 and the two national competitions he won which led to a couple of performances at Carnegie Hall at 12 – and how that experience led him to study how music can be used for medical purposes.
