Professor Pressler begins this masterclass with a correction on tempo: it must be largo, much slower (he sings a fragment to show the tempo to the students). Then Professor Pressler corrects the pianist on fingerings and articulation in a specific phrase.
Once the performance of the whole movement is over, Professor Pressler focuses on the cello and on how to improve the sound of an interval leap in a final melody. He also gives indications about the way to play pizzicato in a certain passage.
