Showing extraordinary talent at a young age, in his early teens Aaron was already a famous rock guitarist and singer/songwriter in the populated New York City neighborhood of his youth.

 Record box. Legato blues - David Johnstone plays assorted music for solo cello, reviewed by Patric Standford   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Well, that may be so, but the most recent of his (so far) three CDs, a solo recital made with the intention of giving the cello a voice in the popular, non-electronic, repertoire, doesn't do him too many favours.
It is true that his performance of Ten American Cello Etudes by Aaron Minsky demonstrates some very lively technical studies, but like his own arrangements (Joan Baez and the Beatles) and his four compositions, there is little of musical interest beyond the technique.

 A Brush With Immortality
Based on country music and blues rock, these pieces use string crossings and chords in a similar way to the American etudes and duets, but were hand tailored to actual high school students and can lead string players up to the level of the college and professional level music.
The idea behind the writing of music on all of these levels is that now cellists can play Minsky's popular style music from the first weeks of study until they perform as artists in the concert hall!
Adding to a small but important part of the cello repertoire, I also composed "Judaic Concert Suite" which is as yet unpublished.
