Birth
[edit]That birth year of 1913 seems very unlikely. More like 1953, but I can't find concrete evidence. Eijkhout (talk) 03:19, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
First?
[edit]What is the source for this assertion that Uitti was the first person to combine singing with cello playing? This doesn't seem possible. Surely lots of cellists have vocalized while playing. How can we say that someone did this first?
