Secret Biography: All is true! (part 2)

     "When they were kids (a hard childhood)"

     Sobre Gio, entrevistamos en Italia a la Srta. Fiorella Donadoni, una profesora que se acordaba de él:

    Recuerdo que una vez robó una pluma. No quería ponerle en evidencia. Los profesores sabemos cómo actuar, así que dije a la clase "Vamos a cerrar los ojos y el que haya tomado la pluma, que la devuelva". Mientras teníamos los ojos cerrados, devolvió la pluma,pero aprovechó la oportunidad para toquetear a todas las chicas. ¿Puedo decir "toquetear"?  

     Mientras tanto, en Detroit todavía vive el Sr. Torgman, primer y único profesor de violonchelo de Freddy:    

    No hay mucho que decir porque...  su manera de tocar era terrible. No sabía qué era la entonación. Movía el arco sin parar, rascando el instrumento de tal manera que volvía loco a cualquiera que lo oyera. No entendía el instrumento. Lo destrozaba. Pero le encantaba el violonchelo y creo que robaba para pagar las clases.

      About Gio, We interviewed Mrs. Fiorella Donadoni in Italy, a school teacher who remembers him:

      I remember one time, he stole a fountain pen. I didn’t want to embarrass him. So, you know teachers have a way of doing things. And so I said to the class "We will all close our eyes, and will the one who took the pen, please return it".
Well, while our eyes were closed, he returned the pen. But he took the opportunity f feeling all the girls! Can I say feel? 
                        

     Meanwhile, Mr. Torgman, Freddy’s first and only cello teacher, still lives in Detroit:

     Well, there isn’t really much tell, because...   his cello playing is just terrible. He would a... He had no idea about tone production. He would just saw it back and forth. Just scratch the instrument, to such a point that it would drive everyone who listening to it an absolutely insane. He had no conception of the instrument. He was blowing into it. But he loved his cello. And I think he stole to pay for his lessons.
