OMG the Cello is such a beautiful instrument and being played by such a beauty as well.

...and all from memory! Hearing swan Lake on VH has to be a first.

Makes a change for the neighbours also i.e. better than hearing the bed headboard thumping against the wall.

If Jules has the cellist as well I shall scream!

Perhaps a birthday treat for Jules?

Far ahead ... maybe something more intimate, personal, and meaningful between the two.
Remembering that it's Russian Christmas eve there.

I am probably alone here but I really enjoyed her playing. Possibly a first although I believe Nina played the piano (before I joined). More please.

Hardly alone Squish, and she plays very well, beside being quite lovely herself. And a decent sounding instrument to boot, despite the crap mics, if a bit overpowering for the room.

Haven't listened all the way through yet. but the first piece is Suite #1 in G for Cello, J.S. Bach. "An easy piece to learn to play, badly. A lifetime to master and truly play well". Can't remember if it was Casals, Rostropovich, or Yo Yo Ma who said that.  I've heard Ma play it in person and up close. He's sublime, she's certainly started into the learning to play it well phase.

First the Prelude, Allemande and the Courante. Then a bit of some other Bach I can recognize but not place. On to the Tchaikovsky. Now back to the Suite in G, Sarabande

[Folivora]

She used some songs and improvisation
