Cello. Sweet...

Have a listen to this -- two minutes well worth spending.



I love Bach at the best of times, but when I'm feeling all stirred-up this stuff can make me cry.* Thanks, Maestro Rostropovich.

* Crying at Bach? Does that make me a big ole poof?

I usually associate J. S. Bach with the pipe organ. What a beautiful cello work performed in an equally magnificent location.

~~from another poof!

We Australians are real men. We don't cry. (except at the first 2 minutes of Rach 3 - you know the bit where it hangs for a little ral., and the end of Rach 2 and the last few seconds of "M. Butterfly" and the brass band during the credits of "Brassed Orf" and when some drops a bloody big rock on your fingers ...)
certainly not at Prelude III (Prelude I perhaps ...)
